IITs Abroad May Be Called 'Indian International Institute Of Technology'

New Delhi: According to sources, the faculty members from the esteemed technical colleges here may be sent on deputations abroad and the offshore campuses of IITs may be renamed “India International Institute of Technology.” The ratio of Indian students in foreign universities must be less than 20%, they stated, even if IITs abroad may be free to choose their student populations.

“The Centre for the Global Expansion of IITs formed a committee, and it has given its proposals. It has been argued that the specific higher education institution should own the right to launch an IIT abroad (HEI). Indian International Institute of Technology at xxxx (location) is a possible name for the new institutions “they informed PTI.

“There should be a provision to depute faculty from an existing IIT to an institute abroad. This is particularly important in formative years of the new institute as it may gain substantially from experience of the faculty here,” they added. Several IITs have been receiving requests from the Middle East and South Asian countries to set up their campuses.
