Students would be enrolled for the fiveyear dual degree programme, culminating in a Btech and an MTECH/MS degree.

The webpage, jnu.ac.in/se, with details of courses, degrees, disciplines, and programmes was also launched on Monday.

RK Agrawal, the dean of the school of engineering, said, “We offer Btech only in two streamsComputer Science and Electronics and Communications. The first three years of the course would be Btech courses, then in the seventh semester there will be some overlapping between Btech and Mtech or MS courses. The last three semesters would be purely Mtech or MS courses, as per the specialisation the student would choose,” he said.
