Introducing an exciting new BTech programme in Mathematics and Computing at IISc.
This new undergraduate programme seeks to enter a niche area with the aim of producing future leaders who will be at the forefront of research, development, and innovation in futuristic disciplines and next generation technologies that require deep use of mathematics, computer science, and data science.
The core of the programme spread over four semesters includes six courses each in Mathematics and Computing areas apart from courses in the sciences, humanities, and other engineering disciplines. Study tracks have been designed in Mathematics, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Computational Science, Theoretical Computer Science, Quantum Computing, Signal Processing, Computational Biology and Mathematical Finance. Students can opt for Research/Industry projects in their fourth year. They can also obtain a M.Tech. degree by taking an additional year of course and project credits.
The programme hopes to attract some of the best young minds across the nation qualifying through the JEE Advanced examination. There is much hunger and demand in the industry for such an offering. Students from this programme will be sought after as graduate students across the globe. The location of IISc in Bengaluru, the tech hub of India will be an additional bonus.
