There are also a number of central facilities such as the Central Library, Central Workshop, and Printing Press. Many new research facilities have been acquired or developed in the last few years. One of the most important of them is the Computer Centre which started functioning in 1986 with facilities which have been continuously updated. The Computer Aided Design Centre with its own minicomputers and workstations, supplemented by additional computing facilities, caters to CAD activity in Chemical Engineering and Metallurgical Engineering. Research groups like VLSI Design, CAD/CAM also have computing facilities which are accessible to other departments for development activities. Recently, work on developing medical implants has been initiated. The [[OrthoCAD Network Research Cell]] was established in 2007 to jump-start indigenous research and development activities in orthopedic reconstruction systems. Important experimental facilities set up by various departments include laboratories for robotics, biotechnology, microelectronics, microprocessor applications, telematics, remote sensing, low-temperature physics, and aerodynamics.
Earlier IIT Bombay announced the online classes for the batch 2020-21 from August 10. A fund raising campaign was launched to help the students in need. The batch of 1994 of IIT Bombay donated Rs. 1.25 crores to help the students and provide them with laptops and internet connections which will be helpful for the online classes. The director of IIT Bombay thanked the alumni members for their constant support towards their college.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.ndtv.com/education/iit-bombay-alumni-from-1994-batch-donate-rs-125-crore-for-online-classes|title = Education News: IIT Bombay Alumni from 1994 Batch Donate Rs 1.25 Crore for Online Classes}}</ref>
 
India's first Quantum Diamond Microchip Imager will be developed by PQuest Lab of IIT Bombay, in a strategic alliance with [[Tata Consultancy Services]] (TCS). With the use of this sophisticated sensing instrument, semiconductor chip inspection will become even more precise, chip failures will be decreased, and electronic device energy efficiency will increase.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Sah |first=Purnima |date=2024-05-28 |title=IIT-Bombay, TCS to build India’s first Quantum Diamond Microchip Imager |url=https://www.thehindu.com/business/Industry/iit-bombay-tcs-to-build-indias-first-quantum-diamond-microchip-imager/article68224240.ece |access-date=2024-06-03 |work=The Hindu |language=en-IN |issn=0971-751X}}</ref>
