IIT Delhi: IIT-Delhi Director: It’s time India internationalises the NIRF

The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) is transparent, and it should now have an international outlook. Probably we can identify 50 top universities in the world and compare our institutions with these 50 institutions.

IIT Delhi:
THE INDIAN INSTITUTE ofTechnology (IIT) Delhi, reportedly, hopes to get students back to the campus starting July 2 in a phased manner, but the date may change depending on how the Covid-19 situation unfolds.“These

are uncertain times. Students whose entire semesteris about taking lectures and no laboratory work, may study from home,” says V Ramgopal Rao, Director, IIT Delhi. In an interview with Vikram Chaudhary, he talks about the future of campus studies and why IITs are not happy with the way global rankings are devised.

There are different opinions globally on how universities should restart classes. What are your views?

Some American universities, I think, have gone overboard—they have said that till summer 2021 there won’t be physical classes. That is not going to work for IITs. At IIT Delhi, it will depend on how the Covid-19 situation evolves. At the same time, if a student has internet connectivity and can take lectures at home, I don’t see a reason for him/her to come to the campus right now. Our classes are usually jam-packed and it may be difficult to follow

social distancing norms. But engineering curriculum has a lot of laboratory work…

That can be done once students are back to the campus. For example, if they have to do 10 lab experiments in a semester, and earlier if they did one experiment per week, they can now do those 10 experiments in 10 days once they are here.
