The first is the domain of ‘skill’, Sadhan. These and skilled professionals to serve the society and the nation at large. are those design skills and design tools that should help students MAEER believes that the union of Science and Spirituality alone SADHAN to communicate convincingly, the outcome of every stage of the will bring Harmony and Peace to The Humanity, as said by Swami design process. For this, they will learn to employ all necessary Vivekananda. The vision of the founders of MAEER is to create a media and materials. If one has to look for a concept from the Indian centre of Excellence in the field of Education and Research. Since philosophy that has equivalence with this domain that would be the its inception, MAEER has been striving for the betterment of the concept of SADHAN. society through a value based education system. With over 50,000 students across various disciplines under its umbrella, it has achieved The second is the domain of ‘knowledge’, Sadhana. It pertains to tremendous success in a short span of time and provides excellence in the knowledge base the students must acquire from subject areas the fields of Engineering, Medicine, Research, Management, Primary of varying nature. From this base should flow, meticulously gathered and Secondary Education, Peace Studies, Environment, Pollution SADHANA and researched information needed during the entire problem Control and towards promoting Human Values and in attaining the solving process. Again, an equivalent concept from the Indian ultimate goal of World Peace. The motto of MAEER is, “To harness the philosophy to represent this domain would be SADHANA. knowledge of Science and Technology for the welfare of society “. It is the third domain of ‘formation’ that becomes the vital core of the design process, Sadhya. The total and composite learning from this domain is meant to make students think laterally and SADHYA innovatively, develop design concepts and translate these concepts into a tangible form which in fact is the very solution of the stated problem of design. This equivalent concept from the Indian philosophy, obviously, is SADHYA. MAEER aims to provide the finest environment for teaching, Modern design has been singled out as to provide a human learning, research, innovation and character building. face to technology. It is to this end that one of the silver linings, the ‘soft’ technology of the Twenty First Century Dr. Vishwanath D. Karad offers, becomes relevant. Founder & Managing Trustee Prof. H Kumar Vyas Founder Chairman, Education Council HABITAT n pursuance of one of our future aspirations, we at the MAEER’s It is into this kind of stimulating and inspirational The team thus formed would be led by a member of MIT Institute of Design are now planning to add a further dimension environment that mentors from various design the permanent faculty of the Institute. Sometimes the to the programmes of design learning at our campus. The concept related disciplines would be invited to interact with project might be so designed as to the participation of of Design Habitat is in fact a logical and organic extension of our the design learners and challenge their young minds mentors from more than one discipline if needed. The Istated philosophy that ensures a total generalist ambience to enable to explore newer territories that should complement enhanced scope of activities at the Design Habitat design learning. It would evolve as an overarching concept around and reinforce their ongoing design learning. Here are would also mean that we reinforce, within the present the functional framework of the Design Institute which remains an some of the disciplines from which these mentors areas of learning at the Institute. To this effect, integral component of the Habitat. would be selected: biomechanics, alternative two new centers of advanced learning are being energy systems, linguistics (semiotics), performing envisaged for the near future. The first is the Faculty arts, plastic arts, design anthropology, sociology, of Architecture. The major emphasis here would be on perception and cognitive psychologies and several humane and logical application of twenty first century more. The mentors would ensure that the level of technologies, arts and sciences toward solving the interaction is such that it eventually leads to a learning problems of human habitat in India. The second is a that is comprehensive, sustained and focused in Centre for Theatre and Body Language. Even though depth, and directly or indirectly design related. it might seem to have been inspired by the Bauhaus Distributing the course contents in form of projects Theatre of the 1930’s, its major thrust would be on is an obvious and time tested method. Each project exploring the worlds of light and sound effects and would be formulated so as to necessitate participation ways of communication by means of body language. of a mentor and one or two young aspirants pursuing the same discipline as the participating mentor. 04 Dr. Sunil Karad was awarded the Research Excellence Management, Fire Safety Engineering Award from the University. and The Vishwashanti Gurukul IB World Executive Director, His academic merits brought him loads School. of prestigious work offers in the UK He received the visiting Post Doctoral those including the British Aerospace research Fellowship of the University MAEER’S MIT but he preferred to return to his own of Sheffield in 2001 and he served the country and contribute to the society.
