Dean of Academic Programmes, IIT Dharwad

I am pleased to invite you to our esteemed institute on behalf of the students,faculty and the staff of IIT Dharwad, to participate in placements for the final year students and internships for the pre-final year students.

IIT Dharwad’s course structure is designed to incorporate more hands-on approach with the intention to provide students the, necessary skills required to contribute to the practical world of engineering. Most courses include “Course Projects” which the students conceive and are then guided by our knowledgable faculty. Our capable and enthusiastic students contribute to their peers‘ learning in group projects, acting as Teaching assistants and even writing manuals for new courses or making changes to pre-existing ones.

...

As an infant IIT, students form committees to improve their academic productivity and “college experience”. Each student contributes by working through his/her strengths, covering their peers’ weaknesses and helping to turn those weaknesses to strengths.

I look forward to your participation in the placements for the final year students and internships for the pre-final year students, hoping that your visit shall begin a promising and an everlasting relationship between the Institute and your organization in the days ahead.
