About the Institute

The Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT), Mumbai is a unique Institute which was established on 1st October 1933 as a University Department of the Bombay University (UDCT), completing 89 years of glorious past. ICT has created its own brand over the years which has been recognized by several prestigious awards and accolades to the faculty, students, and alumni individually and also as an institute. Under the World Bank’s Technical Education Quality Improvement Program (TEQIP), ICT was granted full autonomous status in 2004 and declared as Deemed-to-be University on September 12, 2008, by the MHRD under Section 3 of the UGC Act of 1956. It was bestowed an Elite Status and Centre of Excellence on par with IITs, IISc, and IISERs in the State Assembly on April 20, 2012, by the Maharashtra Govt. based on its stellar performance on par with the institutes of national importance. The genesis of ICT Mumbai is truly educative and its achievements are inspirational.

On March 2018, ICT for the first times crossed the confines of Maharashtra when the institute inaugurated the “ICT Mumbai Indian Oil Odisha Campus” at Bhubaneswar on 18th March 2018, at the hands of the President of India, Honorable Shri. Ram Nath Kovind, in the august presence of Honorable Shri. S. C. Samir, Governor of Odisha, Honorable Shri. Dharmendra Pradhan, Union Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, and distinguished bureaucrats, academicians, industry stalwarts, and citizens. The Institute has signed MOU with IIT Kharagpur for collaborating in various research activities. The foundation stone laying ceremony for the permanent campus was happened on 20th August 2021.

Our endeavour is not only to provide access to quality education and training but also to create an individual who can earn a sustainable livelihood.

Our vision and mandate is to develop a self-sustainable institution with sophisticated and high-end research facilities in the field of Chemical Technology and its allied branches and to produce well-trained engineers and extraordinary researchers.

The placement of students from the first batch of iMTech, Two Year MTech, and PhD scholars has also been progressing well in leading and globally renowned industries and academic institutions in India and abroad.

Academic Structure

Integrated M.Tech. (iMTech) is unique in its content, character, delivery, and outcome. It is new and being introduced in India for the first time. The objective to impart industrial training of two years to all students in different areas and develop entrepreneurial skills. CREATING ENTREPRENEURS AND INNOVATORS instead of job seekers is a prime goal. A variety of opportunities are provided to both students and teachers. During the industrial internship, the students have received stipends/or concessions from the industry making education affordable to students.
iMTech starts after completion of 12th Standard (HSSC, 10+ 2, or equivalent) and is of 5 years duration consisting of 15 trimesters (6 trimesters in industry and 9 in classroom on campus) with an alternate term in industry, with a major degree in Chemical Engineering and minor in 6 different disciplines. It will ensure improved quality and industry relevance in curricula development for integrated M. Tech. in the field of Chemical Engineering as a major branch with a minor in Petrochemicals, Textiles, Polymers and Materials, Foods and Pharmaceuticals, and Energy Engineering. The last two trimesters will be for the promotion of research problem with experiments which will lead to a design project to promote entrepreneurship and start-up companies. An experience of 2 years in different industries will boost the morale of students, their industry readiness, and placement prospects. Our idea is to place them in all processing industries including software companies, programming, electronics industries, minerals, coal, biotech, etc.
The admission to this course is based on JEE (Mains) and the intake capacity is 60. As stated earlier the programme is a trimester (4-month) system with 3 terms per year. The first trimester in an academic year will begin with classroom teaching and receiving training in high-level instruments in the fields of Chemistry and Physics, and Mathematics. The syllabus of Chemistry and Physics is so designed as to make the students useful for taking adequate training for industrial internships. The instrumental methods will include theory and experiment on instrumental methods of analysis, typically taught at M.Sc. level and in Mathematics, they will learn MATLAB, Python, C++, R-programming, CAD/CAM. The first term will make them understand the importance of various industries.

This is an innovative program where students may get a stipend from Industry in addition to accommodation and other facilities. During the course work student will be trained in an industry-leading to two years of total industrial experience. More than 50 industries are providing internships. This will help a student to acquire a better understanding of industrial processes/activities and in turn, helps in acquiring placement. This year 10 students are going to Canada/Singapore for an internship.

There are many refineries and petrochemical and allied industries in the country to employ students of the ICT. Alumni are at the helm of affairs of large number of renowned chemical industries. A placement cell is launched with the participation of the UDCT Alumni Association (UAA) to assist campus placement which begins in the month of July, and continues throughout the year for students. The Institute’s graduates are highly-sought after by the Indian and global chemical industry and their salaries rank among one of the highest in the country, even dwarfing the salaries of graduates of the premier branded institutes; placements achieved via campus interviews fetch emoluments ranging from Rs. 3.50 to Rs 14.00 lakhs per annum. What is most striking is that these placements are in hard-core industries relevant to the students training and education, and not in the software industry, which has been a major source for employment for graduates of some of the best institutes in India. With regards to post-graduate research opportunities, a good number of our students are offered admission by some of the world’s best universities to pursue graduate studies. The Institute is one of the few institutions in Asia that is regularly represented in the graduate student bodies of prestigious institutes such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University, University of California, Berkeley, Caltech, UCSB, Princeton, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, University of Texas, Carnegie Mellon University, Purdue University, University of Massachusetts, Cambridge University, Imperial College, Manchester University, Twente University, Monash University, to name a few. All of them receive full financial support. Several universities write to us to recommend good students. Leading foreign universities have signed MOUs for student exchange through proper support for the exchange. On average, about 75 students from various degree programmes get such fellowships. Quite a few Ph.D. holders go abroad for post-doctoral studies in reputed institutes; this is directly linked to the quality of research outcome and personal positioning of the faculty in the international community.
