Rankings should be the least of worries among IITs: IIT Bombay Director



On Sunday, IIT-Bombay Director Subhasis Chaudhuri said that IITs should not worry about the rankings, as long as its students and alumni are successful in real life. He felt that IITs should become more flexible in the curriculum which will provide students with more room for experimentation and innovation. "We can always aspire to better our place, but we should not worry too much about rankings," he said, as he delivered the speech on 69th Foundation Day of the IIT Kharagpur. IITs should concentrate on creating new jobs, new companies and work towards closing the gap with between academics and industries, he added.Mr. Chaudhuri, an alumnus of IIT Kharagpur, said, "If our students and alumni are doing well, that will justify what the IITs are doing."During the foundation day, 19 alumni members were conferred 'The Young Alumni Achievers Awards' by the institute for their achievements in their respective domains.
