Industry & Academia Council

Building future-ready talent together.

Council Purpose

The Industry & Academia Council brings industry, academia and government closer together to build a future-ready talent ecosystem – strengthening faculty capability, modernising curricula, deepening industry engagement and improving graduate employability.

Council Co-chairs

Three pillars

01 | FACULTY EXCELLENCE

Build a future-ready faculty ecosystem through stronger development pathways, communities of practice and learning approaches.

02 | INDUSTRY COLLABORATION

Strengthen industry participation through Project Drona, an industry-aligned curriculum framework, mentors and capstone projects.

03 | THOUGHT LEADERSHIP

Position HYSEA as a trusted knowledge partner through skills-gap research, future-skills reports and a podcast/webinar series.

Why participate?

The talent pipeline is an industry-wide responsibility. The council gives industry leaders an opportunity to influence how future talent is developed – while bringing real-world industry needs into academia.

Help shape the talent the industry will depend on next.
