Event Watch: Taqneeq 08 – Coming up this weekend

December 11th, 2008 by Annkur

With the goal to close the gap between classroom learning and the practical world for their students CSI-MPSTME (NMIMS University) is all set to kick off its first TechFest – Taqneeq 08. The event looks extremely promising in its first edition itself. In the coming years we hope Taqneeq would lift the bar for Tech fests in India.

Computer Society of India established a Student Activity Center at NMIMS University in 2005-06. From a few students then, the Student Activity Center grew into a Student Branch with a strength of more than 200 members. Our first technical festival TAQNEEQ promises a phenomenal assortment of events for all present at our festival.

Events to watch out for:

  1. Blog IT Up -   A blogging contest. We love Taqneeq for this!
  2. Robotics Race: Wired robots competing across different tracks
  3. Hardware Junkyard: Collect junk from a puzzle and make a product on the given theme
  4. Guest Lectures: Senior execs form L&T, Mahindra and Tata communications

Also at Taqneeq is a Salsa workshop, a two day seminar to groom entrepreneurs and a street play on AIDS Awareness.

At OG we encourage a unique Tecniq (technique) of doing things; and here we get an opportunity to be a part of Taqneeq the fest. Watchout for all the latest happening from Taqneeq this weekend on OnlyGizmos (13th and 14th Dec).
