IIT-Bhubaneswar plans to set up three separate schools — School of Materials and Mineral Engineering, School of Ocean and Environmental Sciences and School of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering.
Madhusudan Chakraborty, director of IIT-Bhubaneswar said: “IIT-Kharagpur will have a borderless academic environment. We will have the concept of schools rather than departments and we will encourage the academic staff to work in an interdisciplinary environment.”
The institute also plans to introduce PhD programmes from this academic session.
IIT-Bhubaneswar was registered on July 22 last year and classes resumed the following day at the campus of IIT-Kharagpur.
