Panipat, Haryana: As we all know that to abridge the digital gaps in the country, Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi came out with a world level innovative idea ‘Hackathon’, which serves as a platform to take up smart challenges by the young aspirants. This programme is aimed at putting governance within everyone’s reach. The first Hackathon 2017 was an encouraging experience, an inter-institutional inclusive innovation which set the ball rolling for new digital disruption scenario.

After the initial success of this American model of digital India, this marathon has now been joined by more than 45 Union Ministers and at least 18 state governors.

It is matter of pride for Panipat Institute of Engineering Technology, who secured 2nd ranking in Hackathon 2K17, having been chosen as one of the five nodal centre for The Hackathon 2K18 across the country.

The teaching is not just limited to class room lectures. The learning is further substantiated with guest lectures, international seminars, projects and so much more to help students learn the practical part of their respective streams.

This methodology helps them to come up with new ideas as well testing principles of perfecting engineering because engineering is not just assembling the parts in a way to make them work together. Engineering is like grasping the bull by the horns, trying to cope up with hopes high which means it is not just to deal with troubleshooting. So you have to expose them to the risks of doing and doing.

At the same time there is every opportunity available for personality development of the aspirants by exposing them to the task of coordinating and managing the college events in the form of periodical functions. They also get a chance to come on the stage to exhibit their acquired skills.
