Bangalore, 15 February 2022: Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore, India’s top ranked Research University, has launched four new courses for Academic Year 2022-23.
A new BTech in Mathematics and Computing has been started with selection based on JEE (Advanced) Exam. An M.Sc. coursework-based programme is being offered in Life Sciences and in Chemical Sciences.
Lastly, the MTech. course programme is also being offered in the Bioengineering discipline.
Prof. Vinod Sharma, Dean, Faculty of Engineering , of IISC Bangalore, said “This year, with the emphasis on the National Education Policy 2020, and the importance of practical training, we have introduced new degree programs of M. Sc. in life sciences, and chemical sciences and M. Tech. in bioengineering. In addition, based on the success of our path-breaking four-year undergraduate program in science, we now bring to you a four-year interdisciplinary program of B. Tech. in mathematics and computing. Importantly, we offer quality training with personal attention.”
IISc Bangalore admits students to Ph. D., Integrated Ph. D., M. Sc., M. Tech., M. Tech. (Research), M. Tech. (online), M. Des., M. Mgt. and the four-year undergraduate degree programs. The areas of interdisciplinary research include mathematical and computational sciences, quantum technologies, energy, bioengineering, brain and artificial intelligence, water and climate change
