What are the best aspects of your programme? 

The best aspect of the programme, according to me is the project-based courses. Many courses involve working in group projects throughout the course duration. In my opinion, this helps in learning and understanding the concepts better. Also, it simulates a working atmosphere where you might work with a big group of people to solve problems.

Yes, I am doing the Machine Design specialisation track in the programme. I have always been interested in the design aspect of mechanical engineering, using my knowledge to problem-solve and create unique solutions.

One of my favourite course has been Component Design, where we used the concepts learnt in earlier courses.
