Over the last two decades, NIT Rourkela has swiftly transitioned from an undergraduate engineering college to a research focused graduate-level institution, with 20 departments, 420 faculty and 7800+ students. While the departments, programs and students have expanded, the has been significant reduction of funding from Ministry of Education (MoE), Govt of India, causing severe strain on teaching and research infrastructure at NITR.

NIT Rourkela (NITR) global alumni have come together to establish NIT Rourkela Development Fund (NITR-DF), with a target to raise INR 60 crores by 2027, to strengthen NITR’s growth in Research, Infrastructure, Student Success and Sustainable NITR Campus Development initiatives. Here are the near term goals for NITR-DF to support NITR development needs.

Individual alumni and alumni batches are requested to donate generously for NITR-DF and create a legacy for themselves.

The NITR-DF is governed by an independent advisory board, which is responsible to shape the strategic vision and execution roadmap, fund utilization & investments and periodic reporting. The current NITR-DF Advisory board comprises of the following directors:

  • Chairman: Prof. K Umamaheshwar Rao, Director, NIT Rourkela
  • NITR Leaders: Prof Himanshu Sahu (Dean AIIR), Prof Pankaj Sa (Assoc Dean AIIR), Prof Swadesh K Pratihar (Dean SRICCE)
  • NITRAA Representatives: Mr Fakir Charan Mohanty (NITR-1971, President NITRAA), Ms Deepa Kapil (NITR-1990), Mr Sidhartha Mohanty (NITR-1999)
  • NITROAA Representatives: Mr Giri Iyer (NITR-1987, President NITROAA), Dr Kannan Vembu (NITR-1973), Mr Manas Panda (NITR-1992)
