It has become increasingly important that students understand and apply concepts of engineering and science in a holistic manner to meet rapid advancements in technology and requirements of sustainable development.
The new programme will focus on developing a rigor in the engineering science ‘fundamentals’ in the students. The students can pursue a specialization in a chosen interdisciplinary domain, such as Geospatial Science, Environmental Science, Materials Science, and Nano Science as per their interest, aptitude and readiness of the market for such new age courses. The applicants will have to fill in the online common application form available at www.bmu.edu.in/apply-page/, by March 26, 2020.
The primary highlights of the course would be that it would allow students to study subjects where sciences with engineering intersect.
