How are the placements at NIT Warangal for an MTech in the VLSI branch?

CR
Chitra Roy Posted On : August 17th, 2023
M.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Warangal

NIT Warangal is one of the top NITs so the placements for every branch are great. 1st-year students receive internship offers from February. Placement opportunities are available in the second year also. It is better to get some practical exposure through internships rather than staying in college.

Many reputed VLSI companies visit the college for placements and internships like Intel, Nvidia, AMD, AMS, Xilinx, Analog Devices, Mediatek, cypress semiconductor, microchip etc

Here are the brief highlights of VLSI placements at NIT Warangal

Placement Percentage

69%

Number of students placed

18

Highest CTC

INR 37.5 LPA

Lowest CTC

INR 12.4 LPA

Median CTC

INR 18.5 LPA

Average CTC

INR 20.4 LPA

Overall, if you want to secure good packages, work hard in the first year and maintain good grades. Getting internship offers does not necessarily mean you will get laced. So dont give up on the hard work!

How good are the placements for M.tech in VLSI at VNIT Nagpur?

PK
Pallavi Kapoor Posted On : November 18th, 2023
Information Technology (IT) at VNIT Nagpur (2019)

I was an M.Tech VLSI student at VNIT Nagpur. I had a bitter experience regarding the academics and placements.

At VNIT, M.Tech students are under immense pressure to conduct research. The faculty pushes the students to pursue a Phd. On top of that, one doesn’t even get the necessary lab facilities from the college. The VLSI faculty is not supportive at all, and the entire experience is filled with torture. None of the course subjects are industry relevant.

VNIT wants its M.Techs to pursue research. This is why the campus does not receive any companies for M.Tech placements. Getting placed off campus is very difficult as companies prefer students from communication branches. Also, unlike communication students, the VLSI students aren’t permitted to go for internships. This further lessens the chances of getting a job offer.

It is especially difficult to get placed off campus, given that a single position has around 200 applicants. Moreover, the NIT tag does nothing to get oneself a job. This year, only 2 students from the entire VLSI batch got placed. The others received offers from service based companies for a package of 5–6 LPA, and with a 3 year bond, of 7–8 LPA.

Overall, the placement scenario for M.Tech VLSI is not good at all, maybe the poorest out of all NITs. I won’t recommend VNIT Nagpur for an M.Tech in VLSI.

How good is IIT Roorkee for an MTech in VLSI?

RS
Radhika Srivastava Posted On : April 12th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee

VLSI is an excellent branch for those opting for Master's in IIT Roorkee. Apart from CSE, VLSI is the only branch offering high packages to its MTech students.

Most students are offered internships at Intel which are most likely to get converted to PPO under excellent performance. Some of the companies that offer the highest packages are Intel (23 LPA), Qualcomm (25 LPA), Texas Instrument, Samsung Semiconductor, etc.

Most MTech Electrical students tend to go for VLSI because of the huge packages. VLSI jobs have excellent job locations such as Bangalore, Hyderabad, Delhi, etc 

Thus, VLSI has a great scope not just in IIT Roorkee but other newer and older IITs too.

How are placements for VLSI at MNIT Jaipur? How many of the students get placed?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : October 9th, 2023
Lived in Jaipur

The placements for VLSI at MNIT Jaipur aren’t very good, to be honest. As a whole, the college is great, offering top-notch education and placement opportunities. The college is known for its highly experienced professors, a vast amount of resources in the library, and a great research culture. All these factors combined make it a good choice for an MTech program. However, if you are only keen to get placed in the VLSI domain, you will have to reconsider your choices. In that case, the best options would be IITs or NITs. 

One of my friends was pursuing MTech in VLSI from MNIT Jaipur and told me that she got the opportunity to go to an internship program and finally landed a decent job in the VLSI industry thanks to the consistent guidance he received from his professor. 

So, it can be concluded that getting direct VLSI placements is challenging but with the right motivation and planning you might land a decent job.

What is the better college for an M.Tech VLSI, NITK Surathkal or IIT Guwahati?

NT
Nived Tripathi Posted On : May 3rd, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (IITG)

In my opinion, IIT Guwahati is a better option than NITK Surathkal. Here is why:

  • IIT Guwahati alumni network is stronger than NIT Surathkal.
  • The IIT tag proves to be helpful in attracting good companies irrespective of whichever branch you belong to. 
  • Another major nightlight of IIT Guwahati is the beautiful campus that is a treat to the eyes of a nature lover
  • The peer group will comprise the most talented geniuses in the country, unlike NIT.
  • Many major recruiters tend to visit IITs only.
  • A few companies like Qualcomm do not open R&d profiles in NITs but they do in older IITs.
  • The package size offered by some companies like CISCO varies in IITs and NITs.

All in all, IIT Guwahati is better than NIT Surathkal in many aspects.

studied at IIT Kgp

VLSI has become one of the most preferred branches of the ECE department. Its placements are similar across all the top IITs with the top recruiters being Intel, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Cadence, Synopsis, Analog Devices, TSMC, etc. 

However, the difference lies in the quality of professors and their respective expertise. A few IITs with their area of specialization are as follows

  • IIT Madras: Analog
  • IIT Bombay: Digital
  • IIT KGP: Analog and Digital
  • IIT Kanpur: SP. Comm

If placements are your only concern, I will suggest you go for IIT KGP which usually enjoys 100% placements with an average package of around INR 17 LPA.

What should be the preference of an MTech in VLSI Design in NIT Trichy, NIT Surathkal and NIT Warangal?

KS
Kalyan Shastri Posted On : September 15th, 2023
Lives in Warangal

All the 3 NITs namely NIT Trichy, Surathkal, and Warangal are considered to be among the top NITs and are highly regarded engineering colleges. Their rankings are also quite similar but in my opinion, the preference order should be 

NIT Warangal>NIT Surathkal>NIT Trichy

The reason Trichy should be your last option is because it does not permit students to go for Internship which in turn results in no PPOs. Many students get PPOs and thus are free from the stress of sitting for placements. Also, internships give you a better experience of the real world. Here is a brief overview of these 3 colleges
