Why S.R.M. Institute of Science and Technology stands out
S.R.M. Institute of Science and Technology is a large private deemed university based at Kattankulathur, near Chennai, with a broad mix of professional schools on one campus. It runs a dedicated international admissions route for students from outside India, welcoming foreign nationals alongside non-resident Indian, PIO and OCI applicants. The university’s Directorate of International Relations handles these applications, and an international advisory board of academics from universities around the world supports its global outlook.
What you can study
The university offers undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programmes across engineering, medicine and health sciences, management, law, science and humanities, architecture, agricultural sciences, pharmacy and hotel management. Engineering and computing are among its best-known areas, while the health sciences, including medicine, dentistry, nursing and physiotherapy, give international students a wide choice of professional degrees.
International admissions
Foreign nationals and NRI, PIO and OCI candidates apply through the university’s dedicated international admissions route rather than the domestic entrance route, and a share of seats is set aside for this category. Applicants submit their academic records and the documents listed by the Directorate of International Relations. Full details of eligibility, the application form and the current cycle are on the official international admissions page.
