New IITs - Advantages and Disadvantages
- 1. EDUCATION - NEW IITS “Advantages and Disadvantages ’’
- 2. Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are autonomous public institutes of higher education, located in India. They are governed by the Institutes of Technology Act, 1961 which has declared them as institutions of national importance,[ and lays down their powers, duties, and framework for governance etc. The Institutes of Technology Act, 1961 lists twenty- three institutes located at Bhilai, Chennai, Delhi, Dhanbad, Dharwad, Goa, Guwahati, Jammu, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Mumbai, Roorkee, Bhubaneswar, Gandhinagar, Hyderabad, Indore, Jodhpur, Mandi, Palakkad, Patna, Ropar, Tirupati and Varanasi.
- 3. Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) M.Tech and MS admissions are done on the basis of Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). In addition to B.Tech, M.Tech and MS programs, IITs also award other graduate degrees such as M.Sc in Maths, Physics and Chemistry, MBA, PhD etc. Admission to these programs of IITs is done through Common Admission Test (CAT), Joint Admission Test for Masters (JAM) and Common Entrance Examination for Design (CEED). IIT Guwahati and IIT Bombay offer undergraduate design programmes as well. Joint Seat Allocation Authority 2015 (JoSAA 2015) conducted the joint admission process for a total of 19 IITs.
- 4. Addition of IITs IITs are 'institutions of national importance' established by Institutes of Technology Act, 1961. After India got its Independence, the world was changing. The leaders were able to envisage coming of ' Age of technology 'rather than capital. After Kharagpur became first IIT,different IITs were established that are scattered in different parts of country to maintain regional balance. IITs are internationally respected for the quality of their graduates and teaching.
- 5. Addition of IITs IITs receive comparatively higher grants than any other engineering colleges in India. While the total government funding to most other engineering colleges is around Rs. 10– 20 crores (USD 2–4 million) per year, the amount varies between Rs. 90 crores –1.3 Arab (USD 18–26 million) per year for each IIT. They have advantage in terms of faculty-to-student ratio which is between 1:6 and 1:8.
- 6. Addition of IITs A bill providing for opening six new IITs, including at Jammu and Tirupati, was passed by the Lok Sabha. Under the Institutes of Technology (Amendment) Bill 2016, new IITs will also be started in Palakkad, Goa, Dharward and Bhilai. The Bill also seeks to bring the Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad, within the ambit of the Act. Announcement of HRD ministry's proposal to set up New IITs was debated by educationists but every coin has 2 sides which are evaluated here.

- 8. Advantages More opportunities Scientific progress More number of IITs could attract foreign students New IITs in different parts of the country opportunities for people residing in surrounding areas Upgrading of existing academic institutions like ISM Dhanbad Ease out the competition New institutes with better qualities Better facilities
- 9. Disadvantages Bad situation in terms of primary and secondary education No improvement in existing IITs Number of seats in existing IITs IITs set up in 2008 many have no buildings Increase quantity over quality Competition will be easy Divide between new and old IIT New IITs will be established in the remote areas Facilities will be lagging in old IITs
- 10. Conclusion We have an ever increasing population with number of pass outs increasing every year. In such a scenario, we definitely need more choice of courses with an increase in the number of seats per course in every college. In these prevailing circumstances, there is no harm in increasing the number of seats in IITs than number of IITs, we can manage to maintain the charm and quality of education in all the existing IITs which can’t be achieved in New IITs easily. After increasing in number of seats still be difficult to get into IITs as we have a good creamy layer hovering here and there every year to get quality education. So on a concluding note I would say that there's absolutely no requirement of any more IITs in our nation because we don't want students to qualify IITs with a casual approach and colleges of that stature demand cut throat competition.
