Continuing Students

New Students

IIT Bhilai offers 4-year BTech programs in the six engineering disciplines: Computer Science and Engineering, Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science and Metallurgical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering.

The BTech program (normally) runs for four consecutive academic years, where each academic year consists of two regular semesters – termed as the Monsoon and the Winter semesters – and a Summer semester. The Monsoon semester begins around the last week of July, and ends in the last week of November. The Winter semester starts around the last week of December and ends in the first week of May. In between the Monsoon and Winter semesters, the institute also runs a Summer semester that normally starts in the second week of May and ends in the first week of July.

Before a semester begins, every student is required to register for the relevant courses based on the requirements of the program he/she is enrolled in. Institute may offer regular courses in the Summer semester, and the BTech students interested in taking such courses may register for the Summer semester.
