JITS Conducts Smart India Hackathon
Jyothishmathi Institute of Technology and Science (Autonomous) Karimnagar enthusiastically conducted the Smart India Hackathon (SIH)- 2024 Internal Hackathon on September 9, 2024. Smart India Hackathon is a nationwide initiative that gives students a platform to solve some of the most pressing problems we face in our daily lives. SIH offers a dynamic platform for students to create and showcase their innovative solutions to real-world challenges.
The Smart India Hackathon 2024 (SIH2024), organized by the Ministry of Education’s Innovation Cell (MIC), aimed to crowdsource solutions for improving governance and quality of life, as well as offer young citizens with the opportunity to co-create and showcase innovative solutions to India’s pressing problems.
This event was more than just a competition—it was a celebration of student talent and innovation. From coding all night to brainstorming breakthrough ideas, the hackathon truly brought out the best in every participant. Out of the 60 teams, 45 teams made it to the next round, bringing them one step closer to national recognition at the Smart India Hackathon 2024.
The hackathon provided students with the opportunity to work on real-life problems in areas like artificial intelligence, cyber security, sustainability, and smart cities. Each team brought something unique to the table—whether it was an app to help farmers, a solution to improve healthcare, or a way to make cities smarter and greener. No idea was too big or too small, and the excitement was amazing!.
