IIIT Bangalore Admissions 2026: Programme structure and student options
The BTech curriculum allows students to pursue deeper specialisation via an honours option or broaden study with a minor in a related area. The five-year Integrated MTech is designed for dual-area specialisation.
For the Integrated MTech, the first eight semesters focus on coursework. After coursework, students may choose project work or continue with coursework aimed at higher studies. The institute highlights research exposure and industry engagement as core elements of both UG and PG programmes.
Chandrashekar Ramanathan, dean (academics) at IIIT Bangalore, said: “Our programmes are designed to equip students with deep technical expertise, interdisciplinary exposure, and a strong problem-solving mindset. We look forward to welcoming the next generation of learners.”
The institute’s announcement directs applicants to the admissions portal but does not list exact application deadlines, detailed eligibility rules, fee amounts, or selection criteria. Candidates should monitor admissions.iiitb.net for updates on deadlines, fees, intake capacity and document requirements.
Students aiming to apply should note three immediate points: use the common application on admissions.iiitb.net, a single application covers all listed programmes, and the process is separate from JoSAA. For queries, rely on official communications from IIIT Bangalore.
