Frequently Asked Questions

A minor degree is an optional and supplementary area of study that students can pursue alongside their primary or major degree. While the major is the primary focus of a student's academic.

Registration for a minor degree starts from the fourth semester of the B.E./B.Tech. program.

Students are required to complete all required minor degree program courses and earn at least 18 credits before completing the major degree program.

Yes, all prerequisite courses for the minor must be passed before major degree completion.

Yes. You will get assured 3 interviews after the course completion. Our team will prepare you for the interview by conducting several mock interviews, assisting in resume building and more to crack the interviews with ease.

A computer system equipped with a web camera, microphone, and internet connection (minimum speed 1 Mbps) are the basic technical componential requirements for pursuing the course.

You may communicate with our mentors who are available during the session and the same doubts will be taken up by the IIT Mandi faculty during the session
