About EXULT

EXULT is started with an idea to bring renowned academicians and budding technocrats under one roof for mutual exchange of scientific knowledge. This is a forum, where in an opportunity is provided to share views, knowledge and an exposure to various research activities to enrich the students and widen their horizon. In addition it gives an opportunity to develop inter personal relationship, direct interactions, in a friendly, lively and dynamic environment. This encourages and spurs the novel electrical engineers of diverse intellectual abilities from all over the country, to churn out new ideas and strive towards scientific development with a competitive spirit.

EXULT2K7
The EEA has sown the seeds of impetus in 2007 in a view to have a national level technical symposium to meet the needs of budding engineers. It has grown successfully owing to the efforts of all the intellectual brains behind it. A number of colleges have been invited from every nook and corner of the country. The response for the seminar was overwhelming in every aspect.

EXULT2K8
The roots got deepened with EXULT2K7
with wider branches to provide the shade needed for the students to widen their horizons. It has been a great congregation of experienced and inspired thinking with that of emerging and aspiring engineers.

EXULT2K9
It has now taken another step forward gearing ideas together with a view to provide a much broader platform and extend the fruits of EXULT to more budding engineers to unearth their innovative and competitive skills. This year, we are inviting 600 colleges from different parts of country. With events like paper presentation, model display, tech quiz, we intended to provide the diverse branches on a single arena to get the students a mix of today's driving phenomenon in a hugely competitive world and with the cultural touch that provides the need for accessories in this globalisation of technical era.
