Not just programmes but there is a range of flexibility in the degree awarded from the Institute, below is some of the specially designed degree courses which students can opt for:
- 5 year Dual Degree programme (B Tech + M Tech). A student can even move from a science (Bachelors of Science) to an engineering stream of (M Tech).
- Dual Major Programme (Two B.Tech degree), if a student wishes to opt for two B.Tech degrees in different streams he can choose Dual Major Programme and get two B Tech degrees in selected streams.
- A student can also choose an MS Program by research, the goal of such a programme is to fill the gap between educational research and industrial collaboration.
