About BAJA SAEINDIA
BAJA SAEINDIA is an educational pursuit for engineering college students, an out-of-classroom-education system, where engineering students can participate as a team, giving them pragmatic exposure to real-world challenges as faced in the industry. Originally started in the USA by the SAE International as Mini BAJA SAE, today it is being organized in several countries. In India, it is being organized as BAJA SAEINDIA. A student-level competition in which teams from universities all over the country, conceptualize, design, analyze, fabricate, validate, and run an all-terrain vehicle. This is evaluated during a series of static, dynamic, and endurance events.
Over the years, BAJA has grown in numbers and has become a bigger event nationally, signifying increasing popularity. It serves as a platform for young engineering talent to showcase their skills and acquire real-life experience while overcoming obstacles and challenges- something that is critical for their long-term success.
