About Millennium Mechnova .

Millennium mechnova is the mechnovaconducted to comemmorate the new millennium.This edition of the mechnova was organised in a bigger way with a steep increase in the prize money.The symposium is held intwo sessions ; applied science and energy&management. This time the first prize is Rs.3000,second prizeRs.2000 and the third Rs.1000.The topics were a mix of contemporary issues like C.A.M, I.T etc., and relatively unconventional issues such as material behaviour in vaccum pressure, Re - engineering etc., thereby ensuring a high quality competition. There won't be any participants from RIT in the competition category though interested students will be given chance to present their papers.
