India which enjoys demographic advantage is poised to achieve such a revolution, provided science and technology is employed in the most effective way. KIIT, a young University with lot of enthusiasm has carved a niche for itself for the excellent hospitality and personalized care it offers to every visitor coming to the campus.

Finally, the state of Odisha, cradled between sunlit waters of Bay of Bengal and the lush green forests on Eastern Ghats is a sample of the diversity India can boast of. It is known for its rich biodiversity including rich marine fauna with pristine beaches across 482 km of coastline, wild life sanctuaries, the largest brackish water lake in Asia and lagoons, bird sanctuaries and gorgeous waterfalls. Bhubaneswar is known for its architectural marvel of 13th century, the sun temple referred to as “poetry in stone” and several other temples fetching the name “the city of temples”. The city is known for its own unique arts and crafts including appliqué work of Pipli and filigree. Bhubaneswar has something interesting in store for every type of visitor. Once again, I extend a warm welcome to one and all. Reaching the unreached... 1 0 ISCA Council : 2011-2012 ISCA Executive Committee: 2011-2012 General President Prof. S. S.

n its journey from a small technical Institute to a world class University, Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology I(KIIT) has come a long way within the shortest span of time. Since its inception in 1993, KIIT emphasized on quality education and no wonder, it was declared as a University (u/s 3 of UGC Act of 1956) in 2004. Since then Universal acceptability of KIIT can be judged from the KISS as an unique experiment to eradicate poverty through KIIT has never looked back. The growth of KIIT as a visit of Nobel Laureates, Ambassador of USA in India, education and use of education as a tool to empower the under world class University spreading over 25 sq. km. Presidents and premiers of several countries, Presidents, privileged section of the society and provide sustainable of prime land in 17 lush green sprawling Rectors and Vice Chancellors of several International employment is being hailed by statesmen, policy makers, campuses in a built-up area of 7.5 million square Universities, academicians, researchers and scientists planners, social workers from India and abroad. As a catalyst, feet in Eastern Indian is incredible indeed. The from across the globe, invited speakers, participants of KISS has been successfully inching towards the Millennium International Association of Universities (IAU), multi-disciplinary University with 23 constituent Schools various National and International conferences and Development Goals envisaged by the UN. Participation of its Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), offering diverse programmes has proved itself to be the much workshops held in KIIT. KIIT University also takes the students in the Commonwealth and Asian Games, receiving International Association of Universities Presidents nd sought after higher educational centre of the country.

Cinema & Mass Media Studies, Language and Sculpture, KIIT UK. Other academic Conferences addressed by Nobel have come forward to be partner with KISS. Internationalization of KIIT is not confined to its Laureates Prof. Richard R. Ernst and Prof. Zinkernagel stands out as a class of its own both in quality and quantity. membership in several world bodies and bilateral speak volumes about KIIT’s academic excellence. academic partnerships alone. The acceptability of The quality is amply demonstrated by the ever increasing demand KIIT by the students, researchers of Universities Academic excellence, impressive infrastructure are not and stiff competition among few hundred thousand aspirants to be across the globe can be judged from the ever the only reasons to give KIIT a distinct identity. KIIT is enrolled in 2000 seats in various Schools, the patents held by increasing number of overseas students, researchers perhaps the only University that synergizes academics and various faculty members, the state of art labs, the research grants and visitors from around the world. human values. The humane face of KIIT is best illustrated coming from various agencies both in India and abroad, national in Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS), a protégé and international conferences, symposiums and workshops held The growth of KIIT as a world class of KIIT. It is perhaps the USP of KIIT that it has been here and the hundred percent placement records besides the fulfilling its social commitments through the accreditation by NAAC of UGC and NBA of the AICTE.

With a leader like Dr. area of 7.5 million square feet in A. Samanta, Founder of KIIT and KISS, the institute has earned Universities all over the world are now working towards Eastern Indian is incredible indeed. the reputation of meticulously planning and executing things in Internationalization of Higher education responding to the needs most organized way.

In order time. Dr. Samanta as a Council Member of the UGC in two to promote knowledge sharing and collaborative research KIIT consecutive terms with his expertise recognized through his has entered into the elite group of associations and organizations appointments as a Member in several government bodies like including the Association of Indian Universities (AIU), AICTE, CAPART, COIR BOARD, and many other organizations, assisted by a great scientist of repute, Dr. A.
