Purpose of Student Induction Programme is to help new students to adjust and feel comfortable in the new environment, inculcate in them the ethos and culture of the institution, help them to build bonds with other students and faculty members, and expose them to a sense of larger purpose and self exploration. The term induction is generally used to describe the whole process whereby the incumbents adjust to or acclimatize to their new roles and environment. In other words, it is a well planned event to educate the new entrants about the environment in a particular institution, and connect them with the people in it. Student Induction Programme engages with the new students as soon as they come into the institution; before regular classes start. At the start of the induction, the incumbents learn about the institutional policies, processes, practices, culture and values.

Institution organized induction programme every year as per the guidelines of AICTE and VTU.

First year students from Srinivas Institute of Technology have been involved in cleaning up the campus. This initiative has centered on building awareness about keeping the environment clean inside and around us. Students said they would do their best to raise concern about preserving safe neighbourhood.
