Abstract:
Scaling the Heights celebrates IIT Mandi’s first decade. As it traces the story of the establishment of this technological institution, it transports the reader from Roorkee, where the nascent year was spent, to a ‘transit campus’ and to IIT Mandi’s own home in the hills. Many members of the IIT Mandi community, including administrators, staff and faculty members and alumni, who were part of the story have contributed accounts of their experiences to Scaling the Heights. The book is richly illustrated with images from IIT Mandi’s own photographic archive and from other sources.
