What is NPTEL?
NPTEL is an initiative by the IITs (IIT Bombay, Delhi,
Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee)
and IISc along with full financial support by MHRD.
The main objective of the National Programme on
Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) is to
enhance the quality of engineering an d s c i en ce
education in the country by developing contents
for undergraduate and postgraduate curricula
using video and web based courses. These courses
cover the syllabi prescribed by universities a n d
approved by AICTE.
The basic objective of science and engineering
education in India is to devise and guide reforms
that will transform India into a strong and vibrant
knowledge economy. In this context, the focus
areas for NPTEL project have been i) higher
education, ii) professional education, iii) distance
education and iv) continuous and open learning,
roughly in that order of preference.
Manpower requirement for trained engineers,
scientists and technologists is far more than the
number of qualified graduates that Indian
e d u cat i on al institutions can provide currently.
Among these, the number of institutions having
fully qualified and trained teachers in all
disciplines being taught forms a small fraction. A
significant fraction of teacher population is young
and inexperienced
and holds only an
undergraduate degree. Therefore, it is important
for institutions like IITs, IISc, NITs and other
leading Universities in India to disseminate
teaching/learning content of high quality through
all available media. NPTEL would be among the
foremost and is an important step in this direction
and uses technology for dissemination.
India needs many more teachers for effective
implementation of higher education in
science, technology and professional
courses. Therefore, methods for training
young and inexperienced teachers to

enable them carry out their academic


responsibilities effectively are a must. NPTEL
contents can be used as core curriculum content
for training purposes.
A large number of students who are unable to attend
scholarly institutions will have access to quality content
through NPTEL. All those who are gainfully employed
in industries and all other walks of life and require
continuous training and updating their knowledge can
also benefit from well-developed and peer-reviewed
course contents by the IITs, IISc and other partner
institutions in NPTEL.
NPTEL project has currently more than770 courses
available, in which about 398 courses have been
developed in video format, with each course comprising
of approximately 40 or more one-hour lectures. The
remaining are web courses in engineering/science and
humanities and have been developed in text format with
animations and other interaction. The project will
complete this task for a total of 1619 courses by next
year.
NPTEL video repository is the largest and most
viewed/accessed educational repository in the world. It
has been visited by 11.4 crore (11 million) viewers in the
YouTube alone. They are available for use and free
downloads by anyone from the NPTEL website. The
videos cover more than 20 science and engineering
branches and also extend to management, humanities and
social sciences. The videos are being supplemented by
text, quizzes and assignments. The web courses are
complete courses with text, quizzes and animations.
How will NPTEL help the community?
Course contents are useful for teacher training and help
improve the quality of students. In addition, course materials
(both web and video) are freely accessible by everyone
independent of their geographic location. These courses are
currently used by professionals and industry also for updating
their academic background. Open and distance education
using NPTEL contents are long term prospects for IITs. The
contents will help evolve criteria for focused learning and a
common set of standards for arts, science and professional
education in India through participation by everyone

concerned with teaching and learning. Link for accessing
