VISIONNAIRE

RECREATE | INNOVATE

As students of engineering, we have generally been confined to the 4 walls of a classroom with scant opportunities to put our knowledge to the test. One of the main drawbacks that we have after leaving the institution is the disconnect between what we have learned in class and the work assigned to us.

Visionnaire, brought to you by FARC, in association with IE-NITK and SAE-NITK, hopes to help you in overcoming this problem with the 'Industry Defined Problem' or IDP. Industry Defined Problem is a platform for all the budding engineers out there to test their mettle by solving a real problem that occurs in the industry, provided to you by industry leaders. Here, you will get to show your skills in your field away from the confines of a classroom. It consists of 2 rounds - preliminary, wherein all submissions to the problem statement are reviewed and the best chosen, and the finals.
