IIT Ropar is introducing BTech in Mathematics and Computing  along with four courses of MTech in Electrical Engineering with specialization in Microelectronics and VLSI(Very Large Scale Integration) Design, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering with specialization in Water Resources and Environment Engineering and in Computer Science and Engineering with specialization in Artificial Intelligence this summer.

Speaking about the New UG Programme, Dr. Somitra Sanadhya, HoD, Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Ropar said, “With increasing industry demand for trained manpower in areas like financial technology, artificial intelligence and information security, there is a dire need to have a course like BTech in Mathematics and Computing, which covers the fundamental mathematics and its computational applications. The new course will cover mathematical finance, numerical computing apart from Computer Science.   This programme has been introduced due to the need for sophisticated mathematics for modern scientific investigations and technological developments. The curriculum is designed to provide students with in depth theoretical background and practical training in computer science, numerical computing and mathematical finance.”

This course is aimed towards training the students to handle problems in the industry and research laboratories through the combined use of Mathematical and Computational Techniques.

The M.Tech programme in Artificial Intelligence is aimed to develop a work force which can step up to the challenges of the upcoming age of artificial intelligence. This program will have basic and advanced courses on Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and the mathematical background needed for the same.

Divulging more, Prof. Deepak Kashyap, HoD, Civil Engineering Department said about the MTech programme in Water Resources and Environment Engineering, “The envisaged M.Tech program covers all aspects of Water Resources Engineering including among other, assessment of surface and subsurface resources, water resources development and management, surface and subsurface drainage, hydropower etc. Further, the program also includes environmental issues related to the water resources development. The program is also open for the professional engineers working n various Government/Private Water Resources or related organization.”

MTech in Electrical Engineering with specialization in Microelectronics and VLSI Design is a cutting edge programme in the Nano Group and in the Electronics Systems and Devices Group. Research in VLSI   works toward developing new algorithms and design methodologies that allow the VLSI designers to design correct, faster, smaller and more power-efficient integrated circuits.
