Indian Institutes of Information Technology

Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs) are a group of institutes of higher education in India, focused on information technology. Five of them are established, funded and managed by the Ministry of Human Resource Development. The rest are set up on the public-private partnership (PPP) model.

Formation

The IIITs at Allahabad, Gwalior, Jabalpur, Kancheepuram and Kurnool were set up and are now funded and managed by Ministry of Human Resource Development.[1]

The addition of new IIITs as was proposed under the Indian Institutes of Information Technology Bill 2010. This bill, renamed as The Indian Institutes of Information Technology Bill, 2014, was passed by the Parliament on December 1, 2014. The bill also grants the status of Institutes of National Importance (INI) upon the four IIITs in Allahabad, Gwalior, Jabalpur and Kancheepuram.[2]

Besides above fully government funded IIITs, fifteen IIITs have also been set up on the public-private partnership (PPP) model, funded by the central government, state governments and industry partners in the ratio 50:35:15. On 9th August 2017, The Indian Institutes of Information Technology (Public-Private Partnership) Act, 2017 has been notified in the Gazette of India. [3] The Act confers the status of Institutes of National Importance to fifteen IIITs set up on the public-private partnership (PPP) mode in Vadodara, Guwahati, Sri City, Kota, Tiruchirapalli, Kalyani, Una, Sonepat, Lucknow, Kottayam, Senapati (Manipur), Dhawad, Pune, Nagpur and Ranchi,
