Agenda
IEEE PaperQuest 2024: A Journey Through Technical Innovation
As part of the IEEE Day celebrations, the IEEE Student Branch at Don Bosco College of Engineering, Goa organized IEEE PaperQuest 2024 on October 4th, 2024. Themed Journey Through Technical Innovation, the event aimed to enhance participants’ skills in research methodologies, paper analysis, and presentation techniques by working with research papers sourced from IEEE Xplore. With over 60 students participating, the event featured four technical tracks: Digital Systems and VLSI, Remote Sensing and GIS, Robotics and Control Systems, and Machine Learning, Cloud, and Data Analytics, providing a comprehensive platform for students to learn and showcase their expertise.
The hosts opened the event by emphasizing the significance of IEEE Day, which celebrates advancements in technology that contribute to the progress of humanity. They also underscored the event’s core goal—equipping students with the skills to effectively analyze, present, and discuss research papers, fostering a deeper understanding of technical innovations.
