The National Institute of Technology Raipur (NIT Raipur) offers a diverse array of programs across undergraduate (UG), postgraduate (PG), and doctoral (PhD) levels, along with specialized diploma, planning, and architecture courses. These programs are designed to address contemporary industry requirements and foster research-driven learning. The institute admits students only in regular (full-time, on-campus) mode; distance or online learning options are not offered for any major degree program.
NIT Raipur’s undergraduate offerings include B.Tech (Bachelor of Technology) in eleven engineering disciplines and B.Arch (Bachelor of Architecture). The B.Tech is a four-year program, while the B.Arch runs for five years. Admission is strictly through competitive exams: JEE Main for B.Tech and either JEE Main or NATA for B.Arch. Eligibility includes a 10+2 qualification with a minimum of 75% marks in PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) for B.Tech, and at least 50% marks for B.Arch. The fee for B.Tech is approximately ₹1.25–5 lakh per year, and for B.Arch it is ₹6.25 lakh for the complete program.
At the postgraduate level, NIT Raipur offers M.Tech (across nine specializations including Chemical Engineering, Information Technology, and Structural Engineering), M.Plan (Urban Planning), MCA (Master of Computer Applications), MSc (in Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics), and MBA. All PG programs are full-time and intensive. For M.Tech and M.Plan, a relevant undergraduate degree (typically B.Tech or equivalent) with a minimum of 60% is required, plus a valid GATE score. MCA requires graduation with 60% and a valid NIMCET rank. MSc candidates must hold a science degree with at least 60% and a qualifying IIT JAM score. Fees for PG programs range from ₹70,000–2.1 lakh per year depending on the specialization.
PhD opportunities are available in engineering, sciences, humanities, and planning. These programs emphasize full-time research and advanced coursework, requiring a master’s degree in a relevant discipline with a minimum of 60%, and qualifying in exams like GATE, UGC-NET, or CSIR-NET. Annual fees for PhD are about ₹30,000. The admission process typically includes an entrance test and interview.
Though NIT Raipur does not currently offer a standalone diploma program, short-term certificate and skill development courses are occasionally organized under various departments, mainly for industry professionals and teachers. These are always delivered in-person at the institute.
All programs at NIT Raipur are offered in the regular mode (face-to-face, in-person attendance required). There are no provisions for recognized distance, correspondence, or fully online undergraduate, postgraduate, or doctoral degrees. Periodic workshops or value-added courses may supplement regular studies with blended or digital content.
