The two most famous annual events held at NITK are, Engineer (the national level technical symposium) and Incident (the cultural festival). Admission Process, Minimum Qualifications and ReservationThe B Tech admissions are based on the AIEEE (All India Engineering Entrance Examination). The exam consists of three sections on Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.Undergraduate admissions are on reciprocal basis regionwise. 50% of the seats are reserved for students from Karnataka. The remaining 50% are distributed over other NITs on a reciprocal basis. Ten percent of the seats in the undergraduate class are reserved for NRI students under the hugely popular DASA scheme. Admissions are based on the percentages obtained by prospective students in their Grade 12 final examinations. Since a majority of the students apply from after having completed their studies in the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) syllabus, the problem rarely arises. Post Graduate students are admitted to the program through the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) conducted by the Indian Institute of Technologies and the Indian Institute of Science. Graduate students are required to complete a minimum number of courses in addition to a thesis or dissertation that entails independent research under the guidance of faculty. Graduate and Doctoral students are also actively involved in teaching certain undergraduate courses.
