The Department of Mechatronics Engineering, in collaboration with the Microbytes Innovation Club, organized a technical event titled “MechTriads” on September 30, 2026. The event aimed to enhance students’ problem-solving, analytical thinking, creativity, strategic decision-making, and presentation skills through a structured solo competition. A total of 97 students from various departments participated enthusiastically in the event.
The competition was conducted in three rounds. Round 1 was a quiz based on General Knowledge, Science, and Sports, from which 15 participants were shortlisted based on their performance. Round 2 was a Case Study Analysis Round, consisting of 5 practical case-study-based questions to analyse and answer within a specified time, testing their analytical thinking, problem-solving and decision making skills. The round required participants to analyse practical scenarios and identify the most appropriate solutions, thereby testing their analytical and problem-solving abilities. From the 15 participants, 5 finalists were selected for the final round. Round 3 was a Solution Presentation Round, where the finalists were presented with department-specific crisis and extreme-situation scenarios and asked to provide appropriate solutions. Each participants answered 5 questions, evaluated based on technical approach, safety, decision-making, problem-solving, and communication skills, with two participants selected as winners.
Overall, the event successfully enhanced participants’ analytical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, strategic decision-making, and time management skills. It encouraged independent thinking, logical reasoning, innovation, and technical curiosity, while providing a competitive platform for students to demonstrate their ability to analyse real-world problems and develop innovative and feasible solutions.
