Academic Programs

Through JEE (Advanced), IITs and ISM offer admission into undergraduate courses leading to a Bachelor’s, Integrated Master’s or Bachelor-Master Dual Degree in Engineering, Science, Architecture, or Pharmaceutics. Both Bachelor's and Master's degrees are awarded to candidates enrolled in the dual degree programs upon successful completion of the course curriculum. In a few of the IITs, students enrolled into the 4-year Bachelor's program have the option to convert to B.Tech.(Honors) and/or B.Tech. with Minors. The types of academic programs offered at IITs and ISM and their minimum duration are tabulated below.

However, not all programs and courses are available in all the institutes. The relevant programs and courses offered in 2015 are given in LIST OF COURSES OFFERED BY IITs AND ISM IN THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2015. The courses that will be offered in 2016 will be announced at the time of seat allocation (i.e., filling-in of choices for admission). 

The programs are credit-based and thus offer the flexibility to progress at one's own pace. A minimum level of performance is essential for satisfactory progress. The medium of instruction is English.
