The committee suggested that IITs be brought under the ambit of the national accreditation and assessment framework proposed in the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The council is also expected to review reforms in PhD education, accountability in research, and greater commercialization of innovations developed in higher education institutes, with an emphasis on bridging the gap between academic discovery and practical impact. An outcome-oriented peer review process for IITs is also on the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to academic and research reforms, student welfare is expected to receive attention. The council may enhance merit-cum-means scholarships and pocket allowances for SC and ST students, introduce measures to address mental health and wellness, and expand inclusivity through the use of regional languages to overcome learning barriers. The meeting, last held in April 2023, is seen as pivotal in shaping the direction of IITs and aligning their goals with national priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The IIT Council will meet after two years to discuss reforms including making JEE Advanced less coaching-dependent, credit sharing under NCrF, and AI-driven curriculum changes.
