“You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine, and at last you create what you will” quoted George Bernard Shaw. Engineering has been the natural form of expression for creators over the past century, breathing life and inspiration into the human race. To defy convention, to change age-old perceptions, to capture the pulse of today’s crowd that generally has the memory of a goldfish a new breed of engineers that can think out of the widely quoted “box” is required. This has been the crux of Probe – the genre-defining symposium conducted by the Electronics and Communication department of NIT Trichy. Probe is much more than the oeuvre of diverse workshops, myriad challenging events, and illuminating guest lectures. Over the years it has gobbled milestones to emerge as a living breathing testimony of the spirit and creativity of an Electronics Engineer. PROBE had its modest beginnings in 1992 as a way for the electronics buffs all over the country to exchange ideas and has now grown into a techathlon that boasts participation from not only Indian students but also those in the Gulf, Singapore, Japan, Europe to name a few. With a milieu of activities and workshops guaranteed to provide a life-changing experience to those seeking to find their inner engineers or just be that golden achievement to those seeking to add glitter to their resume with a participation in Probe’s industry-oriented workshops from Atmel, Cisco, National Instruments, Cypress Semiconductors, Intel and Schneider Electric. PROBE has witnessed several dignitaries from the field of Research such as Mrs. Anuradha (Project leader of ISRO) and Mr.Manickavasagam(Head of Weapons Division DRDL), Dr.V.Natarajan, Joint Director of Naval Physical and Oceanographic Laboratory, DRDO, Cochin
