In this episode, I will explore the concept of sense of purpose, in the context of university education. I will focus more on this thought from my personal point of view, as a professor at one of India’s leading engineering institutes, IIT Bombay, where I teach and mentor undergraduate and postgraduate students in electrical engineering, as a researcher where I carry out research and develop many cutting edge technologies in our labs, and as a new entrepreneur trying to take some of our innovations to market through our startup, Nirixense Technologies.
