The Ministry of Human Resource Development has recently constituted Institution’s Innovation Council (IIC), launched on 21st November 2018 by Hon’ble Minister Shri. Prakash Javadekar, to systematically foster the culture of Innovation in educational institutions. This initiative will enable the college to encourage, inspire and nurture young students by supporting their new ideas and transforming into prototypes which enables them to initiate start-ups.

Working together with IIC, Panimalar Engineering College is demonstrating its dedication to provide students unmatched chances for personal and professional development. The institution, in collaboration with IIC, makes sure that students are not only academically prepared but also skilled at addressing real-world problems with resilience and creativity through a variety of events, workshops, and seminars. These carefully planned events, which are a collaboration between the college and IIC, operate as testing grounds for the integration of theory and practice. They give students the chance to network with business owners, industry professionals, and experts who are willing to share their knowledge, wisdom, and helpful advice. With this practical approach to education, students are guaranteed to graduate with a comprehensive skill set that equips them to meet the demands of the working world.

Since 2019, the college has consistently climbed the ladder of success, securing notable star rating in IIC Annual Performance. The Council conducts the following activities.

• YUKTHI – Young India with Knowledge, Technology and Innovation
• INNOVATION AMBASSADOR
• IMPACT LECTURE SERIES
• SELF DRIVEN ACTIVITIES
• SMART INDIA HACKATHON
In 2023, the college achieved Four Stars Rating from IIC as in continuous pursuit of excellence in collaboration with IIC.
This remarkable journey illustrates not only the impact of the IIC collaboration but also Panimalar Engineering College's steadfast dedication to providing a transformative educational experience.
