New for March 2009! The IIT are semi-independents schools that provide undergraduate and graduate degrees. the first was founded in 1950 in Bombay. Combined IIT admission is quite competitive, only 5,500 students are accepted each year from 300,000 applicants!

There are eight fully established IIT, with more in the works to bring the number to 16. Wikipedia has more info on this.

There are a lot of great lectures on microwave topics (and much more) loaded on Youtube. The National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) which is a joint venture between the IIT and the Indian Institute of Science.
