With initial project of designing college’s official website (http://www.juit.ac.in), the club went on to form a team of over 25 members in year 2005 (under the co-ordinatorship of Pramir Jain). It joined forces with JYC (Jaypee youth Club) in year 2006. It was this period that Tech Club reached a spot in official pages of university & was named Createch (CREAtivity + TECHnical) in the year 2006 under the co-ordinatorship of Ankit Mahanot. This period saw a great surge in technical talent in JUIT which forced Createch to open up its sister tributaries of Robotics Club named Nexus & Web Team and start a full fledged Technical Festival (MURIOUS) for the university. Apart from this Createch publishes a bi-annual technical magazine ‘LOGIN’ with an aim to provide a different perspective to what already exists in this universe.
