What is Coding Club, IIT Guwahati?

We are a group of people who love anything and everything related to creating stuff and solving problems.

From organizing nationwide events like CodePeak to recreating the entire college in Campus Rush, from being competitive in Lockout matches to winning Hackathons together. We always strive to make coding more accessible and enjoyable to everyone.

Our ideas and aspirations are not limited to within the campus, but to cater to the entire country.

What is Ethos?

Spearheaded by the vibrant tech ecosystem of the North East and hosted by IIT Guwahati's Coding Club, Ethos is not just a hackathon - it's a national movement.

With strategic problem statements powered by leading companies and real-world challenges posed by government bodies, Ethos unites India's brightest minds in a high-stakes innovation battleground.
