What does the curriculum of IIT Jodhpur emphasize on? It emphasizes on:

$ The fundamentals of basic and engineering sciences to enable the students to have a broader multi-disciplinary perspective for the specialization being pursued

$ Early design courses focus heavily on conceptual design methods and less on discipline-specific artifacts.

These courses teach that the students could begin to think and work like engineers

$ Avenues created for making students continuously engaged in these intellectual processes throughout the curriculum and at an increasingly sophisticated level through design credits

That is not all. With these courses, IIT Jodhpur is addressing the requirements of a modern engineering curriculum such as:

$ Flexibility to understand and manage rapidly evolving technologies

$ Ability to identify, define as well as solve problems

$ Proficiency in theory and applications

$ Skill for handling out-of-the-box engineering challenges

The integrated BTech programmes of IIT Jodhpur also focus on:

$ Developing greater technical depth by offering ‘Department Area Specialization’ leading to five-year B.Tech. + M.Tech. which allows students to pursue an in-depth study of the topics of interest belonging to the program

$ Innovation through Specialization in Engineering Innovation has also been introduced with the aim of making students industry ready by offering five months Practical Project jointly with an Industry or R&D organization.

This way, the students get real-world experience working for an industry on a project that complements their academic experience.

$ Emphasizing on the development of technical skills in multidisciplinary areas and upcoming fields including Artificial Intelligence, Cyber-Physical Systems, Internet of Things, Robotics, and Smart Healthcare, among others.

With the evolving patterns of knowledge creation across disciplines a Double B.Tech. with a second degree in Engineering Science is also introduced at IIT Jodhpur to pursue newer structures of programs in addition to traditional ones to provide the ability to apply diverse knowledge and skills flexibly in novel situations.
