The BSc (Hons) Cardiac Care Technology (B.Sc. CCT) at PES University is a future-focused, competency-driven undergraduate program designed to develop highly skilled professionals equipped to contribute to the evolving landscape of cardiovascular healthcare, advanced diagnostics, and interventional cardiac services.
The program offers a rigorous and integrated academic framework that brings together foundational cardiovascular sciences, advanced diagnostic technologies, clinical education, practical skill development, and research-oriented learning. Students are trained across key domains of cardiovascular technology, including electrocardiography, echocardiography, cardiac catheterization and angiography, haemodynamic monitoring, and cardiac critical care, alongside contemporary cardiovascular instrumentation, quality assurance, and radiation safety practices.
A defining feature of the program is its emphasis on experiential and clinically oriented learning. Through structured hands-on training in advanced echocardiography laboratories, cardiac catheterization laboratories, simulation and laboratory environments, and clinical settings, students develop the technical competence and professional judgement required to perform, analyse, and support a broad range of cardiovascular diagnostic and interventional procedures.
The curriculum is designed to foster clinical competence, technological proficiency, critical thinking, and evidence-based practice. Strong emphasis is placed on patient safety, ethical and professional conduct, effective clinical communication, interdisciplinary teamwork, and adherence to quality standards.
Graduates of the program are positioned to play a vital role in the delivery of accurate, dependable, and timely cardiovascular diagnostic services, supporting clinical decision-making, disease detection, treatment planning, therapeutic monitoring, and preventive cardiovascular care. The comprehensive nature of the program opens pathways to professional opportunities across tertiary-care hospitals, cardiac catheterization laboratories, echocardiography and diagnostic centres, cardiovascular research institutions, healthcare technology organizations, and the medical device industry.
Students seeking admission to the B.Sc. CCT program should have completed recognised secondary school studies, 10+2 or equivalent examination with science subjects including Physics, Chemistry, Biology (minimum 50% marks) from a recognised university or board. Admission shall be on the basis of the candidate having appeared for the National Eligibility Entrance Test (NEET), in accordance with applicable regulatory and NCAHP admission norms for allied and healthcare professional courses.
Students from other boards without English as a compulsory subject may be encouraged to choose English as an elective from available resources on Swayam and similar platforms.
