BE WITH ENGINEERING

The ‘Be With Engineering’ Programme was initiated with the prospect of providing resources and guidance to the students with the intention of converting their ideas into prototype which was carefully crafted by young, enthusiastic and highly creative minds. Students from different schools and PU colleges came together, shared their knowledge and helped each other in completing their projects. The first year engineering students mentored the participants and helped them find a solution. Therefore, it was more of fun along with learning. This event also helped the students of Sahyadri to bring up a teacher within themselves by sparing their time and efforts to mentor the budding innovators. The outcome of this event was a huge participation of 250 students who came up with 100 projects. They built and displayed their project prototypes in the campus in a short span of just two days. Not just building the models, but they also learnt the entire flow of converting their ideas into prototype
