Two major categories of programs offered at VIT-B are Master of Science (MS) & Master of Professional Studies (MPS). MS is a conventional master’s program while MPS is known in the name of a “program for working professionals” in India.

In a 1+1 master’s program, students study with VIT-B in the first year & get to enroll in an international university partner in the second year. This program is aimed to fulfill the dream of candidates to Study Abroad at a lower fee range.

VIT-Bangalore is an institutional wing of VIT, Vellore Institute of Technology, & holds similar recognition as the parent institution.

VIT-B offers easy admission criteria for its master’s program that include “No Entrance Exam.” However, an interview session is conducted by the foreign university for the promotion to the second year in a 1+1 master’s program.

On enrolling in VIT-B’s 1+1 master’s program, the foreign university waives the requirement for GRE which would be mandatory in case of direct enrollment to the foreign university.

On taking up a 1+1 master’s program at VIT-Bangalore, you can choose between Binghamton University (SUNY), Rochester Institute of Technology, University of Michigan - Dearborn, & University of Maryland, Baltimore County for the second year of studies.

These courses are completely valid & approved by UGC which gives them equal recognition in the industry just like the on-campus programs.
