The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Palakkad here on Tuesday claimed that it made remarkable progress through novel initiatives in the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
IIT Palakkad Academics Dean Anand T.N.C., and Industry Collaboration and Sponsored Research (ICSR) Dean Santhakumar Mohan said in Palakkad that the institution had taken several steps like the introduction of choice-based curriculum, new BTech programme in data science, and launch of the Centre of Renewable Energy (CoRE) in three years.
They said the new choice-based-credit-system ensured well-rounded education by integrating courses in the basic sciences, mathematics, engineering, humanities and social sciences, in appropriate proportions.
