IIT-Roorkee Heritage Foundation Excellence Awards celebrate annually the excellence exhibited by the IIT-Roorkee students. The winners are selected based on demonstrated excellence in academics, sports, extra-curricular activities, and a self-assessment personal essay. The winners for 2016 have been announced and they will be recognized in the award ceremony slated for November 19, 2016.

We have instituted four awards.  We find it particularly rewarding to be able to sponsor these awards as Prof. Ram Kumar was in the faculty of the Department of Mathematics in the then University of Roorkee in early 1960’s. Rakesh Agrawal was also a student of the University in 1970’s.
