The Loyola-ICAM College of Engineering and Technology (LICET) is a private Catholic engineering and technology school run by the Society of Jesus in Chennai, India. It is approved by AICTE and affiliated with Anna University, Chennai. It is a Christian Minority college, founded in 2010 by the Jesuits as part of the Chennai Jesuit Mission's efforts to empower the Dalits, the poor, and the marginalized.

History

[edit]

In April 2009, Loyola College, Chennai, founded in 1925, and the Jesuit Institut Catholique d’Arts et Métiers, founded in 1898 in Lille, France, entered a joint venture to found an engineering college in Chennai which would prepare Indian students to work in European industries and European students to work in Indian industries. Pursuant to this agreement, the Jesuits of Madurai Province founded Loyola-ICAM engineering college at the Loyola College campus in 2010.[1] It was officially inaugurated by Kalaignar M. Karunanidhi on 27 October 2010.[2] Based on principles of the Jesuit Ratio Studiorum with its humanistic emphasis, the study program aims at comprehensive personal development and at the ability to work as a team, develop communication skills, appreciate cultures, and be sensitive to ethical and social issues.[3] In July, 2024 LICET became an autonomous college within less than 14 years of its prestigious existence. It continues to be an affiliated college of the Anna University and is autonomous in the sense that it is free to frame its own courses of studies and to adopt innovative methods of teaching and evaluation.

Academics

[edit]

The college offers courses at undergraduate levels (Bachelors) in engineering and technology, including Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, Information Technology and [Artificial Intelligence and Date Science]].[4] In 2015–16, the sanctioned intake was 60/course, but 120 for Mechanical Engineering. [5] Further from 2023, the re-sanctioned intake was 60/course, while keeping 120 for Computer Science Engineering.

One aspect of Loyola College's affiliation with the Catholic Institute of Arts & Business (ICAM) in Lille, France, is the Master of Engineering degree for which Loyola-ICAM students may study for two years in France, after finishing their Bachelor studies in India. Students at Lille, in turn, can spend their fifth year of studies for the Master of Engineering in India.[6]
