Education System
The Institute is fully backed and supported by the Jaypee Group of Companies who recognize the role of IT and emerging technologies in improving the quality of life of the people in India. It is envisaged that JIIT will play a leading role in the development of technical manpower and research programs comparable to the best in India and the world.
The academic year consists of basically two semesters. The education system is organized around credit system which ensures continuous evaluation of student’s performance and provides flexibility to choose courses of interest and to progress at an optimum pace suited to student’s ability or convenience. Each course is assigned certain number of credits depending upon the class contact hours. A specified number of credits and CGPA are to be completed satisfactorily in order to qualify for a degree. The medium of Instructions is English.
Programs Offered
Under Graduate Programs
In the pursuit of its objectives, the JIIT has gradually endeavored to increase the number and scope of Programs, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Technology in:
- B.Tech in Information Technology
- B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering
- B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering
- B.Tech in Biotechnology
The Programs of study emphasize strong conceptual understanding and practical skills in their respective areas of specialization. All students are provided with a sound foundation in basic sciences, coupled with courses in the Humanities and Social Sciences.
The education system lays great emphasis on continuous evaluation and transparency. By means of well designed tutorials and practicals, every effort is made to reinforce the concepts taught in the classroom and further enhancement of the learning is made possible by a unique educational concept called Project-Oriented Practice (POP) which consists of a minor project given to students from 2nd to 6th semesters. In the final year, a major project is assigned to students.
Industry internship after the 6th Semester is an integral part of the academic Program leading to overall development of the student through exposure to practical skills in real life situations.
Education Methodology comprises multiple learning stages, specific Lectures, Self-study, Tutorials, Laboratory Work, Assignments, Projects, Research, Internships, Guest Lectures, Seminars, Continuous Evaluation, Examinations and Personality Development Programs.

Post Graduate Program
JIIT has been successfully running M. Tech Programs in Microelectronics Systems and Embedded Technology (MET), Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Material Science and Engineering (MSE). Programs in M. Tech. in Electronics & Communication Engineering and MBA have been introduced w.e.f. Academic Session 2007-08.The objective of the M. Tech Program is to prepare professionals with advanced knowledge of the respective field who can serve industry, R&D organizations and can take up an academic career, including further studies in a relevant Ph. D Program. The 2-year M. Tech Programs are spread over four semesters.
All M. Tech Programs are designed to cover core/compulsory as well as elective subjects to advance knowledge, ability and skills of the students in their chosen area. Students can take the desired electives from the set of subjects offered from time to time to enable them to cater for their interest and to specialize in a particular field. Project and Thesis work are spread over the last two semesters, which provide ample opportunity to the student to carry out intensive work on a chosen topic resulting in an innovative and research oriented output. Seminars are included in the Program to develop presentation skills in the students.
