Team Gen-Y is a project-oriented, technology-based IT solution student team with the mission of integrating and advancing the best minds at SRMIST.
As a team with mentorship and tips from leaders in the industry, We strive to transform ideas and competitions into aced prospects. Our intention is further enhanced through the continual organisation of workshops, seminars, and hackathons.
Team Gen Y works to build an excellent community, motivate like-minded people and integrate them to work towards a better society. We strive to make people the best version of themselves with training and teaching inclined towards a more rational and practical approach to problems. Successful projects we have created and hackathons we have won attest to it.
Rather than naming Gen-Y a tech club, we love to describe it as a community of more than 100 tech-loving students
We, Gen-Y aim to inspire the illuminating minds in the field of Technology with a vision to foster global change. We bring developers, designers, and young leaders together under one roof, forming a student-led community to inspire millions! In addition, we strive to establish new standards of excellence in our respective spheres by teaching and growing as a whole.
Members from our team have won some very prestigious hackathons recently. Shown here MesoHack by MLH, DS Hack22, Smart India Hackathon-22
We are divided into 6 domains of technical prowess to have the most powerful skill set needed to solve any problem.
The motto with which Gen-Y works, 'Together ordinary people can do extraordinary things' is indeed something which I experienced being part of the club! Gen-Y gave me the exposure and connected me with people inclining towards goal of striving for the betterment of our society! Gen-Y is a place where you can explore and implement things in domain of your choice.

I was a part of Gen-Y as a DS/ML Domain Member and in my final year as the DS/ML Domain Head, and the opportunities afforded to me by Gen-Y are one of the key reasons I've had the chance to build my profile and be able to pursue a holistic growth in terms of knowledge and application. Gen-Y gives you an opportunity to surround yourself with like-minded driven people with which you can collaborate, build projects and affect solutions. Gen-Y also gives you the opportunity to be able to mentor and usher in the new recruits and build your mentorship skills which are essential in real life scenarios in a development team, and look good on your profile as well. Personally, the projects pursued during my time at Gen-Y, Seminars taken charge of, and leadership opportunities provided to me provided a massive boost to my profile and helped me grow as a computer science professional and as a human being.

Team Gen-Y has played a very big role in my life and career. I got the chance to be the creatives domain head for the team for tenure of more than 2 years from 2018 to 2020, this phase was game changing for me, I learned so much from the seniors & peers, did lots of hardwork and got the opportunity to organize and speak at multiple events, did multiple projects and handled social media creatives. I formed the UI/UX Design domain in the team and advocated UI/UX Design throughout the university. The Most rewarding and worthwhile experiences I had was participating in hackathons with Gen-Y team members, this honestly transformed my life, gave me so much confidence and growth. I have won 9 Hackathons till date in collaboration with Gen-Y members. Team Gen-Y has given me friends for lifetime. I'll always try to be in touch with this amazing team and contribute with best of my efforts.
