Technophiles...addicted to Questioning

M.B.M Engineering College, established on 15th August, 1951 by the Government of Rajasthan, is considered as one of the most prestigious and reputed technical institute of the state. The college became a constituent faculty of the Jai Narain Vyas University( earlier known as the University of Jodhpur) in 1962.

Owing to its sound infrastructure, faculty and curriculum, the college has been producing engineers, at par with anywhere else in the world. The you ignited minds, which have passed out from the college, have made mark in every profession they stepped into.

With tremendous growth of various technologies and sciences, it was felt that the students needed a technical club to be in harmony with this gravitating technically advanced scenario. This concept was perceived and that came to be presently known as "Technophiles". The punch line--"Addicted to Questioning" , itself justifies the objective of the club viz. to infuse a questioning spirit among students and nurture their technical skills by providing them the platform and guidance for same.


and here is the electronic avtar of the club....a place totally dedicated to TECHNOPHILES and its members. The members get to talk to co-ordinators and post their views .....students can express their views and checkout for any news and information. To stay updated with the latest happening of the club you can use this blog.


Expressions and Opinions are welcome!!!!!
