It’s midnight, and you’re hungry.  You haven’t saved up any food, and nobody has any food.  What does an NITJ student do at this point?  Order from the “Night Food Court” ofcourse!  It is one of the latest services being provided by the creators of Food Pixel.  In light of this development, we have decided to interview the creators of Food Pixel to get to know them, and the thought process behind their ideas better: Food Pixel was created around 9nd March, 2018 by two students of NITJ.  Ghansham from Chemical Department (Final year), and Shubham from Biotech (Final year).  The interview went something like this:  Correspondent: Can you describe exactly what you are doing? Ghasham:  Our main service is food providing, and our main target is on colleges.  We are not limited to NITJ, either.  We think there are only one or two major restaurants near/in each college, and they charge high amounts and give less quality.  So...

"Be the character, Hold the situation, Find a solution". Model United Nations, as an initiative to improve diplomacy, negotiation, critical thinking, compromise, reaction time, public speaking, writing, and research among students, proved to be highly beneficial.   There were two rounds, first being the group discussion in which 20 students were shortlisted and divided into 10 countries.  The second and the final round which w as the main conference itself had the following agenda,"Terrorism and its facets".  It was a transformative experience in which all the participants engaged in serious, intense, and inspiring debate.  After 3 hours of diplomacy, the delegates who emerged as winners were Dhruv Miglani, Akshay Sethi.  With  Utsav Jain, Bhanu Pratap coming in as runners-up.  We congratulate Dhruv and Akshay on their win and hope this can further inspire more students to participate in this exciting event.

It was a tough call for him either to go for campus placements or to choose a competitive exam like CAT,GATE or GRE. But slowly and steadily he realised that GATE was his thing. It really inspired him that we had many previous year GATE  toppers from our own college. He joined coaching classes in his 6th sem but he started studying effectively for GATE in the month of August 2017, that is 6 months prior to GATE exam. He devoted as many hours as he could for GATE preparation because it was tough to manage both college academics and GATE . He never wasted his time in useless stuff and from November onwards when winter vacation started,he used to give pretty much 12 to 13 hours a day. For now his choice is Public Sector Undertaking(P...
