NETRONiX works in an organizational way ensuring that its core objectives are not disrupted
but at the same time creates a harmony among its members which makes it a society of
individuals who are closely knitted by a bond which is more precious than friendship.
The alumni network of NETRONiX is strong, well-connected and goes back to the days of its
foundation.
This makes NETRONIX a platform where students of GIKI not only experience an organizational environment,
manage events or acquire technical knowledge but also socialise with the alumni who help them with their life
in the university and beyond; in both their personal and professional lives.
NETRONiX is a student-run society which was established by the 7th Batch of GIKI in order to
maintain and improve GIKI's LAN Network.This decision was taken so as to diversify the skills of
students.
Over the period of almost 18 years, NETRONiX has not only maintained its core objective of
handling the whole LAN of GIKI but also provided the students a platform to learn and
implement their skills.
The result can be seen in the form of the improved network system of GIKI and the new services
being provided by NETRONiX.
