Feedbacks
It was great learning there at ITT. The practical exposure of machines and different testing made my concepts clear. The environment of the institute was very cooperative and that really added positivity in my behaviour and new skills in my CV. Thank you ITT team.

I have undertaken study of cut resistant gloves and learnt from the basics i.e; from fibre to the end product. Its testing analysis and product, everything was done in-house. My involvement at each stage, reinforced my theoretical knowledge with practical situation.
