Indian Institutes of Technology(IITs)

Indian Institutes of Technology


The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) need no introduction either in India or abroad, for their passouts have already made their presence felt everywhere. The Institutes were set up by the Government of India as `Institutions of National Importance' and almost all reputed international academic benchmarks have given them high rating.As their name suggests, they teach technology at UG, PG anddoctoral level and carry out basic and applied research in pure and applied sciences.


The IITs are funded by the Ministry of Human Resource Development and their policy matters are decided by a nodal monitoring body headed by the Minister for Human Resource Development.


There are seven IITs in the country located at Bombay, Delhi, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras, Guwahati --- and Roorkee.
