List of IIIT in India
(Chronological Order)
IIIT is the generic name for several Institutes of Information Technology
in India, each a mini university in itself. Many of these institutions have been
subsequently renamed to better identify their affiliations and goals. The IIITs
were conceived to be forerunners in the information technology education sector,
at a time when India was going through a phase of unprecedented boom in the
software industry (Years 1998 - 2000). The course curriculum at these institutes
is at par with similar offerings at computer science departments of Indian
Institute of Technologies IIT. Due to the competitive nature of the admission at
these institutions, only a selected few make it to these universities.

http://www.iiitc.ac.in/ - Currently Known as SIT - Kolkata, IT Dept, http://www.wbut.net/ - WBUT-Kolkata The School of Information Technology Kolkata (also SIT and formerly IIIT-C) is the Information Technology Department of the WBUT. The institution started as Indian Institute of Information Technology - Calcutta in 2000 with seed support from the Government of West Bengal in association with the IT Industry.
The vision of SIT was conceived as an apex institute for IT education, training and research. Its broad vision is to serve as a catalyst and an agent of change to steer the State of West Bengal towards integration with the global network society in the new millennium. A major goal of School of Information Technology is to impart a uniquely broad and interdisciplinary IT education of the highest academic quality. This is achieved through an integrated curriculum that consists of a highly diverse set of IT courses, interdisciplinary IT research projects, day-to-day interaction with industry, preparation in entrepreneurship and personality development courses.
http://www.iiit-bh.in/ - An Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) Bhubaneswar was established in the city of Bhubaneswar in Orissa in 2007. It is partly funded by the government of Orissa, and partly self-financed. The institute has a 100 acre campus close to the new Infocity-II area in the city, where several IT companies are building new offices. It started operating in September 2007, with a small initial intake of 60 students.
http://www.iiitmk.ac.in/home.jsp - IIITM-K is a premier institution of excellence in Science, Technology and Management related to Information that develops professionals and leaders of high calibre imbued with values of entrepreneurship, ethics and social responsibility. IIITM-K will actively promote higher education and industry across Kerala and beyond through its IT facilitated education programs and services.
The State of Kerala has excelled in the sphere of literacy and has been a guiding example and inspiration for the other states in India. The state enjoys excellent primary and secondary schooling systems that guarantee affordable education to its people. The state also enjoys many good science and arts colleges and is well known for its medical and nursing institutions. However, in the sphere of engineering and technology education, the state has somewhat lagged behind its neighbours, necessitating many local students to seek admissions in institutions outside the state.
With this background in view and the need for the state to take positive steps towards establishing leadership in the fast growing Information Technology field, a high-power committee consisting of leading figures of Industry, Academia and Government was constituted by the Government of Kerala, to initiate steps towards establishing a premier institute of Information Technology and Management. Based on the deliberations of the committee, the Government of Kerala decided to set up the Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management-Kerala (IIITM-K).
http://www.iiitdm.in/ - PDPM-Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing, an IIT Level Institute, was established in year 2005 by Govt Of India for imparting skills to engineering students who can use IT in the field of Design and Manufacturing. Its task of incubation was given to Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur. This institute is also having collaboration with Japan.
The institute offers degrees, at UG, PG and Doctoral levels, in following streams: At UG and PG level the degrees are offered in Computer Science and Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering and Mechanical Engineering.
