IIT-Bombay enhances teaching with hands-on training initiatives
IIT-Bombay will change its teaching methods starting in the 2025-26 academic year. The new approach will focus on activity-based learning, problem-solving projects, and more classroom discussions tailored to specific departments. First-year students will have the option to participate in summer internships in their hometowns, addressing local technical and social issues with support from alumni. This initiative aims to enhance hands-on training and real-world experience. The changes follow feedback from a review committee that emphasized the need for improved teaching quality and student engagement. Faculty members are preparing to implement these innovative practices in their courses.
