Emerging Tech Workshop
A no-slides-harmed session on where AI/ML and IoT are actually headed, run by the domain heads who build with them.
SRM's student-led innovation engine. Start in a domain, then build a Sphere: your own team, pulled from anywhere on campus, aimed at a problem worth solving.

Your domain is where you start, the craft you go deep in. A Sphere is what you build with it: a team you assemble yourself, around a problem that refuses to sit inside one subject. The Medici effect, run as club architecture.
Sensors read the building, models decide what to do about it. Energy that turns itself down, queues that predict themselves, labs that flag a fault before anyone files a complaint.
Every Sphere here is started by a student. Name it, pull in whoever you need from anywhere on campus, and go. Or invent a Sphere that isn't on this ring at all.
Spot a problem, name the Sphere, pull in whoever you need. No approval queue, no waiting for someone senior to bless the idea.
Spheres are open to every student on campus. The people who make an idea work are rarely the ones sitting next to you.
The four domains are a starting grid, not a ceiling. If the Sphere you want doesn't exist yet, that's the best possible reason to create it.
Three loops that keep the club moving. No filler sessions, no attendance registers, no certificate-farming.
A no-slides-harmed session on where AI/ML and IoT are actually headed, run by the domain heads who build with them.
Zero to prototype in 100 minutes. Brief drops on the spot, plus a constraint twist at the halfway mark.
Every member gets a domain and two heads on standby. Real mentorship, zero gatekeeping, across all four.
Your domain is where you go deep and get two mentors. It's the craft you bring to every Sphere you join afterwards.
Every member gets a digital ID on this site that logs what you actually shipped, verified by the lead who reviewed it. Not attendance. Proof.
See how it worksEvery completed task logs against your profile with skill tags like Project Management, Python or User Research.
Project leads verify the work and stamp it. No self-reported fluff.
The result is a university-backed supplement to your CV that proves practical ability with documented impact.
Half of them are held for people who've never built anything. Pick a domain, take IRT or IART, and tell us the idea living rent-free in your head.
