IIIT-Delhi and IIT Delhi, two of India’s prestigious research-driven institutes have recently signed an MoU to help students and faculty from both the institutes to collaborate and cooperate with each other in various domains. 

The MoU will enable both the institutes to jointly guide research candidates registered in either of the institutes, jointly propose and engage in research and/or training programs, permit PhD students from one institution to take advanced courses in the other, encourage faculty members from both institutes to jointly formulate and offer advanced courses available to the students from both institutes, jointly organize seminars, conferences, or workshops on topics of mutual interest, and jointly propose centres of excellence, which may be spread over the two institutions.

As an institute that values research and innovation, IIIT-Delhi always focuses on making it easier and more convenient for its students to pursue their ideas, conduct thorough research, and achieve paradigm-shifting breakthroughs. Throughout the pandemic period, several students from IIIT-Delhi have innovated novel solutions to counter the challenges posed by the unprecedented scenario. From launching the WashKaro App that provided crucial bite-sized information on Covid-19 to the CoWIN Alerts bot for Telegram, that notifies the users as soon as the vaccination slots are open in their District/Pincode, the students from IIIT-Delhi have been serving the society during the times of need.
