Since its inception the institute has been involved with more than 275 Research and Development (R&D) projects worth more than Rs. 120 crore. In the past 10 years, the institute has signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with as many as 11 international and 12 national universities.[3]

History edit

IIT Mandi's permanent campus (about 14 km (8.7 mi) from Mandi) consists of the South and North campuses connected by a narrow neck. The South campus is on the left bank of the Uhl River below Kamand village. The North campus is along the Kataula Khad (stream) opposite Salgi village.[4]: 10 

The Foundation Stone was laid on 24 February 2009[5][6] and the institution was registered as a society in Uttarakhand on 20 June 2009. The first batch of 97 students were admitted in July 2009 with classes starting in IIT Roorkee, the mentoring IIT, on 27 July 2009.[7]

A transit campus at Government Post graduate College, Mandi was handed over by the Himachal Pradesh Government on 16 November 2009.[8]

Timothy A. Gonsalves was the founding Director (15/1/2010-30/6/2020), with R. C. Sawhney, serving as the first Registrar.[9]

The institute became an IIT under The Institutes of Technology (Amendment) Act, 2011,[10] with the intention to expand the reach and to enhance the quality of technical education in the country. The Act was passed in the Lok Sabha on 24 March 2011[11] and by the Rajya Sabha on 30 April 2012.[12]

The Kamand campus ground-breaking ceremony, to mark the start of construction, was held on 13 April 2012.[4]: 118

Having started its journey in 2009 with 538 acres (218 ha) of grassland on the banks of the river Uhl, 460 kilometres (290 mi) away from New Delhi, IIT Mandi has a unique campus in the challenging yet serene Himalayan mountains.[14][15] The campus is split into two halves: the North and South Campus. Proper communication has been facilitated by the college for students, staffs and faculty for communication between north and south campus.

Sports, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities are also of high importance for the institute. In addition to the existing indoor badminton courts, swimming pool, table tennis hall, football and cricket fields and gymnasium, the institute has a pavilion, a hockey ground with kiosk, and tennis, volleyball and basketball courts. The institute has a medical unit in the South campus and a Health Care Center with 3 Medical officers, an ENT specialist, and a Pediatrician, in the North campus.

The institute has also set up within its campus important support services, such as creches, a botanical garden with a rich diversity of local plants, children's parks, stationery shops, a campus school, canteens, cafes, banks and ATMs, for the convenience of campus residents. Library and book-nooks are also present in both North and South Campus. The auditorium is used for various occasions and programs organized at IIT Mandi.

Green activities edit

Efficient waste-management practices are held in high priority for the campus. The waste generated at each source is segregated through the active participation of residents. A Bio-gas generator of 150 kg (330 lb) feed capacity has been installed for the digestion of biodegradable wastes. Sewage Treatment Plants have been set up to ensure that all waste-water generated in the campus gets suitably treated before discharge and reuse. Special efforts have also been put towards the identification of local flora and fauna, and in ensuring that the campus growth continues to be in harmony with them. Future plans include reuse of treated waste-water, development of plant nursery, better segregation and in-house composting.[16]

IIT Mandi was honored with the Prestigious Green University Award in COP 28, UAE. The award was conferred by Green Mentors, an NGO holding special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) in the United States.
