Best Technical Chapter
of the Campus
The academic year 2025–2026 was a defining milestone for the ACM Student Chapter at VIT Chennai. Operating with a relentless commitment to technical excellence and community-driven learning, our chapter rose above 130+ active clubs to be crowned the Best Technical Chapter on campus.
Over the past year, we cultivated a thriving ecosystem of innovation, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and industry applications. From highly anticipated, large-scale events like CodePulse and Server Surfers CTF to foundational bootcamps in Data Structures and Algorithms, we engaged a massive network of over 1,900 participants across more than 45 institutions nationwide. Our efforts were not only recognized locally but also cemented a place in the prestigious Asia Book of Records.
This monumental achievement wouldn't have been possible without the unwavering dedication of our core team and the invaluable support from our esteemed industry partners, including Code Vipassana, Kaspersky, and ACM India. Their expertise and resources empowered us to deliver world-class workshops, impacting hundreds of students and fundamentally shaping the next generation of tech leaders.
