IIT Delhi has 13 departments. Each department has its own administration structure with the Head of the Department (HoD) at
the top of it. The HoD heads the department for a period of three years after which a new head is appointed. Each department
offers a program (at the undergraduate or post-graduate level), some departments such as Mechanical Engineering Department,
offer two or more undergraduate level programs and some departments collaborate with each other to offer a joint program.
An example of the latter is the M.Tech in Optical Communications program which is offered by the Department of Physics and
Department of Electrical Engineering. The DMS (Department of Management Studies), IIT Delhi came into existence in 1993
by an amendment to IIT(D) statutes. The department offers a two year full time MBA programme with focus on Management
Systems, a two year full time MBA with focus on Telecommunication Systems Management and a three year part time MBA
programme with focus on Technology Management.
An inter-disciplinary center differs from a department in the fact that it deals with an overlap of two or more disciplines of
engineering or science. Similar to the departments the centers also offer programs though they offer these courses only at the
post-graduation level.

Current Degree Programmes
(April 1, 2012 - March 31, 2013)
The Institute offers undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in a number of areas leading to the degrees of B.Tech./ M.Sc./
M.Tech./ M.S.(R)/ DIIT/ M.Des./ MBA and Ph.D. in Science, Engineering and Technology and Management. The primary objective
of these teaching programmes is to offer instruction in applied sciences, engineering and management at a level comparable
to the very best anywhere in the world. This is achieved through an undergraduate curriculum which places a strong emphasis
on the understanding of fundamental principles rather than specialised knowledge, a postgraduate programme, distinguished
by its interdisciplinary approach and emphasis on research.
Pedagogy
Teaching at the Institute incorporates a cohesive, contextual and nurturing environment for learning. The emphasis is on self-
motivated learning by using information, experience and practice. The teaching methodology aims at using the inputs from core
functional areas to inter-disciplinary issues and problem solving. Students undertake classroom and workshop assignments,
conduct field observations, make presentations and participate in group discussions and seminars and are encouraged to
develop industry linkages.
Evaluation
The academic year consists of two semesters and a summer term. The education system is organised around a credit system
which ensures continuous evaluation of student’s performance and provides flexibility to choose courses of interest and to
progress at an optimum pace suited to student’s ability or convenience. Each course is assigned certain number of credits
depending upon the class contact hours. A minimum number of credits and CGPA are to be completed satisfactorily in order
to qualify for the award of a degree.
The medium of instruction is English.
Curriculum Development
The Senate of the Institute is constantly engaged in reviewing and approving new courses to improve the curriculum. This year
several new minor area programs have been designed with a view to offer a second area of specialization. A major Curriculum
Review is now underway and likely to come up for discussion in the Senate very soon.
Under a new Academic Welfare Scheme introduced by the Institute this year for weak students, a special student advisor is
identified in each department for students who need special help, at the beginning of each semester. Special extra classes
are being conducted for such students and the student advisor closely monitors the attendance and performance of these
students and also provides support to help improve their performance.
The undergraduate and postgraduate programmes are managed by their respective Boards, as follows.

Academic Performance
(April 1, 2012 - March 31, 2013)
All the IITs follow the credits system of performance evaluation, with proportional weighting of courses based on their
importance. The total marks (usually out of 100) form the basis of grades, with a grade value (out of 10) assigned to a range of
marks. Sometimes, relative grading is done considering the overall performance of the whole class.
1786 candidates qualified for the award of various degrees of the Institute at the 43rd Annual Convocation held in October
2012. Details of the same are given in the following graph and Tables I, II and III.

For each semester, the students are graded on a scale of 0 to 10 based on their performance, by taking a weighted average of the
grade points from all the courses, with their respective credit points. Each semester evaluation is done independently and then the
weighted average over all semesters is used to calculate the cumulative grade point average (known as CGPA or CPI—Cumulative
Performance Index). The following table gives the Discipline-wise break-up of CGPA for the two Academic Semesters:

Foundation for Innovation and
Technology Transfer (FITT)
(April 1, 2012 - March 31, 2013)
FITT is a technology transfer organization established by and at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) as a
Registered Society on July 9, 1992. FITT is mandated to be an effective interface with the industry to foster, promote and
sustain commercialization of science and technology. For twenty years now, FITT has been in a mission mode towards devising
innovative ways to create partnerships and linkages with business and the community to enable knowledge transfer for
common good. The team at FITT and the Institute academics have been largely responsible for our successful outreach and
extensive S&T collaborations.
The roles of FITT include: working with business, fostering technology development, technical consultancy, collaborative
R&D, technology commercialization, professional HR development programs, event participation, corporate membership etc.
These roles are necessitated by the key agenda of the Foundation to showcase and transfer the Institute’s “intellectual ware” to
industry and also inject industrial relevance in teaching and research at IIT Delhi.
• Since early days, FITT has secured the status as a Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (SIRO) from the
Government by virtue of its charter to implement, inter-alia, industrial R&D projects. During FY 2012-13, 63 technology
development / transfer projects worth Rs.898.29 lakh have been contracted at FITT.
• FITT manages the Institute’s IP and IPRs. During the aforementioned FY, 64 invention disclosures were processed, out
of which 22 cases were approved for filing patents and 3 licensing deals were closed. To augment its outreach and
technology commercialization efforts, FITT has entered into MoUs / Agreements with specialist outside agencies.
Besides enabling regular industry academia meetings, FITT organized a number of visits by IIT Delhi faculty to
industrial units in order to assess their R&D needs so as to initiate industry-relevant R&D programs at the Institute.
FITT also instrumented the visits of several overseas companies / delegations which helped in fruitful exchanges
between the visiting delegates and the academic community of the Institute.
• FITT addresses capacity building needs in the industry. During this period, 49 Professional Development Programs
were organized, primarily for industry participants for a gross value of Rs. 204.30 lakh.
• The “Professional Candidate Registration” has been adopted towards outreaching the academic courses at the Institute
amongst the targeted segments of industry, research and academic establishments. Through this program, suitably
qualified professionals can undertake relevant semester-long course modules here at IIT Delhi and thus enhance their
knowledge and skill set. 85 candidates participated in this program during the two semesters of the academic year
2012-13.
• As an avenue towards techno-entrepreneurship, FITT has enabled the establishment and operation of a thriving
Technology Business Incubation Unit (TBIU) on the campus. It is a flagship institute program. The objective of the
TBIU is primarily to promote partnership with new technology entrepreneurs and start-up companies, and also
serve as a medium of technology transfer. 12 companies are presently resident at the TBIU. Out of 37 companies
admitted so far in the incubator since its inception in the year 2000, 14 companies have started their commercial
operation after completing their incubation at the Institute and are reported to be growing at a steady pace. The TBIU
companies are working in the technology domains of IT, Biotechnology, Engineering design, Cleantech etc. Of late,
FITT is collaborating with Wallonia Trade and investment Agency (AWEX) of Belgium towards internationalization of
innovation led technology start-ups in the country.
FITT has also been recognized as a TePP (Technopreneur Promotion Programme) Outreach Centre by DSIR (Government) towards
fostering technology entrepreneurship amongst individual innovators and start-ups. The Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium
Enterprises (MSME), Government of India has also extended grants to FITT for promoting innovation amongst micro and small
enterprises leveraging the knowledge resources at IIT Delhi. Seed support in the broad area of ICT is also forthcoming under
the Department of Information Technology (DIT) program – “Technology Incubation and Development of Entrepreneurs” (TIDE)
scheme in operation at FITT. FITT is also a beneficiary of the grant assistance of Rs.1.00 cr. from the Technology Development
Board (TDB) for the specific purpose of providing early stage financial support to start-up units incubated at TBIU. More recently,
FITT has secured the coveted status of a BIG Partner of BIRAC (DBT) towards implementing their Biotechnology Ignition Grant
(BIG) scheme in the country.
FITT has on its roll over 100 corporate members representing small/medium/large scale industrial and R&D units. These members
receive preferential treatment in matters of collaboration with the Institute in addition to information and technical services

Faculty Awards/ Recognitions
(April 1, 2012 - March 31, 2013)
It is a cliché to say that the quality of an academic institution largely depends on its faculty. Our faculty is one of the finest in
the country and is recognized internationally for their quality of research, teaching and curriculum development. They also
contribute greatly for the development of the nation by being associated with a large number of decision making bodies,
providing crucial guidance and advice on policy matters and technical issues. Many of our faculty members serve on the
editorial Boards of reputed journals, peer-review papers for publications, serve on committees for recruitment of professionals,
and are on the Boards of many institutions and organizations. 30 new faculty members have joined the Institute this year, which
has enhanced our competence in several emerging areas, while bringing new energy into our academic endeavors. The people
joining us as faculty members, are amongst the finest available globally, and sought after, by all the reputed graduate schools
of the developed world. Offers of appointment have been issued to 20 selected candidates who are expected to join soon.
Searching and recruitment of bright faculty is one of our most important missions, since therein lies the future of the Institute.
Our Board of Governors is seized of this issue, and has played a very positive and constructive role in approving policies, which
empower the faculty to deliver their best in both teaching and research. On our part, we are trying to reach out to the potential
faculty members through a variety of means, including round-the-year search and recruitment and on-line submission and
processing of applications.
During the period under report, international bibliographic databases have indexed 2484 research articles published by faculty
members and researchers of the institute in international journals including 1696 articles indexed in Scopus, an international
indexing service in Science & Technology and Social Sciences. The faculty members have also presented a similar number
of papers in national and international conferences. Besides, they have also published many books and conducted several
continuing education programmes. The Institute supported participation of 185 faculty members to international conferences
and 106 faculty members for national conferences this year. Many more participated with financial support from sponsored
projects, and other funding agencies. The Institute provides seed research funding to the new faculty upon joining the Institute
to the tune of Rs. 10.00 lakhs (or more when necessary). During the year, 29 Young Faculty Fellowships have been awarded.
To encourage the new faculty for developing research facilities in the area of their expertise, the Institute sanctioned the New
Faculty Research Grant of a total of Rs. 268 lakhs to 23 faculty members during the financial year 2012-2013.
On the initiative of the Director, a meeting with all the faculty members of the Institute is held on a regular basis once in every
semester to share the vision and initiatives taken and also to have an opportunity to receive feedback and expectation from
faculty members. With the approval of Board, the various faculty designations, status, eligibility, limit, duration etc. in respect of
faculty other than regular cadre has been implemented.
Faculty Awards/Recognitions
Our distinguished faculty colleagues continue to make a difference to the world of Science, Engineering, Humanities and
Management, and continue to earn recognition and awards, which bring glory to the Institute. Many of them have been
