MoUs

New Horizon College of Engineering (NHCE) believes that strong partnerships with industry, academia, research organisations, government agencies, and professional bodies are essential for delivering quality education and creating future-ready professionals. To strengthen these relationships, the institution actively enters into Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with leading national and international organisations that share a common vision of academic excellence, innovation, research, and skill development. 

The MoUs serve as a strategic framework for long-term collaboration, enabling NHCE to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry expectations. These partnerships facilitate knowledge exchange, promote experiential learning, and provide students and faculty with access to the latest technologies, industry practices, and research opportunities. 

Through its Industry Institute Interaction Cell (IIIC), NHCE continuously expands its network of collaborative partners across diverse sectors, including Information Technology, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Cybersecurity, Cloud Computing, Electronics, Mechanical Engineering, Management, Manufacturing, Automation, Semiconductor Technologies, Healthcare, and emerging technologies.
