Undergraduate Course
The Undergraduate Course serves as a critical driver of a nation’s progress and
advancement, representing a dynamic entity that necessitates continuous adaptation
to uphold educational excellence. Our institution offers a comprehensive 4-year
B.Tech program in Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE). The academic
calendar comprises distinct odd semesters (from July to December) and even
semesters (from January to June) for each academic session.
Technology’s rapid advancement fosters new connections, leading to evolving
aspirations, expectations, collaborations, and partnerships. Within this context, our
proposed scheme focuses on three key elements: implementing the 2020 National
Education Policy (NEP), the growing role of artificial intelligence, and integrating
industry-aligned curricula.

1 Program Educational Objectives [PEO]

PEO 1: Empower graduates with a comprehensive set of technical skills, fostering
entrepreneurial acumen and a research-oriented mindset, thereby equipping
them for prosperous careers in the field of electronics and communication
engineering.

PEO 2: Forge partnerships with industries and research establishments to address

pertinent societal challenges through interdisciplinary collaboration,
contributing effectively to innovative solutions.

PEO 3: Instil a sense of social responsibility and ethical values in students, motivating
them to evolve into conscientious citizens and adept professionals committed
to lifelong learning and self-improvement.

2 Programme Outcomes (POs)

PO 1: Graduates should be able to exhibit a profound understanding and hands-on
expertise in circuit modelling, IC design, VLSI, communications, signal

B.Tech (ECE), Scheme Page 2 of 12

processing, IoT, cyber physical systems and robotics. Employ this knowledge
effectively to tackle intricate challenges within these domains.

PO 2: Showcase adeptness in translating conceptual algorithms from fields like

communications, signal processing, computing, and sensing into real-world
circuits and systems, and analyze their real-time performance.

PO 3: Apply acquired knowledge and skills to conceive and craft cutting-edge hardware
and software systems, as well as innovative products that cater to contemporary
technological demands.

PO 4: Display a comprehensive grasp of knowledge and skills across a wide spectrum,

enabling excellence in research endeavours and interdisciplinary ventures.

3 Multiple Entry and Exit System (NEP 2020)

(A) IIIT Bhopal has proposed a dynamic Multi in-multi-exit system that aligns with
the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 to empower students to make
well-informed educational decisions and attain their career goals. This
forward-thinking approach offers students flexible options at various stages of
their undergraduate journey.

(B) In accordance with the NEP recommendations, the proposed undergraduate

degree program incorporates two distinct exit points, catering to a range of
student preferences and ambitions.

(C) The program’s structure with Entry and Exit Options is as follows:

Entry 1: Admission through JoSAA/CSAB Counselling.

Exit 1: After the second year, students who choose this exit point will earn a
diploma in engineering after completing 84 credits (mandatory).

Entry 2: Eligibility for entry is extended to students who hold an engineering

diploma from IIIT Bhopal after successfully completing a two-year (84-credit)
undergraduate engineering program. A window of up to three years is allowable
after acquiring the diploma to qualify for this entry. Students must meet the

Indian Institute of Information Technology Bhopal, India

B.Tech (ECE), Scheme Page 3 of 12

stipulated B. Tech degree criteria within the timelines mentioned in clause 8 of

the institute ordinances of the B.Tech program. Notably, the permissible gap
duration is excluded from the computation of the overall time limit (8 years), as
mentioned in clause 8 of the institute ordinances of the B.Tech program.

Exit 2: Upon completing the fourth year, students will be conferred with a
Bachelor’s degree (B.Tech), necessitating a minimum of 156 credits.

(D) This progressive educational model empowers students to shape their academic
journey according to their aspirations and circumstances. Through adopting this
multi-in multi-exit system, IIIT Bhopal aims to cultivate a more adaptable and
empowered generation of engineers in alignment with the vision of NEP 2020.
