DIPIETE Examination Pattern & Syllabus
DIPIETE examination is divided in two Sections viz. Section A & B with a total 15 theory papers (8 in Section A and 7 in Section B) and 4 labs (2 labs in Section A and 2 labs in Section B). Each Section is divided in two parts viz. Part-I and Part-II. In addition a student has to undergo a project work and a Course in Communication Skills & Technical Writing.
The course on Communication Skills & Technical Writing is mandatory but would not count towards overall CGPA. Distribution of subjects is as under:

(b) SECTION B
(i)PART-I Four subjects & 1 Lab

The student should appear in Section A Part-I first and then in Part-II. If a student appears in a part in first attempt, he can appear in the subsequent part in next attempt even though he/she may not have passed in the subjects of the previous part. 21.
