Technical Education
- A fresh approach at IIT Jodhpur

A new institute of technology starting in India in 2010 s should reflect on the way technical education has been conducted in the country since the country s independence (accentuate the strengths and eliminate the weaknesses therein), and make new beginnings on a number of fronts that remained unaddressed in the Institutes in the past. This is the precise recipe that we followed at IIT Jodhpur over the past year to cast the master plan of the Institute s academic (and infrastructure) development. Started in 2008-09 with 7 other new IITs, IIT Jodhpur has had the courage to experiment new models of building a technical institute; yes, some worked well and others did not. But, one point is clear, we learnt the courage to think fresh
In keeping with the vision for Indian Institutes of Technology of the 1940s, IIT Jodhpur is being planned and prepared to provide creative technological solutions to meet the technology grand challenges of the nation. Two pronged approach is taken at the Institute to achieve this goal, namely
(1) Technology focus in all activities at the Institute; and
(2) Professionalisation of the Institute for improved efficiency and efficacy in achieving the needed calm in the environment at the
Institute, skills in the personnel, and systems & processes to ensure technology focus.
IIT Jodhpur s development plan rides on one bottom line to establish a top teaching-learning institute doing good quality research addressing the technological challenges of the nation. The key words here are: top, learning, quality, technology and nation. Hence, five pillars were identified to form the framework of IIT Jodhpur s fresh strategic plan.

1. Sectoral Technology Institute
IIT Jodhpur is on a steep development agenda. In the initial years, we are establishing the basics of a Technology Institute with strong teaching and research focus. In the next few years, the institute has set itself the goal of growing in to a Sectoral Technology Institute with strong industrial research, but with limited technology focus areas, like energy and fuels, critical technologies, water, automotives and transport, and healthcare. In the long term, IIT Jodhpur is expected to grow towards providing holistic technology education to its students in association with national institutes in India.
