It's a known fact that engineering graduates have a strategic and long]term impact on productivity growth in industry and service sectors [8]. IIT's have always tried to improve the quality of engineering education through distance learning, NPTEL videos, online courses, workshops and by providing continuous support to teachers and students of tier II & III type institutions. This had some limitations since engineering education needs hands on training/experience for theoretical aspects. With this quality of education can be maintained and students will have a platform to think upon and showcase their capabilities. So in order to bridge the quality gap in engineering education we are in need of a platform where ICT is effectively used by premier institutes of India to develop and train teachers and students of private and public sector engineering institution through a combined methodology of Project Based Learning which is completely online. We consider this was the motivation for IIT Bombay team which has provided a perfect solution to remove the gap of quality in education with their project- e-Yantra. e-Yantra (Engineering a better tomorrow) is a project of Department of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Bombay, sponsored by MHRD through National Mission on Education through ICT (NMEICT). Mission of e-Yantra is to Enabling Embedded systems education in engineering colleges across India in a scalable and sustainable manner. © 2016 IEEE.
