New Delhi: To encourage its young, ignited students to transform knowledge into tangible products at an early stage of their career, IIT Delhi is running two internal research schemes for them since 2016. The schemes run by the Institute’s Industrial Research and Development (IRD) wing are known as Students Startup Action Programme and Discover & Learn (1-2-3-4).
Under both the schemes, a seed grant is given to the selected students through their faculty mentors, providing the students an opportunity to use scientific and technical methodologies to solve practical problems faced by society.
The Students Startup Action Programme seeks to engage IIT Delhi’s undergraduate student groups in startup actions by providing a supportive environment in recognition, initial seed grant, and expert advice.
