During the last two decades, MVJ College of Engineering has been continuously introducing several innovative programmes in a progressive manner, to expose the students to more industry related activities, and prepare them to be Industry Ready by the time they move out of the college. While introducing such specific activities, the sole objective has been to equip the students to face the demands of the Industry. These activities are in addition to their regular curriculum and academic activities, and are carefully crafted and implemented to expose the students to the practical aspects of Engineering, to nurture innovation, instil critical thinking and encourage hands-on training. The appropriate structuring of these programmes was always properly guided through detailed deliberations in the Governing Council. These programmes gained popularity, year after year in the campus, thus attracting a large number of students.
The details of the programmes and their structure are given below:

Introduction
The UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) Club at MVJ College of Engineering was established in 2016 under the Department of Aeronautical Engineering with the vision of nurturing future innovators in aerial robotics and autonomous systems. The club was founded to meet the growing interest among students in drone technology and to provide them with a structured platform to explore, experiment, and excel in this cutting-edge domain.
From its inception, the UAV Club has been dedicated to offering hands-on experience in the design, development, fabrication, and piloting of UAVs, including multirotors, fixed-wing aircraft, hybrid drones, and custom-built aerial platforms. The club aims to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and industry requirements by immersing students in real-world projects that combine principles of aerodynamics, control systems, embedded systems, electronics, and software programming.
One of the core objectives of the club is to promote interdisciplinary collaboration, allowing students from various engineering backgrounds—including Aerospace, Electronics, Mechanical, and Computer Science—to work together on UAV-based projects. Through this collaborative approach, students enhance their technical skills and develop leadership, problem-solving, and project management capabilities.
The UAV Lab at MVJCE, spanning 60 square meters, is fully equipped with essential tools, simulation software, UAV kits, and drone components. It provides a comprehensive environment for experimentation, training, and innovation. Over the years, the club has grown to include over 200 active student members, guided by dedicated faculty coordinators and an enthusiastic student executive team.
The club regularly conducts workshops, training programs, internships, and technical seminars. It also offers a structured Ability Enhancement Course (AEC) as part of the academic curriculum, which introduces students to the fundamentals of UAV technology, flight simulation, and autonomous navigation. Students actively participate in national-level competitions, exhibitions, and hackathons, consistently earning accolades and recognition for their innovative UAV designs and social impact projects.
In essence, the UAV Club of MVJCE is more than just a student organisation—it is a dynamic, innovation-driven platform that empowers students to become leaders in the rapidly evolving field of unmanned systems. Through mentorship, collaboration, and hands-on learning, the club continues to inspire a new generation of engineers to shape the future of aerial mobility and intelligent systems.

Humans have many difficulties in agricultural monitoring and vegetable growth inspection. One problem is that they can’t identify insects in vegetables like cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, kohlrabi, spinach, etc., because of their small sizes. Also, different types of crop infections aren’t always visible to the naked eye. In India, around
Eighteen per cent of crops are damaged because of insects and diseases. Another reason for crop damage is wild animal attacks in farmlands. Wild animals like boar, elephants, monkeys, etc., destroy crops by crushing or eating plants. Around 30-40 per cent of crops in India are damaged because of these. The agricultural Robot can execute complex tasks accurately and efficiently because it uses sophisticated machine learning algorithms to read and react to visual inputs.
