In brief:-

Alchemy started out as the mystical and esoteric science of transmutation of common metals into gold. Alchemists invested a lot of effort in the search for the "philosopher’s stone ", a substance used to achieve this end the creation of a panacea, or the elixir of life, to bring on a life of eternal longevity to them. In a way therefore Alchemy has been a forerunner of the modern scientific chemistry, in turn laying the foundations of chemical engineering.

The chemical department of NIT-Trichy welcomes you to share a part of this quest for the philosophers stone in the form of Alchemy – our department symposium- to highlight the scientific advances in the field of Chemical Engineering. Alchemy 2010 brings you a wide range of events from workshops to guest lectures, paper presentations, panel discussions and much more! A two day event that provides you a podium to present your recipe of the elixir.

Alchemy this year is celebrated on March 5th and 6th 2010. Typically, this fest is one of the most celebrated chemical engineering events in South India. Competition is intense, but so are the rewards. And knowing that most of you are fully geared up, and gung- ho (as much as we are!) our core team comprising a panel of cutting- edge thinkers amongst faculty and students, have devised a series of challenging, smart and intelligent events for you. We cordially invite you to check the events out, as well as our guest lectures and panel discussions. Typically, we plan to have four guest lectures spread out through Alchemy. The site will be updated as soon as we get confirmation from speakers.

For the first time this year, we also plan to host a workshop on FLUENT and GAMBIT. Also on the cards, amidst our sprawling campus- the 2nd largest in the country- we offer to our guest students and faculty, accomodation in the newly built Garnet hostel. Snacks will be provided free of cost to all participants.

Ultimately though, Alchemy is all about ideas. Ideas, and their power to inspire, innovate and invigorate. So come, brimming with them, come with the enthusiasm to share with us their awesomeness, and return, fresher still, having interacted with like minded people and rejuvenated to contribute to our field of chemical engineering.

So brew, ferment and distill your ideas for Alchemy 2010!

In Brief:-

PRAGYAA, an ethos of a team, a tale of gradual success, a summation of smart efforts, a radiation of decisive power and a fusion of transpiring ardour to explore technology and transcend the existing one. PRAGYAA, the National Level Technical Fiesta of Shri Guru Gobind Singhji Institute of Engineering and Technology, has been a spectacular result over successful five years. For us it has been a voyage started with the ideas, a Journey started with Innovation, an expedition started with a small step to take a high leap of Innovations with Technological Improvement to make a change in society by the builders of society i.e. we the Engineers. This time, heading towards the Sixth year, we bring the all new avtar of PRAGYAA with 30 exciting events encompassing engineering, technology, business, agriculture, entertainment and with an initiative of Disaster Management. 
          Since PRAGYAA has been bearing in mind ‘society’ every year, the social aspect has earned it a title of Techno-social Event. PRAGYAA shines bright, but it shines bright to spread the light.

In Brief:-

Rightly is it said, that those who live hard and work hard, party hard as well… !!

And  GMC’s annual cultural fest ensures that we do just that.. and how!

Cos this is Astitva- the eagerly awaited festival of the largest medical college in Maharashtra and one of the oldest and the best in the country… a nationwide hub!!

Four days of creativity, learning, fads, fun and frolic- which draws  thousands of students from different medical and engineering colleges to it every year. The festival is organized at the college campus as well as the gymkhana located at one of the most beautiful locations in Mumbai  i.e.  MARINE DRIVE.

And this year- Astitva is back- bigger and better than ever! And the campus is heating up with excitement and frenzy .. quite literally!! The reason?? Take a look>>>

"Global Warming Melts Peruvian Peaks"

"Amazon Burning Makes Brazil a Leading Polluter"

"Global Warming melts Antarctic ice caps..raises sea level.. floods expected!!"

These headlines are enough to give you fever: If every world citizen, upon reading about global warming, changed his habits after seeing one of these chilling reports, our planetary temperature might return to normal in due course.

But too many of us read about global warming events while sipping double cappuccinos made from coffee beans growing in our vanishing rainforests, or while sitting in traffic behind the wheel of a gas-guzzling car. Our greatest challenge is to realize Earth herself hangs in the balance. Just as with nuclear war, global warming affects us all. There’s no place to flee. Unlike the choice of moving to another country if you’re dissatisfied with the political situation at home, you can’t escape global warming. Article after article makes it abundantly clear that we’re all in this together.

The earth is heating up. Quite literally. Increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases resulting from human activity such as fossil fuel burning and deforestation have turned the earth into a humongous microwave oven, and what’s cooking inside it is our collective brainpower. Global warming is a reflection of how overheated we are as we go about modern life; all a global warming article or book does is capture our blistering behavior in print.

As Barack Obama likes to say, the time for debate is over. We need to shut up now.

True to its name, Astitva-2010 aims to explore our existence with this all important question- How can we become more conscious consumers, responsible protectors of our environment, and reduce our dependence on the latest rage of fossil fuels, so that we don’t keep fueling our drive to become fossils faster..???

Cos this time, there’s no one to point fingers at. As the comic strip character on Pogo once said… "We’ve met the enemy and he is us. Trouble is.. he’s both ‘us’ and ‘them’". Global warming is but a global warning. It is no longer a catastrophe waiting to happen… it is happening..!!!
