Meeting people at CBIT
Meeting people at CBIT, in Hyderabad, starts with the campus's own social rhythm, not a generic checklist.
CBIT's 90-acre Gandipet campus runs two named annual flagship fests, the design-and-innovation fest Sudhee and the cultural-and-arts fest Shruthi, and has organized its own independently licensed TEDx event, TEDxCBIT, since 2017, and CBIT MUN every year since 2009.
What the campus is like socially
CBIT runs on a hostel and technical-society culture, where hackathons, coding clubs, and the annual technical fest are the main social anchors alongside the classroom.
How to find your people here
At CBIT, a technical club, hackathon team, or the fest organizing crew is the fastest way to meet people outside your own branch.
