Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi (aka. IIIT-Delhi or IIIT-D) was created as a State University by an act of Delhi Government (The IIIT Delhi Act, 2007) empowering it to do research and development and grant degrees. IIIT-Delhi was officially established on 10^th June, 2008 as per this notification in the Delhi Gazette. First class (for B.Tech (CSE) students) was held on 8th September, 2008.

The institute began with its first batch of 60 B.Tech students in 2008. Since then, it has come a long way with nearly 20 faculties specializing in diverse areas of Computer Science, and nearly 250 students consisting of 3 batches of B.Tech, 1 batch of M.Tech and 2 batches of PhD. In a relatively short time, it has earned a good reputation in India and abroad for being a center of quality education and research in IT. AICTE has recognized us as an Institute of National Importance, along with other IIITs.

Mission and Vision:

The mission of IIIT-Delhi is to be a global centre of excellence in Information Technology education, training and research. Its twin aims are:

• To carry out advanced research and development in information and software technologies, and in leveraging IT in specific domain areas.
• To train and educate, at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, engineers of outstanding ability who can become innovators and new product creators.

It aims to encourage innovation and entrepreneurship in specified domain areas of IT. Towards this end it plans to organize itself as a conglomerate of R&D Centers, some of which would be in partnership with different companies and global organizations. All centers will also be engaged in teaching and thesis guidance. These centers, with various labs, will be the hub of activity, with active contribution from faculty and students- B.Tech, M.Tech and PhD.

Eligibility:

B.Tech: 80% or more marks in the aggregate and 80% or more in Mathematics in class XII from CBSE/ICSE/IB board or equivalent. If a board has more than five subjects for aggregate, then best five will be taken.

Additional criteria for admission in ECE program: Physics in Class XII. If the result of 10+2 is not declared by the respective board, then the student can sit for exam, but at the time of counselling he/she has to produce the certificate of class 10+2 result fulfilling the eligibility criteria.

M.Tech: The minimum eligibility criterion for this program is B.Tech./B.E. in CS/IT/ECE/EE with at least 7.5 CGPA (out of 10) or 75% or equivalent. We expect the candidates to have proper foundations in algorithms and theory, good programming skills, in particular, systems programming, and ability to work hard. Requirements may be relaxed for candidates with relevant experience in the area of security or database.

MCA/M.Sc (CS/IT/ECE) degree is considered equivalent to the BTech/BE degree. Such students are also eligible to apply with the condition that in their undergraduate (i.e. B.Sc.) they should have Mathematics as one of the courses. The marks requirement is same as that given above for BTech/BE degrees.

Ph.D: IIIT-Delhi is looking for candidates who have solid foundations in CS/Maths (including good programming expertise in relevant domain), and interest in pursuing research in one of the above mentioned areas. Specific eligibility criteria are given below.

For CS/IT areas: The student must meet one of the following.

B.Tech / BE / MTech / MS / ME in CS / IT / ECE / EE

• CGPA at least 7.5 on a scale of 10 (or equivalent) in IITs/NITs, or in the top 10% in his/her CS/IT/ECE/EE batch from other institutions. If your institute does not provide CGPA in the transcript, then at least 70% marks is required to be eligible.
• MCA/MSc(CS/IT/ECE) degree is considered equivalent to the BTech/BE degree. Such students are also eligible to apply with the condition that in their undergraduate (i.e. B.Sc.) they should have Mathematics as one of the courses and keen interest/capability/commitment in pursuing research. The marks requirement is same as that given above for BTech/BE degrees.

MSc in Mathematics:

• At least 70% marks in both B.Sc and M.Sc.
• Strong inclination towards CS.
• Atleast two CS courses (such as Programming, Data Structures, Algorithms, Theory of Computation, Discrete Maths etc.) in BSc/MSc.

For GIS domain: The student must meet one of the following.

• Students with background in technical degree (B.E./B.Tech./M.E./M.Tech. in CS/IT/EE/ECE) as specified above.
• B.Sc. (in any science-subject) with minimum 70% marks, and, M.Sc degree with minimum 70% marks in Geology, Geophysics, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, Life Sciences, Physics, Mathematics, Information Technology or Geoinformatics.
• M.Tech. in Geoscience or Geoinformatics with minimum 7.5 CGPA on a scale of 10 (or equivalent).

GATE/GRE scores are optional. Requirements may be relaxed for exceptional candidates with publications/ R&D/software development experience in their area of interest or those from institutes of national and international repute.
