COURSE STRUCTURE* FOR 5-YEAR B.TECH – M.TECH (CSE) DEGREE
(*Subject to further re-organization/updation/revision based on experts’ feedback)
PREAMBLE
With an objective to prepare learned and skilled professionals for SAARC countries having strong conceptual and practical background, a dual degree B.Tech – M.Tech (Computer Science and Engineering) programme of five years duration is offered. The salient features of the programme are:
The University follows a unique up-to-date curriculum with the aim of equipping students with strong analytical and technical skills as well as thorough knowledge of and expertise in the latest state-of-the art techniques in Computer Science as well as in the interdisciplinary disciplines so that they can work competently in diverse areas including industry, teaching and research and development. Besides having a good mix of theoretical and lab-oriented computer science courses together with a reasonable amount of training/learning in the interdisciplinary domains, the Dual Degree B.Tech.-M.Tech (Computer Science and Engineering) programme has a project component which also provides an opportunity to students to work on research problems under the close supervision of faculty members so that they are equipped to work in leading industries, international R&D institutions or pursue a career in top-ranking academia towards higher education and research.
MINIMUM ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
A student must have passed the Class 12 or Higher Secondary or any equivalent qualifying examination in Science stream (having Mathematics and Physics/Chemistry as mandatory subjects) with a minimum of 65% marks in aggregate based on education board recognized by any of the SAARC nations.
SELECTION PROCESS
The following admission process is adopted:
Route 1: Merit list based on JEE Main (conducted by IITs) scores.
