Inormation Technology (IT) is a broad area which uses Computingand Communication technologies to solve problems. The two majordisciplines to nurture these are Computer Science and Engineering

(CSE) which covers computing science and its applications, andElectronics & Communication Engineering (ECE) which coversscience and engineering o communication technologies andcomputing systems.

IIIT Delhi currently oers the ollowing programs: BTech in CSEand ECE, specialized postgraduate programs with MTech in MobileComputing, Inormation Security, Data Engineering, and VLSI &

Embedded Systems, as well as doctoral programs in CSE and ECE.

innovativeprograms

B.Tech.

These programs prepare students or careers centering aroundinnovation and problem solving in CSE and ECE, and or pursuingadvanced studies or research careers in these areas.

The curriculum or the CSE program ocuses on the undamentalso the computer science, as well as the application o theseundamentals in a modern context. Students start with core CScourses, with the possibility o doing science courses later.

The curriculum or the ECE program is directed to applications in majorareas such as telecommunications, energy and electronics sectors,while encouraging development o necessary skills or integration o

hardware and sotware components.


19/24

A Masters degree in IIIT Delhi is primarily industry-ocused, but can alsobe used as a stepping stone or research.

Masters students are given the option o pursuing their degree withoutassistantship so they can ocus ull time on the program, and possiblynish the program sooner.

To address the needs o the industry, which today requires morespecialized manpower as each eld is getting more complex, theinstitute provides the option o doing MTech with a specialization ineither Inormation Security, Data Engineering, Mobile Computing, orVLSI and Embedded Systems.

Students can opt or a thesis, or in lieu o that, extra courses and ascholarly paper.

M.Tech.

We believe that many creativeopportunities exist at theboundaries o traditional CSEand ECE, and have accordinglyplanned or cross-training ostudents across disciplinaryboundaries. ECE and CSEstudents initially have manycourses in common. Thereater,the program in the third andourth years, is structuredto allow customization byindividual students based ontheir own personal interests.

Humanities and social sciencesis an integral part o eachcurriculum. The

programs allow motivated students to graduate with a BTech(Honors) by doing extra units. Students interested in research can

take up independent studies and independent projects under theguidance o aculty members to urther their research career.


20/24

The overall PhD program requires students to do limited course-work

ollowed by the doctoral thesis. Students can enter the PhD programater a BTech or MTech degree and are expected to choose theircoursework accordingly. For candidates with work experience, relevantexperience may be counted as advanced knowledge in the area(s) oexpertise and experience.

Courses may be done in other recognized institutes or independently,ater approval or credit. A PhD candidate must give an open seminarin a chosen topic ollowed by a viva by a committee. Passing this viva

successully will ormally make the candidate a PhD scholar. This isequivalent to the qualiers or comprehensives in many other places.Ater this open seminar, the ocus is on the PhD thesis work. A scholar isexpected to make annual presentations about the work done that year.

IIIT Delhi has also started a collaborative PhD program with several glob-ally renowned labs and universities. Key eatures o this program are:

The main supervisor o the PhD scholar will be rom IIIT Delhi; theremay be a co-supervisor in the partner institution. Ater doing the course work and starting the research, the scholar

can spend 3 months to one year with the co-supervisor at the part-ner institution.

An attractive stipend is paid while the scholar is on campus. Whenthe scholar is at the partner institution, the partner will pay the sti-pend as per their norms.

Institute will provide support or presenting papers in national andinternational conerences.

world-class

aculty

IIIT Delhi has nearly 30 ull-time aculty members all o them havea Ph.D. Most o them have done their PhD rom USA and Europe. Inaddition, adjunct aculty rom industry and other institutions supplantour regular aculty in academics and research. We also have a panelo educators or humanities and social science courses that are parto the curriculum.

In the last two years, IIIT Delhi aculty members have published 40papers in national and international journals and conerences. Theyhave participated in nearly 30 conerences. Faculty members havealso received 5 prestigious awards or their contributions.

IIIT Delhi aculty has established a close connection with theIndustry. As a result, we currently have externally unded &Dprojects worth approx. R 45 million.


22/24

Students are inevitably the converging point o all dynamism at IIITDelhi.

A majority o students at both undergraduate and postgraduate levelare selected by a non-conventional aptitude test along with theirprevious merits. One o the main goals o the institute is to providefexibility to students or motivated learning through elective courses.

Being a research-led institute, students participate in researchprojects through internships. Even UG students are encouraged to co-author research papers. They are also given opportunities to work orreal-lie systems (like EP and PS) or applied learning.

The inter-disciplinary approach to education helps students to growas better human beings through compulsory community work andhumanities courses. An open and riendly culture has evolved inthe institute which acilitates interaction and discussion. A studentcouncil is elected by students to articulate their views and ideas inunctioning and governance o the institute.

Every year, sporting events such as Joga Bonito, the intra-college

utsal tournament, cricket tournament, table tennis tournament andpool tournament are organized. In 2012, Esya, IIIT Delhis technicalestival was held or the second time.

An ACM Student Chapter gives opportunities to students to getexposure to knowledge and trends in computing. Several studentclubs like music, quizzing, robotics, dance, literary, and ethical hackingclubs enable them to enhance talents in areas besides academics.
