Madras Launches Two Cutting-Edge B.Tech Programs for 2025 Admissions

The institute introduces Computational Engineering and Mechanics (CEM) and Instrumentation and Biomedical Engineering (iBME) to address Industry 5.0 demands, with admissions through JEE Advanced and JoSAA counselling.

The two new courses announced by IIT Madras are: B.Tech. in Computational Engineering and Mechanics (CEM) and B.Tech. in Instrumentation and Biomedical Engineering (iBME).

Overview

  • The new programs—CEM and iBME—will begin in the 2025-26 academic year, each offering 40 seats to JEE Advanced qualifiers.
  • Both programs are housed under the Department of Applied Mechanics and Biomedical Engineering, established in 1959 at IIT Madras.
  • Students can upgrade to a five-year Dual Degree (B.Tech + M.Tech) through the Interdisciplinary Dual Degree (IDDD) option.
  • The CEM program integrates classical mechanics with modern computational tools like AI, machine learning, and high-performance computing for careers in aerospace, robotics, and sustainable technologies.
  • The iBME program focuses on developing next-generation medical devices, blending biomedical engineering with IoT, AI, and instrumentation to meet global healthcare challenges.
