About CALIBRE
CALIBRÉ is the annual technical fest conducted by Fr. C. Rodrigues Institute of Technology (FCRIT), Mechanical Engineering Students’ Association in affiliation with Mechanical Engineering Department in the even semester. MESA is an intra-collegiate professional body of students. Under its umbrella, various technical seminars and technical events are conducted, which secure participation from a number of industries and institutes from across the city. We are conducting our Technical Fest known as CALIBRÉ 2k22 from April 7 – April 9, 2022 in collaboration with The Institute of Engineers India, Belapur Local Centre. We have been conducting CALIBRÉ since 2018. After achieving impeccable success since the past 4 years, we are conducting it this year too, but with even more enthusiasm and more interesting events. It was conducted with a prime objective of allowing students of different engineering institutes to showcase their innovative ideas and collaborate with various engineering students, to enable participated students to enhance their skills and knowledge in the field of engineering and share their technical intellect through the projects ,posters and technical papers made by them. CALIBRÉ proves to be a platform for the students mainly from the diploma and degree to present themselves in a professional manner among the emerging engineering students nationwide. It will be a 3 days event in which a National Level Project Poster Competition and National Level Technical Paper Presentation Competition, which will be the highlights of the technical fest, will be conducted with the intention of creating an innovative outlook towards science and technology among the students. Apart from the aforementioned events, we also have events like CADDICT, a CAD modelling-oriented event & Quizophile, a Quiz event. This year we have come up with Three new events crafted specially for our students to have fun and learn!

MESA is among the most active student bodies in the institute. Mentored by experienced faculty members of the Mechanical Engineering department, students take upon many initiatives that prepare them to face the challenges of the future. MESA aims to create opportunities for the students to enhance their knowledge about the latest developments in the technological world by organizing various events. SYNERGY and MESH are the two events conducted every year as a part of activities under MESA. SYNERGY is conducted in the odd semester every year and MESH is conducted in the even semester during the college fest. Both these seminars look forward to provide a broader vision to the students regarding various technologies and developments happening in the professional field outside the college classrooms. In addition to these, since March 2018 MESA has been conducting a technical fest named CALIBRÉ wherein events are organized for the students with the motive of providing a platform for them to learn and show their talents and technical skills.
About THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS (India)
The Institution of Engineers (India) [IEI] is a statutory body established in 1920 and incorporated by Royal Charter in 1935 to promote and update the advances in engineering and technology. It is the largest multi-disciplinary professional body of engineers encompassing 15 (fifteen) engineering disciplines with a membership of more than 820 thousand, and serving the nation for more than 9 decades. The IEI has its headquarters located in Kolkata with national presence through more than hundred Centres and several Overseas Chapters, Foras and Organ. The Institution of Engineers (India) is the first professional body to represent India in several International Bodies, such as the World Mining Congress (WMC), the World Federation of Engineering Organizations (WFEO), the Commonwealth Engineers Council (CEC), the Federation International du Beton (fib), and the Federation of Engineering Institutions of South and Central Asia (FEISCA). It also has bilateral agreements with a number of professional societies across the globe. IEI holds the International Professional Engineers (IntPE) Register for India under the global International Professional Engineers Alliance (IntPEA). The Institution also wards the Professional Engineers (PE) Certification. Ever since its inception, IEl has been the forerunner in setting up national standards for promoting the country's industrial base which culminated in the formation of the Indian Standard Institution (ISI), now called as Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). IEI, in collaboration with Springer, regularly publishes peer reviewed international journal in five series, covering fifteen engineering disciplines.
