@IITKanpur This is the request please remove the criteria of jee mains too. Just take students through hackathon and a interview in this program.

JEE Main + prior work in cybersecurity + hackathon. Too complex selection criteria. Can be made simpler. After all its just for admission in a UG course. @Director_IITK

jee mains criteria ? ask nisarga if he cleared jee mains lol dude you guys just put barrier to stop the real talent from coming up

Why not make it an online degree too like the BS programs offered by IIT Madras with no age limits....

Sir, please don't add a 75% board/PCM criterion. Kindly consider JEE Advanced eligible students and skill-based interviews. I have cybersecurity project experience. Thank you.

Education for all.....like @iitmadras did in it's BS degree programs. No age limits, no entry barriers....entrance exam based on 4 weeks curriculum....(interview is okay).... please come out of this mindset that education is only for elites.....why even jee mains?

Not jee mains please

Just call or BTech Cybersecurity 🤷🤷

I understand the course being offered at Masters level. Doesn't it become too narrow a focus at undergraduate level ?

Sir, from where can I find the admission details and criteria, please provide a link along with it. @IITKanpur @agrawalmanindra

19-year-old who exposed CBSE flaws, hired by IIT Kanpur

This should be an MTech course than an BTech one.

Thank you very much, Sir, for these visionary steps. In modern warfare, we need cyber warriors just as much as we need space & air warriors. It's also incredibly important for national security. We like this open approach & focus on this, rather than just sticking with mark! 🙏🏻🇮🇳

Please remove JEE mains I am a commerce student and I am very expert in cyber security I have hacked my own school portal and found some vulnerability in Microsoft services which no one can do and there are lot of students who choose commerce as they have to focus less on study

yoo, i am in 11th and i know mern stack web development, I have been coding since 6th class!!

How to admission sir

Dear sir, Could you please check your inbox? @agrawalmanindra

Plz increase some time for choice filling in jossa @iitmadras @IITKanpur #JOSSA It’s humble reques.

Brilliant, glad to see you and @iitmadras bring up rather unique offerings

@IIMAhmedabad Yes Sir 👍 Cybersecurity starts with securing talent. If our best students leave abroad after training, the nation loses valuable expertise. First secure the brain, then strengthen cybersecurity. Can you review my Finance Security concept, AstraLock? #TheHundi

sir will it be equivalent to btech degree course or graduation. how will it map to educational qualification nominclature in the market...

Plz open this program in distance education mode too. All will be eligible then.

It's cash cow. Don't engage .

Has anybody received the mail for shortlisting for B. Cyber

@iitmadras @IITKanpur @PMOIndia @EduMinOfIndia @HomeMinistr2024 @myogiadityanath Only bluff,IIT Kanpur also cannot stop the corruption. The list of selected candidates flashed on 29 Jun with 120 changed to 121 next day and today it is 122. How is this possible? @RbharatNews
