“The programmes are designed for executives and these do not require a GATE score for admission. The programs offer a flexible completion timeframe of one to three years, catering to diverse schedules,” the IIT said.

Moreover, participants can leverage the credit transfer feature, potentially waiving up to 60 credits for future higher education endeavours (MTech/PhD) at IIT Kanpur. The eMasters program at IIT Kanpur is distinctive as it grants senate-approved eMasters degrees at the convocation, rather than diplomas or certificates.
