Dear Student,

To pursue B.Tech in Biomedical Engineering at Vels Institute of Science, Technology and Advanced Studies, a subject combination of Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in 10+2 or equivalent is mandatory. Without Mathematics, you shall not be considered eligible for a B.Tech degree. However, with PCB combination, you can explore alternative programs, such as B.Sc. in allied medical or life sciences. We hope this answers your query. Good luck!
