• For students who are interested in B.Tech streams after a diploma, the Madras Institute of Technology provides part-time courses in the same disciplines.
• Every campus of Anna University, whether it is MIT, CEG, SAP, or ACT, provides part-time courses for students.
• For a student interested in a part-time course, he/she must have a minimum two-year work experience in the industry. Along with the experience, students also need to show a letter from the current employer about the recommendation of admission.
