The Diamond Jubilee Celebrations of CSIR- Structural Engineering Research Centre (SERC) is being celebrated this year to mark the 60th year of CSIR-SERC being founded.
CSIR-SERC had organised a quiz competition exclusively for the undergraduate civil engineering students on May 14 at the CSIR campus, Taramani, to inculcate the aptitude for scientific research in the young minds.
Dr. N.Anandavalli, Director of CSIR-SERC, briefed about the organisation. This was followed by the quiz by A.K. Farvaze Ahmed, Principal Scientist at CSIR-SERC, and his team. Fifty-seven students from 19 engineering colleges from all across Tamilnadu actively participated.
Six teams qualified for the finals, which featured several rounds of civil engineering questions, including audio-visuals. The participating students were enthusiastic, energetic and sportive and made the event a grand success.
The prize-winning colleges were awarded with trophies, and the finalists with shields and prize money.
