6. 3D PRINTING CLUB
3D printing is -ary of various processes in which material is joined or solidified under computer control to create a three-dimensional object,[1] with material being added together (such as liquid molecules or powder grains being fused together). 3D printing is used in both rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing.
Equipments present in the club:
1.Boxzy 3D printer
2. X1 Calve machine

7. Work done: prototype making for live projects, rapid prototyping

8. ROBOTICS CLUB
Robotics is an interdisciplinary branch of engineering and science that includes mechanical engineering, electronics engineering, computer science, and others. Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. Robotics is also used in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) as a teaching aid.

9. GREEN TECH CLUB
The green tech club is fun learning place for students to learn and experiment on environmental engineering, science and technology.The student groups identify environmetal sustainability issues that they notice in their every day life and develop field workable solutions to the problems. this is highly interdisciplinary club for students from all departments.\
MAJOR FOCUS AREAS
waste disposable and recycling(wet/dry)
campaigning on waste reduction at source.
energy conservation .
water conservation and harvesting
noise pollution and effects.
road traffic control, improving fuel efficiency and air pollution reduction.
