Meeting people at DAIICT
Meeting people at DAIICT, in Ahmedabad, starts with the campus's own social rhythm, not a generic checklist.
In 2004, three M.Sc. (IT) students of DAIICT successfully challenged IIM Ahmedabad's CAT eligibility criteria in the Gujarat High Court, forcing a change to IIM-A's admission rules, a specific legal episode tied to this campus and not any other Gandhinagar or Ahmedabad institute.
What the campus is like socially
DAIICT 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 DAIICT, a technical club, hackathon team, or the fest organizing crew is the fastest way to meet people outside your own branch.
