A. Yes, you can change your branch post admission. At the end of your first year you can apply for the branch change.

A. Branch change strictly depend on your CGPA and that of your other interested peers in changin their branches at the end of second semester. In case of tie in the CGPA, rank of JEE-ADV of applicants will be considered.
The eligibility criteria are:

1. The cgpa at the end of second semester should be:
   1. Greater than or equal to 7.0 for sc/st applicants
   2. Greater than or equal to 8.0 for other applicants
2. The student should have passed all the courses till second semester (including the courses in which S/X grades are awarded).
3. Strength constraints: the strength of any branch shall not exceed 105%of its sanctioned strength, or fall below 90% of its existing strength as a result of branch change.

A. In 1st semester of B.Tech most of the courses are common for all branches. As per previous year, the common courses for mechanical, electrical and computer science branches are

1. MA111 Linear Algebra and Calculus
2. ME111 System Exploration - Drawing
3. CS111 Computer Programming
4. HS111 English/Foreign Language
5. PH111 Physical Excercise I
6. PH111 Electromagnetism and Optics (For CSE and EE student)
   ME112 engineering Materials (For ME student)
7. CY211 chemistry (For CSE and ME students)
   EE111 Physics of Semiconductor Devices (For EE students)

The curriculum for Biotechnology will be updated shortly.
