IIT and Opus Dei

IIT was set up in commemoration of the centenary of the birth of Saint Josemaría Escrivá, the founder of Opus Dei, an institution of the Catholic Church. Like many similar social projects all over the world, IIT has come out as a result of his impulse. He was greatly concerned about helping the less privileged members of our society to improve their social conditions, such that they could obtain the needed resources to live more dignified lives. The mission of Opus Dei is to help people turn their work and daily activities into occasions for growing closer to God, for serving others, and for improving society.

IIT invited the Prelature of Opus Dei to assist in the moral formation of the students.
