The programme will promote interdisciplinary learning, combining engineering principles with computer science and cognitive sciences.

“The curriculum combines theoretical foundations with hands-on practical training, ensuring that students develop a deep understanding of robotics principles, algorithms, and technologies,” Yajulu Medury, Vice-Chancellor, Mahindra University, said.

Offered by the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering in the Ecole Centrale School of Engineering, the programme has a minimum of 60 credits spread over four semesters for full-time students.

About two-thirds of the credits are for the course work, and the rest is for the Master’s thesis with a focus on conducting original research.

“The academic fees for the programme is ₹1 lakh per annum, and eligible candidates will also have the opportunity to receive a stipend of ₹18,000 per month as a teaching assistantship from the university,” the university said in a statement.
