INFORMATION ABOUT THE INSTITUTE
The Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS), Pilani is an all-India Institution declared as deemed to be university established under Section 3 of the UGC act. It is privately supported, fully residential and admits both male and female students. The primary objectives of the Institute are "to provide for and otherwise promote education and research in the fields of Technology, Science, Humanities, Industry, Business, Public Administration and to collate and disseminate in such fields effective ideas, methods, techniques and information as are likely to promote the material and industrial welfare of India" and to "train young men and women able and eager to create and put into action such ideas, methods, techniques and information". The Institute was initially registered as a Society under the Rajasthan Societies Registration Act of 1958 on the 13th May, 1964. Subsequently, by notification published in the Gazette of India dated the 27th June, 1964, the Ministry of Education, Government of India, declared that the Institute being an institution for higher education shall be "deemed to be a University". The Institute started functioning with effect from 1st July, 1964 with late Shri G.D. Birla as its Founder Chairman. The Institute started as a small "Pathshala" in Pilani way back in the year 1901 by Seth Shiv Narainji Birla with one teacher for educating his grandsons, late Shri G.D. Birla and late Shri R.D. Birla. Pilani was then a small isolated desert village in Rajasthan. The Pathshala evolved slowly and steadily into a High School in 1925 and became an Intermediate College in 1929. The Birla Education Trust was founded in the same year. The Intermediate College developed into a Degree College in 1943. In 1947, this college was raised to postgraduate level. In 1950, Pharmacy courses were started in this college, and in 1952, it was bifurcated into College of Arts and the College of Science, Commerce and Pharmacy. During World War II, the Government of India established a Technical Training Centre at Pilani for the supply of technicians for Defence Services and industry. In 1946, late Shri G.D. Birla decided to convert it into an engineering college with degree programmes in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. Master's programme in Electronics was started in 1955. B.E. programmes in Civil Engineering and Chemical Engineering were started later. In 1964 with the inception of the Birla Institute of Technology and Science, the colleges, viz., Birla College of Science, Commerce and Pharmacy, Birla College of Arts and Birla College of Engineering situated at Pilani, as also all properties, movable and immovable, together with educational facilities, hostels, staff quarters, playgrounds, etc., became part of the Institute and all these properties were vested in it. During the early years of its inception, i.e., 1964 to 1970, the Institute with the support of Ford Foundation Grant had the advantage of having collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA. It adopted the semester system, modular structure of courses, continuous and internal evaluation, letter grading, etc. It also created institutionalized linkages with the industries. Over a period of time, the Institute also introduced several flexibilities in its educational programmes. Dr. K.K. Birla who took over as the Chairman of BITS in 1983 was deeply involved and closely associated with his visionary father in running both the earlier Birla Colleges and the current institute BITS, since its inception. With his spirited involvement in all the activities of the Institute, he was able to see the vision of his father Late Shri G.D. Birla unfolding. Taking over the responsibility of running the institute, Dr. K.K Birla who became the Chancellor in 2003 realized the need for greater number of promising graduates in the field of science and technology in shaping up the nation’s development. Hence he initiated an increase in the number of students at Pilani campus during 1999 which gradually carried the total strength from 2500 to 4000. Under his patronage, BITS started expanding by establishing three campuses, first in Dubai in the year 2000,second in Goa in the year 2004 and third in Hyderabad in the year 2008. Consequent upon the sad demise of Dr. K.K. Birla on 30 August 2008, Dr. Kumar Mangalam Birla was elected as the Chancellor and Smt. Shobhana Bhartia was appointed as the Pro-Chancellor of the Institute. Under the leadership of young and dynamic Chancellor, BITS is taking steps to scale greater heights.

BITS Pilani – Strategic Improvement Journey In the last 10 years, BITS has taken giant strides to cement its legacy of being an excellent teaching institution, with focus on research. Besides, the institution has substantially expanded its capacity to provide education to more meritorious students from India and abroad. This has been realized through a well thought out transformation program that not only ushered major improvements in academics and research, but also in the infrastructure space with modernization and new construction of several academic blocks, faculty and student housing and other facilities at Pilani, Goa and Hyderabad campuses. An elaborate growth plan, with student and faculty intake over the next 10 years, formed the core of this transformation. The beginning of this strategic transformation was with the launch of Vision 2020 in the year 2009, with an aim to improve BITS Pilani’s ranking amongst science & technology institutions in India and Asia. The improvement in the rankings was planned through 3-year programs, known as “Mission” programs, with a clear objective of bringing significant transformation in chosen focus areas, known as thrust areas. First such program was called Mission 2012, that saw over 100 faculty member working with BITS leadership in 6 thrust areas. The major achievements of the Mission 2012 program were - a renewed focus on research with schemes such as Seed Grant, Research Initiation Grant etc., improved administration through automation by implementing an ERP, introduction of new people policies in recruitment and performance management, bringing a distinct brand identity guidelines and the most significant of all – Project “Parivartan”. In November 2011, Chancellor Dr. Kumar Mangalam Birla formally announced the Project “Parivartan” to modernize and expand physical infrastructure in Pilani, which was subsequently extended to Goa and Hyderabad campuses as well. Through this project a number of new facilities
Convocation 2019
have been created and the existing academic blocks, hostels and faculty & staff housing have been renovated and augmented. The project will take a few more years to complete. After Mission 2012, a follow-up program called Mission 2015 was initiated with focus on 7 new thrust areas. Mission 2015 brought further transformation such as international student admission (on the basis of SAT scores), 3 inter-disciplinary centres-of-excellence for research and application, institution-wide innovation and incubation centres and policies, Teaching Learning Centres for research on new age teaching and pedagogy amongst other vital policies and programs. After two major transformation Missions, the leadership decided to consolidate and review the progress made thus far in the journey towards Vision 2020 and introduced periodic campus and institution reviews. These reviews are now completely institutionalized and are an excellent platform for departments and divisions across BITS to showcase their achievements, and an opportunity to align their objectives and activities with that of the institution. Equipped with several successes and deep learning of implementation of 2 strategic programs, followed by periodic institutional reviews, BITS began deliberations for an extended vision, that would prepare the institution well beyond 2020. In 2017, BITS engaged a leading global strategy consultant for formulating an overall roadmap that would propel it to further heights and help attain leadership position in the coming years. This strategic exercise, christened as Project “Lakshya” is now in implementation phase, with focus on 5 thrust areas: Research, Faculty, Programs & Pedagogy, WILP & Industry Connect, and Alumni Relations. The thrust areas, each led by senior leader, have set themselves goals that would strengthen and enhance BITS’ position amongst global science and technology institutions. BITS Pilani has always been a leader in providing excellent education – the eminent alumni and stellar faculty who have been part of this institution for the last 55 years are a testimony to this fact. In 2018, Ministry of Human Resources and Development, Government of India, conferred “Institute of Eminence” status on BITS Pilani, concurring and endorsing the faith our student, faculty and alumni have reposed since its inception. BITS Pilani now admits 3344 first degree students, 769 higher degree students and 324 PhD scholars. With a strength of 775 faculty members and over 1100 staff across its 4 campuses, BITS is committed to achieve faculty-to-student ratio that meet global standards. BITS is also proud to have a network of over 55000 alumni spread across the world. “BITSians” are leaders in whichever field they have made their careers: Industry, Entrepreneurship, Academia, Research, Social Sector, Armed Forces, Entertainment, and the Government to name a few. In the constant quest to scale newer heights and set new standards, BITS expects an active role and participation from all its key stakeholders – student, faculty, staff, and alumni.

CHANCELLOR’S ADDRESS
Dr. Kumar Mangalam Birla
Our Chief Guest Shri Sonam Wangchuk, Vice-Chancellor of BITS Pilani - Prof. Souvik Bhattacharyya, Director Pilani Campus - Prof. A.K. Sarkar, Distinguished faculty members, graduating students, Ladies and Gentlemen. While reflecting on the messages I wanted to share with you in my address this year, I found myself seeking inspiration from one of the guiding lights who helped grow this institution into what it is today. Shri B.K. Birla. A towering intellectual and a dynamic educationist who had a profound influence on education in India. He had a life-long commitment to the cause of education and was deeply invested in providing fundamental learning and skill development in the seminal years of youth. Spread across the length and breadth of the country and beyond its shores as well, many educational initiatives and several institutions founded by him have transformed the lives of thousands of students. Well over 50,000 students annually graduate from institutes that have been built by him and millions of alumni have added to India’s growing intellectual heft globally. He was of the firm view that higher education must serve as an engine of opportunity. BITS Pilani is today one such engine of opportunity. Shri B.K. Birla was a member of the Board of Governors of the Institute, from the time the Board was first constituted on 3rd November, 1964 till his demise on 3rd July. This institute has thrived over seven decades, in large part due to the unwavering commitment of our founding fathers to imparting world-class education. In the legends of BITS’ history, Shri BK Birla’s contribution in crafting an enduring legacy will always stand out. His zeal to create a revolution in the world of education and his optimism on India’s future is best captured in his own words and I quote - “India is the country of today and tomorrow…… the talent held in the palms of the youth of this great nation will certainly make it a superpower.” On behalf of the management, faculty and all alumni and students, I would like to pay homage to a great visionary and an iconic educationist. I believe the best way to celebrate his indomitable spirit and rich legacy is to live up to the values that he stood for- Integrity, dedication and service to humanity.
Convocation 2019
The glorious history of this institution instills both expectations and responsibilities on you. And I am sure you will live up to them. As you get started on a new phase in your life, I have two key messages for you. Firstly, Commit yourself to a lifetime of learning. Armed with a marquee degree from a premier institute and an offer letter from a company of your choice, it is easy to think you have arrived in life. The reality is – you haven’t. In this fast-changing world, no degree is sufficient to provide you with the knowledge and wisdom for a lifetime. The learning curve has turned steeper now, as technology is forcing us to question how we live our lives and how we do our work. From the way you hail a cab to how you buy groceries to how you consume news. Everything has been upended. What you cannot dispute is that technology delivers a higher order of value. A much higher order of value. To be at the cutting edge of this change, you need to keep learning. Today. Tomorrow. And forever. Because with technology there can be no end game. American Author, Brian Herbert famously said: “The capacity to learn is a gift; The ability to learn is a skill; The willingness to learn is a choice.” Talking about choices, you will have to make a lot of choices starting today. Look to make unconventional ones. The predictable path has predictable returns. In fact, many would argue that the linear path of career progression that existed for several decades is now broken. So make sure you pick a path that unleashes your full creative potential. And that brings me to my second point - Look to be a Force of Change. The key question to ask today is how best will you use the talent that you have and the education that you have acquired? What is perhaps more important than the degree that you have just obtained is - what you do with it. I would love to see you use it to further technological advancements and contribute to economic progress. So, set your goals high. Very high. Don’t just face the future, create it and have a stake in it. The greatest problems facing humanity today need out of the box thinking, and you have the pedigree to solve them. Push yourself and push your limits of thought. Don’t let any barrier set restrictions on the scope of the possible. And together, you can be a force of change. I am energized at the prospect of seeing all of you as trailblazers. I believe in you. I believe in the power of your ideas and the consequences of your actions. This institute and I will always be invested in your success. Finally, today is a day of celebration! A day to pause and reflect. You have a lot to be proud of and a lot to be grateful for. Remember to give back - to all those who made this day possible and to all those who perhaps cannot even dream of a day like today.
Thank you and God speed.

Your degree is an achievement certainly; but as Natalie Portman said, “Achievement is wonderful when you know why you’re doing it, and when you don’t know, it can be a terrible trap”. Therefore, take your degree as the stepping-stone for being righteous, conscientious and morally dutiful. It is very difficult in today’s world to be aware of everything around you especially when you are at your age and there is a constant monologue in your head. Your university degree, to a certain extent, I believe, would enable you how to think, and thereby, having some amount of control over your thoughts. Our thoughts create and affect our realities and it is important for each of us to understand that there might be multiple perspectives to the same event. Thus, make sure that you continue to learn beyond your degree. You will encounter a fast changing workspace; malleability comes in very handy along with depth and broad skill sets; be adaptable, resilient, agile and creative. Pursue your dreams. Many of us have chosen our path based out of fear disguised as pragmatic and practical. As BITSians, you are brilliant! Do, what your heart and your head wants you to do - take that leap of faith. There would be failures; but there are fringe benefits of failure. It takes away the inessential part of life and enables one to concentrate on the only work that matters. We should not be perturbed by every stumble. As poet Rumi says, “if you are bothered by every rub, how are you going to shine your mirror”? As you graduate, you have a huge moral and intellectual capital. Go out fearlessly and change the world. I can assure you that your alma mater would eagerly follow your path of success. Be grateful and feel part of the community wherever you are. Be always thankful to your parents and family members for the tremendous support they have extended. Remember the unseen sacrifices of your parents during your studies here; all the vacations never taken, all the family outings that remained unvisited, all those eating-outs that didn’t happen that ultimately add up to finance your education. Remember your professors, guides, mentors and innumerable friends, wing-mates, lab partners that have ignited your minds, pushed you towards excellence and enabled you to be what

you are today. Most importantly, remember to write eulogies for those unsung heroes who have nourished you during your student life in this institute: the cleaners, the mess staff, the canteen folks, the Bhawan staff - they all worked tirelessly to make your stay bit more comfortable, created the space equivalent to your home and who worked selflessly and invisibly towards making you reach your goal. As you move forward, be a part of the humanity. You are certainly privileged to be a BITSian - use your strength and privilege judiciously. Each of us is a part of a larger self: a vast community of existing beings. Ask important questions such as how would you serve the world? What do people need that your talent can provide? Figure it out and work on it. Work hard, be kind and amazing things will happen. While you all strive to do well, you must also do some good. This purpose will thrill you throughout your life, an adventure worth pursuing. Your Alma mater has given a passport now to succeed in your professional journey. Give back generously to make BITS Pilani stronger and more eminent. As a graduate and ambassador of BITS Pilani, you are the torchbearer of an extremely rich heritage. Today your start belonging to an extremely eminent community. Welcome to the fraternity. Congratulations! Please keep in touch and I wish you all the very best for now and always! Mr Wangchuk - thank you for being with us at this very joyous moment for the entire BITS Pilani family. My faculty colleagues, staff and students are as grateful as I am. I would also like to thank our Chancellor, Dr Kumar Mangalam Birla, and members of the Board of Governors for their unflinching support to BITS Pilani. Finally, I express my gratitude for the faculty and staff members for their commitment to excel in every aspect of teaching and research, in classrooms, laboratories and beyond. I also thank our eminent alumni for the excellent support to their alma mater. Together, they all are ensuring that BITS Pilani remains a top destination for the students, faculty members, research funds, innovators and recruiters. Thank you very much for your patient attention.

INTRODUCTION TO THE CHIEF GUEST
Shri Sonam Wangchuk
Sonam Wangchuk was born in the trans-Himalayan region of Ladakh in J&K, India. Though a Mechanical Engineer by education, he has been mostly working in the field of education reform for more than 27 years. In 1988, just after he finished his engineering studies, he founded SECMOL (Students’ Educational and Cultural Movement of Ladakh), which aims to bring reforms in the government school system in Ladakh. In 1994, he was instrumental in the launch of Operation New Hope, a triangular collaboration of the government, village communities and the civil society to bring reforms in the government schools system. The programme involved formation of Village Education Committees to take ownership of state schools, training of teachers in child friendly ways and re-writing and publishing localised text books for Ladakh. As a result, the pass percentage at 10th grade (matriculation) rose from the dismal 5% to 55% in seven years and 75% these days. For students who still failed in their state examinations, he founded the SECMOL Alternative School Campus near Leh, a special school where the admission criteria is failure in exams and not grades. However, with the supportive and creative environment at the school, the so called failures have excelled in their chosen fields and risen to international acclaim as entrepreneurs, film makers, politicians, teachers and so on. As an engineer, Sonam Wangchuk has been teaching innovation at the SECMOL Alternative School, where together with the students he designed and built solar heated buildings that are low cost, made of earth/mud but maintain +15oC even with an ambient temperature of –15oC during Ladakhi winters. In order to solve the water crisis mountain regions face due to climate change and fast melting glaciers, he invented the Ice Stupa artificial glacier that stores the waste stream waters in winter in the form of giant ice cones or stupas and releases the water in late spring as they melt, just when farmers need water. Sonam Wangchuk has won several awards and accolades such as: Ramon Magsaysay Award 2018, GQ Social Entrepreneur of the Year 2017, Rolex Award for Enterprise 2016 (Hollywood, USA), Terra Award 2016 for World’s best Earth Buildings (Lyon France), The UNESCO Chair for Earth Architecture for India in 2014, ‘Real Heroes’ Award by CNN IBN Channel 2008, ‘Green Teacher’ Award by Sanctuary Asia Magazine 2005, Ashoka Fellowship by Ashoka: Innovators for the Public 2002, ‘Man of the Year’ by The Week magazine 2001 and the Governors Medal by the J&K State Government in 1996.
