About Virtual BAJA

The Virtual BAJA SAEINDIA is a filtration criterion, through which all the registered teams are scrutinized for their

knowledge and capability to participate successfully in the main event. Virtual BAJA started in the year 2009 and is

supported by working professionals as judges and volunteers across the country.

The Virtual BAJA SAEINDIA acts as a pre‐qualifier to participation in the BAJA SAEINDIA event.

The objectives of the Virtual BAJA Event are as follows:

1. To acquaint the teams completely with the objectives of the BAJA SAEINDIA event.

2. The teams are required to acquaint themselves with the technical guidelines and limits for the

design of BAJA vehicle.

3. To design the complete CAD Model of the BAJA Vehicle. The design should be complete in all

respects to the extent of being considered ready‐to‐manufacturing.

The design presented during the event shall be considered as final and the team shall be considered to proceed

towards fabrication activity using the same design. Failing this, the teams shall be penalized / disqualified if the

fabricated vehicle does not exhibit correlation with the design report or if the teams fail to fabricate within the

stipulated timeframe.

Based on the performance in the Virtual BAJA, the teams would be selected for participation in the main event.

The selection would be purely on the basis of merit and ONLY ONE TEAM PER COLLEGE shall be allowed on the

basis of comparative merit. This excludes the eBAJA registrations from those colleges.

Note: The Virtual BAJA is a pre‐qualifier, thus, no ranks or awards would be issued for the Virtual BAJA event.

About Chitkara University

In the year 2002, Chitkara Educational Trust

established its Punjab campus 30 kms from

Chandigarh, on the Chandigarh–Patiala National

Highway. In the year 2010 Chitkara University was

established by the Punjab State Legislature under

“The Chitkara University Act”.

Chitkara University, the best university in Punjab

is a government‐recognized university with the

right to confer degrees as per the Sections 2(f)

and 22(1) of the UGC Act, 1956.

The sprawling campus of the University is

equidistant from Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula,

Ambala and Patiala. The University offers multi‐

disciplinary programs, all of which are designed to

be industry‐relevant. As a result of this student‐centric approach, Chitkara University is renowned as one of the

best private universities in the North India region. From business management programs to programs in nursing

and medical laboratory technologies; and from computer science, electronics and mechanical engineering

programs, to hotel management and architecture—Chitkara University, Punjab is a veritable cornucopia of

educational services.

Curriculum is delivered in spacious, amphitheatre‐style classrooms—fitted with modern information and

communication technology (ICT) equipment—and in well‐equipped, modern laboratories. Additionally, students

are encouraged—and provided relevant facilities—to participate in co‐curricular and extra‐curricular activities

through various clubs and societies on the campus.

It is because of the cumulative effect of an elaborate in‐campus academic infrastructure; strong national and

international collaborations; and a robust on‐campus recruitment record—including regular recruitment by

reputed blue‐chip companies—that the University finds favor with national as well as international students.

A healthy number of foreign students regularly study at the campus and number of them also visit on exchange

programs, adding to the cultural diversity found on campus. The University in Punjab provides several

opportunities for local students, too, to visit foreign universities and institutions on such exchange programs,

thereby helping them receive invaluable international exposure.

The University has at the centre of its philosophical core the commitment to excellence in education. It is the

strong academic heritage of the University, and such firmness on matters of principles that has seen it grow from

strength to strength in such a short span of time.


An Aauto Welcome

In the current generation, only Innovation and Quick Ideas can be regarded as the

most apt differentiator for the engineers globally. Humans have always improved

life through innovation. From the discovery of fire to electricity, the Internet of

things, new rationale is impervious to social progress and economic proliferation.

Innovation is an inherently human endeavour, it succeeds when people with Skills,

Experience, and Capabilities come together to understand or predict, and then

solve the inherent common problems impeding the growth of a Nation. Talent,

which is available in our Country, in plenty, needs to be nurtured pragmatically, as

it is a key catalyst for driving innovation and growth.

Successful innovation rests on a foundation of education and skills. Education is a fundamental element in

innovation and access to both basic and vocational education is key to talent development. Its high time that

Countries start considering to dedicate a significant percentage out of their GDP (Gross Domestic Product) into

Education and Intellectual capacity building, for the human resource to drive innovation and growth. It is equally

important for industries and businesses to actively bridge up with Academia and enhance education systems.

The modern students have so many competitive options available to demonstrate their talent and Innovation

Quotient that can attract the Core Industries in recruiting the right candidate who can contribute innovations to

their existing systems. With such engineering competitions, you have got a chance to do something what you

dreamt, incepted, wanted to endeavour and thus create a space of your own.

I hope to see that through Baja event, with the massive participation it gets, all can learn how to manufacture

automobiles. So, with a strong vision of “MAKE IN INDIA” I wish one and all participating colleges and Universities,

Good Luck and welcome you at Chitkara University for the Virtual BAJA SAEINDIA 2015 and may the best teams

advance to the Finals.

EXPLORE YOUR POTENTIAL, always!

Food & Dining

When it comes to North Indian cuisine, the first thing that strikes mind is the Punjabi traditional food.

There is nothing specific as far as the Chandigarh cuisine is concerned. It is mainly the Punjabi food that

forms part of cuisine of Chandigarh, India. Punjabi cuisine is popular not just among Indians, but also

among the foreigners. The staple food mainly consists of wheat‐based rotis, paranthas and naan.

The main feature of Punjabi food is the extensive use of butter, cream, ghee and cheese. Their meals

usually consist of pulses cooked on a slow flame with the traditional Punjabi tadka. For preparing the

gravy, a mixture of onion, tomato, ginger, garlic and spices are used. Usually the traditional Punjabi food

is prepared in the earthen tandoors, which give the food a unique aroma. In the category of beverages,

one name that truly deserves a mention is the Punjab‐di‐Lassi.
