What is SPW? Summer Projects and Workshop (SPW) is a forum launched by IIT Madras professors and senior students to expose first year students to real-life problem-solving applications. With multi complex situations requiring usage of more than one skill set, these projects become a challenging yet an exciting platform to learn coding in Python and design the applications. The applications are usually coded in one or more of Python, C, C++ and Matlab. This year, the primary emphasis would be on Python. SPW was earlier organized as a three week Software Training Workshop (STW) in the summer of 2013, and later as SPW in 2014 and 2015. The events were quite well-received by the participants. Such a program is invaluable to enable and empower the young minds.
