[RxPG] Chennai, March 29 - Computer giant IBM has declared the Coimbatore-based Amrita Deemed University and the Institute of Information Technology and Management -, Gwalior, as winners of 'The Great Mind Challenge 2006' at an awards ceremony in Chennai.

The award was being given for the second time in India. It also announced 'The Great Mind Challenge 2007' in collaboration with its business partners Wednesday.

The programme is committed to fostering 'in demand skill for an on demand world', the company said here.

The Great Mind Challenge is an outgrowth of IBM's Academic Initiative - a global model committed to evolving open standard-based IT skills.

Under the initiative, IBM partners closely with the local government and academia. The challenge provides an opportunity for student programmers to develop innovative solutions using open standard-based IT tools under gruelling real time situations.

Challenge 2007 will enable the participants a hands-on experience with IBM software products such as WAS/WAS CE, DB2/DB2c, WebSphere Portal and Forms, Tivoli and Rational and Eclipse, which is an open source on the Linux platform.

The company has successfully imparted training on open standards-based technologies to more than 80,000 students from 745 colleges across India during 2006 through the various AI programmes.

The 2006 challenge saw participation from over 700 colleges involving 21,000 students and 3,900 faculties from 24 states.
