Guwahati, July 3: In a world hungry for technical exposure and genuine inspiration, the student community of IIT Guwahati is all set to embark on an extraordinary journey.
Brace yourselves for the next edition of Technothlon – the prestigious international school championship, an integral part of our annual techno-management festival ‘Techniche’.
This year the excitement knows no bounds as it is the Silver Jubilee edition of Techniche. The prelims are scheduled for July 16, and the competition goes virtual, allowing students to participate from the comfort of their own homes, using their respective devices.
Technothlon stands tall as an international school championship, an awe-inspiring initiative spearheaded by the brilliant minds of IIT Guwahati. Since its inception in 2004, Technothlon has traversed an awe-inspiring path spanning over 19 years, captivating the hearts and minds of students in over 400 cities worldwide.
Prepare yourselves to witness the ultimate test of logic and creativity, as students from classes 9 to 12 lock horns in a battle of wits, aiming to claim the grand prize of Technothlon. Divided into two distinct squads, the competition intensifies as participants demonstrate their mettle individually.
The Juniors’ Squad, comprising talented 9th and 10th standard students, and the Hauts Squad, consisting of exceptional 11th and 12th standard students, will take on separate sets of thought-provoking questions meticulously crafted by the students of IIT Guwahati.
Technothlon unveils its enchanting journey in two phases, prelims and mains. The preliminary round challenges participants to unleash their raw potential, as no initial preparation is required.
This round demands sheer spontaneity and out-of-the-box thinking, putting the candidates’ abilities to the ultimate test. The top 50 participants from each squad earn the honor of advancing to the next round: the mains, hosted during Techniche at IIT Guwahati.
For those fortunate enough to secure a spot in the mains, an exhilarating adventure awaits on the picturesque IIT Guwahati campus during Techniche from Aug 31 – Sep 3. Here, competitors will face even more exhilarating rounds, pushing their limits to claim the coveted championship.
The past winners of Technothlon were rewarded with an extraordinary opportunity – a guided tour of NASA for the champions and a guided tour of ISRO for the runners-up. Such incredible experiences serve as a testament to the immense value and prestige that Technothlon holds.
Technothlon is thrilled to announce Physics Wallah (PW) as the esteemed Title Sponsor for the highly anticipated 20th edition of Technothlon. With this dynamic partnership, we are dedicated to elevating the event to new heights, ensuring an extraordinary and unforgettable experience for all participants.
Looking forward to the partnership, Imran Rashid, Vice President Central Partnerships at PW said – “We are delighted to partner with Technothlon 2023.
Physics Wallah’s mission aligns with that of Technothlon to nurture young minds and provide them with opportunities to excel. Together, we aim to provide a platform where students can unleash their maximum potential and embark on an inspiring journey of learning and innovation.”
Technothlon, the largest student-organized exam in the country, has a dedicated team of bright minds striving for its success. I guess no other exam in our nation has such an able team of ‘students’ working tirelessly to make the entire event a success.
Their motive is to encourage independent thinking among students, regardless of academic and social biases. We reflect this in our question paper and events at IIT Guwahati. Looking forward to the 20th edition and inspiring more children, said Uday Kanike, Overall Coordinator, Technothlon 2023.
