  The Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) is an elite engineering and technology school located in Chennai (formerly Madras) in southern India. It is officially recognized as an Institute of National Importance by the Government of India and is regarded as one of the finest engineering institutions in India. Founded in 1959 with technical and financial assistance from the Government of the erstwhile West Germany, IIT Madras was third among currently thirteen Indian Institutes of Technology (including 6 new IITs started in 2008) established by the Government of India through an Act of Parliament, to provide world-class education and research facilities in engineering and technology. General information: IIT Madras is a residential institute that occupies a 2.5 km² (620 acres) campus that was formerly part of the adjoining Guindy National Park. The institute has nearly 360 faculty, 4,000 students and 1,250 administrative and supporting staff. Growing ever since it obtained its charter from the Indian Parliament in 1961, IIT Madras has established itself as a premier centre for teaching, research and industrial consultancy in the country. The Institute has 15 academic departments and advanced research centres across various disciplines of engineering and pure sciences, with nearly 100 laboratories. The IITs are rated among the finest educational institutions in the world as ranked by their peers[citation needed]. Much of the spectacular campus is a protected forest carved from the Guindy National Park and is home to chital (spotted deer), black buck, and other wildlife. A natural lake, deepened in 2003, drains most of its rainwater.
