Nearly 250 engineering colleges across the state will soon have the opportunity to interact with some of the best teachers. The reason: Uttar Pradesh Technical University (UPTU) is setting up a virtual classroom hub at its Noida centre, which will beam quality-teaching programmes to 12 select institutes of the state.

These nodal centres will then offer the facility of virtual classrooms to nearly 25 colleges located in their vicinity.

The twelve nodal centres will be set up at Harcourt Butler Technological Institute (HBTI), Kanpur; Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow among a host of others (see box).

The students at the nodal centres, sitting in their virtual classrooms equipped with plasma screens and computers, will also be able to interact with the teachers using video conferencing.
