OPPORTUNITY - DISRUPTIVE INNOVATION
In the late 19th century, three innovation platforms (telephone, automobile and electricity) evolved around the same time and changed the way the world worked - Productivity exploded and costs dropped, unleashing demand across many sectors. Today, the global economy is undergoing the largest technological transformation in history thanks to at least five innovation platforms evolving at the same time, including Energy Storage, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Genome Sequencing and Block-chain Technology. In addition, multiple disruptive technologies are also evolving rapidly, including 3D Printing, 5G, Autonomous and Electric Vehicles (AV/EV), Cloud, Fin-tech, Solar and Space Exploration. These technologies are now enabling services which are fundamentally changing the way the world works! For example, gasoline engines will go the way of the horse and carriage, paper-based cash will become obsolete, AV-based shared networks will make private cars ownership superfluous and robots will build new cities on Mars! Welcome to the future of disruptive innovation.
MEETING THE CHALLENGE
⮚ STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) education offers students extraordinary career opportunities in this era of disruptive innovation globally
⮚ However, the lack of access to STEM resources in schools impacts students from different backgrounds disproportionately
⮚ LTC Programs aim to empower and inspire students of all backgrounds to pursue these opportunities globally
LTC Vision, Mission & Objectives
VISION
The Loyola Technology Center for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) will be a dynamic and nurturing space which brings world-class STEM in-school programs and after school workshops to students. Our vision is to
- Engage students and foster their curiosity and learning through exploratory projects
- Enable students to explore STEM interests through workshops with world-class experts
- Meet students at their individual learning abilities, and nurture independent thinking, creativity, and innovation.
- Motivate and curate learning experiences for students across all our communities
- Raise awareness and facilitate STEM education across India
MISSION
Our mission is to :
- Encourage the holistic growth of a student in academics and beyond.
- Develop independent, inquisitive, and life-long learners, who pursue rewarding STEM research and careers
- Foster peer learning, mentoring and a spirit of giving, so our students become outstanding global citizens, and help their peers and the less privileged, in their local communities and across the world.
OBJECTIVES
Our Objectives at St. Joseph's Boys High School
- Develop co-curricular STEM programs for school clubs, after school workshops and weekend seminars
- Prepare students to participate in regional and global STEM competitions
- Sponsor mentoring programs for parents, alumni and student leaders to mentor students
- Engage local corporation to support STEM education in schools through on-site visits, shadowing and student internships
- Make LTC facilities available to other local school students and later to schools globally
- Elevate SJBHS’ profile as a pioneer in India for STEM education
Engineering Outcomes
“Hands-on” STEM Workshop
Elevate outcomes through in-school and after-school co-curricular “hands-on” STEM Workshops which have demonstrably improved student’s understanding and school grades in Math and Science classes
- Create and bring to life world-class co-curricular enrichment programs
- Provide real-life connections
- Support development of life-skills
- Motivate students to achieve and fulfil their potential
