Minimum Requirements
The minimum qualification for admission to any of the programs at iiit-b is a first-class four-year bachelor's degree in engineering (i.e. B.E., B.Tech., or equivalent). Holders of an MSc in any of the physical sciences, or an MCA degree, can also apply. Final-year students expecting to graduate by August 2009 may also apply.

 

Admission to the M.Tech. program is on the basis of prior academic performance (at the high school level and beyond), performance in the iiit-b's online admissions test and an admission interview. Applicants with good scores in the GATE examination and GRE examination may be eligible for waiver of Entrance Examination (see below).

 

Candidates with GATE Scores Applicants having valid GATE scores from selected disciplines are welcome to apply for the M.Tech. program. Such applicants may qualify for waiver of the entrance examination. See the admissions brochure for a list of disciplines whose GATE scores will be considered for waiver.

GATE scores from the following disciplines will be considered for this purpose:

Candidates with GRE Scores
Applicants who meet the minimum requirements and have valid GRE General Test scores are welcome to apply for the M.Tech. program. Such applicants may also qualify for waiver of the entrance examination.

International Students
Foreign nationals (FNs) and non-resident Indians (NRIs) are welcome to apply for the M.Tech. program. Such applicants can obtain a waiver of the entrance examination with valid GRE and TOEFL scores. Only those students whose undergraduate education was in an Anglophone country (i.e. Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, UK, and the US) are exempt from TOEFL. FNs and NRIs who are short listed for the interview, can also seek waiver of the interview by submitting three letters of recommendation.

Working Professionals
Working professionals applying for the M.Tech. program must get leave for the duration of the M.Tech. program. Such applications have to be sent through the employer (or accompanied by a letter from a supervisor or other authorized representative of the employer stating that there is no objection to the applicant's joining iiit-b as a student). Working students will also need sponsorship from the employer, or obtain support from other sources to meet their costs, as scholarships and other financial support are not available to working students.
