Discontinued (Aug 2024)- B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering (Lateral Entry) at Galgotias University

Galgotias University, Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, offers Discontinued (Aug 2024)- B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering (Lateral Entry) as a 3-year undergraduate degree. Fees for the full course come to ₹3.13 lakh – ₹11.72 lakh (roughly ₹1.04 lakh a year).

Lateral entry lets diploma holders (and, at many colleges, B.Sc. graduates) join directly in the second year, so the degree takes a year less. The subjects are the same as the regular programme from the second year on.
