You need a B.E. or B.Tech with 50% marks, or 45% if you are a Tamil Nadu BC, BCM, MBC, SC, SCA or ST candidate. You also need a GATE score or a CEETA-PG score.

| Requirement | What you need |
|---|---|
| Degree marks | 50% in B.E. or B.Tech (45% for Tamil Nadu reserved communities) |
| For Information Technology | B.E. or B.Tech in CSE, IT, ECE, AI and Data Science, Software Engineering or Cyber Security |
| For Rubber Technology | B.E. or B.Tech in Mechanical, Chemical, Production, Polymer, Automobile, Metallurgy or Petroleum, or an M.Sc in Chemistry |
