Emerging markets and corporate houses need more technical graduates and moreover India’s Higher education system contributes huge number of technical graduates but it is difficult to make them employable .Therefore an effort has to be made to address the direct needs of the corporate sector by having Academia Industry interface. Academia- Industry Interface could be defined as interactive and collaborative arrangement between academic institutions and business corporations for the achievement of certain interchangeable inclusive goals and objectives. Universities and industry, which for long have been operating in separate domains, are rapidly inching closer to each other to create synergies. The constantly changing in new technology paradigms, in response to growing perplexity of the business environment today have necessitated these two to come closer. Higher education institutions not only contribute skilled human resources to technological world, but also in various intangible ways. This paper explores the various techniques to bridge the gap between the academics and Industry so as to enhance the quality in technical education education. Moreover an attempt is made to explore how technical education enhance knowledge sharing using ICT tools can work closely with industry, study the dimensions of academia-industry partnership, and identify possible areas where industry’s contribution to academia would be most effective.
