The Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) has launched its executive programme in healthcare entrepreneurship and management. The new programme will be offered through the Continuing Education Programme (CEP). CEP is a statutory body of IIT Delhi for conducting certificate programmes and issuing certificates.
According to a statement released by the institute, the programme seeks to develop future-ready professionals capable of steering India’s healthcare innovation landscape.
Applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree to register for this programme. Prior work experience or project-based exposure is desirable. The programme is delivered over five months through weekend live online sessions and dedicated project hours.
Saying that India’s healthcare system is undergoing a defining shift and digital health adoption, medical device innovation, AI-driven diagnostics, wearable technologies and patient-centred care are advancing at an unprecedented pace, the statement added, “At the same time, the sector continues to face structural challenges such as fragmented care networks, regulatory complexities, limited commercialisation pathways and a growing need for multidisciplinary leadership.”
The IIT Delhi’s executive programme in healthcare entrepreneurship and management will be offering a learning experience that covers the full lifecycle of healthcare innovation.
Over five months of live online learning supported by guided project work, participants explore how healthcare challenges can be converted into market-ready opportunities through careful design, prototyping, testing and commercial strategy.
The programme will be anchored by IIT Delhi’s Centre for Biomedical Engineering and enriched by clinical insights from experts at AIIMS Delhi. Led by faculty including Dr Arnab Chanda and Dr Biswarup Mukherjee, the programme will blend engineering, clinical, managerial and entrepreneurial perspectives to help participants develop practical and scalable healthcare solutions.
