The events ranged from academic workshops and lectures to cultural and sports activities, all resonating with the spirit of inclusivity and collaboration.

A highlight of the jubilee year was the introduction of pioneering initiatives such as StatNFact, CoachBuddy, and SapthaRashmi, born from the joint efforts of faculty, alumni, and students. These ventures represent a stride towards a future where education, research, and practical application converge.
In line with its community-centric approach, MSIS also strengthened its ties with the local educational landscape, signing Memorandums of Understanding with neighboring colleges, thereby broadening its impact and outreach. The valedictory function started with the welcome address by Dr Dinesh Rao, setting a tone of celebration and reflection, and was aptly concluded with a heartfelt vote of thanks by Dr Prashanth Kumar Shetty, acknowledging the enthusiastic participation and support of the entire MSIS community.
