One of the most exciting and popular events of the Student Outreach Program, the Industry Defined Problem is one opportunity you don’t want to miss. The IDP is based around suggesting an innovative method to real-time problems and displaying them in the form of digital poster or working models. Through this event, we hope to bring together young innovators and give them a platform to crystallise their ideas into concrete forms.

The IDP gives you an opportunity to rub shoulders with giants of the chemical industry, who could become the key to taking your model from a mere a poster or prototype to an industrially applicable technology. Via participation, you also get to be a part of an internship initiative that could get you placed as an intern in some of the best companies to kick-start your career.
