AI and Robotics Course Duration
B.E. or B.Tech duration
A regular B.E. or B.Tech programme generally takes four years and contains eight semesters.
| Academic stage | Typical focus |
|---|---|
| First year | Mathematics, science, programming and basic engineering |
| Second year | Algorithms, electronics, mechanics, sensors and embedded systems |
| Third year | AI, machine learning, robotics, vision and control |
| Fourth year | Advanced electives, internship and major project |
M.E. or M.Tech duration
A full-time M.E. or M.Tech usually takes two years. It may contain advanced coursework, laboratories, research methodology, seminars and a dissertation.
Diploma duration
A diploma commonly takes approximately three years, although entry routes and durations differ.
Integrated-course duration
An integrated engineering programme may take approximately five years.
B.Sc duration
A B.Sc commonly takes three or four years depending on the curriculum and framework. It should be evaluated separately from B.Tech.
PhD duration
A PhD can take several years depending on coursework, research, publications and thesis evaluation.
Internships
Internships may involve:
- AI software development
- Industrial automation
- Robot integration
- Embedded programming
