MAGISTECH is an event organized by ISTE Students’ Chapter-MGIT which is held annually on 15 and 16 September. The event provides a platform for engineering students to interact and share their ideas with other students across the country. The themes of the paper presentation competition cover the entire spectrum of engineering and technology. Other major events include the Robotics competition and Tantra (a design competition in which a problem statement is given). This event is conducted as part of the celebrations of Engineers’ Day, the birthday of "Bharath Ratna Sir Mokshgundam Visvesvaraya".
QUBIT is the annual technical fest of the Department of Computer Science. It is a prestigious technological event in the state with papers presented from all over the country. It has risen beyond its technical reach and incorporated cultural aspects with the introduction of LAN-Gaming, Treasure Hunts, Fun Stalls, etc. giving it an all-round reach.
