B. Tech.

IIT Gandhinagar offers 4-year B.Tech. programme in six Engineering disciplines (Chemical, Civil, Computer Science & Engineering, Electrical, Mechanical and Materials Science & Engineering). The admission to the course is through the IIT Joint Entrance Examination (JEE).

B.tech + M.tech (IDD)

This programme enables students enrolled in the BTechprogramme to complete a second major in any other engineering discipline of their interest. For example, a student admitted to Chemical Engineering can opt for a second major in any one of Computer Science, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Materials Science & Engineering. Students may apply for a second major any time after completion of first three semesters. Permission for dual major shall be in the order of merit determined by the student's CPI. Students enrolled in this programme will have to complete all the compulsory courses as defined by the second discipline in addition to the minimum credit requirement of their parent discipline. On successful completion, a BTech degree mentioning both majors will be awarded.

M.tech (2 year)

Biological Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Earth System Science, Electrical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, Mechanical Engineering.

• Minimum of 55% marks / 5.5 (on a 10 point scale) in B.E. /B.Tech./M.Sc. or equivalent in appropriate branches (50% marks for SC /ST)
• Candidates who have a valid GATE score (at the time of interview/written test) are eligible to apply for M.Tech. GATE is not required for application to M.Tech. on a part-time basis or for the PGDIIT programme.
• B.Tech. graduates from the IITs with CGPA/CPI of 8.0 or above (on scale of 10) would be eligible to admission without having to appear in GATE
• Candidates applying for the regular M.Tech. programme and who are sponsored by their employers do not require GATE score and can be considered as sponsored candidates provided (a) candidate has been in service for more than 2 years (b) employer grants 2 years of study leave and (c) employer undertakes to financially support the candidate for the entire duration of 2 years.

PGDIIT In Engineering-- IITGandhinagar also offers an option of a post-graduate diploma in engineering (PGDIIT), which is a one year programme designed to be an intensive course-work based programme with no thesis or research requirements. The coursework requirements and the application procedure for the PGDIIT programme are the same as for the MTechprogramme, however, the PGDIIT programme is only for one year and does not have any research credit requirements. Currently PGDIIT is offered in Biological Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Earth System Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Materials Science and Engineering.
