IIT Delhi, Michael & Susan Dell Foundation collaborate to support
economically weaker students amid COVID-19
IIT Delhi and the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation (MSDF) have come together to bridge the increasing digital divide in education for students from economically weaker backgrounds and support them to complete their education amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

To support such economically weaker students, IIT Delhi took initiative to ensure that they have devices like laptop, smartphone, tablet and high-speed internet connection.
