There are attempts already being made to do this. In past 5 years at IITB I have seen: Student Satellite Project, RaceCar (BAJA) Project, Some very neat summer projects for freshmen, BioFuel project and others. Enthusiastic faculty is now trying on their own time to reach out to students and motivate them. And this was across departments not just CSE or Electrical Engineering.
- sravfeyn 14y agoOh well, without all those projects IIT is not just IIT. There is no lack of projects at IITs. It is the passion and research attitude that is lacking. Most (not all) students involve and finish those projects, essentially to get their CVs pretty. In my BTP presentations half of the Physics Panel sleeps in the presentations! The way of teaching is so narrow, it is about exams, CGP. The professor's towards teaching is so materialistic. There are exceptions. We have only 3 professors who makes subject exciting of around 30 professors.
