Hyderabad: The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has finally given a nod to Osmania University College of Engineering’s (OUCE) newly introduced undergraduate programs. The new programs include Mining Engineering and Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning along with a postgraduate program in Mining for the 2022-23 academic year.
Apart from receiving approval for the new courses, the college has been granted permission to increase the student intake in the BE Electronics and Communication Engineering program from 50 to 60. The University has also received approval to extend all existing six undergraduates and 18 postgraduate programs for 2022-23.
“The approval and recognition of the new ME program in mining will ensure the AICTE scholarship to the tune of Rs 13,000 for GATE-qualified students,” OUCE principal Dr. Sriram Venkatesh said.
From 2022-23, ten out of thirty seats in the Bio-Medical Engineering program will be reserved for TS EAMCET-qualified students who completed BiPC in Intermediate. Such students will be admitted under the self-finance category and will be required to take a mathematics bridge course. Until now, admission to this program was limited to candidates who completed MPC in Intermediate.
Meanwhile, the OUCE is preparing to launch a revised curriculum for undergraduate and postgraduate courses this year. In response to industry demands and to improve students’ employability, the college has revamped 40% of the curriculum. Experts from industry and R&D organizations, in addition to college alumni, will cover at least 40% of the course curriculum in both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
