CFI, introduction November 29, 2007
Posted by amrut in College.trackback
CFI is IIT Madras’ new student run lab. The fund to enable this is donated by the batch of 1981. It is being setup by a group of students (of which I happen to be fortunate enough to be one) under the guidance of the Dean of Students and the Co-Curricular Advisor. More on all that later. Here are somethings that you might like to know.
