A Holistic Approach to Alternative Healthcare - lifelong learning
At MAHE, the Division of Ayurveda plays a crucial role in providing healthcare to the public for their well-being (SDG3) and offering quality education (SDG4) for both qualified Ayurvedic physicians and students with a higher secondary qualification. The division offers two specialized programs. The Post Graduate Certificate Course in Panchakarma (PGCPK) is a six-month course designed for BAMS graduates, focusing on both theoretical knowledge and practical applications of Panchakarma therapy. This course empowers graduates to deepen their knowledge and gain the confidence to establish their own Panchakarma therapy centers. The second program, Panchakarma Technician and Massage Therapist (PTMT), is a one-year course meant for 10+2 qualified students, providing practical knowledge to trainees in delivering various Ayurvedic Therapies as per the instructions of the physician. This enables them to work in Panchakarma and massage centers, assisting the doctors.
These programs promote alternative and sustainable healthcare practices. The clinics and therapy centers, often based in rural areas, offer employment opportunities and empower students from all backgrounds to pursue meaningful careers in health and wellness.
A New Dawn in Cybersecurity- Certificate Course on Basics in IoT Security - lifelong learning
In the spring of 2022, a monumental step in cybersecurity was taken. On April 22nd, MAHE partnered with the Information Sharing and Analysis Centre (ISAC), a renowned non-profit organization dedicated to cybersecurity. Together, they signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish the MAHE-ISAC Centre of Excellence (CoE) for Cybersecurity, marking the beginning of a transformative journey in the field.
The newly founded CoE would focus on two key areas—Internet of Things (IoT) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, both critical to modern infrastructure. With cybersecurity threats evolving rapidly, MAHE and ISAC recognized the urgent need to address vulnerabilities in these areas. They envisioned a future where their center would be a hub of innovation, protection, and resilience.
At the heart of the CoE was the Cyber Physical System (CPS), a state-of-the-art platform that bridged the physical and digital worlds. Through CPS, students, researchers, and industry professionals could interact with real-world scenarios, simulating potential cyber-attacks on smart grids, industrial systems, and even intelligent cities. The center also provided advanced digital simulation platforms, allowing participants to explore multilevel scenarios and threats.
As the collaboration between MAHE and ISAC grew stronger, so did their impact on the cybersecurity landscape. The MAHE-ISAC CoE became a beacon of excellence, training the next generation of cybersecurity experts and helping safeguard the future of technology.
This partnership stood as a testament to the power of collaboration between academia and industry, creating a safer digital world for all.
A 3-day Train the Trainer Programme was conducted from 22nd May, 2023 to 24th May, 2023 at MAHE-ISAC CoE for Cybersecurity, MIT, MAHE.
The centre offers certificate courses both in online and offline mode. Offline mode courses are handled by ISAC professionals and offline courses are handled by MIT faculty. Following are the offline courses offered to both MAHE and other Institutes.
