VadictInnovathon 2019 was a IOT and computer programming competition which involved all engineering colleges with a reach to approximately 10-15 teams with 3-5 members in each team. It was a plan to challenge the students to think out-of-box and offer innovative solutions for smarter applications which will help address major real time problems in our Vadodara city.
This was first effort by Vadict to involve young students in proposing solutions for problems faced in day-to-day functioning. This led the students to think out-of-box and provide innovative, disruptive and sustainable solutions, which could be pursued after the Hackathon for further refining of solutions.
Two teams from ITM Vocational University secured 1st and 4th Position in Vadict Innovathon 2019.
Following students were awarded prize and certificate in the Innovation by Hackathon Vadict:
Name Department Team Leader(1st Winner) Jeet Patel (4th Year CSE) Team Member(1st Winner) Sarthak Joshi (4th Year CSE) Team Leader (4th winner) Tarun Maheshvari (4th Year EEE)
Problem Statement (Team: Default):

PROJECT EXHIBITION was organized by the Department of Engineering, on 16th September 2019.
All engineering B.TECH & INT.B.TECH students are participation of this exhibition.
Major objective of organizing this exhibition was to provide the platform and unleash the potential of the students by showcasing their innovative projects developed in the Final Year either as Industry Defined Problem or User Defined Problem and provide an opportunity for the students to demonstrate their learning experience.
The outcome of the PROJECT EXHIBITION was that students were able to show their project at higher level and the process boosted their confidence.
Simultaneously, Inspirational videos were shown for 1st year students of their upcoming career.
The event started with full fledge with more than 185+ students and 40+ Project teams. Our college experienced a lot of professionalism in presentation, communication skills and ideology toward better solution of different problem.
Projects exhibited were mainly explored in the broad areas of Robotics, Application of renewable energy, Wireless power transfer, Sensors, Micro-controllers, embedded systems, IOT and many more. The project exhibition showcased many interesting concepts and ideas which can be further developed to give better solution for engineering problems and can be developed further as a product.
Projects made by B.Tech and Integrated B.Tech students. They were excited to show their skills, interest and projects to judges and faculties.
The objectives of Project Exhibition 2019:
• To demonstrate personal abilities and skills required to realize and present an extended idea in Interdisciplinary areas. • To analyze hardware software co design concepts to build real time system. • To compare and contrast similar existing products and highlight the benefits.Outcomes:
On successful completion of the Project exhibition, the students will be able to:• Extend their learning experience by designing projects and providing them with opportunities to enhance their CV and employability. • Demonstrate a sound technical knowledge of their selected project topic. • Undertake problem identification, formulation and solution. • Design engineering solutions for complex problems utilizing a systems approach. • Communicate with engineers and the community at large in written and oral forms. • Demonstrate the knowledge skills and attitude of a professional engineers.

The Innovative interventions have been made ever since the inception of the ITM Vocational University (ITMVU) in the Year 2014 with an objective of developing the students as Change Leaders, Next Generation Problem Solvers and Entrepreneurs to contribute to the Society and Economy. These Interventions started yielding results within a span of two years.
In the first year (2015) itself about 50 creative ideas were generated through Project Based Learning from the students. Ten selected working models at ITMVU were exhibited at th Vibrant VCCI Exhibition and Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2015, which were appreciated by the Visiting Industry Executives and Academic Scholars and received inputs for further improvements.
In the second year (2016) additional 100 creative ideas were generated, of which 20 working models were exhibited at an event at Gujarat Public School. Three of which were selected for further competition. The event is covered by CNBC and our students’ creativity was well appreciated.
In the area of Cross Cultural experience and communication, eight students of ITMVU exhibited their talent at the Regional Student Forum and Indian Student Forum of IUCEE – SPEED event at Rajkot and Pune in the year 2015-16 and three students were identified for further selection for the Global Student Forum and were given training in Navi Mumbai. Out of the three, one Student. Akshay Yadav selected to attend Global Student Forum in Seoul, South Korea on Nov 6-10, 2016. His registration at the event is sponsored by IUCEE – SPEED. At GSF in Seoul, Mr.Akshay Yadav is assigned the role of Vice President-Asia of SPEED Global, which is prestigious positin .
