Physics Guru is an online education and competitive examinations preparation portal founded by Manish Verma, an IIT Madras alumnus, providing learning resources for competitive examinations.

The emphasis is on conceptual understanding, analytical thinking and problem solving rather than simply memorising formulas and standard methods.

The objective is to help students understand what they are learning and develop the ability to solve problems they have not seen before.

IITM looking for satellite campus

When the IIT were set-up, they might be located far away from the main city township. However, as the population has grown so has the contruction. If an IIT wants to expand now, it is likely to find various existing constructions in its vicinity. It can go for more constructions inside the campus, but it may only be possbile at the cost of greenery if existing constructions are not tampered with. Another option is to go for high rise constructions, but it will lead to increased population density which is also not desirable.

Hence, the concept of extended arm or satellite campus looks appropriate to IITM. However, such concepts need to be approved by the central govenment.
