There are 60 seats each in 4-Year B.Tech in Aerospace Engineering and 4-Year B.Tech in Avionics. whereas there are 20 seats in 5-Year Dual Degree (B.Tech and Master of Science/ M.Tech).
The announcement for admission in the UG programmes is made via a newspaper advertisement.
As per the official date available, last year the opening and closing percentage for B.Tech. (Aerospace Engineering) programme was 43.89% and 34.17% respectively for the general category.
For the B.Tech.(Electronics and Communication) programme the opening and closing percentage was 66.94% and 33.05% respectively in the general category.
