Course Overview

The Biointerface Engineering training programme is an 8-week course curated by IIT Guwahati. It falls under the Bioengineering and Biological Sciences and Bioengineering category. Both undergraduate and postgraduate-level students can take the course, and they must either have or be pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in any engineering discipline. This elective programme is an AICTE approved FDP course.

The Biointerface Engineering online course aims to introduce a chemical approach to biomedical products and applications. Several vital topics in surface chemistry will be covered, like interactions with biomacromolecules and the role interfacial phenomena play in the behaviour of surface biomolecules. Professor Lalit M. Pandey, a reputed course instructor from IIT Guwahati, teaches the programme.

The Biointerface Engineering certificate programme is an online course. Plenty of video tutorials, study and reference material are available to the candidates completely free of cost. The candidates will have access to graded tests and assignments and can also sit for an end-term examination to get certified.

Eligibility Criteria

To be eligible for participating in the Biointerface Engineering certificate program, the candidate must have a Bachelor’s degree in any engineering subject or discipline.

Furthermore, to qualify for the Biointerface Engineering certificate, the candidates must take the offline examination at the end of the term. In this certification exam, they must score at least 75% marks, that is, 30/75 and at least 10/25 in the internal assessments. The average internal assessment score is calculated by taking a 25% average of the six best-scored assignments out of the total 8.

Swayam will issue the e-certificate only if the candidate can meet the criteria mentioned above.
