<div>Chemovation 14’, a national-level students’ symposium, was organised by the chemical engineering department of Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering recently. <br /><div> </div><div>This symposium brought students, academicians and industrialists on a common platform. Chemical engineers from all over the country interacted with each other and shared their ideas. <br /><br />Paper and poster presentation were also held as part of the fest. <br /></div><div> </div><div>The paper presentation included 56 papers out of which 32 were registered from various colleges across the country. <br /></div><div><br />These papers were bifurcated into different sessions like ‘Energy and Clean Technology’, ‘Chemical Engineering Applied Topics’, ‘Food Technology and Bio-chemicals’, ‘Energy and Clean Technology 2’ and ‘Separation Technology’.<br /><br /></div><div>The other important event was poster presentation, where eight posters were presented during the event. <br /><br />Students also showed great response to other events like quiz, collage-making, debate and treasure hunt. <br /><br /></div><div>The in-house cultural events included dancing, singing and a performance by a band. <br /></div><div> </div><div>The most eye-catching performances included a dance on Que Sera Sera and a performance by Samudra. <br /><br /></div><div>While the students sang and danced to different entertaining numbers, the head of the chemical engineering department also sang Zindagi Ek Safar with the students. <br /></div><div><br />The students were thrilled about the different events. Said Dwani V Gowda, a member of Samudra, the Indo-Western band which has eleven members that consists of two singers and nine instrumentalists, “We performed two numbers that included a Hindustani song Albela Sajana Aiyo Re and another number called Nada Nada by the Malayalam band Avial.”<br /><br /></div><div>She added, “It was a great experience to organise the whole event, bring people to it and schedule different things. The most challenging thing was to make sure that everything ended on time.”</div><div> </div><div>“Despite the event being a serious one, we tried to entertain the audience with many performances. The juniors were given a chance to perform first and then our performances followed,” said Madhuri Manjunath, a fourth-year chemical engineering student. <br /></div><div> </div><div>She also added that since she was a professional dancer, she didn’t have to practise much for the event. </div><div> </div><div>She was emotional as <span>this was probably her last </span><span>performance on campus. <br /><br /></span></div><div>“It was the best experience of my life. The audience was very energetic and this fest will always remain in my memory,” she said.</div></div>
