ABOUT DA-IICT
Dhirubhai Ambani Insttute of Informaton and Communicaton Technology (DA-IICT) is a
pioneer in the eld of ICT. It was established under an Act of Gujarat State Legislature (Act
no. 6 of 2003) and recognized by UGC as a statutory university. DA-IICT is a prominent
educatonal and research insttuton that aims at building a knowledge-based society
founded on intellectual compettveness for global leadership. It is located in
Gandhinagar, Gujarat, with a beautful lush green campus. Highly qualied faculty,
supported by state-of-the-art infrastructure, bring research-led teaching to the
classroom, creatng a new class of ICT engineers who will be commited to a vision of
excellence both in professional life and personal. In additon to the unique undergraduate
programme B.Tech.(ICT) - the insttute oers M.Tech.(ICT), M.Sc.(IT), M.Sc.(ICT in ARD),
M.Des.(CD) and Ph.D programs which are designed to develop students comprehension
of technology both within the broad vision of science and in the understanding of
business management and social environment. DA-IICT has emphasized interdisciplinary
research right from its incepton, and research initatves at DA-IICT are aimed at
technological development and enhancing interactons with leading industries and
research organizatons in India and abroad.

ICT PIONEER
DA-IICT is a forerunner in the eld of ICT. This fundamental innovaton, combining
Electronics and Communicaton Engineering (ECE) and Computer Sciences and
Engineering (CSE), was embedded in the large matrix of interdisciplinary subjects
including Design, Science and Management, Film and Animaton along with the
traditonal Humanites and Social Sciences. This vision, we are proud to say, goes beyond
the traditonal idea of Liberal Arts wedded to an technology insttute. It visualizes the
student as a professional and as a citzen dealing with knowledge systems at large but
with core competence in ICT.
The curriculum designed by eminent professors very well exemplies the convergence of
skills required by ICT. Research and development is the most important component of the
educaton system, which puts the insttute at par with many other reputed insttutes
in the country. Projects, which are aimed at providing practcal knowledge and
experience, form an integral component of the educaton system. The curriculum is
designed to produce competent and condent engineers with knowledge and expertse
to meet the needs of current and future world.
4
DA-IICT oers a unique four-year Undergraduate Program leading to the Degree of Bachelor of
Technology in Informaton and Communicaton Technology - B.Tech. (ICT). "ICT" embodies the
convergence of Computer, Electronics and Communicaton Systems and has obtained wide
acceptance as a distnct discipline. Since technological courses are introduced from the very rst
semester, the student has the necessary background to specialize and delve deeper into specic
sub-areas of knowledge within ICT in the later part of the Program. It is also expected that ICT
graduates would enjoy a special niche since they have certain performance capabilites not found
in conventonal CSE and/or ECE graduates. This is because given the unique interdisciplinary
structure of the four-year-long B.Tech. program, the student acquires a good balance between the
breadth demanded by comprehension at the systems level and the depth demanded by scientc
understanding of the fundamentals.
Electve courses consttute the bulk of the curriculum in the third and fourth years of study, which
means that the student has the freedom to acquire prociency in her/his elds of interest. Group
electves dierentate between students of core Informaton Technology, core Electronics and core
Communicatons elds. Science electves are courses oered in the areas of Mathematcs and
Engineering Sciences. Technical electves cover technical courses from various elds of
Informaton and Communicaton Technology, and Open electves are courses oered from areas
like Humanites, Social Sciences, Management and Engineering Arts including Design, which are
not covered in the technical electves. The blend of theoretcal, technical and humanites courses
available ensures a distnctve mental development of the students, whereby they are equally
adept in the understanding of the theoretcal foundatons, practcal applicatons and social and
cultural context related to the technology they are studying. Projects, which are aimed at
providing practcal knowledge to students, form a signicant component in the educaton.

nance).
To support research and development, a full range of required infrastructure has been
established, including well-equipped laboratories, specialized equipment, campus wide
networking, and high-speed internet access and subscripton to hundreds of print and online
journals. An important aim of the research and development actvites is to stmulate and
enhance the research ability and potental of students who have the interest and apttude to carry
out innovatve research. DA-IICT Centre for Entrepreneurship and Incubaton (DCEI) was started in
2007 as a launch pad for students and faculty who wish to turn their technical inventveness into
successful businesses. To provide impetus to the various incubaton actvites at DCEI, the
Department of Informaton Technology (DIT), Government of India has sanctoned a grant worth
Rs. 1.5 crores under the Technology Incubaton and Development of Entrepreneurship (TIDE)
scheme. Direct nancial assistance will be provided to start-ups from the funding sanctoned by
DIT.
The Insttute has ongoing collaboratons with many universites and organizatons throughout the
world. Under an MoU with TCS, a few selected PhD scholars of DA-IICT could be selected as TCS
scholars. The Insttute has already signed an MoU with Space Applicatons Center (SAC), ISRO to
admit SAC scientsts for the doctoral program at DA-IICT. Under an MoU with ERICSSON, a

Naga Vishnukanth Irukulapat (B.Tech. 2009) - EPhD student at
Chalmers University of Technology Besides the best tmes with
friends, prof's, there are three main things that I enjoyed during my
BTech days: interdisciplinary technical courses and freedom to choose
whatever we want to; non-technical courses which gave a whole
dierent perspectve of technology and society; extra curricular
actvites and freedom to start student clubs and partcipate in existng
ones. All of these are playing very important role in my current work
and also in my day-to-day actvites in my thinking process and viewing
at technology. I am very thankful for the teachers and friends who
made those days very memorable.

various topics in ICT and at the same tme allows them nvolved in
research. Also, various humanites courses oered at DA-IICT gives
students a broader perspectve of things, giving us an edge over other
students. I think DA-IICT's biggest contributon is that, that it has
enabled and provided me with the tool-set to quickly grasp any new
thing and put it to practce.
