The IEEE Student Branch at Mohan Babu University (MBU) in Tirupati has been conferred with the Outstanding Student Branch Award 2025 at the IEEE India Council Awards, officials said.

"The recognition follows the branch's consistent performance and achievements, including its contribution to SAMARTHA 2025, a 36-hour national-level hackathon organised by IEEE, one of the world's largest professional association dedicated to advancing technology for humanity, with India being its largest membership base in the Asia-Pacific region," an official statement said.
