As a part of its flagship CSR program Samsung Innovation Campus, Samsung India has concluded its first batch of its coding, programming and IoT courses in New Delhi, India. The new program, according to the company, reiterates the company’s commitment to being a strong partner of India and working alongside the government to empower the country’s youth and Digital India initiative.
Students, who were mentored and trained at National Small Industries Corporation (NSIC), New Delhi were presented with certificates at a ceremony held on Friday.
ESSCI, which is a National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) approved entity, is executing the program through its nationwide network of approved training and education partners.
The coding and programming course for students were conducted for 3-days in which they developed codes based on problem statements given to them.
The problem statements included topics such as developing citizen feedback on road maintenance, creating a knowledge management portal, automation of reforestation efforts, a GST calculator, chat support for e-governance and an early warning system for farmers to protect crops from pests. The teams presented their prototypes to a jury consisting of engineers from Samsung R&D Institute, Noida and Samsung R&D Institute, Delhi.
