Dear Parent,

Greetings of the day!

The Department of Computer Science & STREAM is opening the registration process for a Robotics and
Programming Challenge under Artificial Intelligence National Championship 2023-24.

The Programming Competitions Category serves as an engaging platform for students enthusiastic about
coding and web development. It hosts a wide range of competitions, encompassing Web Design and Web
Development to create captivating web experiences, coding challenges in C++ and Python, and a
beginner-friendly Tynker competition.

In contrast, the STREAM competition primarily centers around robotics and artificial intelligence.
Teams from various categories engage in designing, constructing, coding, testing, and adapting robots to
tackle challenges themed around the competition.

Who can be a part of the program
