SAARANG

It is the annual cultural festival conducted by IIT Madras in January on its vast serene campus. From the days it was called Mardi Gras, Saarang, ''a five-day extravaganza'' sets the standard as far as cultural festivals go.

It is one of the very few cultural festivals that is completely managed and organized by students. Like Shaastra, it is run by a similar team consisting of several hundred students which starts working several months in advance!

With budgets reaching dizzying 8-digit figures, over 50 events and an astounding footfall of over 50000 and attracting the finest talent in the country, Saarang has come a long way to become perhaps the largest college cultural festival not just in India but in Asia!!

The rock show was opened by Mother Jane... with the star attraction being the legendary Swedish heavy metal band OPETH, performing for the first time in India!!!

Unlike most college festivals, Saarang is very well rounded, with equal emphasis on music both western and Indian classical, dance of all sorts, fine arts like painting, clay modeling etc, speaking and thespian events, literary events etc and several other events that are characteristic to IIT Madras fabric.

Besides, several workshops are conducted for dance, music, dramatics, blogging, face painting,t-shirt painting etc during the five days which are thronged by huge crowds.

It attracts people from all over the country, inviting people from age eight to eighty. Some people come to participate, while some to have just plain fun ....or in other words to experience SAARANG

SHAASTRA

Shaastra is the annual technical festival of IIT Madras. It is typically he ld in the first week of October and is the first ISO 9001:2000 certified student festival in the world!! It is one of the largest of its kind in Asia .

It is run completely by students as a team of 17 cores, 150 coordinators and several hundred volunteers with preparations beginning about five months in advance, it is known for its exceptional organization, stunning range of activities, and a growing legacy for honing the engineering talent in India.

Student Projects

The Centre For Innovation (CFI aka C), funded by Batch of 1981 was started with the idea ''COME WITH AN IDEA AND GO OUT WITH A PROTOTYPE'' by the Institute, recently.

A well-equipped 24x7 facility, allowing the students to innovate, create and give a shape to their ideas, does justice to its tagline ...FACILITATING THE CREATIVE GENIUS! It has produced several successful projects like an unmanned aircraft,

an ornithopter(a mechanical bird), a self-balancing bicycle,a Desalination Plant, a Robot which propels itself using Archimedean screws, a Farming aid to name a few.

Some of the projects underway are: ROBOCON, this team is going to represent India in the International Robocon to be held in Tokyo this august, IARC(International Aerial Robotics Competition) to be held in Puerto Rico, a Humanoid Robot, a Speech Synthesizer, an Unmanned Car and a method to produce Bio Diesel from sewage water using algae!!!
