IIT Hyderabad Launches MTech Programmes Merging AI and Computational Methods in Chemical Engineering

The institute says the courses will prepare engineers for data-driven roles in process industries.

Overview

  • The Department of Chemical Engineering announced two offerings: MTech in AI/ML in Chemical Engineering and MTech in Computational Chemical Engineering.
  • IIT Hyderabad describes the AI/ML programme as India’s first to integrate chemical‑engineering fundamentals with artificial intelligence and machine learning.
  • The computational programme centers on multiscale modelling and includes computational thermodynamics, CFD, molecular and reaction modelling, and numerical optimisation.
  • Both courses feature research components, simulation‑based training, and industry interaction to prepare graduates for roles in chemicals, pharmaceuticals, energy, advanced materials, and digital manufacturing.
  • Admissions start in the upcoming academic cycle through the Common Online Admission Portal with GATE‑based selection.
