03WELCOME MESSAGE FROM ISCPDear New Entrants,We take this opportunity to welcome you to one of the most prestigious institutesof the country. We congratulate you on having achieved this feat. With our personalexperiences we can vouch that the your stay here at the campus would be exciting.From potential leopard sightings to potential bumping into movie stars all awaitsyou. Wonderful all night banters, amazing wing cultures and mad birthdaycelebrations are a few things that you will carry from here when you leave,obviously along with the degree. You will also become a part of a culture wherepeople want to perfect their craft and thus work day in and day out at it. Hencethere will be great opportunities to learn both inside as well as outside theclassrooms. Thus it is a whole new cosmos to enter and with excitements it mighthave a few challenges too. We at ISCP (Institute Student Companion Programme)work towards providing you with the hacks to take care of these challenges andhave a happy stay with the IIT Bombay family.The primary objective of the Companion Programme under which the ISCP teamworks is to build a relationship of trust and comfort between the final year studentsand the incoming students of the PG programmes. Once this is established life atcampus becomes so much easier than what it would have been without it. Theknowledge and the experience that the senior batch has gained with their stay atthe campus makes the surroundings so much you that the transition becomessmooth. From the lingo on campus to the terminology in the classroom, from thegrading to the syllabus, from the profile to placements, from tagda franky to bhindirice all becomes ingrained so much as if it were you always.On campus you might always be short on time as there is so much to do andwhen there is so much to do time flies at sonic speeds. Managing the academicsalong with extra curricular activities and your social life may seem a daunting taskat times. The ISCP programme thus provides you a Student Companion with whomyou can share your academic and non- academic problems. These are selfmotivated volunteers who want to genuinely help you in tough situation as a givingback act of what they received from the programme.You can look up to the team for any initial information in things that you areventuring out at be it academics or extra-curriculars, any academic or nonacademic issues that you are facing, any sort of support, any requirement that youwanna raise up as a part of the student community and last but certainly not theleast just for normal interaction because that is all the programme holds at its core.Come be a part of this immense pool of wisdom and make it more happening anddiverse.Email-iscp@iitb.ac.inOverall CoordinatorsInstitute Student Companion Programme (2019-20)Avinash IndoliaAvinashindolia007@gmail.com 91-9058076777Tumul Raitumulrai91@gmail.com 91-7275362979Uroosa WarsiUroosawarsi134@gmail.com 91-7835877634
04WELCOME MESSAGE FROM PGACHello Friends,Congratulations on being selected to be a part of IIT Bombay and a cordialwelcome to this new world.You must have realized by now that you are undergoing a phase of substantivetransformation, and this might be daunting for some of you. The academiccurriculum of this institution might seem different and perhaps new incomparison to what you were exposed to during your undergraduate education.To appease all the apprehensions that you have, the Post Graduate AcademicCouncil (PGAC) along with the team of ISCP will try to address all the queries thatyou will be having during your entire Master‟s Programme.IIT Bombay is known to offer the students a very dynamic environment and areasonable amount of freedom so that the individual can pursue their heart‟sdesire. Be it academics, sports, cultural, or any other activity, you will be findingmyriad opportunities to build up your personality and add value toyour life. I am hoping that you will be able to explore the unending map ofpossibilities, push your boundaries, break all the walls and bring out the bestversion of yourself by the time you finish your Degree Programme.I wish you good luck and hope to see you around. We are looking forward tointeracting with you.
05WELCOME NOTE FROM ALUMNIDear student,Heartiest congratulations on being admitted to the Department of AerospaceEngineering at IIT Bombay. As an alumnus of the Department, it is a pleasure towelcome you to the family.Your experience at IITB over the next two years will be influenced significantly by howwell you realise and manage what you expect of yourself as well as IITB. Since settingexpectations is probably one of the firstthings you do while embarking on a new venture, let me offer a few words of advicebased on what I picked up at IITB, first as a student and later as a professional.1. You are an adult by the time you join IITB and you are expected to behave like one(this may sound obvious, but you‟ll be surprised .). Among other things, it means thatyou need to look after yourself. IITB has an excellent support system to help you grow ina well-rounded manner and to help you deal with any problem that you may encounterin the process. However, as Prof. Avijit Chatterjee told us on day one, “we are here tohelp, but you need to come and ask.”2. The hallmarks of an IIT graduate are her/his technical rigour and killer instinct. We donot turn our back to problems, especially the engineering sorts; we proudly assumeresponsibility for our actions, even when things go south; and, we are fair in ourdealings and more so with our competitors (for the years in IITB , it‟s your classmatescompeting with you for an AA). These traits are not always innate, but IITB will help youinstill and cultivate them in yourself.3. A good engineer can tackle problems from virtually any branch of engineering.Problem-solving has several univeral characteristics, and IITB‟s academic culture willhelp you imbibe them. This universality will give you the confidence to tackle new andunseen problems, regardless of where they come from, and to critically assess anysolutions that may come your way.4. Pay attention to your courses, self-study and course/research projects. It is a widespread, and mistaken, belief that grades do not matter when you apply for jobs orhigher education. On the contrary, you will besought after as much for technical rigouras for discipline and sincerity, all of which are most objectively reflected in your grades.Everything else (MoodI, PAF, Techfest, etc) is typically secondary to your academicperformance.5. IITB has excellent teachers, but their instruction is only as good as your ability tolearn and your willingness to put in the necessary effort. In other words, you areresponsible for ensuring that you understand and learn.6. You would do well to avoid the temptation of relegating mundane-looking derivationsand calculations to software. You are likely to learn better and faster if you do them byhand. It is my experience that the best (and the best-paid) engineers and scientistsprefer pen, paper and black/white board to software.Finally, as with most other things in life, make the most of your stay at IITB. I earnestlyhope that you enjoy it and feel proud of what you achieve there. I wish you the verybest of luck - you will need it.Dr. Aditya A. ParanjapeB.Tech and M.Tech (Batch: 2002-07)Department of Aerospace EngineeringIIT Bombay
