Pune, Aug 13: D Y Patil International University (DYPIU), Akurdi, Pune successfully completed a 2-day Induction program for the new students across streams hailing from 2024 Batch at its campus on 06th and 07th August, 2024.

The University has kick-started four new courses, keeping in view the demand. They include Core Engg branches of Mechanical, Civil and Chemical which have been completely revamped with introduction of new technologies such as AI along with Generative AI, Digital Fabrication with Generative Design & Digital Twins.

Besides, work is on for setting up of a Modern Workshop within the University premises, measuring 7000 sq ft with complete renovation. The facility will be meant for additive, subtractive & formative manufacturing along with hybrid systems with modern equipment.

The university has taken a bold step by introducing BTech (Semiconductor) for the first time in the country and an appropriate semiconductor lab is being set up too.
