IETE-SAKEC Student Chapter in collaboration with Electronics & Telecommunication Department and IIC 2.0 of Shah & Anchor Kutchhi Engineering College had organised INDUSTRIAL VISIT 2020 on 2nd to 9th January, 2020 to
ISRO Telemetry Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC), Bangalore,
Visvesvaraya Industrial And Technological Museum (Vitm), Bangalore
Centre For Development Of Advanced Computing (C-Dac), Bangalore and
Pondicherry
ISTRAC is entrusted with the major responsibility to provide tracking support for all the satellite and launch vehicle Missions of ISRO. The major objectives of the Centre are to carry out mission operations of all operational remote sensing and scientific satellites and provide them Telemetry, Tracking and Command (TTC) services from launch vehicle lift-off till injection of satellite into orbit, also estimate its preliminary orbit in space and hardware and software developmental activities that enhance the capabilities of ISTRAC for providing flawless TTC and Mission Operations service.
Mr. B Sankar Madaswamy, scientist/Engineer-SF, Manager, HRD, ISTRAC, Bengaluru. briefed about the ISTRAC and its operations.
Students gained knowledge about the orbital path of Mars mission and motivated to participate and contribute towards space research programs of India.
VITM, a constituent unit of National Council of Science Museums (NCSM), Ministry of Culture, Government of India, was established in memory of Bharat Ratna Sir M. Visvesvaraya. A modest building with a built-up area of 4000 sq. mtrs. was constructed in the serene surrounding of the Cubbon Park, housing various industrial products and engines,
VITM visit has striven to fulfill its objectives of stimulating creativity, innovation ideas among SAKEC students so that our students will reach new heights in their careers in the field of Engineering.
C-DAC, BANGALORE is the premier R&D organization of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) for carrying out R&D in IT, Electronics and associated areas. Different areas of C-DAC had originated at different times, many of which came out as a result of the identification of opportunities. The setting up of C-DAC in 1988 itself was to built Supercomputers in context of denial of import of Supercomputers by USA. Since then C-DAC has been undertaking the building of multiple generations of Supercomputers starting from PARAM with 1 GF in 1988. Students learn all technical aspects through the CDAC visit.
Total 54 Students from all year and Department participated in this Industrial Visit.
