IIT Bombay  offers exit option after three-year BTech programme in accordance with NEP 2020

According to the New Education Policy 2020 rules, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay has made it possible for students to withdraw from the BTech curriculum after three years and receive a BSc (Engineering) instead of an engineering degree.

According to the NEP 2020 guidelines from the education ministry, the UGC’s recommendations made reference to a choice where a student could either complete the four-year programme to become an honours graduate or exit the bachelor of honours programme in major subjects after three years as a graduate. Those who continue their education will receive an honours diploma or a “honours with research.”

15 IIT Bombay students may have already exercised the early exit option, according to sources. According to the report, IIT Bombay’s early exit policy will also enable students to take part in institute placements.

Contrary to state universities, many of which are in West Bengal, the IIT Bombay council has resolved to only offer the exit option after the third year of study.

According to sources, these students may be among those who are either struggling to complete the BTech curriculum or want to try something new.
