YICC involves real life technical challenges that shall be provided by the industry. Every team gets a chance to select an Industry Defined Problem (IDP) according to their preference on the first day and will get 72 hours to come up with a paper solution. On the fourth day, solutions will be judged by the academic and industry experts of relevant fields in strict confidence. The event usually takes place in the month of January and is one of the pioneer event in the field of chemical engineering and technology. The event incorporates challenges from multiple disciplines such as food engineering, Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals, oils and oleochemicals,textiles, dyes etc. Since the problems given are industrially defined, successful participants may also get recruited by the visiting industries.
