Tech in Mathematics and Computing & B. Tech in Chemical and Bio-Chemical Engineering. In addition, IIT Dharwad is also offering a five years integrated program called Bachelors of Science and Master of Science in Interdisciplinary Sciences from 2022.

The current campus of IIT Dharwad has been established within the WALMI (Water and Land Management Institute) campus (135 acres), which is adjacent to Dharwad bench of High Court Belur, on the National Highway (NH-4) that connects Mumbai-Bengaluru. With the availability of regular transport service, the campus is easy to reach from any point in Dharwad and all the major facilities are within a 10 km radius from the campus.

Academic Structure

IIT Dharwad follows a semester system. An academic year (July-April) consists of two semesters, each of approximately 16 weeks’ duration. The first semester begins in the last week of July and ends by the last week of November. The second semester starts in the first week of January and ends by the last week of April. In each of the semesters, a student is required to register for the relevant courses listed in the curriculum for that semester.

The Institute follows a credit system. Credits are allotted to various courses depending upon the number of lectures, tutorials and laboratory hours per week. The student’s performance in a course is continuously evaluated throughout the semester and culminates in the award of a Grade on a 10-point scale. Performance in a semester is evaluated in terms of the weighted average of grade points secured in all the courses registered in that semester, which is known as Semester Performance Index (SPI). A Cumulative Performance Index (CPI) is the weighted average of the grade points obtained in all the courses registered by the student since the time of joining the Institute. The B.Tech. programs consist of eight semesters spread over four years. The BS-MS in Interdisciplinary Sciences programme consists of 10 semesters and spread over five years. During the first semester all branches will have a common curriculum.
