The M.Tech. (VLSI) program is specially designed for professionals working in the area of VLSI. Participants can earn a regular M.Tech degree without having to quit their jobs. They can attend live lectures from anywhere via an online platform. These live lectures are conducted by IIT faculty mostly on weekends or after business hours. Hence, the program schedule allows working professionals to advance their education and career simultaneously. The duration of this MTech program is usually 3 years, of which, 2 years are for course work and 1 year for dissertation. The M.Tech. program is equivalent to our residential M.Tech. program in all respects, including number of credits, and rigor in the courses and thesis research. Upon successful completion of the MTech in VLSI program, students of this course are granted the same alumni status as any other residential students pursuing their degree in IIT Roorkee. Every semester, there is a contact program where participants can interact directly with faculty and teaching assistants (TAs). This provides an opportunity to clarify doubts, engage in in-depth discussions, and receive personalized guidance on course material. Participants get access to advanced Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and Technology Computer-Aided Design (TCAD) tools, providing hands-on experience with industry-standard software used in VLSI design and research. The program features an industry-friendly Intellectual Property (IP) Policy, designed to facilitate collaboration and innovation between academic and industry partners. This policy ensures that both the participants and their employers can benefit from the research and developments made during the course, fostering a mutually beneficial relationship.
