About MIT-WPU
Summit 2021.

India’s biggest Annual Inter-Engineering Sports event hosted by MIT-World Peace University committed towards the goal of ‘Nation Building through Sports’.

Reading books might help you gain knowledge and succeed in life, but sports make us understand the importance of principles to be followed in life. Sports teaches us endurance, perseverance, dedication and also makes us understand that we are going to have ups and downs, but we need to keep running right through them. In 2004, Maharashtra Institute of Technology, Pune organized an annual sports meet SUMMIT for all Engineering colleges across Pune. The event received a great response with a footfall of over 1700 students competing in a total of nine events. Since then, Summit has been progressing and thriving and has become one of the biggest National-Level Engineering Sports meet.
