The core program, spread over four semesters, comprises six courses in Mathematics and Computing each. There will also be courses in sciences, humanities, and other streams of engineering.

Students can then choose softcore credits from the courses from the Mathematics and Computing streams and other electives from across the institute.

The institute has designed study streams in Mathematics, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Computational Science, Theoretical Computer Science, Quantum Computing, Signal Processing, Computational Biology and Mathematical Finance to help the students select from the variety of courses available and channelize them towards specialisation.

In the fourth year of study, they have a choice of undertaking research or industry projects. They can even do an MTech by taking an additional year of coursework and project credits.
