The Core Team of GSC tries to create scalable impacts through technology and uplift living standards of people around us. Google is surely to be thanked to help as provide a platform like this. A company like it has endeavoured hard to bring out services which have made the world a better place. Google has long grown out from being just a search engine to be a community program; raking out products which touch lives.

The GSC also manages the official BIT Patna Google+ page. Add the page to your Google+ circles to stay connected to the college's activities.(Link below)
