In Industry nobody expects an engineer to memorize everything and implement, instead they expect the engineers to refer to the required documents online during their design process. Texas has provided a wonderful opportunity for students to explore the art of searching through an online contest. STEPS in association with Texas Instruments India University Programme conducted an all India Level Technical online Contest for the students. The online contest DrishTI was OPEN BOOK type where the student would not require to prepare for attending the contest, instead for each question they were allowed to refer a document provided and understated the document to answer the question. The objective was not to test what student knew, instead to test the capability of referring the document and understanding it and also checking the amount of time taken for referring the document to answer each question without skipping the question was also the criteria for judging the winners.
More than 350 Institutional and University students along with IIT students actively took part in the online contest conducted by Texas Instruments. The Contest was conducted for 18 different technical subjects as listed below.
-Basic Electrical & Electronics Engineering
- Digital Signal Processing
- Linear Integrated Circuits
- Microcontroller and Applications
- Electronic Devices & Circuits
- Signals and System
- IoT_Application_using CC3200
- Data Structures
- Robotics System
