Hello,

The benefits of a dual degree in IIT are:

  1. Save time – You get two degrees (usually B.Tech + M.Tech) in less time than doing them separately.

  2. Better job chances – Having a master’s along with bachelor’s can help you get better jobs or higher pay.

  3. More knowledge – You get deeper knowledge in your field because of the extra study.

  4. Research opportunities – You can do research projects during the course, which helps if you want to study more or work in research.

  5. Cost effective – Usually, the fees for the extra degree are less than doing a separate master’s.

  6. Flexible career options – You can work in industry or continue for PhD easily.

Overall, it’s a good way to gain more qualification quickly from IIT.

Hope it helps !

Hello Aspirant,

There are many benefits of a dual degree at IITs.

  1. Saving Time: Doing a dual degree means you eliminate the need to complete your B.Tech and M.Tech (or MS) program in 6 years separately and it's just 5 years to find your career path.
  2. Reducing Financial Burden: It will only cost you 5 years instead of B.Tech + a later separate post-graduate degree in the long term.
  3. Early Research Exposure: You are going to get an experience earlier in research projects and do work in a research lab which is a main skill set you'll need if you are looking at R&D jobs or higher studies.
  4. Enhanced Job Opportunities: Many research institutions, as well as positions in core industries (typically R&D or higher technology focused), will look at you as if you will be preferred over straight B.Tech graduands.
  5. Better Graduate School Profile: It will enhance your profile when applying for PhD programs or master's programs to top foreign Universities.
  6. Flexibility: Many IITs will also allow you to transfer to your interdisciplinary programs in which this will enhance further skills at your M.Tech.
