VSST SCHOOL HIGHLIGHT
Taking Flight: Turning Engineering Concepts into Real-World Aviation
|
|
|
|
The aeromodelling program at VSST offers students a dynamic bridge between theory and real-world engineering, transforming classroom concepts into tangible flight experiences. More than just building miniature aircraft, the initiative integrates design, physics, electronics, and teamwork into a hands-on learning journey.
Students begin by selecting aircraft designs, materials, and essential electronics such as motors, batteries, and control systems, balancing performance with efficiency. The process then moves into fabrication, where precision and structural accuracy play a critical role in ensuring flight stability. Ground testing follows, allowing students to validate system performance and troubleshoot issues before takeoff.
The highlight of the program is the flight testing phase, where models progress from short trials to full, stable flights, marking the successful application of aerodynamics and engineering principles. Beyond technical skills, participants develop problem-solving abilities, design thinking, and teamwork.
Supported by industry collaboration with Dronacharya Aviation, the program equips students with practical exposure and confidence. Ultimately, aeromodelling at VSST is not just an activity, it is an immersive experience that prepares students for future innovation in aerospace, robotics, and beyond.

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
Two Students. Zero Funding. One Open-Source Engine
|
|
|
|
When second-year CSE students Bhargavaram Krishnapur and Anshul Yadav couldn't find a market intelligence tool that was honest, affordable, and actually theirs, they simply built one.
The PulseEngine is an open-source developer community with a simple, stubborn philosophy: local-first, privacy-respecting, and MIT-licensed. No paywalls. No data harvesting. No VC pitch deck collecting dust in a Google Drive.
The belief driving everything is straightforward: software should belong to the person running it. Not a corporation. Not a subscription model. Not a server you'll never see. If you can't read the code, you can't trust the tool, and if you can't trust the tool, you're not using the software, you're simply being used by it.
That conviction shapes every decision The PulseEngine makes what to build, how to license it, and who it's built for. The answer is always the same: developers who are tired of asking for access to things they should already own.
The platform is live, the GitHub is active daily, and 10+ members are already on Discord actively contributing to the build.
What makes it remarkable isn't the tech stack. It's the attitude. These aren't students waiting for permission, a grant, or a mentor's blessing. They shipped something real, opened the source, and kept moving.

In celebration of World Book Day 2026, Vijaybhoomi University’s Knowledge Resource Centre (KRC) hosted a vibrant and intellectually enriching Book Review Event, bringing together students who share a passion for reading and critical thinking.
The initiative, led by Mr. Vijay Patil (Deputy Librarian), Dr. Arindam Ghosh (Chairperson), and Mohsin Shaikh, aimed to nurture a strong reading culture on campus while encouraging students to articulate their perspectives through thoughtful book reviews.
The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from students of VSIS and Vijaybhoomi University, who presented insightful reflections on a diverse range of books. Their presentations highlighted not only their understanding of the texts but also their ability to connect literature with broader ideas and real-world contexts.
Recognizing excellence, Tanushka Phatak was awarded Best Book Review, while Dhyan Thakrar received the title of Best Book Reader for their outstanding engagement and depth of analysis.
The university extends its sincere appreciation to the esteemed judges, Dr. Kumar Sargam (TSM) and Dr. Chandani Mathur (VSIS), and all the other faculty of VSIS for their valuable time, thoughtful feedback, and encouragement to the participants.
This event stands as a testament to Vijaybhoomi University’s commitment to fostering intellectual curiosity and holistic development.
More than just a competition, the event was a celebration of ideas, expression, and the timeless joy of reading, reinforcing the university’s vision of building a strong and enduring reading culture within its academic community.

Teaching French at VU
|
|
|
Teaching French, Shaping Global Futures For me, language has always been more than grammar and vocabulary. It is connection, confidence and possibility. I hold the DALF C2, the highest diploma in French as a Foreign Language, along with an MA in French and an MA in Psychology. Since 2009, I have been teaching French, designing creative workshops in writing, communication and grammar, developing pedagogical content, and serving as a certified DELF examiner.
At Vijaybhoomi University, I curated and now deliver a French course designed with KEDGE Business School pathways in mind, while remaining open to students from diverse programmes. For those planning to study in France, French becomes a key to integration, internships and everyday life. For others, it builds global perspective and cultural confidence. The encouragement from the management and the curiosity of the students make this journey especially meaningful. Alongside teaching, I practise as a counselling psychologist, which allows me to approach learning spaces with empathy and attentiveness. I also work as a professional translator and interpreter, and translated the bestselling French novel Le Petit Pays into Marathi as Chota Desh (Mehta Publishing House). Through my YouTube channel, French and beyond with Akanksha, I share accessible lessons, an especially useful tool for those who wish to revise or learn French independently, at their own pace. Being a French teacher is creative, demanding and deeply human and profoundly fulfilling.
