ALUMNI INTERACTION
During the 3rd Semester of MCA, students are expected to work on a Mini project. This being a web application, we were supposed to write restful APIs which would connect the front end and the back end. Since this was something entirely new for us, the department organized an interactive session with our alumni Nikhila and Sudeshna (2018-21 batch) who took time to explain to us what a restful API is, the different CRUD operations that can be performed using restful APIs and how we were supposed to code them, store them, connect them to the database, connect them to the front end and also how to ensure our credentials is safe when we upload this file onto git repository.

We also got an opportunity to gain knowledge from Shivavarshini (2018-21 batch) while working on our Android project. She helped us out with connecting the applications built on two different environments (unity and android) and also helped us whenever we got stuck at any point.
