IIT Gandhinagar is committed to a holistic approach to education in engineering disciplines and beyond. The institute promotes critical thinking and an appreciation of the interdisciplinary character of knowledge. To usher in this thought process for our first year undergraduate students, we are happy to present to you Project Eureka.

About Project Eureka

Science and Technology are all about facts and discoveries, with some of the remarkable breakthroughs coming from seemingly everyday occurrences and experiences. One of the oldest and well-known tales revolves around Archimedes' legendary “Eureka!” moment while taking a bath in a tub, when he made a remarkable discovery, that is now known as the Archimedes Principle. Since then ‘Eureka’ has been employed as an interjection to celebrate insight or discovery.

Project Eureka has been carefully curated where credence has been imparted to critical thinking without precluding fun. We hope that the participants will experience their respective Eureka moments. We will also recognise the three best submissions under each activity and reward them with Amazon gift cards.
