Soaring dreams: the fest season

Soaring dreams: the fest season

As the fest season engulfs the students all across Delhi and other parts of India, Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology gears up for its the Annual Techno-management festival AVENSIS 2K12. The motto remains the same—knowledge with a touch of creativity.

Brimming with exuberance after the success of Avensis 2K11, the team and the students this year have just a one point objective in mind: to make it the most decorated fest of Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University. Making it bigger with good marketing of the events and decent sponsorship is the secondary objective, the primary vision of M.S.I.T has always been to bring about creativity in all their endeavours, by introducing new events and concepts and this year won’t be an exception.

                                             

Derived from a Latin word, Avensis was chosen as the scientific name for the skylark - the male bird of which flies very high, reaching apparently, to the heavens. Allying our unceasing efforts to be reliable and responsible with the objective of accomplishing the peak in Science and Technology thereby providing a platform for the budding minds of India to help them showcase their stupendous talents.

 Being a coordinator in the flagship Robotics event: CARNAGE, I could see the excitement and the aura the fest has. It does not only serve as a dias to watch your talent come to the fore, but also helps to inculcate holistic development of a student through team work and resource management. Last year saw events like ‘Bluffmaster’ making its debut, with the robotic events also underwent more challenging tracks and treacherous terrains, this year we plan to take it a notch higher. All the 33 events of the fest were a treat in itself and surely it felt proud to be a part of the organizing team.

The spirit of healthy competition is what Avensis seeks to inspire amongst its participants. Theoretical knowledge is essential for a sound technical knowledge base, but its application adds another dimension to a budding engineer’s repertoire. And what better way than two fun-filled, interactive and exciting days with a variety of events that test the student in all the relevant departments!

                                      

The students are encouraged to use their talents to the fullest, in a creative, open, and holistic environment. The organizational team strives to ensure fair play and just treatment of all those participating, and the aim is to keep the processes involved as transparent as possible. This year, the team hopes to carry on with the good work and take the event to a brilliantly higher level, with the help of the teachers, sponsors and everyone else involved.

The dates of the fests are tentatively determined to be the 23^rd -24^th  March, 2012, the team has already started working on it to ameliorate on any of the flaws that remained last year.We are all working to make it the best techno- management fest for all you guys.
