Geoinformatics specialization
The Geoinformatics specialization will also offer Diploma of Institute (DIIT) program. Admission in the DIIT program will be through interviews only. These interviews will be held on 9th May.
DIIT (offered in three areas: Geodesy, Navigation and Mapping, and Remote Sensing/GIS) (Same qualifications as for MTech/ MS (R))
- Preference will be given to working professionals in Government departments/institutions, Industry, and Faculty members in Academic Institutions involved in teaching and R&D in Geoinformatics.
- No requirement for a GATE score for the DIIT program.
