A quick short on What is ProtoSem?
ProtoSem is a 20 Week full semester course offered by Forge in partnership with industries to solve real-world problems by applying deep technology solutions for developing prototypes in an integrated lab ecosystem (HWjunction), thus imparting skills and competency for the innovators.
The program is offered for the final year, pre-fill year students, and also for graduates who want to up-skill themself in Innovation and Technology Domains
What would you like to do after your graduation?
The pathways after graduation are chosen by few even during the college days while some figure it out through further more exploration. Let us discuss in short brief Why ProtoSem is best for you if you ticked one of the option listed above.
I want to be employed :
The employment and recruitment market has seen a tremendous change after the post COVID time where corporate and startups are looking at various modes of hiring talent. Its never the same campus placements or walk-in interviews any more. Interviews have gone online and very little time is spent on assessing key strengths the candidates and hands-on experience. ProtoSem put a lot of emphasis on applied learning through hands-on experimentation by rapid prototyping.
During 20 Weeks you learn from Industry Experts, work on problem statement from a startup and build their prototype which stands as a proof work that can be shown to the future employer and get hired in minutes. The best part is Why not join the startup you worked for during ProtoSem? That is a win even before you graduate and ProtoSem makes it possible
I wanna be an Entrepreneur:
The sweet deal done right. Have a problem to solve, come to ProtoSem, up-skill yourself in Tools and Technology that is required to run your startup and build your prototype. Deploy it to prove the value proposition, win a pilot customer trial, apply for a grant and get incubated. The path way to entrepreneurship is made possible by de-risking the chances of failure in ProtoSem by offering right mentor-ship and access to resources that makes the dream come true.
You also get a bonus not in term of incubation or investment, You can be part of our other programs that offer best opportunity for Startup Founders to get their Post Graduate Degree while doing their startup through our MBA-IEV program offered in partnership with Kumaraguru Institutions.
I wanna fly high abroad :
The alumni network of ProtoSem has spanned across 3 Continents with Innovation Engineers being admitted into some of the top universities in US, Europe & Australia. Let me breakdown the fact how they earned the seat apart from good GRE Grades.
During ProtoSem you work on a problem statement with rigor, achieve the goals, technical outcomes, innovation outcomes and finally get it deployed on the field. This process completes the prototype development lifecycle with validation by deployment in the field. This stands as the gem on the crown while writing your Statement of Purpose. You have something to showcase and be proud of during your selection interview. Bonus part, How about being appreciated and offered Letter of Recommendation from the CEOs, Experts & people whom you worked with. Its adds authenticity to your profile and strengthens your proof of work. Now you are one of the unique applicant to the university with experience which they might not miss at all.
If you are still exploring to find your interest or identify what you are capable off, don't worry about being left out. 20 Weeks in ProtoSem is a journey of self realization of potential and its could be your first step towards definition of success. We all start at some point and yours could be in ProtoSem.
