The TCOEs, set up in Public Private Partnership (PPP) mode, are an excellent example of the Government, the Academia and the Industry working together for the sustained growth and progress of the country.

The TCOEs have adopted a two tier organization structure consisting of a central Governing Council for strategic decision making and local Core Groups, with full autonomy, for managing TCOEs’ affairs.

Governing Council:  

Formed under the chairmanship of Secretary, DoT, it has heads of the seven principal sponsoring organizations and seven academic Institutes and senior Government officials as members. It is the apex decision making body for the TCOEs. The Coordination Centre of TCOEs functions as the facilitator  for the Governing Council.

Core groups:

Each TCOE has a local Core Group (also known as Steering Committee or Board). The Core Group, with Institute Director as Chairman and Industry sponsor as Co-chairman, has representatives drawn from the Academia, Industry and the Government.
