Does Newton School offer a valid degree for the BTech programme?

The curriculum at Polaris School of Technology is fundamentally different from other new-age tech schools because it is designed around building engineers, not just training candidates. While many modern tech programs focus on short-term upskilling or interview preparation, Polaris follows a Work-Integrated B.Tech in Product Engineering, where academics and real-world engineering run in parallel from Day 1. Students don't “learn first and work later”, they code, build, test, deploy, and iterate on real systems throughout all four years. The curriculum is project-first, not exam-first. Instead of optimizing for marks, it optimizes for outcomes like system design ability, problem-solving, ownership, and production-ready skills. With 5,000+ hours of hands-on coding, internships starting in Year 1, and exposure to Bangalore's tech ecosystem, students gain industry instincts early, understanding constraints, trade-offs, and accountability through experience, not theory. Another key difference is depth and structure. Each year increases industry complexity, from core programming and web development to AI/ML, cloud, DevOps, and finally self-directed deep-tech builds like autonomous systems or generative AI. Learning happens in small, peer-driven cohorts, ensuring close mentorship and high standards

The "B.Tech" tag is a legal academic status in India. How each school provides this differs significantly:

• Polaris (PST): Offers a full-time, on-campus Integrated B.Tech in CSE (AI & ML). The degree is officially awarded by Medhavi Skills University (MSU), which is a UGC-recognized State Private University (Section 2 (f) of the UGC Act). This makes it a formal B.Tech degree valid for UPSC, GATE, and MBA.

• Scaler (SST): Scaler is not a university itself. It provides a B.Sc. in Computer Science from BITS Pilani (online/distanced mode) alongside their own specialisation certificates. While BITS is prestigious, it is technically a B.Sc., not a B.Tech.

• Newton (NST): Similar to Polaris, Newton partners with universities like Rishihood University or Ajeenkya DY Patil University to provide a UGC-recognized B.Tech in CS & AI.

Students have access to a 4-year undergraduate Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence programme at Newton School of Technology. The programme consist of eight semesters which emphasize practical education and industrial-level curriculum. Students discover technical knowledge in Python together with JavaScript and Node.js and Express.js and MongoDB and other programs. The programme forces students to complete a six-month internship programme where employers pay their stipend. A wide range of companies participate in the exclusive hiring opportunities that students can take advantage of. Students will find high-quality education and advanced facilities in this programme but the programme tuition fee remains undisclosed.
