Masters Degree Programs in Indiasince 1997

Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, Illinois, USA (IIT-C) has been offering ProfessionalMasters Degree Programs in India since 1997. Students pursuing the Masters program in India getthe same degrees as on-campus students, with similar placement opportunities. The programs filla higher education gap, providing advanced education for working professionals / fresh graduates.Engineers from more than 50 companies in India, such as Motorola, Oracle, Honeywell, Sasken,Philips, Wipro, Infosys, Agere systems, Juniper networks, Qualcomm, Godrej, Kirloskar(KBL), Tech

Mahindra, Robert Bosch, Tataelxsi, Kawasaki, Samsung, Cognizant, Karmic, Cisco, ARM,HP etchave been enrolling regularly. So far about 400 engineers have completed their Masters & obtainedthe Masters degrees from IIT Chicago while studying in India. The programs, which are convenientand economically priced, as well as rigorous, can benefit fresh bachelors degree graduates, workingprofessionals as well as companies.

Brief History

IIT-C, founded in 1890 in Chicago, is a Ph.D.-granting university that awards undergraduate andgraduate degrees in Engineering, The sciences, Mathematics, Architecture, Business , Psychology andonly graduate degrees in Design & Law. The university is known for its research and its interactionwith industries. Since 1976, IIT-C began using multimedia classroom teaching technologies to teach

advanced courses to remote students at employer sites in the Chicago area. With approval of theGovernment of India, IIT-C established a wholly owned subsidiary, Illinois Institute of TechnologyIndia Private Limited (IITIPL) in 1997 and began offering a few Masters / Certificate programs of theChicago campus to remote students in India. Now via streamed video on the Internet IIT-C offers morethan a two dozen masters degree and certificate programs to fresh graduates and working professionalsin India.Accreditation: Illinois Institute of Technology is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission ofthe North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (http://www.ncahlc.org/) in the USA. Specificprofessional curricula are also accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission and theComputing Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology

(ABET).

Masters Degree Programs

Each of the following programs consists of 10-11courses (called Subjects in India).Students who lackpre-requisites, will be required to complete those prior to taking advance courses.

TEACHING METHODOLOGY AND EXAMINATIONS

All Courses are taught by professors on the Chicago campuses, using E learning technologies. Classesas held for On Campus students are recorded and made available to students in India through Internetwithin 24-48 hours. Students may download lecture notes or slides prior to viewing the lectures

online. Generally professors will deliver one lecture of 3 hours per course in a week. In total, therewill be 14 -16 lectures per course in each semester. In summer terms, which are only 6-10 weeks,lectures are delivered more frequently. In most courses, homework and projects are due throughoutthe semester, and students in India must meet the same deadlines as those in Chicago campus. Inaddition, most courses have at least two examsone at the midterm and Final at the end of the term.All examinations and assignments, including projects, are evaluated by the professors in Chicago. Inthe course syllabi, professors explain how grades are weighted in their courses. Registered studentsview the lectures by logging onto to Blackboard through my.iit.edu portal, even if they are traveling.They can replay the lectures as often as they wish during the semester. If they have questions, students4

can email or call professors or teaching assistants. Chats and audio or video conferences may also beorganized. Occasionally live-on-site seminars, short-courses, or lectures may be organized when a

professor from IIT (Chicago) visits India. Students who are admitted to an IIT Chicago Masters

program may complete all of their courses in India or in Chicago, or partly in India and partly inChicago

Special Features of above Masters Degree Programs offered by IIT-Chicago are: -

1. On Campus Option :- AdmittedStudents may ask for I-20 & take F-1 visa and go toChicago Campus in USA

2. Online Option: - Admitted students may complete their degree programs entirely (online)in India following the same semester schedule and syllabi as those in campus but attendinglectures asynchronously via streamed video on the Internet and submitting homework toprofessors in Chicago via email, ftp or, in the case of presentations, via PC conferencing..

Conventional Exams (paper pen) are given in India (QP from Chicago) and graded inChicago.

3. Hybrid (Online + On Campus at Chicago) option Admitted masters students maybegin studies in India and move to the Main Campus in Chicago to complete their degreeprograms

4. Eligibility criteria for admission to a specific IIT-C degree program are the same forall students regardless of the location of the students (Details given below). Admissiondecisions are made by the professors in Chicago.

6. Teaching Methodology in Campus at Chicago / India is the same. At Chicago, Lectures

conducted for class room students are live telecast to remote students in various classroomsspread over an area of 30 Miles radius from Campus. The very same lectures are madeavailable on Internet for students in India and other countries. Students in India andcampus at Chicago do the same Assignments, Projects, and Examinations etc. Only facultyconcerned at Chicago will evaluates all these.

7. Degrees awarded to students in Chicago and India are the same.
