Mission and Vision
• Creating / Building – best technology institution
• How? Where? When?
• For whom? State, country, world
• Best? Better than?
• Base standard – MIT, Stanford, IIT, IISc?
• Lets focus on Academic excellence only!!

Current Scenario: Trans-disciplinary??
Important new areas are trans-disciplinary.• Examples: Nano-science (chm, matl sc, phy, bio, mech,
chem eng.), cognitive science (psyh, comp sc, bio, neurosc, biochem)
Special problem areas acquiring disciplinary status.• Examples: energy, climate change, gene based
therapeutics, sc and tech policy.Societal requirements need merging of traditional areas.• Examples: infrastructure - elec, mech, civil; urban
systems - elec, mech, civil transp; systems engg - math, phy, bio, mech.

Functional boundary conditions
• Areas and problems require strong interdisciplinary orientation, training
• Responsive system with rapid evolutionary changes
• Match societal aspirations with societal needs• Respond to individual student interests and
abilities• System must be responsive to talented and
motivated students• Should provide exits to students who are unable
to or do not want to continue

Foundations
• Learning methods
• Academic framework
• Collaborations
• Corporate Social Responsibility
![Page 6: IITGN: Strong Branding Dhiren Patel. Mission and Vision Creating / Building – best technology institution How? Where? When? For whom? State, country,](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072011/56649e3a5503460f94b2bbd9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Learning methods - Building capability
• Learning methods– Courses (based on need)– Project Work (Relevant to Industry, in tune
with the centres of excellence)– Labs (Stress on synthesis of concepts,
teamwork)– Special summer/winter courses (for basic
developmental courses <technical writing, scientific ethics, performing arts…>)
![Page 7: IITGN: Strong Branding Dhiren Patel. Mission and Vision Creating / Building – best technology institution How? Where? When? For whom? State, country,](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072011/56649e3a5503460f94b2bbd9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Academic framework – Building competitiveness
• Academic framework– Schools instead of departments (Engineering, Natural
Sciences, Humanities/Social Sciences)???– B Tech, M Tech, Ph D – Degree with minor, Degree with entrepreneurship,
Super-specialization, Industry ready– Interdisciplinary – National and International exposure– Centres of excellence (E.g. Infrastructure <Power,
Rail/Road/Ports, IT, Water>)– Research & Consulting
![Page 8: IITGN: Strong Branding Dhiren Patel. Mission and Vision Creating / Building – best technology institution How? Where? When? For whom? State, country,](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072011/56649e3a5503460f94b2bbd9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Collaborations: Global approach, Sustainable
• Collaborations– With multiple countries/organizations– (Robotics – Japan, Manufacturing – Germany, Bio-
med – Canada)– Exchange programs – Internships
• CSR– Local services– Disaster management preparedness– Towards economic growth– Environment friendly technology– Generate capability in preservation
