Established in 1958, the second of its kind, IIT Bombay was the first to be set up with foreign assistance. The funds from UNESCO came as Roubles from the then Soviet Union. In 1961 Parliament decreed the IITs as ‘Institutes of National Importance'. Since then, IITB has grown from strength to strength to emerge as one of the top technical universities in the world.

It was fantastic to visit the IIT Bombay. The campus is filled with lush green trees and the environment is calm and serene. The walks at the campus will give views of different hostels titled differently alongwith a customised mess, canteen and a shop to buy some usual stuffs. There is enough variety to eat beyond these canteens as well with varieties being available at various other points. A great visit!

We went during Mood Indigo, the cultural fest of IIT Bombay. It's the biggest in Asia, and undoubtedly the best. Spread over 4 days, there are several international bands and artists who come and perform alongside Indian artists. Students should definitely visit this fest and be a part of what might be the best experience of their lives!
