Minor programs
Minor programs are being offered in certain areas as options for integrated first degree students with the intent
of encouraging them to add focus to their supplemental learning (outside a major area) as well as recognizing
and certifying the knowledge obtained in an area that is outside of their major area. A minor would allow a
Department (or multiple Departments) to offer a package of courses in an area/sub-area to students for whom
this area/sub-area would not be part of their (major) program (e.g. a minor in Finance for students who are not
pursuing a program in Finance). A minor will be recognized by means of a separate certificate.
At present Sixteen minor programs viz. Minor in Aeronautics, Computational Economics, Computing and
Intelligence, Data Science, English Studies, Entrepreneurship, Film and Media, Finance, Management,
Materials Science and Engineering, Philosophy, Economics and Politics (PEP), Physics, Public Policy, Robotics
and Automation, Supply Chain Analytics and Water and Sanitation have been designed which are selectively
being offered at different Campuses. The details of minor programs are described in Part IV of this Bulletin.

Minor in Computational Economics

Description The joint field of economics, mathematics, and computer science have emerged from converging
intellectual needs for interdisciplinary teaching and research. The contemporary tools and
techniques used by computer scientists have become increasingly important for economists
working with data to address complex business problems. Students interested in learning about
computational mechanism design with applications to economics and especially those whose
interest is more generally focused on data analytics will be highly benefitted from this
programme. This programme is designed to cater to the needs of the cutting-edge industry
thereby combining advanced computational tools with economic reasoning. It would help
students to develop a deep background in advanced tools for analysis of economic data, which is
essential for making sound economic decisions. The programme combines the strengths of
multiple departments to educate students in these important computational skills linked to
economics, and to prepare them for careers in economics, finance, and business. Reflecting on
this strong interdisciplinary relationship, this programme will also be excellent preparation for
graduate study in economics or decision sciences.

Minor in Robotics and Automation

Description This minor aims to impart specialized knowledge and skills in robotics and automation required
by engineers to the current demands of various industrial sectors. Automobile, aerospace &
defense, logistics engineering and factory automation companies are currently asking for
engineering graduates with add-on skills in these areas. Feedback has established that several
sectors of industry need the newly recruited employees with knowledge and skills in 'automation',
'robotics', and 'mechatronics'. Currently, the need of core courses of any B.E. programme of the
Institute limits sufficient coverage of these topics in the existing core and hence the only way
students can complement their learning with these specialized courses is through a minor
programme. This minor programme has been designed by keeping that need in focus. This minor
programme consists of a fairly generic core so as to be relevant to students of any discipline and
a broad set of elective courses covering application of the fundamentals of robotics and
automation to various industry sectors.

 Four-semester M.Tech. programmes

Input Qualification:
The students admitted to the proposed four-semester M.Tech. programs must
(i) hold an Integrated First Degree of BITS or its equivalent and
(ii)be employed professionals with adequate work experience in a relevant industry.
Curriculum Requirements for M.Tech. programs
The nature of the input to these programs and the objectives / orientation of Work Integrated
Learning Programs are different from those of the on-campus programs. These programs may be
offered across a broad spectrum of (i) technical disciplines and specializations with as well as (ii)
industry domains and cross-disciplinary subjects. It is also to be observed that learning and
coursework in these programs are integrated within a professional / technical environment.
Based on these facts and observations, the curriculum has been designed in such a way to broadly
enable different combinations of subjects at a higher degree level. In particular, the structure will
enable Departments to offer an M.Tech. program in a broad discipline with or without specialization,
or offer an M.Tech. program in a specialized area within a discipline or across multiple disciplines.
A. Completion of the program would require:
i. At least 12 courses (totaling at least 48 units) towards coursework nominally spread
over three semesters and
ii. Dissertation (16 units) in one semester, that is usually the final semester.
B. The Department(s) offering a specific program must then categorize the coursework
requirement as follows:
i. Core: 8 courses / 30 units (max.)
ii. Specialization (if applicable):
a. 3 courses / 12 units (min.) to 6 courses / 30 units (max.)
b. Some Specialization courses may be mandatory and some may be electives.
iii. Total of Core and Specialization courses may not exceed 10 courses (and 45 units).
iv. Rest of the coursework requirement may be obtained via general electives within the
discipline but not necessarily within the specialization.
v. At most 3 courses out of the total of 12 taken by a student may be at the 4 th level –
the rest must be higher degree courses (i.e. specifically, 5 th or 6th level).

V-40
 Eight-semester Integrated M.Tech. programme

Curriculum Structure for an Integrated M.Tech. programme:

The curriculum structure and requirements of the eight-semester Integrated M.Tech. programme
will include the requirements of the corresponding Integrated First Degree programme and four-
semester M.Tech. programme, with the following provisions:
1. The electives requirement of the Integrated First Degree programme will be subsumed by the
coursework requirement of the Integrated M.Tech. programme, and
2. The Project Work requirement of the Integrated First Degree programme, will be subsumed by
the Dissertation requirement of the Integrated M.Tech. programme.
Given these provisions, the following requirements for the curriculum are proposed:
Number of Number of
Category
Courses Required Units Required
I Foundation Courses 5-10 15-32
II Discipline Courses
Discipline Core 12-16* 42-66*
Discipline Electives 6-12 20-36
Sub-Total 18 - 22 courses# 64 - 80 units
Course-Work Sub-Total 28 courses (min) 96 units (min)
III DISSERTATION 1 16
Total 29 courses (min) 112 units (min)

* Nominally, each course is of 3 units. But, at least two of the Discipline courses are
required to be of 4 units or higher.
# At least eight of these courses must be Higher Degree courses (i.e. specifically, 5th or 6th
level)
Specializations (if applicable)
The Department(s) offering specializations within a specific Integrated M.Tech. programme should
ensure that the following requirements are met:
1. Specialization (if applicable):
a. 3 courses / 12 units (min.) to 6 courses / 30 units (max.)
b. Some specialization courses may be mandatory and some may be electives.
2. Rest of the elective requirements may be obtained through general electives within the
discipline, but not necessarily within the specialization.

 MBA programmes
Input Qualification:
The students admitted to the proposed four-semester MBA programs must:
(i) hold an Integrated First Degree of BITS or its equivalent and
(ii)be employed professionals with adequate work experience in relevant domains.
Curriculum Requirements for MBA programs
The nature of the input to these programs and the objectives / orientation of Work Integrated
Learning Programs are different from those of the on-campus programs. Students interested in
these programs are seeking continuing higher management education and focus in the chosen
technical domain of study, which would enable their career progression within their industry. It is
also to be observed that learning and coursework in these programs are integrated within a
professional / technical environment.
Based on these facts and observations the curriculum has been designed to be in strong alignment
with on-campus program at the core but with sufficient flexibility for customization to meet specific
requirements of a target student population.
Completion of the program would require:
(i) At least 13 courses (totaling at least 52 units) towards coursework, and
(ii) Project (12 units).
The Department concerned may identify 4 to 8 courses out of the coursework requirement for each
program as the Management Core requirement, and 4 to 6 courses of the coursework requirement
for each program as the Domain Core requirement. The core requirements are mandatory for all
students in a given program. However in certain highly specialized areas, some variation in the core
requirements may be permitted. Rest of the coursework must be completed through elective
courses.
The curriculum requirements common to all MBA programs is given below:
Category No. of Units Required No. of Courses Required
Management Core 24-40 6-8
Domain Core 16-25 4-6
Electives 3-15 1-3
Subtotal 52 (min) 13 (min)
Project 12 1
Total 64 (min) 14 (min)
Project: As Project is based on the work environment of the student, the number of units for Project
may be kept as 12. Normally, the Project is to be undertaken in the final semester of the program.

This part gives a detailed description of all the courses.
Offering of courses: The academic calendar consists of two regular semesters. The summer term is not part of the aca-
demic calendar except where specifically stated. The offering of courses shall always depend on the normal unfolding of
these courses for regular students who should be able to negotiate all the courses required as compulsory or electives as
they proceed within the stated number of years in the programme. Very often any departure from this practice is subject to
the overall facilities available. It will be invariably taxing of facilities to help the largest number of students when possible.
For instance, same course is offered in both the semesters where only one is necessary, in the pattern described above.
Depending upon the need and the facilities, Dean, AUGSD/AGSRD decides the courses that will be offered in any particu-
lar semester and this information will be made available through a course-wise timetable at the beginning of every semes-
ter.
It will be clear from the above discussion that a student who wishes to exercise his choice of electives can do so only
through courses available in the timetable and not courses which are mentioned in the bulletin. Nonetheless, students can
easily guess, on the basis of previous timetables, which courses are likely to be offered in what semester and make an
advance planning to the extent it is possible. Similarly, a student who has backlog will find that he is already out of phase
with the pattern that has been described earlier and therefore has to work out a strategy for himself by which he reduces
fouling up as much as it is possible for him to do so.
While registration in a particular course or set of courses is governed by Academic Regulations, for easy reference the fol-
lowing general guidelines together with specific points are listed.
1. The Dean, AUGSD/AGSRD may introduce or withdraw courses in categories which are taken on the basis of electives
or options.
2. Registration in any course can be made only with the prior permission of the Dean, AUGSD/AGSRD.
3. Although the detailed break-up of the units in terms of hours for lecture and practical classes are presented without
designating tutorial hours, every student will be required to attend these tutorial classes as and when required by the
Dean, AUGSD/AGSRD.
4. In the structure of a programme a block of courses follow in a particular sequence semester after semester. The mere
fact that no specific restriction has been put does not permit unwarranted jumbling of this sequence. This sequence is
presented in semesterwise pattern for each programme.
5. The lists of courses to be followed invariably have numbers attached to each course. These numbers generally de-
termine the level at which the course is to be normally registered. However on the same plane there are courses
which are specially designed for group C programmes and are not available to students of groups A&B programmes.
Appropriate sections of the Bulletin may be consulted.
6. Sometimes a particular course has a prerequisite condition which has to be fulfilled before one can register in that
course, or has to be waived with the consent of the Dean, AUGSD/AGSRD.
7. For registration in certain specific courses like Specialized Discipline Courses, Higher Degree Courses, apart from the
prerequisite, there will also be requirement of prior preparation. Academic regulations must be consulted for this.
8. For students registered in courses of Off-Campus Work Integrated Learning and Collaborative Programmes corre-
sponding instructions have been detailed in PART V.
Note: The items mentioned above are not exhaustive. For precise rules reference should be made to Academic
Regulations.
