About ECE Specialization in AI and Cybernetics @ VIT Bhopal

The programme B. Tech ECE (Specialization in Artificial Intelligence and Cybernetics) gives an overview of computational and human aspects of intelligence and create intelligent human machine amalgams.
Artificial Intelligence has emerged recently as a major influence on the fields of Biology, Cognitive and Computation Science.
Cybernetics is a field that came into existence when the concepts of information, feedback and control were generalized from specific applications to systems, including systems of living organisms, systems of self-reference and systems of language.
Cybernetics has taken on problems of subjectivity in science while still addressing how to make intelligent artefacts.
The programme is designed to empower students to make systems adaptive through AI.
With an objective to develop communication between human to machine and vice versa or machine to machine, this programme aims to combine an understanding of systems in general, both technological and biological, with a knowledge of relevant modern technologies.
The programme aims to equip graduates with strong practical background which allows them to work in an academic, research or industrial environment.

“The teaching methodology at VIT Bhopal, called CALTech helps us to integrate both our practical and theoretical knowledge. I got a huge help from the faculties of ECE branch and because of them I was able to publish a research paper in 2nd year only. The hands on experience I get in the studios make me capable to troubleshoot real time issues. At VIT we are more prone towards gaining knowledge instead of information. What I learn here is that when life throws the challenge knowledge will stand with you instead of information.”
