About the IIT Madras Online BS Programs 2025
Great news for students and professionals! IIT Madras has announced admissions for its online BS degree programs in Data Science & Applications and Electronic Systems for 2025. These programs break traditional barriers by offering IIT-quality education without JEE scores, seat limits, or age restrictions.
Why This Program Stands Out
No JEE Needed: Open to all students who’ve passed Class 12, regardless of their stream (Science/Commerce/Arts).
Flexible Learning: Study online, take exams at nearby centers, and earn a full BS degree or exit earlier with certificates/diplomas.
For Everyone: Over 38,000 learners are enrolled, including working professionals, career changers, and international students.
Affordable: Scholarships cover up to 75% fees for students from households earning less than ₹5 LPA.
Who Can Apply?
