GIST as Remote Center of IIT Bombay

Geethanjali Institute of Science and Technology has been identified as a Remote Center of IIT Bombay since July 2013 for conducting mega-workshops and to train number of teachers and students. These workshops shall be conducted in the distance mode, using A-VIEW software and Internet, as part of the National Mission on Education through ICT (MHRD, Govt. of India). IIT Bombay & IIT Kharagpur assigned the star rating for the 518 Remote Centers in all over India. Star Rating is assigned based on the timely testing, facilities and timely submission of Utilization certificates etc. We secured 3 Star rating out of 5 star.

A Remote Center acts as the intermediary between IIT Bombay and the participating teachers during the workshop. It is usually a reputed engineering college, with high academic standards, excellent infrastructure and good faculty with expertise and experience of handling workshop subjects, to guide the participants in Lab work. IIT Kharagpur is also declared as a partner institution for these initiatives.

IIT Bombay partially funds the conduct of the workshops at the Remote Centers.

A Remote Center (RC) is a place from where the participants/people can interact with the instructor (faculty at IIT) who is conducting the course or delivering a lecture from IIT Bombay. The live lectures are transmitted at Remote Centers using A-VIEW software.

Reasons for GIST being selected as a remote center of IIT Bombay

  • The Remote Center (RC) GIST is usually a reputed engineering college with good facility and infrastructure.
  • GIST acts as a host for the virtual classroom environment created by A-VIEW.
  • The participant can attend the workshop in a RC close to his/her place. The RC minimizes the logistics of travel, boarding and lodging.
  • GIST is centrally located with a number of engineering colleges in the area, so as to attract a large number of participants.
  • GIST has a well equipped classroom and labs with broadband internet connection, for a minimum of 50 participants.
  • Backup of internet at venue if main internet connectivity fails due to any issue.
  • The classroom and labs should be equipped with overhead projector with minimum 12×9 feet screen.
  • The venue on where workshop will be conducted, is equipped with professional audio system.
  • Sufficient UPS to sustain Power if main line fails due to any issue.
