IIT BOMBAY
INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY BOMBAY
Dear Parent/Guardian,
It gives us immense pleasure to congratulate you and your ward for the exemplary success at
IITJEE Advanced 2013. The Institute Student Mentorship Program (ISMP) would like to
welcome you and your ward to one of the most prestigious institutes in India, IIT Bombay (IITB).
As you might know, this institute has been home to some of the most distinguished personalities
on the global map, and we look forward to developing many more such minds that will serve for
the betterment of technology, our country and above all, mankind.
We believe that, as well-informed parents, you should be familiarized with both the academic
and the extra-curricular lifestyle of students at this institute and get an idea about the various
opportunities that your child can get as well as the underlying responsibilities. The faculty at this
institute strives hard to make sure that all the academic needs of each of their students are
taken care of and also to make his/her stay here fruitful. However, there may be times when
students require help, academic or otherwise, and we, at the ISMP see to it that these
requirements are met promptly and in the best way possible. We would like you to extend your
assistance for the same by simply making sure that you know a few things about this institute, to
get a general idea of how things function here. This letter is written with the purpose of helping
you understand the same.
Institute Student Mentor Program (ISMP):
At this institute, we have respected and well accomplished senior students in their fourth/fifth
year of study mentoring all first year students and these mentors, constitute the Institute Student
Mentor Program – aimed at providing guidance and help to first year students. The mentors
help the first year students’ make a smooth transition from life at home to life at this institute and
help in clearing out hurdles in their path. It would be advisable for you to meet the mentors when
when you arrive on campus for the orientation. It would be beneficial if you could also stay in
touch with mentors during the course of the semester.
Academic Structure:
A typical academic year at IIT Bombay is divided into two semesters – Autumn Semester (JulyNovember) and Spring Semester (January-April). The curriculum at IIT Bombay is based on the
credit system. Each course is allotted credits based on the number of lectures, tutorials and lab
hours per week.
There is continuous evaluation by means of quizzes, assignments, mid-semester, end-semester
examinations and lab work throughout the semester. At the end of each semester, the student
gets an SPI (Semester Performance Index) which is an average of the grades in each of the
courses he/she had registered for in that semester weighted with the credits of those courses
respectively. CPI (Cumulative Performance Index) is a weighted average of all the SPIs (till
date) weighted on the number of total credits each semester.
A detailed explanation of the formula to calculate SPI/CPI, the grading structure and the
attendance policy can be found in the appendix at the end of this letter.
The importance of maintaining a steady attendance in classes here cannot be understated. It is
advised that students do not miss classes due to trips home or otherwise. Also, it is absolutely
compulsory for all students to attend classes during the first week of each semester, except for
genuine medical reasons. When medical problems arise, the student is advised to inform the
mentor and the professors concerned if he/she is missing classes. Professors might require
medical certificates issued or authenticated by the IITB Hospital or other supporting documents
in such cases.
Students who enter this institute every year are some of the best brains in the country. Due to
the competitive environment here, we have often experienced cases where students, who until
then had always topped their class, found it difficult to get grades that meet their expectations.
This has often led to one of two extremes: some students face excessive parental pressure,
while others simply adopt an indifferent attitude which further reduces their academic
performance. We hope that you would encourage your ward to put his/her best foot forward treat the best effort from his/her side as the objective, rather than the results.
Hostel Life:
At this institute, we believe in the overall development of our students. General lifestyle of
students includes a lot of extracurricular activities in fields of sports, cultural and technical
activities, at intra-hostel, inter-hostel and inter-college events. The environment is very
conducive to growth and our institute has some of the best facilities across India. So, we
encourage students to take up whatever interests them and we request you to support them in
their choices. There is enough time in a normal IIT student’s day to fit in both academics and
extracurricular activities without much stress. But, at the same time, it is advised that care must
be taken to ensure proper time management such that academics are not neglected because of
such activities.
Hostels form an integral part of every IIT students’ life. The hostels are well equipped with
necessary infrastructure and mess facilities. First year students stay in double-sharing hostel
rooms with their batchmates.
The transition of your ward, from your loving and caring hands to a completely new competitive
environment of IIT could occasionally cause adjustment problems in the initial period of their
stay. Many students find it difficult getting used to a roommate and hostel life for the first time.
Sometimes, cultural, social and language differences further delay the settling process. As
mentors, we help the freshmen have a smooth transition so that this settling process is as short
as possible and your wards feel comfortable in this new setting quickly.
Financial Help:
In case you are worried about how expensive it is going to be to put your son/daughter through
college, don’t be. Help is always given at IITB to those who need it, whether that be of
academic, financial or any other kind. Scholarships in the form of Merit cum Means and Free
Messing are provided to the eligible students that discount the tuition fees and the mess fees
respectively. You can find more information about these in the leaflet on scholarships that you
will receive shortly or ask your ward’s mentor.
Some important issues:
Ragging in any form is strictly banned in the campus. The student should report any such
untoward incident to his/her mentor immediately. We assure you that it will be dealt with
confidentiality and with highest priority. We believe that you will be reassured by the steps that
have been taken by the institute to prevent ragging. Interaction of the freshmen with seniors
(other than the appointed mentors) is heavily curtailed during their first month, so they get time
to adjust. Strict penalties are very much in place, and mentors are always available to resolve
any situations promptly. Rest assured, ragging has all but vanished from the IIT-Bombay
campus.
However, it is expected that the freshmen develop a healthy rapport with seniors as they
themselves are amongst the brightest in the country and excel at various activities. In fact, a
healthy senior junior interaction has been the hallmark of this institute and we would like to
maintain that.
It has also been commonly observed that students with laptops/computers in their first semester
get distracted by excessive gaming/internet and don’t experience all the institute has to offer.
We would, therefore, suggest against providing your wards with laptops for the first semester,
since computer facilities for academic needs are adequately available in the Institute. However,
in case you feel that he will be able to learn better with a laptop/computer at his disposal, we
leave it to your discretion.
During the first two months, your ward will be witnessing numerous orientation programmes for
various cultural and technical programs and festivals, with the aim of encouraging them to
contribute to these campus activities. He/she is encouraged to attend these orientations and
familiarise himself/herself with these activities and hopefully explore their other interests and
talents. However, it becomes really important to realize the need of prioritizing and planning to
succeed both academically and otherwise.
Our purpose of sharing the above mentioned problems with you is to make you aware of them.
As parents, you need not be alarmed, but mental preparation and precautionary measures
would definitely help.
In case you have doubts or you need to know more about any aspect of IITB, please look up
and feel free to post on the Freshman Forum: http://gymkhana.iitb.ac.in/~smp/forum/index.php.
You can know more about the Institute Student Mentor Programme at
http://gymkhana.iitb.ac.in/~smp/index.phphttp://gymkhana.iitb.ac.in/~smp/forum/index.php
We hope that this letter gives you a fair idea about the life of your ward in the next few years.
This institute offers a wide range of opportunities for all who wish to learn in the various spheres
of life and we hope that he/she has a productive and memorable time in the institute.
Best wishes,
Student Mentor Program
Appendix:
Calculation of SPI and CPI:
Suppose in a given semester a student has taken four courses having credits C1, C2, C3 and
C4 and grade points in those courses are G1, G2, G3 and G4 respectively. Then,
SPI = (C1 x G1 + C2 x G2 + C3 x G3 + C4 x G4) / (C1 + C2 + C3 + C4)
CPI = (SPI1 x Credits in semester1 + SPI2 x Credits in semester2 + ...) / (Total credits)
For example, if in a given semester a student has taken four courses having credits 6, 6, 6, and
8 and grade points in those courses are 10, 9, 8, 6 respectively. Then,
SPI = (6 x 10 + 6 x 9 + 6 x 8 + 6 x 6) / (6 + 6 + 6 + 8) = 7.62
If the student has an SPI of 7.62 in the 1st semester worth (say) 32 credits and 8.2 in the next
semester worth 36 credits,
CPI (at the end of 2nd semester) = (7.62 x 32 + 8.2 x 36) / (32 + 36) = 7.93
Do note that all semesters have more or less equal credit weightage, so it is important to do well
throughout, and not just in final exams, in order to maintain a good CPI.
Grading:
The system of grading here, in most courses, is relative. The highest grade (worth 10 points) is
set according to the highest score obtained in the class, and proportionately, grades are allotted
to all students. Grading, in integral values out of 10 is done based on the student’s performance
throughout the semester and goes from 10 to 4 (AA-10, AB-9, BB-8, BC-7, CC-6, CD-5, DD-4),.
Detailed rules can be found in the ‘Rules and Regulations’ booklet which you will receive
subsequently. Parents and students are requested to go through and understand it
carefully.

िेंगे, ऐसी हमारी आशा है। परन्तु इसके प्रलए समय का उप्रचत उपयोग तथा प्रविाजन अप्रत
आवश्यक है, ताकक उनकी प्रशक्षा पर कोई ििाव न पड़े। हर छात्र शैक्षप्रिक एवं पाठ्येतर
गप्रतप्रवप्रियों में आसानी से संतुलन बनाकर रख सकता है।
छात्रावास IIT जीवन का अप्रिन्न अंग है। सिी छात्रावासों में हर तरह की सुप्रविाएं उपलधि
हैं। िथम वषय के िो छात्र एक ही कमरे में रहते हैं। कई छात्रों को छात्रावास में समायोप्रजत
होने में करिनाइयााँ आती हैं। प्रवप्रिन्न क्षेत्रों से आये छात्रों के सामाप्रजक, सांस्कृ प्रतक एवं िाषा
प्रिन्नता से इस िकक्रया में थोड़ा समय लगना सामान्य है। आपके पुत्र / पुत्री का मेंटर इस
करिनाई से उिरने में उनकी हर संिव सहायता करे गा।
प्रवत्तीय सहायता

आपको ये बताना चाहेंगे कक IITB में जरूरतमंिों की सहायता हमेशा की जाती है, चाहे

आवश्यक सूचनाएाँ
ककसी िी ककस्म की रै गगग (छात्रों पर अन्य छात्रों द्वारा ककया गया शारीररक अथवा
मानप्रसक अत्याचार) संस्थान में पूियतः िप्रतबंप्रित है। ऐसी कोई घटना होने पर छात्रों को
अपने मेंटर को तुरंत सूप्रचत करना चाप्रहए। हम आश्वासन िेते हैं की इन समस्याओं का हल
पूिय गोपनीयता एवं सवोच्च िाथप्रमकता से ककया जाएगा। हमें िरोसा है की रै गगग को रोकने
हेतु IITB द्वारा उिाये गए यह िोस किम आपको अपने बच्चे की सुरक्षा का आश्वासन
किलाएंगे। िथम वषय के छात्र को ककसी िी वररष्ठ छात्र (मेंटर के अप्रतररक्त) के साथ पहले
महीने ककसी िी तरह का संवाि करने की अनुमप्रत नहीं है। हालााँकक, िथम वषय के छात्रों से
ये अपेक्षा है कक वे वररष्ठ छात्रों से अच्छे संबंि स्थाप्रपत करें गे क्योंकक वे िी मेिावी और कई
गप्रतप्रवप्रियों में सवोच्च हैं।
िथम वषय में कं प्यूटर/लैपटॉप होने से कई छात्र अत्यप्रिक गेगमग, इन्टरनेट में समय बबायि
करने लगते हैं और इसके कई िुष्पररिाम होते है। इसप्रलए हमारा ये सुझाव है की आप अपने
पुत्र / पुत्री को पहले सेमस्े टर में कं प्यूटर / लैपटॉप ना किलवाएाँ। हालांकक प्रशक्षि से सम्बंप्रित
कायों के प्रलए पयायप् कं प्यूटर सुप्रविा उपलधि है, परन्तु कफर िी यकि आपको लगता है की
कं प्यूटर से आपके पुत्र / पुत्री को प्रशक्षा में मिि प्रमलेगी तो अंप्रतम प्रनियय आप अपने पूिय
प्रववेक से लें।
यहााँ प्रशक्षा का माध्यम अंग्रेजी होने से कु छ छात्रों को करिनाइयााँ आ सकती है, प्रवशेषकर
उन्हें प्रजन्होंने पहले पढ़ाई ककसी अन्य िाषा में की हो। ऐसे छात्रों के प्रलए अंग्रेजी सीखने
तथा अंग्रेजी के उपयोग में सहायता करने हेतु कक्षाएं आयोप्रजत की जाती हैं। यकि आपको
ऐसा लगे कक आपके पुत्र/पुत्री को इस िकार की सहायता की आवश्यकता है, तो आप उसे
इन कक्षाओं में िाग लेने के प्रलए िोत्साप्रहत करें ।
पहले िो महीनों में संस्थान के प्रवप्रिन्न सांस्कृ प्रतक, खेल-कू ि एवं तकनीकी क्लब अपने
गप्रतप्रवप्रियों के बारे में छात्रों को अवगत कराते है। सिी छात्रों के प्रलए सुझाव है की वे इनमें
िाग लें तथा अपनी रुप्रच के अनुसार इनमें अपना योगिान िे सकें । यह ध्यान में रखना
चाप्रहए कक छात्र अपनी िाथप्रमकताओं को न िूलें और उनके शैक्षप्रिक प्रवकास पर कोई बुरा
ििाव न पड़े।
इन समस्याओं से आपको पहले ही अवगत कराना हमने उप्रचत समझा ताकक आप अपने
पुत्र/पुत्री के साथ प्रवचार प्रवमशय कर सकें । इनके बारे में आपको गचता करने की आवश्यकता
नहीं है, क्योंकक मेंटर ऐसी समस्याओं में छात्र से परामशय और सहयोग के प्रलए हमेशा साथ
होगा।
आशा करते हैं कक संस्थान में छात्रों के जीवन और गप्रतप्रवप्रियों का थोड़ा अंिाजा आपको हो
गया होगा। यहााँ कु छ नया करने एवं सीखने की हर संिव सुप्रविाएाँ उपलधि हैं। छात्र यकि
समय का सोच-समझ कर उपयोग करे तो इन सुप्रविाओं का वह पूरा लाि उिा सकता है।
