Yes NIT Trichy is better than IIT Mandi.

Some seniors even hold positions in technical secretariats and club coordinators, making it a great environment to work in.

Who is/was the most inspiring senior at IIT Mandi?

SS
Shubham Saxena Posted On : March 20th, 2021
Studied B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi (2022

Swapnil Sharma, a CS student at IIT Mandi and Shreyas Bapat of first year. He's a man who did Gsoc in Open Astronomy, placed around 40 lakh packages in Code Nation, and still contributes to SunPy for Summer of Code in Space even after placement. He had been earning freelancing since his first year. His belief in the productiveness of time usage is awesome, and that would continue to inspire students throughout their college life.

Likewise, Shreyas is a kind of person who would not want to include some points in his resume that others would find lucky to have; because this guy has done a lot of hell! He gave a flash talk at PyCon India, where eminent personalities like the creator of the Pandas Python Library were present. He has created his own organization, Einstein, which is selected for Socis and can be selected for Gsoc next year, and Shreyas is in charge of the 3rd year Btech students at IIT Bombay and Georgia Tech University. Although his branch is electrical, he is probably one of the best astro-python developers in the world.

These two seniors are the most inspiring seniors of IIT Mandi, and they both are also ex-coordinators of Space Technology and Astronomy Cell, (STAC) which is an internationally renowned Astronomy club at IIT Mandi.
