● Top Answer By Advaith Bhaskar on 18 Mar 23

Ans. IIT Bombay Civil Engineering branch is well known for its programs like Master, Dual Degrees, and BTech. Candidates with good profiles have a wide range of opportunities. BTech students are preferred for Non-core jobs whereas MTech students are preferred for MTech students.  Some jobs offered to students belonging to the Civil Engineering branch at IIT Bombay are Structural Designer : Top companies like Dar Al, Walter P Moore, and Thornton Tomasetti offer this role. Around 1 to 4 students are hired for such roles by each company. The most important criteria are CPI and your proficiency in software. Site Engineer : These roles are offered by companies like SP group, and LnT Look. You are tested usually on the basics of civil engineering and your ability to give long-term commitment. Management Trainee : Many civil companies offer management profiles also. Students with extracurricular backgrounds with reasonable academics are usually preferred for such roles. Some companies from the Middle East also offer such profiles. Teaching : In the last few years many private universities hire Masters's students directly for Assistant Professor posts. They are required to start their Ph.D. in less than a year.  Other Sub branches: Companies for water resources, Geo-tech, and Surveying offer very few roles. A few companies such as Dar Al open these profiles too. Non-Core Companies : Companies in the fields of investments, analytics, Banking, etc either don't open for M.Tech students or are not short-listed for interview.  100% placement at IIT Bombay is just a myth and you have to work hard to secure a job.Read more

Ans. M.Tech students (boys) of IIT BHU are allotted Aryabhatta Hostel I (Block A&B) and II (Block C&D). It is a three story building that contains a large common room with TV, and a large dining hall. The hostel mess serves decent quality food.

But even then, there’s ample space for each occupant. Each block has a garden. The washrooms are cleaned every afternoon, and are equipped with handwash and geysers. The two hostel canteens have all the basic items (including the basic food items), and their timings are 1:30PM-3AM and 7AM-10PM.

Ans. M.Tech Civil placements at NIT Warangal are better than other NITs. Here is the placement scenario for various M.Tech Civil specializations at NIT Warangal- Transportation Engineering- NIT Warangal is one of the best in the country for Transportation. This specialization has a good placement record. Maximum students are placed in core jobs in MNCs while some are placed as teachers in private Engineering colleges. A few students from Transportation clear competitive exams and get a government job on their own. Structural Engineering has good placement figures and its workload is lesser than the other specializations. CTM is a newer branch but it has a good placement record. Water Resources, Environment, and Geotechnical Engineering have lower placement percentages. The package range is more or less uniform for all these branches. Geotechnical branch mostly gets teaching offers. Many students from these branches sit for government exams as well. A senior of mine from Remote Sensing & GIS did her internship at IIRS Dehradun and went on to get a doctorate from the Philipp University of Marburg, Germany. To give you a clearer picture, here are the 2023 placement records for M.Tech Civil at NIT Warangal- Course Placement Percentage Highest Package Average Package Water Resource Engineering 42.1% 10.35 LPA 6.4 LPA Environmental Engineering 51.72% 13 LPA 7.26 LPA Engineering Structures 89.6% 8.5 LPA 6.5 LPA Geo Tech Engineering 54.54% 10.35 LPA 6.6 LPA Transportation Engineering 81.81% 7 LPA 6.3 LPA Construction Technology & Management 96.4% 13 LPA 7.3 LPA Remote Sensing & GIS 38.46% 13 LPA 8.6 LPA Waste Management 35.71% 10.35 LPA 7.4 LPA As per the 2023 figures, the average salaries are almost similar for all these branches.

Ques. What is the scope after an M.Tech course in earthquake engineering at IIT Roorkee?

● Top Answer By Shruti Gupta on 14 Apr 23

Ans. M.Tech in Earthquake Engineering at IIT Roorkee would provide students with a strong understanding of the science and engineering of earthquakes and how to design structures to withstand them.  Some of the potential career opportunities include jobs in consulting firms, government agencies, construction companies, or research institutions, where you would use your knowledge of earthquake engineering to design and evaluate buildings and other structures for seismic safety. You can also pursue research or enter Academia.  The scope of M.Tech in earthquake engineering at IIT Roorkee depends on where you will be showcasing your learned knowledge and skills. Not many industries understand the skills gained through Earthquake Engineering. But the course delivers the finest concepts of structural behavior which eventually helps you to climb the ladder as a structural. You may find your skills go to waste as many people devalue and belittle this branch but trust me it has great scope in the future. The best part is that you can pursue both structural engineering and structural dynamics as a student of Earthquake engineering.Read more

Ques. How is IIT Delhi for M.tech in Civil Engineering from placement point of view?

● Top Answer By Dipti Sinha on 10 Apr 23

Ans. Most Government, as well as Private companies, prefer BTech graduates to MTech or MS graduates. One needs an MTech degree only if one wants to enter academia or research. The reason they prefer a fresher is that they consider them flexible and thus sponsor them for higher study in their field of requirement. M.Tech degree is not required to secure a good job and I will recommend you start preparing for GATE instead and target a PSU job. The written tests and interviews during the process of GATE Preparation will increase your chances of selection in the future.Read more

Ques. Which is better - doing M.Tech from IITs or going for NITIE Mumbai?

● Top Answer By Rishabh Khandelwal on 13 Aug 21

Ans. Having to know some people studying in both these colleges, I can say that they are equally good. You can opt for any one of them, their respective programs are also good. They are recognized as Centres of Excellence by MHRD, Govt of India. The choice mainly depends on the individual and their preferences. You should go for the one you are enthusiastic about. NITIE offers 3 courses, where the selection is through GATE scores. These include Post Graduate Diploma in Industrial Engineering, Project Management, and Manufacturing Management. These courses are a mixture of technical and business management. IITs offer M.Tech through GATE exam scores.  It involves core specialization and nothing about industrial management. So, the selection of the college and the course entirely depends on you. Go through them and then decide which will be a better option for your career.Read more
