| Community building is an integral aspect of the ACES-ACM mandate, ensuring that the rigorous academic environment of the department is balanced with social engagement. The organization is responsible for the signature orientation program known as FROSH, which welcomes incoming freshmen into the department by providing them with essential tools, academic advice, and a support network of seniors. Throughout the academic year, the club hosts various social events, including departmental treks to the Himalayas, gaming tournaments, and campus-wide treasure hunts. These activities are designed to forge lasting bonds across different batches, creating a cohesive departmental identity. The year typically culminates in farewell ceremonies and departmental traditions for the graduating class, celebrating their journey from orientation to graduation.
