An IIT in Medak
THE establishment of the nations eighth Indian Institute of Technology at Yeddumailaram this academic year is a feather in the districts cap. Though it is temporarily located in the residential campus of the Ordnance Factory, about 40 km from Hyderabad, it will have its own campus in another four years at Kandi on National Highway-9. The Union Ministry of Human Resource Development plans to spend Rs.1,800 crore for the development of the IIT in the first three years; the State government has also promised funds. The main focus will be on development of laboratories and other research facilities in the IIT, says Prof. C.V.R. The students of IIT Hyderabad would also have the choice of pursuing internships and research in private companies or government organisations in Japan.
