IIT Madras BS In Electronic Systems Programme: Applications are open till May 2024 for this programme, which is taught Online with lab sessions at IIT Madras campus.
Chennai: The Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) has invited applications for the Third Batch of the Bachelor of Science (BS) in Electronic Systems programmeme. This four-year programme features multiple exits and the students can get a Foundational Level Certificate, Diploma or BS degree. More than 1,000 students are pursuing the programme currently. It imparts industry-ready skills in the Electronic Systems field. An important goal of this programme is to create a pool of graduates skilled in the electronics and embedded manufacturing sector in India. The programme aligns with the India Semiconductor Mission to make India a global hub for electronics manufacturing and design.
This programme was launched in March 2023, with significant emphasis on accessibility, affordability and inclusiveness in education. The applications are open for the May 2024 term until May 26, 2024. Those interested can apply through the following link - https://study.iitm.ac.in/es/
Highlighting the unique points of this programme, Prof. Boby George, Faculty Coordinator, BS in Electronic Systems programme, IIT Madras, said, “This programme integrates online learning of theory with hands-on laboratory experiences and in-person examinations. This innovative approach marks a significant milestone in making high-quality education accessible to anyone anywhere who is interested in studying from this programme and underscores IIT Madras’ commitment to providing cutting-edge and impactful learning opportunities.”
Elaborating about the programme, Prof. S. Aniruddhan, Faculty Coordinator, BS in Electronic Systems programme, IIT Madras, said, “The positive experience and memories for both students and staff reaffirms the importance of incorporating in-person practical experiences into our curriculum. This initiative represents a significant step forward in redefining the possibilities of hybrid education. Several courses offered at the foundation and diploma levels are designed to prepare students to seamlessly transition into internships or employment opportunities while they pursue their programme.”
An often-asked question is how students can perform experiments in various lab courses required by this course. The programme design for labs has two parts where students do experiments on a weekly basis and submit videos explaining their work. This culminates in an in-person visit to IIT Madras campus where the students perform the experiments again and complete the examinations.
More than 700 students from across India participated in the first set of laboratory sessions that were conducted between November and December 2023 in four batches. These sessions allowed students to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting using a general-purpose electronic kit, fostering a deeper understanding of electronic systems. This visit also enabled the students to meet their batch mates and interact with them and make friends.
