Greetings and a warm welcome to Jul- December 2015 issue of our newsletter “Jigaysa”, which serve as an additional

catalogue of activities started with welcoming our new 2015 batch students with much enthusiasm and exuberance and
it ends with biding adieu to year 2015. We feel proud to introduce our new publication of Environment and Community

Dear Readers,
FROM THE CHAIRMAN'S DESK
FROM THE DIRECTOR’S DESK
Knowledge – A fluid mix of experience, value, contextual information and expert insight provides the framework for evaluating and
incorporating new experiences and information. It originates and is applied in the minds of knowers. In organizations, it often
becomes embedded not only in documents or repositories, but also in organizational routines, processes, practices and norms true
to this sense, this issue of JIGYASA brings to you an account of the events and activities that took place at the institution, bringing
to me a feeling of fruition of the events and programs envisioned in the earlier semester. Indeed, there is so much to share and
feel proud of. The panoramic glimpses of the vibrant and fecund events are entwined into its pages which speak themselves for the
thrusts, learning dimensions and developments that took place in the semester gone by. The very objective of education at IITM is
to stimulate the thinking process so that the students and other stakeholders form independent views to take emancipated and
virtuous decisions discriminating between right and wrong. We take our teaching profession as a social responsibility, contributing
our entire mite to build a new vibrant India. I am very expectant that the Institute – the faculty, staff and students, as a whole,
shall constantly strive for more and more excellence in every field they explore in the sundry realms of life.
It is heartening that Jigyasa embodying consciousness and awareness is coming up with yet another issue. As Jigyasa kindles and
rekindles a feeling of exploration and delving deep into everything around. Symbolising the intrinsic spirit, the institution aims to be a
centre of excellence promoting value based quality education in emerging areas of professional studies and attempting, in all
earnestness, to touch dizzy heights. It is good news for the IITM fraternity that the institution has progressed in terms of its national
accreditation, infrastructure upgradation, software program enhancements, students and faculty exchange programs, number of
courses taught, guest lectures, interactions with industry and developmental programmes, the mainstay for any incremental process.
Preceding semester enlists various management and Information Technology workshops and seminars. We feel honored to be
associated with Southwest University for Nationalities, China, for students and faculty exchange programs. It is a feeling of immense
pleasure and pride for me to release this issue of JIGYASA. This newsletter with added dimensions will brighten up our readers about
various co-curricular and extracurricular events, creative and imaginative expressions of our staff and students. While we feel proud
of our achievements; we still have a long way to go. It will be our utmost endeavor to maintain and sustain the trajectory of growth
of our institute.
