IIT Madras (2018)

A friend of mine is an alumnus of IIT Madras and was a part of the Department of Management Studies (DoMS). This is his input on what makes the institute unique.

  • German Connection: It is the third oldest IITs presently built with financial and technical support from Germany.
  • Campus: The whole campus is quite green and serene. The endangered blackbuck and the spotted deer roam around free on the campus feeling safe amidst the students.
  • Student Activity: An activity club exclusive for students to take part in is present for the students- suitable for their interests.
  • No time restriction: The campus doesn't restrict the student's entry and exit time.
  • IIT-M research park: The purpose of this research park is to motivate innovation and support startups that come with great infrastructure, R&D support, and an excellent faculty base.
  • IIT-M lingo: You would see a unique blend of five languages at IIT-M, which are- Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Hindi, and English.
  • OAT- Open Air Theatre: The capacity of this OAT is for 7000 students. Every Saturday at 8 PM, these people air movies in English, Hindi, and even regional languages. This hall also hosts various concerts and functions.
  • Fastest computing system: With a computing power that encompasses 97 teraflops, the IBM Virgo Supercluster, present at P.G. Senapathy Centre for the Computing Resources, happens to be one of the fastest among all education systems around!.
  • 85% mandatory attendance: You have to maintain an attendance record of 85%.

Everything mentioned in the points sums up how IIT Madras is. Take pride in being associated with it.
