BTech Fees of Government Colleges, IIT and NIT in India 2024

BTech program is like gold dust in India, students in lakhs enroll for the undergraduate program to complete their graduation degree. However, it isn’t a cup of tea for every student to enroll in the BTech program, only those who have a knack for inventions and innovations or have a passion for subjects like physics, mathematics, and chemistry prefer to study BTech.

BTech stands for Bachelor of Technology, a technical 4-year/3-year graduation program where learners have to choose a single discipline to gain expertise from various disciplines like Computer Science, Civil, Electronics and Communication, Mechanics, Information Technology, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning to name a few disciplines.
