At Manav Rachna International University (MRIU), academics and activities never end and students are trained in the diverse fields of engineering and technology, science, commerce, humanities, management, health sciences and therapies, sports and multi-media. Since its inception, MRIU has encouraged students to implement groundbreaking ideas and develop projects focusing on solutions relevant to education, health, economic development, communication, environment and disaster management etc. In reflection to this, students develop amazing projects which are all about risk-taking and a perfect blend of innovative ideas and utility. Following the trend, yet again, final year students of MRIU brought glory to the University by winning the ‘Best Projects Award’ recently, by the Faridabad Industries Association (FIA) for the year 2015. The awards were conferred to the outstanding technical projects developed by final year students from different Engineering Colleges. Two students Kartik Chawla and Gunveer Singh, from Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Faculty of Engineering & Technology (FET) bagged the first prize in the Computer Science Category, for their project “Human Eye Motion Detection System”. Another group of 2 students Priyanshi Mukherjee and Ravi Rawal of the Department of Computer Science Engineering (CSE) bagged the third prize, in the same category, for their Project “Media Player Based on Emotion Recognition”. Dr. N.C. Wadhwa, Honorable Vice Chancellor, MRIU; Dr. M. K. Soni, Executive Director & Dean, FET; Dr. S. S.
