INTRODUCTION

The activity points initiative is an exciting aspect of engineering that contributes to the
betterment of society. This all-encompassing strategy promotes our growth by strengthening
our teamwork, leadership, and communication abilities. Students can further develop their
interests, abilities, and hobbies outside of the classroom by taking part in extracurricular
activities. It gives us the chance to mature as individuals, gain self-assurance, and create a well-
rounded personality. Participating in voluntary work improves our overall college experience
and lessens feelings of isolation or alienation. A vibrant extracurricular environment
encourages us to be involved in campus life after classes.
The idea of activity points guarantees that every student understands the importance of
education and contributes positively to society. Underprivileged children can receive assistance
through this program through organizing and participating in fundraising events, working at
nonprofit organizations, visiting schools to spend time with children during summer camps,
making improvements to the environment, planting trees, and other activities. It generally
teaches us to value and express gratitude for the things we have.

AICTE ACTIVITY POINT PROGRAM

To be successful as professionals, apart from technical knowledge the students should have

excellent soft skills, leadership qualities and team spirit. They should have entrepreneurial

capabilities and societal commitment. In order to nurture these qualities, VTU has introduced

activity points to be earned by the students during their academic stay at the University

covering extra-curricular and curricular activities.

The main activity segments are

1. National Initiatives

2. Sports & Games

3. Cultural Activities

4. Professional Self Initiatives

5. Entrepreneurship and Innovation

6. Leadership & Management.

The activities provide rich and varied experiences to the students, thereby building their

knowledge, boosting creativity skills and increasing cognitive skills. Additionally, the self-

confidence of learners is boosted as they explore both familiar and unfamiliar concepts in

creative ways. Apart from these it also paves way for improved Academic Performance,

explore varied Interests, create Broader Perspectives, builds Higher Self-esteem, Social
