Most B.Tech programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations (mathematics, science and programming), the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means mechanics, electronics and programming together: robotics, control systems and automated manufacturing. Typical first jobs: robotics, automation or design engineer. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Karunya University for the current semester-wise plan.

This is what the course costs, as recorded. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise, and apply to B.Tech programmes at Karunya University as a group.

Colleges revise fees most years, and hostel, transport and exam charges are often billed separately. Confirm the current figure with Karunya University before you pay anything.

For admission to B.Tech. in Robotics and Automation, you usually need Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics, plus Chemistry, Computer Science or another technical subject; most colleges ask for roughly 45–60% in these subjects. The minimum marks on record at Karunya University are: X: 0.0, XII: 45.0, Graduation: 0.0.

Admission to this kind of course is usually through JEE Main and state engineering entrance exams. Reserved-category candidates generally get a relaxation in the minimum marks. Check Karunya University's prospectus for the exact cut-off this year.

The admission process usually runs like this:

1. Check that you meet the eligibility above and register for the entrance exam in time.
