DIPEX is an annual and most prestigious and popular state-level exhibition cum competition of working models designed by students and faculty of engineering, polytechnic, agriculture, postgraduate science courses and research scholars from the Indian stats of Maharashtra and Goa organised by Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad and Srijan Trust since 1986.[1] Year 2013 is a Silver Jubilee year for this mega event where students from 2 Indian states gets exposure for their creativity, innovation and an unique opportunity to interact with industry, academic market segment.[2][3] According to newspaper reports around 20,00,000 students from 2500 educational institution had participated in this exhibition cum competition since 1986.[4][5]
Description
editIn 1996 a competition of working models was initiated for degree engineering students as a part of Dipex. To widen the horizon of Dipex, various sections involving students of Indian Institutes of Technology, post graduate science faculty, agricultural colleges and universities a new section "Shodh", for innovative ideas,and for experiments in non conventional renewable energy sources, have been added over the years.[6]
Along with this exhibition cum competition part of Dipex, various seminars have been organised to guide students about future scope and requirement in various fields like Reverse Engineering, Entrepreneurship Development, Information Technology, Agriculture, Appropriate Technology etc.
Mission
edit- To increase the interaction between industry & institute.
- To develop entrepreneurship among the students.
Objectives
editThe main Objectives DIPEX
- Identify real life problems faced by society and apply technical inputs to solve them
- Increase” problem solving capabilities” of engineering students.
- Promote creativity and innovations among students
- Develop manufacturing skills, zero defects concepts through project work
- Create awareness about commercial applicability and feasibility of the working models
- Act as platform for much needed” industry institute interaction”
- Promote projects based on climate responsive technology and renewable energy
- Create awareness about intellectual property rights (IPR)
- Instill the spirit of entrepreneurship in young technocrats
- Encourage women participation in technical sector
Concept
editStudents are offered to participate in these four competitions:
DIPEX
editThese competitions are divided in 11 sections. A separate section for Agriculture colleges & Non-conventional Energy.
SRIJAN
editThis competition is specifically dedicated for engineering students and divided in two sections.
SHODH
editThis competition is a combination of all types of projects based on innovations.
Industry Sponsor Section (ISP)

Project assessment group (PAG) was formed and now all entries have to go for very stringent conditions PAG before allowing them to enter as a contestant.Strict selection procedure is adopted to limit the number of entries & increase quality control. Added new competition called Srijan IIT,degree Engineering and P.G. Students.
- 2000-2002 Natural phase of expansion with a theme 'Applicability of the project in practice and its Feasibility as a product in market, new section of Information Technology & Biotechnology was added. Also to provide information about the great Technological achievement by public Sector & private sector companies & individuals, a new section called Success Stories of Bhartiya Technology was started. M.S.R.D.C., Konkan Railway, Siemens, KV.I.C. Krishna Khore Vikas Mahamandal were participate in Dipex at Thane. Seminars on I.T. for Bharat , Ideas in Appropriate Technology, Talk with First generation Entrepreneurs were organised.
