“Knowledge will bring you the opportunity to make a difference.” ― Claire Fagin.

These words continuously inspire us to impart knowledge in the young minds so as to enable

them to create a difference in the society. This vision further facilitates us to achieve our

motto of nurturing excellence which has helped in transforming IITM as a leading institute

in Delhi NCR Region. The Institute believes that learning is possible beyond the scope of

course books and hence efforts are consistently made to bring industry knowledge into the

course curriculum through lectures, seminars and industry-academia interaction. A wide

horizon builds a greater understanding in the young minds about industry dynamics and

prepares them for future challenges. Our recent milestones achieved in curricular, co-

curricular and extra-curricular activities are a result of collective efforts by faculty, staff and

students which IITM family shall always be proud of. It is my endeavour that IITM should

continually excel in all spheres of teaching, learning, research, faculty development and

industry consultancy. Wishing that IITM’s success story continues in the years to come!

The year that went by was quite eventful as we welcomed a new batch of dynamic young minds on one

end while on the other we have started preparing ourselves to part with our final year students who are

already future ready leaders. Year on year, IITM has been working relentlessly in developing young

talents who make a mark for themselves in the society. Like every institute of repute, IITM also

registers many notable achievements with the passage of every semester, whether through curricular,

co-curricular or extra-curricular activities, contributing to all round student development. This,

however, has been possible as we believe that it is our collective institutional responsibility to prepare

our students for the challenges of the future. This newsletter is a medium through which the institute’s

achievements are showcased to our valuable stakeholders. All this and much more is reflected in this

edition of ‘PRATIBIMBA’ where students’ achievements in all areas have been aptly depicted. I shall

always be extremely proud of all my students, faculty members and staff who are tirelessly working

towards making IITM an institution par excellence.
