ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND DATA SCIENCE

(MEDICAL ENGINEERING)

Curriculum and Syllabus

4-year B Tech Program @ School of Artificial Intelligence
2024
B.Tech. Artificial Intelligence & Data Science (Medical Engineering)
A 4-year professional degree conceived and designed for those who aspire to work with computers,
computational modelling and artificial intelligence, for solving real-world problems in medicine.

Program Vision Statements: 1. Training engineers who can work with physicians to provide more
affordable healthcare to public, significantly reducing the cost of educating professionals. 2. Helping the
conventional medical pedagogy to transit to AI technology-integrated biomedical education.

Mission Protocol: At Amrita, we believe in inculcating values founding a culture of the heart.
*Fundamentals, specifics and practices of AIME inculcated with both real and virtual “hands-on” approach,
facilitating experimental, experiential and conceptual understanding.

*Continuous and periodical assessment (using thin clients and servers) with mini-projects, practicals,
assignments, spot-tests, and announced quizzes. (Descriptive evaluations shall be discouraged and higher-
order-thinking and team-spirit methods encouraged.)

*Teaching-learning and assessment processes would have extensive experimental modalities (although not
mentioned specifically), including programming and AR/VR components.

*All Micro-credential courses are of 8 hours’ contact class duration followed by a test and assignment/mini-
project (and subject to change based on demands).

Curriculum: The first five semesters will concentrate on building up the students’ foundations in core
subjects such as Programming/Coding/Maths in AI, Biochemistry/Physiology in Biomedical fields, etc. In the
remaining semesters, students will receive in-depth training in advanced subjects and electives, in addition
to project-based learning. Besides this, one micro-credential course per month would be a routine feature
through all semesters. There would be add-on and bridge courses, workshops/symposia, etc. for those that
desire the same. The contents of the program are in line with the mandates of the National Educational
Policy (stressing on the mandate to nurture interdisciplinary curriculum). The Chairman (at the advice of
the faculty) could introduce contents into the syllabus based on trendy and cutting-edge developments in
the field, to keep the program competitive.

Who is a typical student for the program: (a) If you like mathematics and computers, and want to work in
the bio/medicine/health sector. (b) If you want to be part of the growing AI revolution in healthcare, and
impact societal progression.

PROGRAM SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES/OUTCOMES (PSO): Graduates of this program should be able to:

PSO1: Develop an in-depth understanding of the principles, mathematical concepts, tools and algorithms
of AI applied to metabolic, physiological and allied biological problems in Medicine and Healthcare.

PSO2: Apply AI principles in healthcare data research and analysis, and communicate their findings to the
medical community.

PSO3: Use AI to design innovative solutions for making informed decisions based on data-driven insights,
identify and execute projects applying AI and clinical data to tailor medical treatment and healthcare
decisions to the individual requirement of each patient.
Engineering PROGRAM OUTCOMES

2. Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex engineering
problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and
engineering sciences.

3. Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design
system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the
public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

4. Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods
including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to
provide valid conclusions.

5. Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern
engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an
understanding of the limitations.

6. The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal,
health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional
engineering practice.

7. Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in
societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable
development.

8. Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the
engineering practice.

9. Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse
teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

10. Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering
community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and
design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.

11. Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and
management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage
projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

12. Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in
independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

Teaching & Assessment: Continuous and periodical assessment (using thin clients and servers) with mini-
projects/practicals/assignments/spot-tests/announced quizzes. Descriptive evaluations shall be
discouraged and higher-order-thinking and hands-on methods encouraged. All teaching-learning and
assessment processes may/would have experimental modalities (although not mentioned specifically),
including programming and AR/VR components. Similarly, although the syllabus/CO of any course need not
specifically mention AI/Programming components, their inculcation in teaching/evaluation exercises are
implied. All micro-credential (fractal) courses are of 8 hours’ contact class duration followed by a test and
