NEW DELHI: Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati and IIT-BHU Varanasi have signed an agreement to start a joint doctoral programme from July 2021.
The two premier technical institutions have come together to build a "network of excellence" of all IITs, “rather than each one striving to become a “tower of excellence”, states a statement issued by the IIT Guwahati.
The IIT Council has accepted the proposal of the two institutions through which both the institutes are expecting a significant boost in high-quality research and foundation for further academic collaborations.
As per the IIT Guwahati, under the National Education Policy (NEP2020), such educational reforms and academic collaborations between premier educational institutes will promote multidisciplinary academic programs and research for encouraging and promoting a knowledge-based economy of the country.
IIT BHU is considering starting a Joint MTech program on similar lines to provide multi-institutional and multidisciplinary MTech programs. IIT Guwahati has also agreed to be part of this initiative.
