About the Institute
IIIT Delhi was created by an Act of Delhi Government in 2008. Since then it has gained a high degree of respect within the academic community, and is widely regarded as one of the top Institutions in the country for research and education in IT areas – in particular Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) and Electronics and Communications Engineering (ECE). Computational Biology (CB) is the new program that we are starting this year. Its faculty is among the finest in the country (all regular faculty members have PhD, with about two-thirds of them having PhD from the US or Europe), and it attracts the best students to its programs.
