Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Technology University (DBATU) has announced a Major-Minor degree program for students pursuing Bachelor of Technology as a major reform from the academic year 2020-21.
The Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Technology University (DBATU), has become first of its kind in the State to have such a facility, said Nilesh Patil, executive council member of DBATU. Very few universities offer such a program in the country, he added.
Patil asserted that students get to study two degrees with the program. While they can continue securing a Major degree in BTech, they can also opt for any minor program. Students who could not opt for their desired degree subject can also opt for the same as a minor program.
This will be a major boost when it comes to employability. While a student can opt for mechanical engineering as a major degree, the same student can go for computer engineering as minor, added Patil, who also happens to be the principal of MIT.

Adding more information about the University’s plans of expansion, Abhijit Wadekar, also an executive council member of DBATU said that the University has plans to develop various centres across the state including in the city.
Students, businesses, and faculties will get benefits from these centers as they will be based on the local industries, said Wadekar.
