The Indian Institutes of Technology (popularly known as IITs) are institutions of national importance established through an Act of Parliament for fostering excellence in education.
Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) conduct a Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) every year for the admission to its B-Tech and other courses offered at the IIT
The exam is conducted by the various IITs by a policy of rotation. It is one of the toughest engineering entrance exams in the world with a success rate of around 1 in 45.
Around 4.72 lakh candidates appeared in JEE 2010 on April 11, 2010.
There are fifteen IITs at present, located in
Bhubaneswar,
Bombay (Mumbai),
Delhi,
Gandhinagar,
Guwahati,
Hyderabad,
Indore,
Kanpur,
Kharagpur,
Madras (Chennai),
Mandi,
Patna,
Punjab,
Rajasthan
Roorkee.
The primary objectives behind such institutions are to:
• Build a solid foundation of scientific and technical knowledge and thus to prepare competent and motivated engineers and scientists.
• Create environment for freedom of thought, cultivate vision, encourage growth, develop personality and self- discipline for pursuit of excellence.
• Kindle entrepreneurial streak.
Each institute has well-equipped modern laboratories, state-of-the-art computer network and well stocked technical library.
Teaching methods rely on direct personal contact between the teachers and the students and the use of traditional and modern instructional techniques.
Students live in a pleasant and intellectually stimulating environment with people having similar goals and aspirations, which is an exciting and unique experience.
Credit-based academic programmes offer flexibility to students to progress at their own pace. A minimum level of performance is necessary for satisfactory progress.
The medium of instruction is English. These institutions offer courses leading to Bachelor's degree in a number of engineering, technological and scientific disciplines.
M.Sc. Integrated courses in pure and applied sciences and M.Tech. Integrated courses in a few disciplines are also offered by some of these Institutions. In addition, some IITs offer Dual-Degree M.Tech. Programmes.
The admissions to the Undergraduate Programmes at these institutions for all Indian and Foreign nationals are made through the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE).
In Short about IIT JEE examination –
There will be two question papers, each of three hours duration.
Both the question papers will consist of three separate sections on Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics.
Questions in these papers will be of objective type.
The answers for each of the questions are to be recorded on a separate specially designed machine-gradable sheet of paper (ORS-Optical Response Sheet).
While answering each of the questions the candidate is expected to darken the bubble against correct answer(s) using hard black (HB) pencils only.
In some sections, incorrect answers may be awarded negative marks.
