Ans. Applicants must qualify in the examination accepted for their chosen course. BTech admission uses SITEEE or JEE Main results, while GATE is accepted for MTech. The applicable entrance examination forms the basis of course selection.

Ques. Can a Class 12 student or an Engineering Diploma holder apply for BTech?

Ans. Students who have passed Class 12 in the Science stream can apply for BTech. Those with an Engineering Diploma can seek admission through the BTech lateral entry route.

Ques. How are questions, marks and time arranged in the doctoral entrance test?

Ans. Under UGC norms, the test has two parts: Section A covers Research Methodology for 50 marks, and Section B tests the chosen sub-stream for 50 marks. Each multiple-choice question carries 1 mark. Students have 90 minutes to finish, and incorrect answers do not attract negative marking. PhD Nursing applicants take a comprehensive Nursing examination carrying 90 marks.
