IIT Roorkee History: IIT Roorkee is India’s oldest engineering college, which was converted into the league of the IITs in the year 2001. It was set up as the College of Civil Engineering in British India back in 1847 by James Thompson the Lieutenant-Governor of the North-Western Province. Interestingly, the primary reason for the establishment was to train officers and surveyors who were engaged in constructing the Ganges Canal. IIT Roorkee was renamed in 1854 after the demise of Thomason’s death and the completion of the canal the college was given the name of  Thomason College of Civil Engineering by Proby Cautley, who was the designer and projector of the canal. It further changed its name to the University of Roorkee in 1949, and it was finally given the name IIT Roorkee in the year 2001.

IIT Roorkee Courses

The IIT Roorkee Courses have undergone a lot of changes. The Electrical Engineering department was added to the college only in the year 1897 and the master’s courses in architecture or the (M. Arch.) were instituted only in 1969–70. Some years later in the year 1978, the IIT Roorkee which was then called the University of Roorkee was merged with the Institute of Paper Technology. 

IIT Roorkee Courses are divided into three types-

1.     Undergraduate Courses

2.     Postgraduate Courses

3.     Integrated Courses

The courses offered by IIT Roorkee are provided through 21 academic departments. 

IIT Roorkee Institute accepts students into BTech, BArch and integrated MSc integrated MTech courses based on their JEE scores. Earlier when IIT Roorkee was not part of IIT the students had to go through the Roorkee Entrance Exam (REE) to get admission into the institute. The selection rate for the exam was close to 0.25%, hence it was considered the second hardest exam after IIT-JEE. GATE scores are used for Admission to PG programs in engineering and architecture in addition to a written test and interview. For PG programs in fundamental sciences, IIT JAM score is considered. For admission into the MBA, the CAT scores are considered for admission along with interviews.

Along with the engineering courses, the Indian Institute of Technology also offers a two-year residential MBA program for which the admissions, starting in 2011, will be done based on the Common Admission Test, thus replacing the Joint Management Entrance Test (JMET) previously conducted by the IITs. The institute also offered an interdisciplinary program in computer applications leading to a degree in Master of Computer Applications (MCA). The standalone MCA course has been removed from the courses.
