Ans. Candidates applying for the part-time M.Tech in VLSI Design and Embedded System at DTU through the GATE route must hold a valid score in the Electronics and Communication Engineering (EC) paper of GATE 2026. Non-GATE candidates may also apply and appear in the DTU M.Tech Admission Test. A valid GATE score can be up to three years old from the result date, subject to DTU’s admission policy for the current session.

Ans. The total academic fee for the 3-year part-time M.Tech in VLSI Design and Embedded System at DTU is INR 3,84,500. Year 1 and Year 2 each cost INR 1,27,000, and Year 3 costs INR 1,30,500 following a marginal tuition revision. GATE-admitted students receive a monthly stipend of INR 12,400 from AICTE throughout the programme, which considerably offsets the total fee commitment over three years.

Ans. Yes. The part-time M.Tech in VLSI Design and Embedded System at DTU is designed for working professionals in the semiconductor, VLSI, or embedded systems industry. Classes are held in the evening at the DTU campus in New Delhi. Candidates must have at least 1 year of work experience and submit a No Objection Certificate from their employer.
