Indian Institute of Technology Jammu (IIT Jammu) has launched a new programme. The four-year Bachelor of Technology (BTech) course is in Unified Engineering. It will begin from the 2026-27 academic session. Full details are listed at iitjammu.ac.in/ue.
The course is offered by the Department of Interdisciplinary Program. It will combine several engineering domains under one degree. Students will learn by building, experimenting and solving live problems. The course is designed for emerging technology sectors.
Specialisation Tracks Offered Under the Programme
The programme allows students to pick a focused track. Each track combines core engineering with applied, project-based learning. The institute has listed the following concentration areas.
| Specialisation Track | Focus Area |
|---|---|
| AI and Robotics | Artificial intelligence systems and robotic platforms |
| Energy and Sustainability | Renewable energy, clean systems and resource use |
| AI for Society | Applied AI for social and public problems |
