Dr. R. K. Gajjar
Dear Students & Faculty Members, It is a matter of great happiness that first quarterly issue of VGEC newsletter, 2017
is brought to you. The world is changing fast with innovation and unconventional
thinking. This is the era of global technological development and advancement.
India is one of the fastest growing and progressing countries in the world. Industrial,
technological, and scientific development is accelerating at a very fast rate.
In such an environment, industry demands highly qualified, skilled, efficient and well
trained engineers. Engineering colleges are trying their best to provide engineers as
per the requirements of industry. Quality education contributes in making a beautiful
world. To fulfill the ongoing mission for providing quality engineers, Vishwakarma
Government Engineering College initiated multifold activities related to students and
faculty members. The aim is to create an environment that will groom engineers
who will contribute not only to the specific needs of the industry but will also be
socially responsible and will leave their distinguished mark in whatever they do. I
am sure that the energy and commitment of our dynamic students and highly
qualified faculty members will lead us to great heights and make the state and
nation proud.

This summer for Birds…
The NSS VGEC has taken a special initiative for the birds. They planned to adopt a pot of water and a home-
made nest for birds and put them in the environs of the VGEC campus. For this, first of all they made a team
which will do the micro planning for this event. After that, they told other students of the college to collect waste
boxes to make nest out of it. They collected 25 different waste boxes from their home or from their locality and
made different types of nest from the waste boxes. On 12th April 2017, all the students who have adopted the
water pots and nests came together and hang all the water pots and nests in the places given to them according
to the survey done by the volunteers. NSS VGEC would encourage them by giving certification to the students
who will maintain regularly the water pots and nests for the whole 1 year.
Road Safety Awareness Program:
Vehicle driving and Awareness regarding roads is one of the utmost required knowledge amidst the Indian society.
To begin spreading the knowledge, its preferred to begin from one’s home. For the same concern, NSS VGEC
organized a Group Discussion to spread a word of taking the initiatives in this direction on 10th April 2017 at
Visvesvaraya Auditorium. The discussion contained the information on Types of Various traffic signals, Traffic
rules, road traffic legislations, Motor Vehicles Act 2016, Offences and penalties Use of helmets while driving two
wheeler and How to reach to maximum people to spread the awareness of the same. Around 25 NSS Volunteers
were present to discuss the future initiatives in this domain.
The key points for the future initiatives discussed are,
For creating awareness about traffic rules by preparing Nukkad natak/drama , Videos concerning safe
driving and traffic rules, Advertisement (Poster in classrooms), Satirical Stand-up comedy acts and Drama
competition on topic road and safety.
To Make every volunteer (NSS VGEC ) aware about all the traffic rules and legislations to begin with,
timely seminars will be planned.
Conduct interactions and conversation with those person or families who suffered from the road accidents.
This can directly empathize the audience
Many technologies implementation and their importance can be explained
Will conduct eye checkups or health checkups for the drivers of public transport.
Suggestion with the solution will be represented to the government by the research team on the issues
pertaining common man.
We will conduct this awareness at school level through nukkad natak and other means .
NSS VGEC will have one research and development team which will study the areas of concern and will
then by propose a way of solution.
This will be carried as a permanent project of NSS VGEC beginning in the month of July in terms of

Drone Making With Raspberry Pi
IEEE VGEC Student Branch took
up the challenge to explore the use
of Drones in the Smart City plan. As
a part of their quest, they
successfully conducted a 3day (27-
29 June 2017) workshop on Drone
making with Raspberry Pi. The
uniqueness of this event lies in the
fact that it was entirely conducted
for the students by the students
themselves. Thus they got the dual
advantage of learning about
sophisticated Drone making as well
learning employability skills such as
team work, leadership, articulation
and technical content. The 3day
workshop was focused on
delivering the interactive session
which was primarily focused on
Drones. Drones have been around
for years, and they are used for
different purposes. Recently, these
devices are becoming increasingly popular and their applications are expanding in numerous fields. Hands on
training was given for actually making Drones with Artificial Intelligence using various software and hardware tools
like python, processing, arduino, 3D-printing and raspberry pi.
