IIT-Delhi launches BTech in Design; JEE Advanced score required

IIT Delhi new course: This is a four-year long programme which has 20 limited seats per batch.

The Department of Design at the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (IIT-D) today launched a new four-year undergraduate programme ‘BTech in Design’ from the academic year 2025–26. This is a four-year long programme which has 20 limited seats per batch.

Admission to the BTech in Design programme in IIT Delhi will be based on JEE Advanced rankings. However, aspirants will also have to qualify in the design aptitude test, UCEED (Undergraduate Common Entrance Examination for Design).

This is a transdisciplinary programme of combining the strengths of technology and design. The aim of the programme is to promote a “unique combination of learning processes namely systematic discovery and understanding as engineering education does and exploration of individualistic and creative leaps as design education does,” the official notification stated.

Additionally, the programme would offer courses, with about half of the courses belonging to the core discipline of design and the rest coming from other departments, centers, and schools (similar to the other BTech programmes). The curricula has been designed in a way that it will encourage students to collaborate and form partnerships between the design department and other departments/centers/schools.

“Our expectation is that after graduating from IIT Delhi with a BTech in Design degree, the students will take up, in the long run, leadership positions in industry, academia, government, consulting, and entrepreneurship. The program offers enough choices and freedom for the students to exercise diverse career paths,” said Prof. Jyoti Kumar, HoD, Department of Design.

“As the proposed curriculum is geared to prepare students for leadership positions, it is broad-based and analogous to the existing programmes at IIT Delhi. The approach of the Institute would be to create new leaders in design who can see the big picture as generalists and have the ability to go into details as a design specialist does,” Prof. Kumar added.
