BDes course from 2022-23

BTech in design from 2025
Prof Rao said, “Two years down the line, we are also starting BTech in design that will start in 2025. If we are able to recruit faculty, we might start it even earlier.

MTech in MINDS for both students, industry professionals
The IIT Delhi Director said, “Our senators have just approved MTech in MINDS (Machine Intelligence and Data Science) and the course will be offered from next year. The entry will be through GATE and even industries can also sponsor the course for their employees.”
