About the Academic Meet

After an overwhelming response from the students of Engineering Colleges all over the country in the Academic Meets of 2010 to 2022, Forum of Scientists, Engineers & Technologists (FOSET), a national level voluntary organization of professionals feels proud once again to organize the 13th Inter University Engineering, Science & Technology Academic Meet – 2023 & Innovative Model Competition for a Sustainable Society on 23 April, 2023 in association with Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology – West Bengal, Techno India Group, Indian Society for Technical Education – West Bengal Section, Association of Engineers India and Sister Nivetita University.

 West Bengal produces some of the finest talents in the field of Engineering, Technology and Science through its systematic and well-organized network of Engineering Colleges and Universities. The Academic Meet is recognized as an effective platform for exploration and brainstorming by UG and PG students, who have the positive inclination in translating their scientific knowledge into technology for the people. The event includes paper presentations before eminent experts in different fields. UG students & PG students’ avenues are opened up for presenting skill of craftsmanship. Also, by the process of paper submission, the students will gain experience in preparing papers in proper format and free of plagiarism. The two best papers from each stream will be awarded as a token of recognition. The 13th Inter University Engineering, Science & Technology Academic Meet – 2023 will therefore look forward to organizational expansion among the budding Scientists and Engineers participating in the Meet
