The 19th edition of Kshitij, the annual techno-management symposium of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur, is back to enthral students across the nation.
The fest, to be held digitally from March 4 to 6, would involve corporate simulations, robotics, olympiads, hackathons and more. Engineering and management undergraduate and postgraduate students would be brainstorming over three days and triggering their innovative and creative brain cells. Edugraph is the digital media partner for the event.
“Kshitij is not just a fest but a platform where you think, create and enjoy. Rising above the horizon and being a part of an ecosystem is what shapes the future of the nation. The series of events and competitions is open to the student community across India.
