History

In 1956, the German Government offered technical assistance for establishing an institute of higher education in engineering in India. The first Indo-German agreement in Bonn, West Germany for the establishment of the Indian Institute of Technology at Madras was signed in 1959. IIT Madras was started with technical, academic and financial assistance from the Government of West Germany; and at the time was the largest educational project sponsored by the West German Government outside West Germany. This has led to several collaborative research efforts with universities and institutions in Germany over the years.^[1] Although official support from the German government has ended, several research efforts involving the DAAD program and Humboldt Fellowships exist. DAAD can have several meanings: German_Academic_Exchange_Service Direct action against drugs, a cover name for the Irish Republican Army This is a disambiguation page — a navigational aid which lists other pages that might otherwise share the same title. ...

Student activities

IIT Old Madras buses.

Most students at IIT Madras live in the hostels, where a large number of extracurricular activities complement the hectic academic routine. The campus has 16 hostels, of which two (Sharavati and Sarayu) are exclusively occupied by girls. Before Sharavati was constructed, all the hostels had dining facilities attached; these mess halls have all been closed down. Sharavati and the four seven-storeyed men's hostels do not have mess halls. Dining facilities are now provided in two large centralized halls dubbed 'Vindhya' and 'Himalaya' . Hostels in IITM may accommodate undergraduate and/or graduate students, though they tend to keep the two separate. Students are assigned to hostels by the Institute Administration after at the time of admission, and usually spend the entire period of their stay in the Institute in the same hostel.
