The panel of directors has also suggested that the first-year students of the Masters and PhD programmes should be inducted formally on campus in December-January.
For first-year Masters students, the panel has proposed the IITs complete their programme in three semesters instead of four. “Whenever it is safe for students to return, the IITs should bring back the PhD students first,” said a committee member.
