Short Term Program

The basic idea of the Short Term Programs i.e. Winter School and Summer School is to improve the visibility of the Institute by showcasing its strengths, mainly, the rigor of our academic courses and/or existing research facilities at IIT Bombay. The program offers interesting courses on some of the current topics by the faculty members of our institute during the winter and summer breaks each year. Vast benefits are presented to the participant under the program including study material exchange, one on one discussion with the faculty member, highly informative lecture/quiz/assignment, and e-participation certificates.

At IIT Bombay, Winter School is usually held between December/January, and Summer School is usually held between June/July every year. These short-term programs are designed for senior undergraduate and postgraduate level students. The contact hours may vary between 15 to 60 hours for a maximum of 15 days. An interested faculty member of IIT Bombay may submit their course proposal to the Dean IR for upcoming sessions. Interested students may write to us (e-mail: ) in expressing topics to cover in the future.

A further announcement shall be posted here related to upcoming sessions and the registration process.
