Overview

Sharda University is organizing a 4-day hands-on workshop on Drones and Robotics Training (DART) in September 2025. The workshop is designed to give students a practical, interdisciplinary learning experience, combining mechanical, electronics, computer science, and biotechnology applications.

With participation expected from 60–100 students, the workshop will provide focused training on drones and robotics, covering sensor deployment, data acquisition, microcontroller integration, prototyping, and real-world demonstrations. Students will interact with experienced mentors and trainers, work on take-home robotics kits, and compete in a final-day showcase of finished prototypes/models. 

Prizes and certificates will be awarded to the best-performing teams, making this an exciting opportunity to gain future-ready skills while working in a collaborative, innovation-driven environment.
