Indian Institute of Technology Patna is one of the new IITs established by an Act of Parliament in 2008. The city of Patna, thecapital of the State of Bihar, has historical significance. It was a knowledge centre in the past which attracted visitors and scholars from manyplaces all around the world. Some of the historical legends from this region include Lord Gautam Buddha, Lord Mahavir, Guru GovindSingh, the famous astronomer Aryabhata and the first President of India, Dr. Rajendra Prasad.

Currently IIT Patna has 3 schools with 7 departments, namely, Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering and MechanicalEngineering in the School of Engineering and Technology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics in the School of Basic Sciences and

Humanities and Social Sciences in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. IIT Patna offers B. Tech programme in Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. Also it has started Ph. D programme in all seven disciplinesmentioned above. IIT Patna is developing fast and would like to come up as an institute of excellence promoting intelligent, hard working andtechnically curious minds. We have already developed state-of-the-art infrastructure including classrooms and laboratories in impartingworld class education. We have a wide range of research programmes, and many curricular and extra curricular events to ignite the minds ofB.Tech students. In order to raise the quality of our education and research, we have already signed MoUs with three US universities and somemore MoUs are in the process of finalization. A few B.Tech students visited USA last year in this connection. We are promoting exchangeprogrammes with the best schools in the world, and also a large number of scientists and technologists have visited IIT Patna campus during thelast two years. I envision developing this institute as one of the top institutes of overall education.

We plan to train our students in various industries so that knowledge gained in the academic institute is fruitfully utilized. In this regard, I wouldwelcome the industries in India and abroad to come forward and train our students so that they can be the future of India and the world at largeand IIT Patna can produce competent engineers and scientists with good human values. I would also like to invite all prospective trainers andemployers to visit IIT Patna and interact with our students and professors and assess the training and development programmes in IIT Patna.If interested in making an early e-placement/training talks, please let us know the preferred dates. Students have also prepared a booklet to help
