Admissions
Empowering
At IIT Bhubaneswar, we work hard to create a "learning community" anchored by our commitment to fostering innovation and entrepreneurship through interdisciplinary collaboration. Each of our "Schools" is conceptually unique yet integrated (by virtue of their shared mission). Mentorship and supporting research capabilities exist through our Career Development Cell (CDC) in order to create opportunities for students to convert technical knowledge into impactful solutions to real-world/global issues.
Admission Process
Undergraduate admissions are strictly merit-based; after qualifying for JEE Advanced (following JEE Main), candidates must then go through JoSAA counseling to be able to obtain admission into IIT Bhubaneswar. Admission into our M. Tech and M.Sc; degree programs is based on GATE and JAM scores, respectively; while Ph.D. selection entails an extensive process of shortlisting applicants based on national exam scores, followed by an extensive technical interview.
Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for B.Tech courses, applicants need to have passed12th grade with Physics, Chemistry and Maths, and have achieved a minimum score of 75% aggregate (65% for SC/ST/PWD) or been in the top 20 percent of students who took their state board exams. For post graduate courses students usually only need to have earned a relevant bachelor degree with at least 60% mark (55% for reserved categories) and obtained a valid national level entrance exam score.
Placements
IIT Bhubaneswar has an actively growing Career Development Cell that serves as a bridge between the student body and multinational as well as domestic companies, adding to the institution's extensive employer resources. The institution's reputation for providing employers with qualified candidates has attracted many international and local companies from all types of industries (i.e., large multinational technology organisations, mainline engineering firms, exponential growth start-up organisations). The majority of students obtained their pre-placement offers (PPO) through their mandatory internships with companies; this successfully establishes an early preference cycle in the placement procedure and is a defining characteristic of the institution's placement policy, with similar placement trends across all disciplines. Texas Tech University stresses technical excellence through its multi-layered and interdisciplinary approach to research, development, engineering, design, and production, so graduates enter the workforce prepared in various capacities within the software developer, data scientist, or original equipment manufacturers (OEM) sectors.
