Sri Ramakrishna Institute of Technology (SRIT), recently signed a pact with MathWorks India – a company that specializes in mathematical computing software.
Through this collaboration, the college will offer a credit course that will introduce 450 first-year engineering students to systems thinking and Model-Based Design using MATLAB and Simulink.
Introducing a system-level perspective in the first year will help students understand how different engineering disciplines and components come together in the design of complete systems. They will also have opportunities to build on this foundation through advanced courses in higher semesters.
“Introducing systems thinking in the first year will help students connect concepts across engineering disciplines and understand how complete systems behave. The course provides an early foundation that students can build on through advanced learning and multidisciplinary projects. It is an important part of SRIT’s journey to make engineering education more industry-relevant,” said Narendran Soundararajan, Joint Managing Trustee, SNR Sons Charitable Trust.
SRIT academicians and MathWorks experts jointly developed the course, which will be delivered by the MathWorks Training Team.
