The 3rd convocation of KL University was held on 28th December 2013 in which 1652 students of Seven B.Tech courses of the University, 131 students of M.Tech courses, 77 students of MBA and 14 students of MCA were awarded gradua-tion certificates. 20 Gold Medals and 20 Silver medals were presented to students. Out of the 1652 B.Tech students, 263 are from the Computer Science and Engineering stream, 451 from Electronics and Communica-tion Engineering, 316 from Electrical & Electron-ics Engineering, 351 from Mechanical Engineer-ing, 125 from Electronics and Computer Engi-neering and 44 from Bio Technology. The chief guest of the programme was Prof. Uday.B.Desai, who is the Director of IIT Hyderabad.

Addressing of Prof. Uday .B.Desai Addressing the gathering, Director of IIT, Hyderabad, Prof. Uday.B.Desai has called upon the students to be innovative to achieve high positions in the society. He said knowledge was a precious treasure which cannot be robbed by anybody. A great life was awaiting the students outside the campus, he said. “We are living in the age of innovations,” Prof. Desai said and felt that there was hardly anyone who was untouched by the technological innovations, business process innovations and lifestyle innova-tions in the present technology era. He suggested to the students to invent products which would provide universal recognition to the country. He said a curious and questioning mind, fertile imagination, daydreaming, outland-

ish ideas, perseverance and the spirit of ‘why not’ were helpful for innovative inventions. Prof. Desai said that an inventor needs to observe a plethora of problems and opined that India is the best place for innovators as there are so many challenges to be tackled in power generation, power torage, power distribution, water harnessing/storage, water shortage, vaccine for diseases, low-cost roadways and swift access between rural and urban areas. He said that innovations should be useful to all. Recalling the words of former President APJ Abdul Kalam, he said, “We need to work on innovations that will provide urban amenities to rural India.” He said students should become job creators and not just job-seekers after completion of studies. Young innovative entrepreneurs are not only innovators but also the agents of social change in the society.

Nanotechnology encompasses a broad range of tools, techniques, and applications and is widely perceived as one of the most significant technolo-gies of the 21st century. Engineered nano materi-als are manufactured materials with a structure between approximately 1 nm and 100 nm. Their unique physicochemical (e.g. size, shape) and surface (e.g. reactivity, conductivity) properties contribute to technological break thoughts that enable new and improved technical solutions to problems that have been changeling to solve with conventional technologies. Nanotechnology is being applied to many areas (e.g., medicine, alternate energy, agriculture ) but from a human development perspective water purification ,sustainable agriculture industry include crop cultivation , water management, fertilizer applica-tion , pest management, harvesting, post- harvest handling, transport of food products, packaging , food preservation, food processing, food safety

and food storage has been identified as a high priority. Water treatment devices that incorporate nano scale materials are already available, and human development needs for clean water are pressing. In this context given the interest in the issue of water purification, food processing , alter-nate renewable energy , nano medicine drug delivery and synthetic materials for catalysts, this seminar explores the scale and significance of Nano science and Technology applications for sustainable rural India and other developing coun-tries , the broad array of challenges associated with improving access to water , and the possible opportunities and challenges in nanotechnology to address in the seminar.
