Pushing the Boundaries of Innovation and Excellence
The Indian Karting Race and Formula Imperial 2024 event drew participation from some of the brightest engineering minds, enabling them to take on real-world challenges, innovate, and excel. The event, a combination of engineering, motorsports, and hands-on learning, allowed students to develop, design, and race their own vehicles while applying the concepts they learned in classrooms to tangible outcomes.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Dhruv Galgotia, CEO of Galgotias University, expressed his deep pride and optimism for the future of engineering in India. “At Galgotias University, we are committed to creating platforms that challenge students beyond traditional academics. Events like the Indian Karting Race and Formula Imperial, along with hackathons and innovation contests, provide the opportunities that today’s students need. These events give them the chance to apply and grow their learning in ways that a classroom cannot fully provide. It’s in these moments of challenge, competition, and collaboration that true learning happens, and students are prepared for the dynamic future of engineering and technology.”
Dr. Galgotia emphasized the importance of giving students hands-on experience to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. “Our university thrives on innovation, and we are constantly looking to partner with organizations that can help us create experiences that push the limits of our students’ potential,” he added. “Whether it’s racing, hackathons, or other engineering challenges, these platforms are essential in shaping the next generation of leaders and innovators.”
