DIRECTOR’S REPORT The Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) was established in 1959 and declared an institute of national importance by an Act of Parliament in 1961. From modest but firm beginnings in 1964, when 91 B.Tech. and 15 M.Sc. degrees were awarded. On the day of the 52nd convocation, I am proud to report, we are crossing another milestone—we awarded more than 2000 degrees in a single year for the first time. The number of Ph.D. degrees awarded has increased by 18% to 212 this year, crossing 200 for the first time. Our full complement of 790 undergraduate and Dual Degree students, after the capacity increase effected between 2008 and 2010, are gradu- ating at the 52nd convocation. The institute published last year its Strategic Plan for 2014–2020, wherein our targets were spelt out for all the activities that inform life and work at the Institute. I now share with you some snapshots of our achievements during the academic year 2014–2015 with reference to our Plan. 1.1. Degree Programmes A key Plan objective is the revision of our undergraduate curricula to permit the students more choice in the courses they take. This has become imperative in a fast-changing world where aspirations are themselves moving targets. In the new curriculum that comes into effect from the oncoming academic year, the student will be given the latitude to choose on average 40% of the courses. Students can thus pursue newly discovered passions or upgrade to a Dual Degree programme, stay on for an M.S. in Entrepreneurship or simply sample interesting courses in various disciplines. An ever-increasing number of masters’ students are discovering the excitement of research at IIT Madras. In 2014–2015, a total of 59 students upgraded to the Ph.D. programme, while 73 high achievers were admitted to it directly after their bachelor’s degrees. A further 33 industry professionals also enrolled for their Ph.D. degrees, indicating a healthy growth in our interaction with industry. Overall, the Ph.D. intake per year has crossed our Plan target of 80% of the faculty strength, putting us on course to achieving the Ph.D. graduation target by 2020. Our intense transnational collaborations have resulted in the formalisation of several joint-doctorate super- vision agreements, including one that was signed with the President of Purdue University during his visit in November 2014. Four more joint doctoral programme agreements were signed in 2014–2015 to add to the existing four: the new ones are with the University of Melbourne, University of Technology Sydney and Curtin University, in Australia, and with the University of Duisburg, Essen, in Germany. The fledgeling Centre for Technology and Policy Studies (CTaP) has launched an elective course, ‘Technology and Public Policy’, that is jointly taught by faculty members from across departments. 1.2. Academic Research In 2014–2015, our faculty members and research scholars published 1089 papers in reputed international journals and 105 in national journals, representing a sharp growth of 30% over last year. They also presented 533 research papers at international conferences and 153 papers at national conferences, demonstrating a staggering growth of more than 50%. These are but harbingers, with a scorching pace being set by our growing band of research scholars and faculty, leading to a sharp rise in our international research profile. 1.2.1. Snapshots of research At the risk of sounding arcane, I would like to place before you a few examples of the high-quality research carried out by our 212 Ph.D. and 157 M.S. scholars who graduated at the 52nd convocation. H.V. Raghav, of the Department of Aerospace Engineering, addressed the strategic use of flare countermea- sures and defense missiles for protecting AEW&C systems and non-manoeuverable aircraft. R. Jayendiran, of the Department of Applied Mechanics, made novel contributions towards understanding and modelling the non-linear behaviour of some 1–3 piezocomposites. Soumi Bairagi, of the Department of Biotechnology, studied impaired circulating vascular progenitor cells and altered angiopoietin systems and correlated these and vascular abnormalities observed in polycystic amenorrheic females. S. Balakrishnan, of the Department of Chemical Engineering, developed a successful method to simulate fouling deposits of three Indian coal types by using chemical equilibrium calculations and binary eutectoid formations. Through an ambitious objective of addressing various problems in metal optics, Maturi Renuka, of the Department of Chemistry, presented a complete set of frequency and wave-vector-dependent linear response tensors and outlined a formalism of macroscopic electrodynamics that uses scalar and vector potentials as fundamental building blocks.

  • Draupadi” and “Behind the Bodice” Anoushka Sinha
    Language, Literature, and Interdisciplinary Studies (LLIDS) ISSN: 2547-0044 http://ellids.com/archives/2019/10/3.1-Sinha.pdf CC Attribution-No Derivatives 4.0 International License www.ellids.com Resistance as Embodied Experience: A Study of Mahasweta Devi’s “Draupadi” and “Behind the Bodice” Anoushka Sinha Something fearful has happened somewhere. The nation doesn’t know it. (Mahasweta Devi, “Behind the Bodice,” emphasis added) Experience and knowledge might seem interchangeable terms. However, when theoretically examined, they pose a conflicting di- lemma in their respective nature and relation with each other. On one hand, knowledge is primarily derived from experience. The intrinsic characteristic of intimacy and immediacy of any experience catego- rizes it as highly subjective. Knowledge, on the other hand, is catego- rized as objective, pertaining to a certain universal appeal. Hereby arises a schism between the two concepts: experience and knowledge. This paper sets out to interrogate the complex relationship between the two concepts through a critical examination of Mahasweta Devi’s short fiction, “Draupadi” (1981) and “Behind the Bodice” (1996). The protagonists of these stories emerge as agents of resistance as the body becomes a crucial site of embodiment of experience. The complexity of experience and its role in the formation of the subject is explored through the course of this paper. Nation building became a significant enterprise in the forma- tion of the identity of the postcolonial India. This identity was prem- ised upon a certain idea of uniformity which led to the homogenization of the nation’s people into a particular perspective. Such perspective, in modern day liberal democracies, is exercised by the state and its various apparatuses (both repressive as well as ideological) to form a singular notion of the nation based on dominant/majoritarian views, thus stripping off its heterogeneity.

  • Driving the Change from Computers to Computerisation
    Driving the Change from Computers to Computerisation Excerpts from the book Icons of Indian IT By by Anand Parthasarathy & S Sadagopan 2018 / 148 pages / Hardcover / Rs. 1995 ISBN: 978-8183284851 / Wisdom Tree Prof Mahabala never saw himself as just an academic, so while he helped to set up the first mainframe computers in India’s leading engineering institutions, he also assisted in opening them up for research and industrial use. At the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) at Kanpur and Madras (now Chennai) and at the Computer Society of India (CSI), he kick- started the computer revolution and ensured it permeated every facet of societal change in India. Fresh from Canada, where he had obtained his doctorate in Electrical Engineering, Mahabala together with V Rajaraman and HK Kesavan, played a pioneering role in shaping IIT Kanpur into a crucible of Computer Science. When Mahabala finished his doctorate in electrical engineering in 1964 at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, he took a few days off to visit the IBM plant in Don Mills, Ontario. ‘I saw an IBM 1620 being tested prior to shipping. It carried a placard “CAWNPORE”. I was told that it was being sent to IIT Kanpur, and was, in fact, the first computer to be installed in an educational institution in India,’ he recounts. By one of those happy coincidences, Mahabala ended up in the same institution. He got a telegram from IIT Kanpur— ‘Come and join as an assistant professor’. He later found out this was the work of Prof HK Kesavan of the electrical engineering department, with whom he had interacted briefly on a previous short visit.

  • Padma Bhushan Pullela Gopichand Telugu Person of the Year He Actually Wanted to Wield a Cricket Bat
    Padma Bhushan Pullela Gopichand Telugu Person of the Year He actually wanted to wield a cricket bat. His brother, wisely, nudged him to hold a shuttle racket, instead. His passion for his chosen sport powered him to success after success. Each time he scaled a higher peak, he brought more glory to the country. A badminton player of international eminence, Padma Bhushan Pullela Gopichand is a coach par excellence. 45 year-old Gopichand was born to Subbaravamma and Subhash Chandra on November 16, 1973 in Nagandla of Prakasham district. He completed his undergraduate education at A.V. College in Hyderabad. All along Gopichand kept honing his skills as a badminton player and at 17, was made the captain of Indian Combined Universities Badminton team. In the early phase of his career, he was coached by S.M. Arif and later, joined the Prakash Padukone Academy run by the badminton legend. His transition to the pinnacle of fame was built on his dedication and commitment to the sport. Gopichand rewrote record books in quick time and was crowned the national champion for 5 successive years from 1996. He created history in 2001 when he won the All England Open Championship, two decades after a fellow-Indian, and his perfectionist-guru Prakash Padukone, had won the championship.The ease and elan with which Gopichand became the champion made him a fitting role model for aspiring players. However, the journey did not end there for this badminton legend. He decided to shape the careers of other aspiring sportspersons by mentoring them. It was with this aim that the Gopichand Badminton Academy was established in 2008.
