1) Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore India The Indian Institute of Science is a premier research institution of higher learning

located in Bengaluru, India. The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) was conceived as a Research Institute or University of Research by Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata, in the twilight years of the 19th century. A long period of almost thirteen years was to elapse from the initial conception in 1896 to the birth of the Institute on May 27, 1909. IISc currently ranks first in India in terms of research output and quality of faculty (citation and impact factor). It also ranks first among Indian universities (and South Asian universities) in the "Academic ranking of world universities" conducted by the SJTU, China. IISc has been ranked the number one engineering/technology institute among top 67 science institutes in the country.The ranking has been done on basis of publications and citations and research record available between 1999 and 2008 in the Scopus International multidisciplinary, bibliographical database. The Institute spends the highest amount on research among all universities in India. Admissions to IISc are highly competitive, consistently admitting only the top 1 percent of those attempting the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering(GATE). Established: Type: Director: Location: Website: 1909 Research Institution P. Balaram Bangalore, Karnataka, India www.iisc.ernet.in

The Institute was the first to introduce (i) Masters programs in engineering; (ii) more recently, the Integrated Ph. D. Programs in Biological, Chemical, Physical and Mathematical Sciences for science graduates; (iii) the new IISc Young Fellowship program for the first 20 rank holders at the + 2 level; and (iv) IISc Young Engineering Fellowship program for merited III year B. E. / B. Tech. students. The library was established in 1911 and it is one of the first three departments started in the Institute (the other two are Departments of General and Applied Chemistry and Electrotechnology). It is regarded as one of the best scientific and technical libraries in India. Hostel facilities: The institution provides on-site residential facilities for both male and female attendees to the institution. It also provides accommodation for married attendees in the form of family friendly accommodation. Some of the older hostels in the Indian Institute of Science campus are Ashwini, Bharini, Krithika and Rohini. Interestingly, these are named after the Hindu names for lunar mansions. Similarly, the apartments for married attendees of the institution are named Kaveri, Kapila and Bhaskara, which are prominent holy rivers and Vedic Sages in Hinduism. Degrees offered: Degrees offered by the institute may be broadly classified into two categories: Degrees by Research (PhD, integrated PhD, and MS(Engg.)), and degrees by coursework (ME/MTech/MBA/MDes). Research programs leading to M.S(Engg)/MSc/PhD degrees are the main thrust in many departments. The program has a limited amount of course work, essentially to prepare the student to carry out the research, but the main emphasis is on the thesis work. PhD, MSc and

M.S(Engg)degrees each year, which is probably the largest for any institution in India. The annual intake of research students is approximately 250 with several candidates sponsored from educational institutions and industries. Admission Procedure: Admission into IISc is highly competitive. Usually only the top 1 percent candidates qualifying the GATE examination are able to clear the cutoff for M. E. / M. Tech. admissions. Depending on the department and the number of students, the cutoff can get much higher. Admission to research programmes of the Institute, both PhD and M.Sc(Engg), is based on career analysis and (possibly) multiple rounds of technical interviews in the campus.

2) About Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IIT Kanpur) in India IIT Kanpur was established by an Act of Parliament in 1959. IIT Kanpur is one of the top technological institutes of India. The first Director of the Institute was Dr. P. K. Kelkar. The institute was started in December 1959 in a room in the Canteen Building of the Harcourt Butler Technological Institute at Agricultural Gardens in Kanpur. In 1963, the Institute moved to its present location, on the historic Grand Trunk Road near the village of Kalyanpur in Kanpur district. rime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru had realized that to keep pace with the ever changing world of science and technology, it is necessary to collaborate closely with the outside world. The Kanpur Indo-American Programme (1962-1972) at IIT-Kanpur was a stride in this direction. During the period 1962-72, the Institute received technical assistance under KIAP from a consortium of nine leading Institutions of U.S.A. Under the program, faculty members from these Institutions assisted the Institute in the setting up of the academic programs and development of laboratories for instruction as well as research. The Institute now has its own residential campus spread over 1,055 acres of land, about 2,000 undergraduate and 2,000 postgraduate students, 326 faculty and more than 1,000 supporting staff. The combined record of its past and present faculty and students along with the alumni spread across the world is awe-inspiring.

7) About Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) in India In 1956, when Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Prime Minister of India, the German Government offered technical assistance for establishing an institute of higher education in engineering in India. This resulted in the signing of the first Indo-German Agreement in Bonn in 1959, for the establishment of an Indian Institute of Technology at Madras. The first Indo-German Agreement provided for the services of German professors and 5 foremen, training facilities for 20 Indian faculty members and the supply of scientific and technical equipment for the establishment of the Central Workshop and 20 laboratories at IIT Madras. The Indian Institute of Technology Madras was inaugurated in 1959 by Prof. Humayun Kabir, the Union Minister for Scientific Research and Cultural Affairs. Dr.A.Lakshmanaswamy assumed office as the first Chairman of the Board of Governors and Dr.B.Sengupto as the first Director of the Institute. The Institute was declared as an Institute of National Importance by the Parliament of India in 1961. IIT Madras celebrates its Golden Jubilee this year. The visit of President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Dr.Heinrich Lubke, in 1962 added new dimension to the Indian Institute of Technology Madras in the form of the Indo-German Technical Assistance Program. In 1973, Shri C.Subramaniam, Minister for Industrial Development and Science and Technology, inaugurated the Industrial Consultancy Centre. The institute has conferred honorary degrees of Doctor of Science and Doctor of Technology (honoris causa) to eminent personalities like Nobel Laureate (Physics) Dr.John Bardeen (1973), former Minister for Foreign Affairs (FRG) Mr.Hans Dietrich Genscher (1973) and former Chairman, Atomic Energy Commission, Dr.Raja Ramanna (1983) among others.
