Honours and Minor
An honour is the field in which a student focuses during the course of his/her degree. An Honours degree typically refers to a higher level of academic achievement in the major area. Minor is a secondary concentration of courses that often complements the honours. Minor are coherent sequences of courses which may be taken in addition to the courses required for the B.Tech degree.
Honours Certificate for Vertical in his/her OWN major for Research orientation; Minor in any OTHER branch for Improving Employability.
Only students having no credit arrears and a CGPA of 7.5 or above at the end of the fourth semester are eligible to register for B.Tech (Honours / Minor). After registering for the B.Tech (Honours / Minor) program, if a student fails in any course, s/he will not be eligible for B.Tech (Honours / Minor).

MINOR
The philosophy behind Engineering as an academic discipline has been to orient the knowledge seekers in a manner that shatters the theoretical boundaries and pushes them into the realms of a practical world view.
The focus of the institute always been to orient the students towards the technologies that shall drive the world in the years to come; with this philosophy the institute has decided to launch the Bachelor of Technology in a particular branch with minor in a specified program.
The Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech.) with Minor program focuses on the fundamental principles of multiple Engineering disciplines, critical and analytical thinking and the ability to develop a distinctive approach to the interdisciplinary problems.
Objectives
The key objectives of offering B. Tech. with Minor program are:
- To expand the domain knowledge of the students in one of the other branches of engineering.
- To increase the employability of undergraduate students keeping in view of better opportunity in interdisciplinary areas of engineering & technology.
- To provide an opportunity to students to pursue their higher studies in the inter-disciplinary areas in addition to their own branch of study.
- To offer the knowledge in the areas which are identified as emerging technologies/thrust areas of Engineering.
