Ans. NIT Rourkela is a premier engineering and technology institute in India that enjoys a strong reputation for its M.Tech program. The program is well-structured, with a focus on both theoretical and practical aspects of engineering and technology. Here are a few pros and cons of pursuing an MTech from NIT Rourkela Pros Excellent hostel facilities wherein students are allotted double occupancy rooms in the first year and single occupancy rooms from the second year. A massive campus with a variety of sports facilities like cricket grounds, football grounds, Table tennis facilities, Basketball court, Lawn Tennis Court, Badminton Courts, Volleyball Courts, Swimming Pool, Gym, etc The labs are functional 24/7 for MTech students with high-speed internet facilities. Students are allotted individual PC to study and do their research work. The project work assigned to MTech students is largely research-oriented. M.Tech students have no restrictions regarding timings in hostels and departments. Cons MTech students get no summer or winter vacations due to heavy workloads. The attendance policy is strict and Bio-metric attendance is taken twice a day. Sparing the weekends and academic holidays, BIT Mesra MTech students are allowed to take only 15 leaves in 1 year.  Students have to prepare for 4 presentations, grand viva, project viva, and thesis submissions in the second year.

Ques. How is the placement package for M.Tech students from IISC, Bangalore?

● Top Answer By Mohit Gupta on 12 Feb 24

Ans. IISc Bangalore is famous for its research-oriented environment. Earlier it focused only on academic research. But in recent years, it has also started giving attention to industry placements.  Most of the reputed companies that visit IITs and BITs, also come to IISc for placements. All the IISc students end up with good packages, irrespective of their course/branch. The median CTC for IISc students was 28 LPA during 2023 placements. The placement process of IISc starts before the IITs, which is a great advantage for its students.  The MTech placements are good enough at IISc. But its grading system is very tough. You’ll have to work hard to maintain a good GPA over there. With a top GPA, you can expect at least 10 LPA as your placement package at IISc. This is applicable for all branches- CSA, SERC, DESE, ECE and EE.Read more

Ques. What are the placement opportunities in IIT Bombay's geoinformatics and natural resources engineering (GNR) department?

● Top Answer By Naman Gupta on 17 Mar 23

Ans. There are innumerable placement opportunities in IIT Bombay’s Geoinformatics and Natural Resources Engineering (GNR) department. Here are the important points that you must keep in mind: The placement stats for Geoinformatics and Natural Resources Engineering (GNR) at IIT Bombay are excellent, so don't worry about it if you are dedicated. The curriculum for Geoinformatics at IIT Bombay is better than other colleges in India, and the courses offered are relevant to add value to your job applications and for research and learning purposes.

The median and average salary packages for GNR graduates are INR 13 LPA and INR 17.9 LPA, respectively, and many top companies recruit from this department. To excel in placements, it's important to focus on your projects, coding skills, and resume.

Data structures are essential for software profiles, so make sure you are thorough with them. Electrical/electronics students can also prepare for core engineering roles with elective courses, but it's challenging to combine a hardware profile with your specialization. Image processing, computer vision, deep learning, and IoT-related fields are good options for those with electrical/electronics backgrounds.Read more

Ques. What is the difference between M.Tech (CSE) and M.Tech (AI) at IISc Bangalore?

● Top Answer By Gaurav Shaha on 14 Jul 23

Ans. There are many points of difference between IISc MTech CSE and MTech AI. Some of them have been listed below M.Tech CSE is the flagship M.Tech program from CSA whereas the M.Tech AI program is a new program that has been recently introduced by the EECS division. There is a huge difference in the curriculum of both programs. Although both programs require 64 credits, the breakdown is different. For MTech CSE the department core requires a minimum of 24 credits comprising at least 8 credits each from Pool A, Pool B, and Pool C There is a project too. The remaining credits are for electives. The M.Tech AI course on the other hand has 19 credits from pool A subjects, 12 credits from pool B subjects, and 12 credits from electives. Additionally, there is a 21-credit project where one can work on interdisciplinary cutting-edge problems on AI. M.Tech CSE admissions are done on the basis of GATE CS scores while the cut-off for M.Tech AI is decided by the applications from CS, EE, and ECE disciplines. It's natural for a CSE B.Tech student who isn't certain of specializing in theory, systems, or AI, to go for an M.Tech (CSE). The curriculum is flexible and you can even choose electives or work on AI projects. But if you are certain o your inclination towards AI then M.Tech (AI) is an excellent choice.Read more

Ques. Is IIIT Lucknow a good option for doing an M.Tech or not?

● Top Answer By Vipul Singh on 18 Mar 21

Ans. The M.Tech program in Computer Science (CS) at IIIT Lucknow is worth considering if you cannot get into other similar institutions such as IIIT Hyderabad, IIIT Bangalore, IIIT Allahabad, NIT Warangal, NIT Trichy, and NIT Karnataka. Though the M.Tech program started only in 2019, companies such as Google, Microsoft, Directi, LinkedIn, Codenation, etc. visit the campus for placements of B.Tech students. So if you are skilled enough, it does not really matter if you are a B.Tech or M.Tech student. The placement records of B.Tech graduates suggest that they are comparable to NIT Calicut, NIT Rourkela, and IIIT Allahabad graduates.  In fact, looking at the NIRF data of colleges such as IIIT Allahabad, it is clear that M.Tech students are more in demand in the industry due to lack of quality students along with their added research experience in the field. The curriculum of the course is also very well designed, offering specializations in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. These are the most demanding subjects in the industry currently and if you study well enough, securing a job should not be difficult. As this is a new course, you will not get the alumni advantage, the first batch is yet to pass-out, you could still connect with your B.Tech alumni as well as alumni from IIIT Allahabad (both the colleges were on the same campus until very recently).  Alternatively, you could also hang out with your B.Tech peers and learn from them as well, because they have a very well-laid-out course structure along with a very competitive culture in coding.  You should also consider studying with the PhDs as the knowledge and in-depth research they conduct in areas such as Machine learning will eventually help you to get a competitive advantage. So all in all, IIIT Lucknow is a very good option for doing an M.Tech which will sharpen your skills and prepare you for the journey ahead.Read more
