About Indian Institute of Technology – IIT (ISM):

IIT Delhi, established in 1961, is a premier technical institute located in Delhi, India and is one of the seven Indian Institutes of Technology. It is administered by the IIT Council, an apex body established by the Government of India to coordinate activities across the IITs, with the Minister for Human Resource Development serving as chairman. The institute has a board of governors responsible for its overall administration and control. The foundation stone was laid by HRH Prince Philip in 1959 and the institute was inaugurated in 1961. IIT Delhi was later declared an Institution of National Importance and was renamed as such. With a campus spanning 320 acres, it is divided into four functional zones: residential for students and faculty/staff, academic for buildings and workshops, and a cultural-cum-social and recreational zone for students. The layout of the campus reduces walking distance by placing the latter two zones midway between the residential zones.

IIT Delhi has a central library and 18 departmental libraries, providing support for teaching, research, and extension programs. The library uses a software package for in-house operations and has over 130,000 bibliographic records available. The campus has 12 hostels, 9 for boys and 3 for girls, with reading rooms, indoor games rooms, lounges, and dining halls. Grading is based on the course coordinator and instructor’s expectations, not a statistical distribution. IIT Delhi has a Foundation for Innovation and Technology Transfer and an Industrial R&D Unit. The Training and Placement Unit helps students find jobs in the industry and private/public sector organizations. The Computer Services Centre provides computational and network services, courses, and sponsored research. There is a glass blowing workshop and clubs for drama, music, indoor sports, photography, fine arts, literature, and film. Athletic facilities for various sports and a National Cadet Corps unit are available. The National Service Scheme and National Sports Organisation are 3-credit courses for students. Student life is expressed through the Board for Student Publications and its publications, Campus Rumpus.
