MIT Manipal Collaborates with Deakin University to Launch Dual-Degree Programme

MIT Manipal has announced a collaboration with Deakin University, Australia, to launch a dual-degree programme. This initiative aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of their chosen field and enhance their career opportunities in the engineering and technology sectors. The dual-degree programme enables students to earn two globally recognised undergraduate qualifications from leading universities in four years. Students can choose their major from two discipline areas: Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics Engineering.

The programme combines modern theory with industry-standard skills. The 2-year BTech course at MIT and the 2-year Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) at Deakin University equip students with the skills needed to create innovative solutions to real-world engineering problems. Dr. Anil Rana, Director, MIT, expressed his enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating that it strengthens academic ties and expands the reach of education across continents, cultures, and knowledge fields.

MIT Manipal students who meet the eligibility criteria may be considered for the Deakin International Merit Scholarship (South Asia), which offers a 20% or 25% tuition fee waiver. The programme also offers seamless credit transfer between both institutions and a full-time student experience in India and Australia. Upon completion, students will be awarded two degrees: a BTech from MAHE Manipal and a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) from Deakin University, Australia.

GUJCET 2026 Maths Expected Difficulty and Recent Trends
February 19, 2026 11:00 AM

GUJCET 2026 Expected Difficulty: Will Maths Stay Moderately Difficult Like Recent Years?

The aspirants who are appearing for GUJCET 2026 are seen to be bothered by one question which is - Whether Mathematics will be as moderately difficult as it has been in the previous years or will it be comparatively tougher this year. GUJCET is entirely based on the GSEB Class 11 and 12 Maths syllabus. As observed in the previous paper patterns, Mathematics has tested both the student’s conceptual clarity as well as their problem-solving skills. While GUJCET Maths’ level of difficulty has changed from one year to another, there is a certain pattern that you can see: the exam usually stays moderate, offering some variations towards the difficult side in terms of the framing of questions and the complexity of numbers. The 2025 paper saw a shift in application-based, conceptual questions rather than direct formulas. Calculus (10-12 questions) and 3D Geometry (6-8 questions) were among the high-weightage chapters.

Yes, you can get admission to National Institute of Technology Tiruchirappalli through JEE Main, but eligibility depends on meeting the current admission criteria set by JoSAA. Generally, for B.Tech admission via JEE Main, candidates must have passed 10+2 (or equivalent) with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Diploma holders are typically eligible for lateral entry into the 2nd year at some state colleges, but NITs usually do not offer lateral entry admissions. If you are in the final year of a diploma and have not completed 10+2 with PCM, you may not be eligible for regular B.Tech admission at NIT Trichy through JEE Main. It is important to check the latest JoSAA eligibility rules to confirm your specific case.

With a 473 score in GATE 2024 (Data Science & AI), admission to top IITs for core AI/CSE programs may be difficult in the General category, as their cut-offs are usually higher, but you may have realistic chances in newer IITs, some NITs, IIITs, and interdisciplinary or Data Science specializations depending on seat availability and category. As a female candidate, you can benefit from supernumerary seats for women in IITs and NITs, which can slightly improve your admission prospects, but final chances depend strongly on your category and the specific institute’s closing scores.

Dear Student,

No, Manipal University Bangalore does not accept KCET scores for direct admission to its BTech programs. For BTech at Manipal Institute of Technology Bengaluru, admission is based on the Manipal Entrance Test (MET), not KCET.

Thank You!

Securing Microelectronics at BITS with a GATE score of 534 is competitive. Alternatively, LPU offers a robust M.Tech in VLSI with industry-aligned curricula and advanced labs. Admission is available via GATE or LPU’s own entrance exam, providing hands-on training and strong placement opportunities with top tech firms for aspiring engineers.
