What can you create?
Personalized learning systems
You can build AI based personalized learning systems that are paced as per individual preference, adapted to your interests, and have intelligent AI based tutors who help you just where you need it - to make your learning journey effective, adventurous and your own!
AI-based health solutions
You can create AI based healthcare start-ups that help predict and diagnose diseases such as cancer and tuberculosis early with higher accuracy, through deep learning algorithms and image recognition technologies.
Music, art and more
Companies already use big data to help people discover amazing new music and movies aligned to their tastes, find clothes they like better and more. Soon you can even use AI to create hit songs (look up “Not Easy”), create best-selling art and anything else you imagine!
Learning Experiences
Multidisciplinary approach & interdisciplinary perspective
Interacting with and drawing from multiple fields of expertise, making connections between disciplines, analyzing the humanistic, socio-economic, and technical contexts of problems.
Foundational Tech core
Developing an interdisciplinary foundation featuring math, physics, computer science and engineering principles such that they come together as an integrated whole, not segmented topics.
Design & research ability
Identifying and understanding human needs and solving problems creatively through sustained critical investigation.
Innovation & entrepreneurship mindset
Finding opportunities, identifying business models, embracing ambiguity to create value in the marketplace or in society.
Societal responsibility
Considering the social and human consequences of actions and responsibilities to others in local, national, and global communities; acting to improve the human condition.
Leadership & self-reflection
Creating impact through actively developing skills like communication, creativity, critical thinking and collaboration.
Experiential Learning
Integrated learning experience across 4 years. You will work on authentic, real world projects through industry and community engagement or by research with faculty.- Coding Cafe and Makerspaces
- Entrepreneurship
- Student led clubs
By having access to state-of-the-art makerspaces and coding cafes and incorporating them in the curriculum, students will become more context-aware, develop critical thinking abilities, and learn by creating. This will help foster a tinkering and problem solving mindset, immersing students in experiential learning from day one. These areas will be open to students to explore, create, prototype and design, while also housing equipment and technologies like 3D printers, sensors, etc.
The core curriculum will not just be limited to engineering and sciences, but bring in exposure to entrepreneurship and design which will enable humane and empathetic outcomes through technology. Each student will undertake multiple different experiences to develop skills like finding opportunities, creating value, and embracing risks. Students will be mentored and supported by Plaksha founders and professionals from industry.
Recognition Systems
You can build higher quality and safer AI based facial recognition technologies and voice recognition systems to run our processes and applications, biometrics to secure our identities on public systems and a huge number of applications in our daily lives.
