About the Institute:

Established in 1958, the second of its kind, IIT Bombay was the first to be set up with foreign assistance. The funds from UNESCO came as Roubles from the then Soviet Union. In 1961 Parliament decreed the IITs as ‘Institutes of National Importance'. Since then, IITB has grown from strength to strength to emerge as one of the top technical universities in the world.

The institute is recognised worldwide as a leader in the field of engineering education and research. Reputed for the outstanding calibre of students graduating from its undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, the institute attracts the best students from the country for its bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes. Research and academic programmes at IIT Bombay are driven by an outstanding faculty, many of whom are reputed for their research contributions internationally.

IIT Bombay also builds links with peer universities and institutes, both at the national and the international levels, to enhance research and enrich its educational programmes. The alumni have distinguished themselves through their achievements in and contributions to industry, academics, research, business, government and social domains. The institute continues to work closely with the alumni to enhance its activities through interactions in academic and research programmes as well as to mobilise financial support.

Over the years, the institute has created a niche for its innovative short-term courses through continuing education and distance education programmes. Members of the faculty of the institute have won many prestigious awards and recognitions, including the Shanti Swaroop Bhatnagar and Padma awards.

Located in Powai, one of the northern suburbs of Mumbai, the residents of the institute reap the advantage of being in the busy financial capital of India, while at the same time enjoying the serenity of a campus known for its natural beauty.

Mgmt., EMBA, MUDE, MPP Ph.D. and dual degree programs like B.Tech.+M.Tech., M.Sc.+Ph.D., M.Tech.+Ph.D. and M. Phil.+ Ph. D.

Currently, the Institute has twenty-six Academic Units: this includes fourteen departments, one school, six centres and five interdisciplinary programs. These Units constitute the academic fabric of the Institute. The teaching programs are characterized by their flexibility and informality. The strong faculty-student interaction on the residential campus provides an opportunity to students to work on seminars, publication and projects sponsored by the industry and national agencies.

IIT Bombay follows a semester system. An academic year (July-May) consists of two semesters, each of approximately 16 weeks duration. The first semester begins in the last week of July and ends by the last week of November. The second semester starts in the first week of January and ends by the last week of May. In each of the two semesters of the first year, a student is required to register for the relevant courses listed in the curriculum for that semester.

The Institute follows a credit system. Credits are allotted to various courses depending upon the number of lectures, tutorials and laboratory hours per week. The student’s performance in a course is continuously evaluated throughout the semester and culminates in the award of a Grade on a 10¬ point scale. Performance in a semester is evaluated in terms of the weighted average of grade points secured in all the courses registered in that semester, which is known as Semester Performance Index (SPI). A Cumulative Performance Index (CPI) is the weighted average of the grade points obtained in all the courses registered by the student since the time of joining the Institute.

IIT Bombay offers the following undergraduate programs through JEE (Advanced) 2021

•   B.Tech.
•   Dual Degree (B.Tech. + M.Tech.)
•   B.S.

The B.Tech. and B.S. programs consist of eight semesters spread over four years. The Dual Degree B. Tech.-M.Tech. program consists of 10 semesters spread over five years. A B.Tech. degree of the parent academic unit and an M.Tech. degree of a specialization within the parent (Dual Degree) and other academic units (Interdisciplinary Dual Degree) is given at the end of the fifth year. A “Minor” is an additional credential a student may earn for doing prescribed additional courses in a discipline other than his/her major discipline of B.Tech. Degree. Similarly, “Honours” is awarded to students completing a prescribed set of courses and/or project in their own academic units. This structure of academic programs provides flexibility to suit the varied interests of students and helps build multifarious competencies that employers demand besides satisfying the widely varying attitudes, abilities and aspirations of students.
