HoD's Note

The humanities and social sciences constitute a whole universe of intellectual domains, spanning the entire range of knowledge pertinent to human relationships, our history and prospects for the future. Departments of Humanities and Social Sciences were established in most IITs at the very beginning of their creation as centres of excellence in engineering and the physical sciences, with the eminently sensible view that technical education needs to be complemented by a vital appreciation of the interpersonal context of all learning. Indeed, B.Tech students have for long found the experience of taking courses in these departments eye-opening, valuing throughout their lives even their limited exposure to Socratic forms of dialogue and reasoning.
