By MYBRANDBOOK
Indian Institute of Technology Bombay professor Rangan Banerjee formally took charge as the new director of IIT Delhi. A Forbes Marshall Chair Professor at IIT Bombay, Banerjee is a B.Tech mechanical graduate from the same institute.
Upon assuming office as Director, Prof Banerjee “IIT Delhi is one of the leading higher education institutions in the country known for the quality of its research and academics. I am delighted to have the opportunity to lead the IIT Delhi team in its journey of excellence and societal impact.”
BotLab Dynamics, an IIT Delhi incubated startup best known for their drone show at the Republic Day Beating Retreat ceremony, paid tribute to the outgoing Professor V Ramgopal Rao, who served as the institute director for six years, in his last evening at the campus.
The drones arranged to form the face of Rao as well showcased messages such as “Thank you Prof V R Rao” and “We love IIT Delhi”.
Rao said, “I knew that they are performing, but didn’t realize that they were doing it on the occasion of my handing over charge tomorrow. It was very touching indeed to see myself in the sky. The startups at IIT Delhi always had my ear and approached me whenever they faced issues. We launched multiple schemes such as Faculty Innovation & Research driven Entrepreneurship (FIRE), Student startup action plan, Discover & Learn 1-2-3-4 initiatives etc. to boost the startup ecosystem at IIT Delhi. The results will be visible in due course of time.”
