In the past, the Institute has offered about 5 scholarships each year (out of the 150+ students) to meritorious students joining the M.Tech programme (CSE+ECE). The Institute expects to offer a similar number of industry-funded scholarships in the current year as well. The scholarship amount covers almost all student expenses over the duration of their M. Tech programme. The selection for these industry-sponsored scholarships is carried out by the industry representatives along with IIITB faculty coordinators.

In addition to the IIITB scholarships, GATE-qualified students will be eligible for fellowships from AICTE as per AICTE norms (across CSE and ECE).

Since the M.Tech programme is very demanding, and classes, tutorials and laboratory sessions often extend beyond regular working hours and during the weekends, staying at the hostel accommodation provided by the Institute is mandatory.

The male students admitted to the M.Tech programme will be provided accommodation in an off-campus hostel facility arranged by IIITB. The female students will be provided hostel accommodation on campus itself. The hostel fee rates are applicable uniformly for all the students irrespective of the hostel location.

Special Admission Round: depending upon the availability of vacant seats, there may be a special admission round held in-person on IIITB campus.   

Eligibility for special round: all those who have applied and are within the specified cut-off (irrespective of the status of acceptance of previous offers, if any).

Note: The admission committee reserves all rights to alter the schedule depending upon the prevailing circumstances.
