The Chair Professorship is a distinguished academic position of the Institute and is conceived as an academic honor to recognize outstanding Teaching/Research work and achievements of the permanent Faculty of the Institute. It can also be used to attract outstanding academicians to join the Institute as Visiting Faculty. Each Chair is supported by an endowment created from a donation to the Institute.
Establishment of new Chair Professorships is essential for IIT Bombay to attract and retain high quality research faculty, which are one of the key elements required to fulfill the goal of the Institute to be a leading International Research University. |

It is envisaged that Chairs will also lead to the establishment of new areas of specialization through the recruitment of accomplished researchers in specific fields of study. The endowment for a Chair is currently Rs. 60 lakh. Interest from the endowment will be used to meet expenses of the Chair, which include an honorarium of up to Rs 20,000 per month and contingency expenses. The salary of the Chair Professor and all other benefits (housing, medical etc.) will be from Institute funds. Donors will have the prerogative of naming the Chairs. The broad area of specialization for instituting the Chair may also be specified by the donor.
