The launch ceremony was graced by Union Minister for Science and Technology Dr. Jitendra Singh, creating a very important event for future-oriented education at Parul University. Lakshya 2047 includes a wide array of industrial labs that aim to provide students with an opportunity for practical training within futuristic fields. Labs such as NVIDIA Lab provide training in the areas of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and GPU computing, while Cisco Lab focuses on providing knowledge about cybersecurity, networking, and digital infrastructure. Moreover, ABB Industrial Automation & Robotics Labs provide hands-on learning in relation to Industry 4.0 technologies via robotics and automation tools. The hands-on learning approach is complemented by labs like AR/VR Lab that provide virtual experiences, while the Microsoft Lab focuses on fostering effective communication skills. Furthermore, all technology labs like AWS, Apple, Adobe, Autodesk, ANSYS, and VLSI Labs, are set to offer global standards and have been made available to the students to develop their skills in these areas. Students will also gain knowledge about cloud computing, iOS programming, digital designs, semiconductor devices, engineering simulations, etc., through creative experimentation at these labs. The addition of the AICTE & AVPL/IDEA Lab Zone creates another layer to the ecosystem, as it is a specialized zone for innovation and prototype development. Whilst the research-oriented labs, such as the Mind Lab, Sensor Lab, and Special Integrated Facilities IDEA Lab, with support from AICTE, also add value to the research and innovation environment at the university.
