Do we have the option of changing branch at the end of 1st year as from bio-technology to chemical engineering in IITs?

If yes, what is the eligibility criteria of the same? Can we also change the stream from science to engineering as IIT-Kanpur provide both options of B.Sc and B.Tech?

  • Hello Anish,
    Yes, you can change the branches from biotechnology to chemical engineering and any other choices. The only way is to have a high score in the semester exams like 9/10 or more CGPA/CPI. The one with a high score will be given the first preference. In case of a tie, JEE Advanced ranks will be used.
    I think this provision is available in all IITs.
    But, you cannot change from B.SC to B.Tech, as they are two different streams.
