Where learning meets action
One of the biggest crowd-pullers was KBCE – Kaun Banega Civil Engineer, a quiz competition that tested participants on core engineering concepts, infrastructure knowledge and problem-solving skills, drawing enthusiastic participation and engagement.
Equally impactful was ANSYS Tech Day, offering insights into advanced simulation tools and their real-world applications in structural analysis and infrastructure design.
Hands-on workshops on MS Excel, STAAD Pro, Revit and Primavera P6 equipped students with industry-relevant skills in design, planning and project management—bridging the gap between theory and practice.
A fest with a purpose
Repertus 2K26 was envisioned as more than just a technical event—it became a convergence of ideas, innovation and interaction, enabling young engineers to engage with contemporary challenges and future-ready solutions.
Adding a cultural dimension, the fest also featured a special evening in collaboration with SPIC MACAY, celebrating India’s rich classical heritage and reinforcing the importance of holistic development.
Through initiatives like Repertus, IITRAM continues to nurture the next generation of engineers, empowering them to think beyond textbooks and build sustainable, innovative infrastructure for tomorrow.
