The students who got admission through GATE, receive a monthly stipend of around 15k which compensates for the meager fees spent. You can spend the rest of the money on your expenses. Moreover, all the essential commodities are made available on campus that too at reasonable rates. So one can even say that you are studying free of cost with money from the tax-paying public.

How are placements in M.Tech for NIT Warangal?

CR
Chitra Roy Posted On : August 16th, 2023
M.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Warangal

NIT Warangal offers MTech in a number of core branches like CSE, ECE, M.E., and Civil which are further subcategorised A plethora of job opportunities are available for the CSE and ECE MTech students. However, very limited opportunities are available for core domains like Mechanical, Civil, etc.

 In 2023, NIT Warangal MTech recorded the highest package of INR 51.03 LPA and an average package of INR 30.43 LPA. The median and lowest packages stood at INR 33 LPA and INR 3.6 LPA respectively.

Why is M.S. better than M. Tech at IIT Madras?

TB
Tushar Banerjee Posted On : March 28th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras

There are many reasons why MS is a much more preferred program than MTech these days. 

Fees: The MTech fees at IIT Madras are more than that of MS thus making MS a much cheaper option.

Placement: MS has better placements than MTech at IIT Madras. 

Particulars 

MS

MTech

Highest CTC

INR 58.80 LPA

INR 46.08 LPA

Median CTC

INR 15 LPA

INR 13.02 LPA

Stipend: M.S. students receive an average of 1 lakh rupees as stipend whereas MTech students may not get stipend anymore.

International exposure: MS students get enough international exposure through international conferences which is not possible for MTech students.

Selection Procedure: The selection procedure for the MTech program just requires a good GATE score and thus the quality of students is not as good as MS. The selection process of the MS program requires a GATE score, written test heat, and even an interview. The selection criteria being difficult, filters only the best for the course.

Considering the fees, placements, and selection procedure we can safely conclude that MS is a much-preferred option over MTech today.

What would be the best option between VJTI (Bombay) CS & IIITM Gwalior IT + an MBA/MTech?

Supriya Sarkar Posted On : September 15th, 2020

VJTI Bombay is one of the oldest institutes in Mumbai. It offers a number of courses and has a legacy of highly placed and reputed alumni. Their course structure has undergone many transformations in recent years and they have also adopted the latest technology for IT and CS courses.

  • The B.Tech course at VJTI can be considered a well-reputed course as they receive hundreds of applications every year.
  • They are an autonomous college and allow students to take up interdisciplinary courses, irrespective of their graduation specialization.
  • VJTI allows students to take up more research and experience-based projects to add to their portfolio value and the overall student experience is motivating and challenging for students to achieve new heights in their careers.

The integrated course at IIITM Gwalior has two formats: B.Tech + MBA and B.Tech + M.Tech.

  • Students can choose their specialization of whether to do an MBA or M.Tech in their 3rd year.
  • Their course structure at IIITM Gwalior is famous among engineering colleges and their placement rates are very high.
  • IIITM has one of the best research faculties and integrated program students are mostly taken up by P.hD level professors.
  • Pursuing an integrated degree allows students to save one entire year of Master’s education which they can then use to increase their productivity in the job market or prepare for further competitive exams.
  • One potential drawback could be that an integrated program does not grant you a specific specialization. Students are only awarded an M.Tech degree. However, this factor does not affect placements and dual degree alumni get the same placement offers as mainstream master’s degree students do.
  • The student-faculty ratio in the dual degree program is also high which allows students to get personalized attention by the best research faculty on the campus.

Analyzing comparatively, VJTI has a century-old legacy to offer with hundreds of students either going for placements or mostly, further education. IIITM Gwalior is not so famous but does provide placement assurance and modern technological facilities. It completely depends on the student on what kind of career are they looking for and what kind of degree do they want to pursue.

How is M.Tech in computer science at IIIT-Bangalore?

AG
Akriti Gupta Posted On : October 10th, 2023
M.tech From IIIT Bangalore

I completed my M.Tech CSE from IIIT Bangalore a few years back. Based on my experience, here are some pros and cons of joining this course/college-

Pros

  1. IIIT Bangalore sees a very diverse crowd. Students from various ethnic and academic backgrounds join the college each year. While some leave their jobs to pursue an M.Tech, others join right after their B.Tech. Some are very research-oriented and plan for a Ph.D. in the future. 
  2. The students are very serious about academics. But they are also very supportive of each other.
  3. The seniors are very supportive and friendly. The college alumni network is very strong.
  4. The faculty for M.Tech CSE is very dedicated and helpful. 
  5. The campus is neat, and Bangalore is just great for tech enthusiasts.
  6. Almost everyone is placed with a decent paycheck by the end of the course. Many students receive PPOs.

Cons

  1. The campus is small, and the college isn’t very old.
  2. The fees are quite high.
  3. IIIT Bangalore ranks below top NITs and is comparatively less popular.
  4. The administration isn’t student-friendly.
  5. Final sem students are forced to stay in the hostel if they intern anywhere in Bangalore. This is inconvenient if one’s office is far off, considering Bangalore’s traffic.
  6. The hostel curfew timings aren’t very convenient. No one is allowed outside of the campus post 10 PM.

In spite of some cons, IIIT Bangalore is a great choice for an M.Tech CSE.

How was your experience at IIT Bombay during M.Tech?

SB
Sumit Bose Posted On : March 23rd, 2023
IIT Bombay (2019)

My friend stayed at IIT Bombay only for a month but her experience was so amazing she couldn’t stop praising the institute. Some core points from the overall experience are:

  • An orientation is conducted to introduce the basics of the MTech program for two days. Your seniors will interact with you and give you advice. A presentation related to the course curriculum will be played to deliver the necessary information.
  • The first semester is pretty hectic as students are not used to the rigor and life at IIT Bombay.
  • Students take courses worth 60 credits. Each subject carries 6 credits. During the first semester, students usually take 4 subjects with Software Lab being compulsory
  • You are allotted 2 weeks to make a choice of 4 subjects. During these 2 weeks, you can attend lectures on any subject, interact with students and decide your elective accordingly.
  • The institute offers some audit courses also wherein you have to just attend classes and not give exams. These are meant solely for learning.
  • Attendance is taken through biometric ID cards.
  • Classes usually start around 8: 30. The campus is so huge that most people rent bicycles or avail taxis that roam inside the campus.
  • The class experience varies from subject to subject. All students have a good idea about most subjects since they have come through GATE.
  • The faculty is really good apart from a few cases. Machine learning was taught by Preethi Jyothi, a P.hd from Ohio university. OS was taught by Mythili vutukuru, P.hd from MIT. Most of the teachers were cooperative and experienced.
  • The most hectic part of IIT Bombay life is the culture of regular assignments. One is expected to write around 1000 or more lines of code each week and should not be copied from anywhere. They have software for detecting plagiarism. Strict action is taken if caught for plagiarism.
  • Hostel facilities include double occupancy rooms with a decent LAN connection.
  • The mess food is average and most students start going to the canteen after a few days. 

Life at IIT Bombay is definitely filled with fun and thrill and you will experience a roller coaster of emotions throughout m
