IIT Bhubaneswar launches blended mode M.Tech Program in Systems Engineering

Bhubaneswar: Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bhubaneswar has announced the launch of its innovative blended mode M.Tech program in Systems Engineering, designed specifically for working professionals in the industry.

This one-of-its-kind initiative aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry, enabling engineers with a minimum of three years of experience in plants or industrial settings to enhance their expertise in modern systems engineering.

This M.Tech program will help build the knowledge needed for understanding the behavior of engineering systems through its courses on modelling of system behavior, testing systems performance, design of systems and the tools and techniques for predicting system behavior such as reliability engineering, statistical machine learning.

The technical management aspects of systems engineering will also be covered through a course on requirements management to prepare the engineers for a range of roles associated with systems engineering.

The curriculum for the Systems Engineering M. Tech Program was developed in collaboration with Applied Materials India Private Limited, a subsidiary of Applied Materials, Inc., the global leader in materials engineering solutions for the semiconductor industry.

Speaking on the launch of the program, Prof. Shreepad Karmalkar, Director, IIT Bhubaneswar, emphasized, “Such programs foster deeper collaboration between academia and industry. Beyond professional development, they open avenues for joint R&D, leading to innovations that can significantly benefit society and contribute to the vision of an Atmanirbhar Bharat.”
