Postgraduate degrees offered by the institute are classified into two categories: degrees by research [PhD, Integrated PhD, and M.Tech (research)], and degrees by coursework (M.Tech., M.Mgt., and M.Des.).

Research programs leading to masters and doctoral degrees are the main thrust in many departments. The program has a limited amount of course work, essentially to prepare the student to carry out the research. The Integrated PhD program is designed to offer opportunities to 3-year B.Sc graduates for pursuing advanced research in areas of biological, chemical, mathematical, and physical Sciences, leading to the PhD degree. Research students constitute the largest group (over 65%) on the campus.

The two-year M.Tech. program is available in almost all engineering departments.
