ABOUT US
IIT Hyderabad
Always Innovating
Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad (IITH), one of the eight new IITs established in 2008
by the Ministry of Human-Resource Development, is currently located in Hyderabad city and is a part of
history in the making. It started functioning from its temporary campus in August 2008 by admitting
111 B.Tech. students. On 27 February 2009, the foundation stone of IITH was laid by Smt. Sonia Gandhi,
Honourable Chairperson of UPA. It started with just three departments - Computer Science &
Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering and has now grown to include, not
only various other engineering departments but also sciences and Liberal Arts with the required
state–of–the–art labs already established.
The University currently has 2551 students and around 200 faculty members. Its youthful and
dynamic faculty, passionate students and dedicated sta�f, together envision building a premier
institute with the foundational intent being the innovating and cultivating of ideas. With this as its
focus, this �ledgling Institute already boasts over an outlay of over 500 million projects. Tie-ups with
foreign universities and industrial giants provide students with international and national
scholarships. These students secure prestigious industrial & research internships that broaden their
perspectives in technology as well as endowing them with adaptability, versatility, team spirit and a
disciplined work ethic.
I n July 2019 IIT Hyderabad completed 11 years. We have come a long way in the last 11 years. Academically,
we are at the forefront of developing new curricula and programs. We are also at the forefront of research
and development. Our faculty student ratio (1:13); is best amongst all IITs. We have a very strong PG
program. The ratio among Ph.D. students, Masters students and undergraduate students is roughly
30:25:45. Our past placement records are good in most of the departments with an average package of
around 18 lakhs. By Aug 2019, IITH will have a total of 2750 students (of which almost 20% will be female
students), and 205 faculty members. IITH’s sanctioned research funding will be to the tune of Rs.350 crs.
from nearly 300 plus sponsored projects. IITH’s overall citation is 24492 and we have an H-Index of 50. IITH
has strong industry collaboration – we collaborate with nearly 60 industries. Our Japan collaboration is in
full swing with Japanese faculty visiting us and IITH faculty visiting leading Japanese universities on a
regular basis. There is a strong student exchange program with Japan.
IITH has MOUs with at least 50 universities globally, most of them in Japan, USA, Australia, Canada, Europe
and Taiwan.
IITH has three technology incubators – iTIC, Center for Healthcare Entrepreneurship and Fabless Chip
Design Incubator. Moreover, there are 6 research centers –most notable of them being Center of Excellence
in Artificial Intelligence, Nano-technology, Teaching and Learning Center, Design Innovations Center.
On the academic front IITH is innovating and scaling up while maintaining quality. We have B.Tech.
programs in 10 engineering departments, MSc in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, M.A. in
Development Studies, B.Des. and M.Des. in Design, and Ph.D. in all 14 departments. There is strong
emphasis on interdisciplinary academics.
IITH has implemented a very novel academic program referred to as, Fractal Academics – the key idea is to
atomize courses, provide breadth and depth, emphasize courses in liberal arts as well as creative arts,
emphasize project work, and create an interactive learning ambience. In this approach the students will be
well equipped to handle challenges of any job or challenges of post graduate education. IITH o�fers a Minor
in Entrepreneurship to all students, a double major, -- hardworking and enthusiastic student can get two
B.Tech degrees. Students at IITH can enrich their knowledge by opting for a minor and/or an honors
program. IITH is the only institution to o�fer DigiFab (3D-printing) to all first year students.
Overall, IITH has a very invigorating, �lexible and friendly academic program that empowers students to
meet the challenges of any job.
