MIT To Design Curriculum For SRM Univ In Andhra Pradesh:- The Andhra Pradesh branch of SRM University will have a new curriculum designed in key subjects by the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
According to a statement released yesterday, the subjects like calculus, electromagnetic theory, classical mechanics and computer programming will have a curriculum for the upcoming SRM University, AP - Amaravati.
The SRM University said, these courses, being developed and designed through the use of MITx courses will include the concepts of hybrid learning by utilizing both traditional and technologically enabled teaching methods.
This will help the students in moving from a traditional learning to a hybrid learning approach by utilizing educational technology and stimulating students to question and discover more.
President of SRM University, Amaravati, P Sathyanarayanan said, “The SRM university is embracing a new method of learning, which is never seen in India before. Practical and application oriented learning will be emphasized through projects and lab courses rather than monologues that are the typical feature of our classrooms.”
“We would like to create a world class environment for our students here at SRM University and we want to help them create tomorrow,” he said.
The SRM university’s faculty will participate in annual design camps to ensure the effective delivery of these courses. The faculty through these camps will learn techniques to blend MITx courses and MIT OpenCourseWare (OCW) course material with relevant local content into the courses offered.
