Vignana Bharathi Institute of Technology has carved a niche for itself in imparting value based technical education. As part of its lofty motive of kindling the scientific temper among the students it launches a series of tech fests sometimes exclusively for the first year engineering students to tap their potential. The college has a unique distinction of conducting such events under the IEEE banner. AVISHKAR is one such event hosted for students which showcases their interest in a series of tech related topics ranging from blue ray disc to computer driven cars. Avishkar the name itself declares its meaning loud and clear, the tag being “Engineering Inventions”. The main objective is to bring the first year students out of the shell and provide them with a firsthand experience in facing the competition outside. VBIT is the only college in the whole of Asia-Pacific (R10) region, under IEEE to host this event exclusively for the first years. This fest gives way to interesting and innovative ideas that are budding inside a new techie. The goal is to provide a platform to exhibit paper presentation which showcases their updates with technology along with their presentation and communication skills.
