This award started in 2024 is our gesture to congratulate and bring to light the new age engineers who continue to uphold the legacy of UVCE.
Sammilana - Engineers Day
Remembering and Celebrating Sir MV
Sammilana is a heartfelt tribute to the visionary Sir M. Visvesvaraya, bringing the UVCE community together to honor his enduring legacy. This flagship event serves as a bridge across generations, where alumni from various batches return to their roots to reconnect, reminisce, and forge new bonds.
Beyond nostalgia, Sammilana fosters critical dialogue regarding the current landscape and future trajectory of UVCE, ensuring the institution continues to thrive. It has become a collaborative platform dedicated to upholding the excellence and innovation that Sir MV championed since 2019 onwards.
UVCE 5K Run/Walk
Bi-annual Run
UVCE - Cubbon Park
More than 1000 participants – senior alumni, faculty, current students – have participated in the run/walk from the College to Cubbon Park and returned back to college in the previous iterations
Taking a cue from the Centenary Run organized in 2017, we started this tradition of organizing Run/Walk once in two years. Both 2023 and 2025 runs were very successful in attracting huge crowds and enjoy the event along with their friends and other UVCEians.

Alumni Focussed Events
Bringing everyone
together
We are trying to create a platform for the alumni to come together and build a strong community. For that to happen, we are creating occassions like:
- Reunions
- Meet N Greet
- Alumni Soiree
- UnConference
- Online Meets
We will be working on creating more such scenarios in order to make it a vibrant alumni network.
Initiatives Before UVCEGA
Before UVCEGA was formed, many alumni groups organized events, had started initiatives in solios at various capacities. Majorly, UVCE Mega Reunion in 2011 and multiple events during the Centenary Year of UVCE were prominent. To know more about them and appreciate those efforts, we have dedictaed a separate page (which also will be udpated for documentation purposes)
