Architecture students from IIT Kharagpur and America’s MIT will soon conduct a joint study on how to preserve the heritage of Rabindranath Tagore’s abode in Santiniketan.
The department of architecture and regional planning at IIT Kharagpur has tied-up with the School of Architecture and Planning at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for a course to study urbanisation in the current developing world.
A group of 6-8 students, at graduate and undergraduate levels from each institute, will come to Santiniketan this October for their research work.
