Annual Report is a comprehensive document outlining the activities of an establishment. Every IIT releases an annual report outlining budgetary allocation, achievements and activities of the institute. Sounds boring right? Watch Out! brings to you a crisp and easy-to-read analysis of the available annual reports of IIT Roorkee and other IITs. The annual report for the years after 2019-20 have not been released and hence have not been included.

Based on the total amount of grants received in FY 19-20 it can be concluded that the top ranked IITs receive a **similar** amount of funding with **IIT Delhi** receiving the highest funding. IIT Kharagpur, being an outlier because of its size and area, wasn’t included in this analysis.

* **More than 50%** of the Central Government’s funds for Higher Education, in the last three years, go to students of IITs, IIMs and IIITs, which encompass just **3%** (approximately) of the country’s students. These institutes are significantly **more well funded** than other institutes of the country.
|
||||
* The reason for the **IITs** getting a lion’s share of the total grants was because of the hierarchical system that exists in the Indian education system where a majority of the state-funded universities have to run on self funding while universities like the IITs, which make it to the world rankings every year, get both fundings and attention from the central government.

The **majority** of the expenses go to Establishment Expenses, followed by scholarships at **11.5%** and Laboratories, Academic Library and Educational expenses, Hostel and Departments being roughly at around **8%** each, while **11.5%** of the grants are given out in the form of scholarships. These establishment expenses consist of various types of Employee Allowances, Pensions, and Security. A meagre **0.3%** is spent on student amenities, which has a major scope for improvement. This segregation is more or less similar for all the top ranked IITs.

* Comparing the student-to-professor ratio in different departments of IIT-Roorkee, we find that the highest ratio is in **Computer Science and Engineering** (36.15), while the lowest is in **Chemistry department** (5.64).
|
||||
* The ratio for the Civil department in IIT Roorkee is 23 which is 36% less than the CSE department. Surprisingly, the students' size for CSE is 470, whereas, for Civil, it's over 1000, much higher than CSE. The reason that makes the ratio so high for CSE is the small number of faculty available (only **13** faculties are there). For civil, the faculty strength is **47**, which makes a huge difference.

* It can be seen that the mechanical department in IIT Madras has a large student-to-prof ratio, it is due to the fact that the students' size for a year in the mechanical department is over 1500 (including all batches of UG, PG). Although the size of students in the Electrical department is also around 1400, the high number of faculties in the department lowered the ratio.
|
||||
* Some departments like chemistry, HSS, and physics have a meagre ratio in all institutes. The simple reason is that **they don't have many UG students.** The department offers more Mtech and PhD courses.

This number has seen a slight decline for the first time in 5 years, with the current number of international students being **202**. This trend is most likely because of the COVID-19 Pandemic and the resulting travel bans which have discouraged students from pursuing international degrees across the globe.
