Chronicle of Higher Education : Compared with its Asian rival China, India has been less successful in luring its expatriate researchers in the US, Europe, and Canada back home. That shortcoming is being redressed by the newest campus of India’s elite Indian Institute of Technology. As the Chronicle‘s Shailaja Neelakantan reports, IIT Ropar in India’s northwestern state of Punjab has former researchers from IBM and Los Alamos National Laboratory among its faculty. The recruits cite the university’s favorable treatment of young professors as one of its attractions.
