Does GGSIPU have a course in Smart City Technology?

Not as a standalone degree title, but yes as real coursework: VSET (VIPS-TC) covers Smart City Technology inside B.Tech Industrial Internet of Things. Smart city technology uses connected sensors, networks and data platforms to manage traffic, utilities, waste, safety and civic services. At VSET it maps most closely onto the Industrial Internet of Things programme, applied to urban infrastructure. Below is what that coverage actually includes and what to verify before counting on it.
