Keeping in tune with modern times, COMET also adds up software and design contests besides trivia contests in the form of quizzes and puzzles. CAD-esign event is the ideal platform for mechanical engineering students having an appetite for designing, to apply their skills and knowledge to come up with creative and original solutions to the problems put forth.
However, the major attraction is undoubtedly the guest lectures from industrialists and engineers who read the who’s who in their respective fields. It will be a great learning experience and definitely a one-off opportunity one cannot afford to miss. Also lastly it will have a dose of fun and frolic too with the cultural night.
