The IITGN Explorer Fellowship is an annual summer program that enables students, organised in small teams, to undertake a six-week adventure across the country. Fellows must travel to at least six states with at least one in the Northern, North-Eastern and Southern parts of the nation on a budget. They are required to plan their trip frugally, traveling by sleeper class on trains or by state government buses, and staying at low-cost accommodations such as youth hostels, homestays, and dharamsalas. The program empowers students to set off on a journey of discovery, wherein they encounter diverse cultures and lifestyles. The program was introduced in the year 2015 and has completed its fifth edition. In the last five years, the fellowship has been availed by 115 teams involving 342 students, who have created some very special memories during their six-week tour of the country.
