Dear Alumnus/ Alumna,
IIT Madras has a scheme for sponsorship of Convocation & Institute Day prizes. As of now 25 Institute Day prizes available for sponsorship. Please consider sponsoring one or more prizes.
For both, the sponsorship period is limited to a maximum of 25 years, at which time (or earlier, depending on the donor’s choice) the Prize will revert to being an Institute Merit Prize. The sponsor will then be offered an option to renew.
The sponsorship period can be 10 or 25 years, and can be funded with a one-time payment as shown:
Institute Day Prize:
10 years: Rs. 1 lakhs
25 years: Rs. 2.5 lakhs
Also note that “Alumni Day” institute-level prizes may be funded at same level as “Convocation” prizes, and “Alumni Day” department-level prizes may be funded at same level as “Institute Day” prizes.
