Ecole Centrale School of Engineering, Mahindra University (MU) Hyderabad, has announced five new interdisciplinary M Tech programs. These programs are aimed at offering an advanced level of specialisation in new-age technology domains for widespread adoption and an inter-disciplinary integration of engineering from system management to application to life cycle management. The new M Tech courses announced are – CSE, Data Science and AI, Embedded Systems and VLSI, Systems Engineering, and Power Electronics. The University already has M Tech programs in A-EVs (Autonomous Electric Vehicles) and Computer Aided Structural Engineering (CASE).

Students with full-time bachelor’s degrees from recognised Universities with a minimum aggregate of 60 per cent or equivalent grade are eligible to apply. Applicants with a GATE score of 80 percentile and above will have to undergo an interview for admission; others will have to additionally take a written test that ECSE-MU would conduct.
