Initiatives in Multidisciplinary Research

20

• Bio-Medical Engineering / Health Care

21

Research Initiatives: Biomedical Engineering Research

To bring in synergy between fundamental and applied sciences, engineering, and medicine

To facilitate teaching, research, and entrepreneurship in diagnostics and therapy

About 24 faculty members of the institute are participating in the activities of this program

A biomedical engineering program was established in 2013 to meet the challenge of providing affordable healthcare. This program will facilitate innovation in biomedical research to find solutions to our healthcare needs.

22

Prof. G D Puri and Drs. Preeti Mathew from PGI and Navin Kumar from IIT Ropar have successfully developed a closed loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS). The institute will develop CLADS into a wireless device after the technology transfer.

Undergraduate Teaching

Incubation and Innovation

23

Innovation in teaching and Curriculum updation – B. Tech Level

• Tablet PC are being used in classroom teaching and shared with Students on Google drive. Lectures are also recorded and put on Google drive for use of students at all time.

• Flipped lectures are being introduced for certain courses. Students are encouraged to apply their classroom learning to solve basic and challenging problems.

• Courses are sandwiched with mini projects and problem solving exercises for “active learning” mode.

Following new courses have been developed and taught for UG Students:-

1. Computer Aided design and manufacturing

2. Sustainability science and technology

3. Medical devices

4. Biology for engineers

5. Power systems – from fundamentals to network

6. Embedded systems and applications

7. Power electronic devices and circuits

8. Software architecture

Following are some of new laboratories have been built for hands on training of B.Tech Students

1. Bio-Medical Engineering laboratory

2. Bio-Mechanical creativity and Innovation laboratory .

3. Clean and sustainable energy laboratory

4. Engine research laboratory

5. Complex fluids laboratory
