UG Guidelines
2024 curriculumUG GUIDELINES
The 2024 curriculum changed how you build your degree — you now pick most of the shape of it after you arrive. The essentials are below; the manuals at the bottom carry the full rules.
What changed from 2024
Dual Degree
You are admitted to a 4-year programme, then choose whether to extend it to five.
- Either a 5-year dual degree in your parent department, or an Interdisciplinary Dual Degree (IDDP)
- IDDP crosses streams — B.S. (Hons.) Economics into M.Tech. in AI/ML, for instance
- The point is to decide after a few semesters here, not before you arrive
Double Major
A second major in a branch different from the one you were admitted to.
- Register after 1st year: all semester 1–2 subjects done, CGPA ≥ 7.00, no backlogs
- Up to 8 credits may be double-counted — Depth Core only, never electives
- Degree reads “B.Tech. (Hons.) in [parent] and Major in [second]”; you may withdraw any time
Minor
An additional set of subjects from a department that already offers that major.
- From 2024: all subjects up to semester 4 cleared, CGPA ≥ 7.0, no backlogs (Senate 361-8)
- At least three of the six subjects must be taken as additional credits
- GPA of 6.00 across the minor subjects earns you the minor
Micro-Specialization
A compact, niche specialisation you can fit into your elective slots.
- Three parts: a foundation course, one or two listed subjects, then a project or a fourth subject
- Register any semester after the first with CGPA ≥ 7.0; hold CGPA/SGPA ≥ 7.5 to stay registered
- Take the foundation course early — it is a prerequisite for everything after it
Semester Away (SAP)
Spend a semester at another institute, industry or research lab and earn full credits.
- In India or abroad; SAP replaces the older SAIP and is worth 9 credits
- Bolt the mandatory 8-week summer internship onto it for roughly 8 months away
- Dual degree students have their own route: SAPP, a 12-credit 9th-semester project

Scholarships & Financial Aid
Official pageSCHOLARSHIPS
IIT Kharagpur funds its students through Institute scholarships awarded on merit-cum-means, plus a wide set of endowment and alumni-funded awards. Here are the essentials — the official page carries the complete, authoritative rules.
Merit-Cum-Means (MCM) Scholarship
The Institute's principal scholarship for UG and dual-degree students, awarded on combined merit and family-income criteria.
- Open to 4-year B.Tech.(Hons.), 5-year Dual Degree, 5-year B.Arch.(Hons.), 5-year Integrated M.Sc. and 4-year BS students
- Full exemption from Institute tuition fee, plus a monthly stipend set by the Board of Governors
- Paid for all 12 months, July through June; other prescribed fees still apply
- SC/ST students eligible for their State Government's Post-Matric Scholarship are covered by that scheme instead
Tuition Fee Exemption
A fallback for students who meet the means criterion but fall short on merit — fees waived, without the stipend.
- Exemption from payment of tuition fees only
- Restricted to 10% of the students admitted each year
- Means criterion applies exactly as it does for MCM
Endowment & Alumni Funded Scholarships
Awards financed by endowment funds and alumni donors, each governed by the rules of its own fund.
- Several awards go to the "best student" — the highest CGPA in the immediately preceding semester within a batch
- Individual eligibility and value vary fund by fund
- See the official page for the full list of endowments and their conditions
Do you qualify?
Merit criterion
- Fresh entrants: at least 60% aggregate (or equivalent grade) in the qualifying examination for JEE Advanced
- Renewals: GPA of at least 7.00 across the two semesters of the preceding session, as updated after supplementary/summer quarter exams
Means criterion
- Annual family income within the upper limit laid down by the Government of India
- Income for the financial year completed before the session commences is what counts
- Submit an income certificate, both parents' income tax returns, or an income affidavit with every application and renewal
Good standing
- No disciplinary action taken or pending during the preceding year
- No record of examination malpractice or code-of-conduct violation
- Maintain attendance and appear in all semester examinations, barring illness or family calamity
Good to know
You may hold only one scholarship at a time. If you become eligible for another, tell the Dean Undergraduate Studies in writing which one you choose.
If two or more students tie for the last available scholarship, every student in the tie is awarded it — even if that pushes the count past the 25% limit.
Institute scholarships are not blocked by an incomplete EAA requirement (Senate 322.H.I.C.5).
Scholarships resume on re-joining after a temporary withdrawal on medical or family-calamity grounds, subject to eligibility and approval (Senate 328.H.I.C.6).
Outstanding Institute and Hall dues may be deducted at source before the balance is paid out.
False documents or suppressed information stop the scholarship immediately and trigger an inquiry by the Standing Disciplinary Committee.

Extra-Curricular & Campus Life
Student-runCAMPUS LIFE
There's far more than fits on this page
Robotics, dramatics, music, debating, photography, social work — the societies, the inter-hall circuit and every fixture are coordinated by the Technology Students' Gymkhana. Their site is where the current list lives.
Life at KGP runs well past the classroom — major student festivals, a full sporting calendar, and a long list of societies, almost all of it student-run through the Gymkhana.
Kshitij
Asia's largest techno-management festival, run entirely by students — competitions, exhibitions and guest lectures.
Spring Fest
The annual social and cultural festival, drawing performers and competitors from across the country.
Shaurya
The annual sports festival bringing together top athletic talent across colleges.
Wellbeing Day
A campus-wide festival promoting student health, mindfulness, and holistic well-being.
Sport & Extra Academic Activity
Sport isn't optional here — the National Sports Organisation is one of five Extra Academic Activity streams, and clearing EAA is required for the award of your degree. Under the 2024 curriculum, EAA-I to EAA-IV are mandatory one-credit courses across your first four semesters.
