Students can choose from a variety of electives in the program.

BTech in Engineering Physics- Eligibility criteria

Students who pass the IIT-JEE (Joint Entrance Examination) are accepted into the B.Tech. in Engineering Physics program. In addition, candidates must have passed 12th Class or above from a recognized state or national board at the time they apply.

BTech in Engineering Physics- Course fees

The first semester’s tuition for a BTech in Engineering Physics is Rs 1,00,000. Other fees, such as those for academics, accomodation, meals, transportation, and gymkhana are in addition to the tuition. Students who fall under the SC, ST, or PH categories will receive a full tuition cost waiver.

The most socially deprived students (those whose families earn less than Rs. 1,000,000 annually) will also receive a full waiver of the tuition charge. The other economically deprived students will receive a two-third tuition fee waiver if their family income is in the range of Rs. 1 lakh to Rs. 5 lakh per year.

BTech in Engineering Physics- Career scope

Students can pursue careers in a variety of sectors after completing a BTech in engineering physics, including photonics, climate science, energy systems, econophysics, biophysics, communication technologies, quantum information and quantum computing, micro and nano electronics, machine learning and data science, fundamental and applied research, among others.
