Apply through the route matching the qualification, nationality and intended cohort. Other routes require their own admission and fee-category verification.

## Admissions

A two-year full-time postgraduate programme in VLSI System. The academic structure includes core and elective study with the programme’s project, laboratory or studio components. Admission depends on the exact qualifying-degree and entrance-paper combination.

These are the documented requirements for the named admission route. Academic subjects, marks, entrance paper and any nationality conditions must be considered together.

- Qualifying-degree aggregate: 60% or CGPA 6.5/10 for GEN/EWS/OBC-NCL; 55% or 6.0/10 for SC/ST/PwD. If both marks and CGPA are given, CGPA governs; prohibited percentage/CGPA conversion is not used.
- Regular CCMT 2026 requires a valid GATE score from 2024, 2025 or 2026. The qualifying degree and GATE paper must appear together in this programme’s mapping.
- Accepted GATE paper codes in this programme: CS, EC, EE, IN. Each paper is restricted to its paired degree group; the list does not make every paper valid for every branch.
- Accepted qualifying degrees are the exact named branches in the programme-specific admission groups below. Read the degree and entrance paper together, including any ordered group priority.
- Candidates of NRI origin with overseas degrees need AIU recognition and the valid entrance score under the counselling notice; other overseas routes have separate rules.
