ACTIVITIES

Every year Gandhinagar Institute of Technology organizes Tech-Xtreme: A National level technical festival, at its lush green campus of GIT. It comprises of more than 50 events which are from the various fields including Engineering, Management, Pharmacy, Architecture, Computer Science and many more. Various competitions motivate the students to bring out their inner skills.The motive behind the TechFest is to demonstrate how technology can be imparted in society via various interesting ways. Since beginning this festival becomes proud moments for GIT where students show their technical abilities to prove how good it is and gets awarded and appreciated. Various competitions related to the Robotics, Dirt Rush GT (Robo- race Event) and Robo-puzzle are also major attractions in which robots perform tedious tasks. Search Spider (event based on Google hunt), Walk on Fire (event based on Laser light), Bomb Diffuser (based on Circuit Design Concepts), event based on theme of re-use of waste water, Pharma Recipe (Stereo Pharma Model competition), Corpoquiz (Business Quiz), Concourse De Design (Cad Competition) Computer Programming, Electronic Circuit designing, Design of suspension bridge, Pharma model making, Patent track, Open source software event, event based on design of Earthquake resistant structure and business plan competition are among a few of its major attractions.Cash prizes of more than Rs 1 lakh and Certificates are distributed to the winners in the grand valedictory. Workshops on different subjects and emerging topics have also been organized during these two days with a great support from the Industries for the participants to have latest know how in today’s industrial economy. It also helps them to expand their knowledge to industry level and standards and beyond that to make one’s life easier which is any engineer’s motto.

Every year The Annual Sports Meet is organized at the College Campus. Students and Faculties are at their harmony to organize panoramic activities related to sports events. Gandhinagar Institute of Technology has formed a “Sports Committee” for bringing out talent in students and giving them a platform to perform in sports events organized by college, other colleges and GTU which is helpful for overall development of students physically and mentally.

was established in 1905 with the founding principle to unite scientific and technical staff to perform free academic discussions, to dedicate themselves for the cause of prospering the science and technology for automotive vehicles and to make contributions to speed up the modernization of automotive industry.

An SAEINDIA Collegiate Club is the best gift a college management can give to its students of Mechanical Engineering Department. The society of automotive engineers at Gandhinagar Institute of Technology ventures to promote extensive engineering, designing skills and fabrication dedicated to create innovative solutions and advanced technologies in the field of Automobile An SAEINDIA Collegiate Club imparts a framework to the creativity and scientific thirst of students by providing avenues to students to solve engineering problems of real nature, learn to manage projects in a collaborative environment and keep themselves abreast with the latest in mobility engineering.

The team Renosters (of GIT) is under the guidance of proactive faculty advisors, with the support of Gandhinagar Institute of Technology in the form of complete laboratory/workshop facilities and technical assistance to design and fabricate All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV). The primary objective of the team was to learn the skills required for designing and fabricating an ATV that meets the legislation, safe, comfortable, inexpensive and aesthetically appealing. Team Renosters, comprising 21 members, participated in the off road vehicle collegiate event “Baja Student India” of Delta Inc. Baja Student India is a national level undergraduate engineering event wherein the students are expected to replicate a real-life scenario Design, Analyze & Fabricate a single seater, 4 wheeled All-Terrain Vehicle which was then raced in the specially created track near National Institute of Technology (NIT), Jamshedpur. Team qualified in the event with their quiz competition (second phase) in August 2014 from a crowd of 66 teams from all over India, receiving the go-ahead to fabricate the model of the same with 6th rank position overall. The main event was held at National Institute of Technology (NIT), Jamshedpur schedule from 7th to 11th January, 2015. Student teams are judged based on Static events, written technical test, presentations and design evaluations, ergonomics, functionality, and productivity of their ATV; and also the dynamic events like acceleration, braking, hill climbs, chain pulls, maneuverability, and a gruesome 4 hour endurance race in the final event. GIT secured 20th position among 42 teams at National Level.

The Mechanical engineering department’s students have already started development and training for the next year’s BAJA SAEINDIA ATV competition which is going to be held at Chandigarh in July 2015.

The entrepreneurship cell is a non profit organisation run by students of Gandhinagar Institute of Technology that aims at manifesting the talent and entrepreneurial spirit of young students. We at E-Cell host various workshops, speaker sessions, innovative games, competition for aspiring entrepreneurs and support them by providing necessary resources such a seed funding, consultancy, monitoring and networking. E-Cell has also been awarded the prestigious award of I-Scale by GTU

GIT MWTC (Mobile & Wireless Technology Club) is engaged and promoting many more projects and activities related with the field of Wireless Communications, Mobile Computing, Web Content Development, Android Applications Development etc. Recently “GIT App” was developed & launched by the final year students of Computer Engineering which provides all the useful information related to Gandhinagar Institute of Technology. One more application that provides detailed Weather Information has also been developed. Two days’ Workshop on Android Application Development has also been organized and a great number of students from EC/CE/IT branch participate in the workshop. Several informative sessions, Talk shows, and project related with website development, cloud computing, etc. are also in the pipeline. MWTC @ GIT works actively with Mobile Monday Club.

Women Safety Security Day for women has been celebrated at GIT under Surksha Setu Society. A training was organized on 7th October 2014 at Police headquarters, Shahibaug by Surksha Setu Society. In this session girls were given all materials for organizing the program such as banner of 1091 Police Heart, pamphlets of 1091, IPC laws, momento, t-shirt, bands, cap etc. In training session they had shown some videos related to the program which focused on awareness about the laws and services which have been made for females by Indian government so that they can take immediate action against any incident. On 9th October 2014 the program was conducted at GIT where around 75 girls and 10 female faculty members had attended it. Motive of this program was to aware female students and faculties of the college about various laws, services from the police, rights against women crime and emergency self-defense techniques and from then this program takes part in equal duration for women empowerment and safety.
