3 -IDIOTS

HISTORY

It is my pleasure to be part of this event and take this opportunity to tell you the story of 3 Idiots. How it is created and came in to an existence. Every occasion will have its own history. The 3 Idiots is also not out of this, it is too have its own history. For this history, I am going back to Jan 2014. We had an exclusive discussion for bringing a new and different platform to bring students from different disciplines, join together, create an idea, and develop their idea to further levels until it becomes a solution or product to the society to address the real time problems. The seed has come from the minds of our respected principal Dr.N.Suresh Kumar; he has brought the word “3 IDIOTS” for us and made us to create the platform on “3 IDIOTS”. The word 3 IDIOTS is having its own meaning. The numeric 3 refers 3 students from 3 different departments, I refers –Idea, D refers Develop, I refers Implement, O refers –Optimize, T refers Test and S refers Sell. This platform will bring the 3 students from 3 different departments, join together develop a solution for any real time problems through well defined stages from Idea to Sell. They can bring their contributions in any of the above mentioned 6 levels and present and come out with fruitful outcomes for further levels. The event is mainly proposed to make the students to spend their winter / summer holidays in more positive and productive manner.

With the blessings of Mother Velammal, Visionary Support of our Hon’ble Chairman Shri.M.V.Muthuramalingam, Visionary Guidance of our Hon’ble Vice Chairman Shri. Ganesh Natarajan and Seed from the Respected Principal, the VCET Student Chapter of Indian Society of Technical Education and the Department of Computer Science and Engineering jointly brought the first version of the 3 Idiots in Aug 2014 as an Intra college level event. It received well responses from the students and went to a grand success event. Then, we decided to take this event to further level as a National Level Event.

The second version of the 3 IDIOTS has been conducted in March 2016 as a National Level Event. It attracted 560 participants from all over India. The 366 participants attended the event from 40 different Institutions in India.
