“IIT Mandi is committed to developing science and technology relevant to the Indian knowledge system. The establishment of the M.S. and PhD programs in music and medicine is a significant next phase in this attempt. This course will examine Indian music's therapeutic benefits for the overall health of the body, mind, and consciousness, in addition to its scientific foundations," said IIT Mandi Director Laxmidhar Behera.
