Campus
Solve something inside your institution.
Industry
Solve a real operational or engineering problem.
Society
Public systems, accessibility, sustainability, safety and community.
Wild Card
Convince us a problem nobody assigned is worth solving.
What teams must demonstrate
- What is the problem?
- How do you know it exists?
- What did you build?
- Does it actually work?
- What would it take to deploy it?
Recognition vs continuation
Competition awards
- Problem Discovery Award
- Engineering Excellence Award
- Applied Intelligence Award
- Real-World Impact Award
- Best Evidence Award
Continuation recognition
- ATRISI Residency Shortlist
Shortlist is not Residency acceptance. Placement is a later staff decision.
Continuation triage
Archive · Iterate · Continue · Research · Club · Fellowship · CoE validation · Pilot
A prize does not equal continuation. A quiet team can still CONTINUE.
How Club sustains workQualified / sample problems
campus
Placement evidence is scattered across tools
Career offices collect placement outcomes in spreadsheets, portals and email. Students and TPOs cannot see a trusted evidence trail.
industry
Operational knowledge lives in chat threads
Teams lose decisions and constraints in messaging tools. New hires re-learn the same workflow weekly.
society
Local civic services are hard to navigate
Residents struggle to find the right process for a common civic request across fragmented portals and offices.
wildcard
Bring a problem nobody assigned
Qualify a problem you discovered. Show who experiences it, how you know it exists, and why it is worth a 36-hour build.
Register for this edition
₹899/student (₹799 with active ATRISI Club Annual Membership). Teams are 3–5. Every teammate registers and pays before evidence submit. Mentors / faculty / observers are fee-exempt.
After review
Continuation bridges
Competition awards and continuation triage are separate. When staff set a disposition, these are the applicant next steps — Club, Amplify, Fellowship, research, or iterate.
