The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are autonomous public institutes of higher education, located in India. They are governed by the Institutes of Technology Act, 1961 which has declared them as institutions of national importance, and lays down their powers, duties, and framework for governance etc. The Institutes of Technology Act, 1961 lists twenty-three institutes located at Bhilai, Madras, Delhi, Dhanbad, Dharwad, Goa, Guwahati, Jammu, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Bombay, Roorkee, Bhubaneswar, Gandhinagar, Hyderabad, Indore, Jodhpur, Mandi, Palghat, Patna, Ropar, Tirupati and Varanasi. Each IIT is an autonomous institution, linked to the others through a common IIT Council, which oversees their administration. The Union HRD Minister is the ex-officio Chairperson of IIT Council.
The IITs have a common admission process for undergraduate admissions, called IIT-JEE, which was replaced by Joint Entrance Examination Advanced in 2013. The post-graduate level program that awards M.Tech, MS degrees in engineering is administered by the older IITs (Kharagpur, Bombay, Madras, Kanpur, Delhi, Dhanbad, Roorkee, Varanasi, Guwahati). M.Tech and MS admissions are done on the basis of Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). In addition to B.Tech, M.Tech and MS programs, IITs also award other graduate degrees such as M.Sc. in Maths, Physics and Chemistry, MBA, PhD, etc. Admission to these programs of IITs is done through Common Admission Test (CAT), Joint Admission Test for Masters (JAM) and Common Entrance Examination for Design (CEED). IIT Guwahati and IIT Bombay offer undergraduate design programmes as well. Joint Seat Allocation Authority 2015 (JoSAA 2015) conducted the joint admission process for a total of 19 IITs.

Hello Ravi,
Business Administration and Business Management, both have their base in commerce and are management oriented courses which have acquired prominence with the rapid growth of industrialisation. It was this industrialisation which led to the development of a scientific approach towards business. Though the nomenclature of BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration) and BBM (Bachelor of Business Management) differs, both are professional courses, taught over a span of three years and are essentially the same, in terms of curriculum and core content. The core components include Human Resource Management, Marketing, Organizational Behaviour, International Trade and Business Law.
While BBM has been developed to make students comfortable with the management techniques that prevail in the corporate world, BBA acquaints students with the process of managing and supervising business and related operations of a company. One significant difference between the two courses which is noteworthy is that BBM provides specialization in a variety of areas such as Human Resources, operation, finance, and marketing whereas BBA does not meet this criterion. After completing the course in either BBA/BBM, MBA is a popular option whereas students can also go for MS in finance or accounting which can further aid them in joining Banking or Finance sector. They can also find jobs in banks, retail sectors, insurance sectors, medical administration, etc.
Thank you.
