Manipal Institute of Technology, MAHE To Soon Introduce M Tech Course in Defence Technology

The Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT), MAHE, will soon introduce M Tech course in Defence Technology. The specialisation in the subject will be offered during second year of the course. The MIT’s association with Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has resulted in the introduction of the course and also ensured internship programme for final-year postgraduate students at the organisation. Former scientists from the DRDO will be employed as faculty for the course due to the sensitivity involved in the technologies being considered under the programme. The course is expected to be offered at the earliest with documental and discussion processes being underway. MIT Director Cdr Anil Rana said that negotiations are going on for laboratories under the DRDO that are required for the students.
