Ques. Which college is better for an M.Tech in electronics and communication, IIT Bhubaneswar or IIIT Bangalore?

● Top Answer By Deepak Singh on 02 Jul 24

Ans. I would suggest opting for MTech from IIT Bhubaneswar in electronics and communication is a better choice than IIT Bangalore. IIT Bhubaneswar is known for its excellent curriculums, highly qualified and experienced faculties, and extensive research facilities. IIT Bhubaneswar offers two years of full-time programs for MTech. The course fee for the first year is INR 51390 . The cutoff for GATE in 2021 was 500 . IIT Bhubaneswar offers excellent placement opportunities for students with an average of 89% placement and the average package offered is INR 12.25 LPA .

Ques. How is the placements at MNNIT Allahabad for M.Tech in Communication Systems?

● Top Answer By Shibu Ahuja on 30 Nov 23

Ans. First and foremost, best of luck for your M.Tech admissions. The M.Tech ECE placements are average at MNNIT Allahabad. The placements largely depend upon the expected number of recruitments from visiting companies for a particular year.  Companies like Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Idea Cellular visit the campus with limited job vacancies. Other companies that make M.Tech ECE recruitments from our college include Tejas Networks, Digicomm semiconductors, Eximius, etc. Apart from that, M.Tech ECE students get the opportunity to sit for some software companies as well.  Maintain 9+ CGPA (doing so is easy) and focus more on doing projects using tools like MATLAB, NS-2 and System Vue. By doing so, you’ll increase your chances of getting a good package during the placement season. Thus, the Communication Systems placements are quite decent at MNNIT, but everything boils down to your individual efforts. Read more

Ques. Which college is better for an MTech, VLSI, NIT Surathkal or IIIT Bangalore?

● Top Answer By Aditi Banerjee on 19 Oct 23

Ans. Based on my research, here is some relevant information to assist you- IIIT Bangalore offers much better infrastructure, research facilities, and placement opportunities as compared to NIT Surathkal. However, the fee structure at IIIT Bangalore is also on the higher side. Most of the top brands visit both these campuses for placements.  As of June 2023, the highest CTC for M.Tech ECE stood at 38 LPA, at IIIT Bangalore. The average CTC stood at 26.2 LPA, and the median CTC stood at 22.5 LPA.  Though both are top colleges, I would recommend you choose IIIT Bangalore for M.Tech ECE. Especially, if the fee is not an issue for you. Read more

Ques. Is IIT Dhanbad good for an M.Tech in the ECE department?

● Top Answer By Kathakali Dutta on 12 Oct 23

Ans. The two deciding factors in this case are the studies and placements. IIT Dhanbad offers M.Tech ECE in VLSI, RF and Microwave Engineering, Communications, and Photonics. RF and Microwave Engineering is a good but difficult option.  The faculty for VLSI and Communications is good. However, the Photonics faculty is not good at all. 2-3 subjects and labs are common for all ECE students. However, the curriculum for RF and Microwave is entirely different from the other three. The placement scenario for ECE isn’t good. Very few students are placed from the department, that too in non-core jobs. Those who are well-versed in programming get easily placed in IT firms.  Core companies like Texas, Intel, Amdocs, etc. visit the campus for recruitment. However, they recruit very few students (sometimes none) from the department. Some students do secure internships at firms like Intel. But for final placements, they have to undergo screening once again. The placements are nil in RF. But some universities visit the campus seeking Assistant Professors. They offer good starting packages.  If you get VLSI at NIT Surathkal/Trichy/Warangal, choose that over IIT Dhanbad. The placement for VLSI is very good at these colleges. As for IIT Dhanbad, it offers a very decent M.Tech ECE. The main advantage in this case is the ‘IIT’ tag.Read more

Ques. How is MNIT Jaipur for an M.Tech in the ECE branch and specialization ECE? Are there any pros and cons??

● Top Answer By Shubhangi kailas on 10 Oct 23

Ans. MNIT Jaipur ECE branch is highly regarded for its good quality education and research opportunities. MNIT Jaipur offers four specializations under the ECE branch namely: VLSI Design Embedded System Wireless and Optical Communication (WOC) Electronics and Communication All the above branches are equally good in terms of curriculum and job opportunities so your preference and inclination that should determine the right one for you. All the branches are good in themselves so I would suggest going for your interest. This branch is also a decent choice if you want to prepare for competitive exams as the workload is less and there is a lot of free time.  Here are a few pros and cons of the institute that will help you further decide: Pros : An environment conducive to both academics and extracurricular activities.  It’s the best option if you are willing to prepare for competitive exam  An excellent college for presenting papers so its Ph.D. program is highly valuable. The professors are highly approachable and experienced. MNIT Jaipur has a well-stocked library even better than some IITs. Cons : The placement scenario isn't on par with IITs yet. Moreover, most companies prefer BTech students to MTech students so you have to be among the toppers to get a decent package. The lab facilities are poor so the level of research conducted is also average. The institute follows the Biometric attendance system Ultimately, makes a wise decision after weighing the pros and cons.Read more

Ques. Which is best to pursue an MTech in ECE: IIT Bombay or IISC Bangalore?

● Top Answer By Advait Joshi on 14 Jul 23

Ans. I have a friend who is pursuing M.tech in Electronic systems engineering at IISc and a cousin who is pursuing M.tech at IITB too. So, I seem to be in the best position to compare IIT Bombay and IISc Bangalore.  Academic environment : IISc has a rich research culture and you will find both faculty and students actively involved in dynamic research projects. A total of 42 departments offer rigorous courses that challenge the researcher within you. IISc also provides excellent opportunities to pursue any interdisciplinary field like microbiology, neuroscience, nanoscience, astronomy, genetics, etc. IIT Bombay on the other hand has a laid-back culture and curriculum that is more placement-oriented. Only passionate students are motivated enough to involve in research activities. Placement : IIT Bombay has diverse companies visiting for placements while IISc usually has only core companies. Moreover, the students applying for placements are at IIT Bombay than IISc because IISc students prefer higher studies or research. So we can say that IIT Bombay has a more active placement cell than IISc. Extra-Curriculars : IIT Bombay is known for its vibrant campus life and huge events that are organized to give the students a break from academics. IISc is a bit lacking in this aspect as its sole focus is on in-depth research. However, it does have all basic modes of refreshments like Hockey, Football, Archery, Swimming, and cultural societies for Drama, Music, Photography, and Literary Higher Studies: Although both IIT Bombay and IISc Bangalore have excellent prospects and opportunities for higher studies, it no brainer that IISc Bangalore will encourage you more for higher studies, and a Ph.D. from IISc is an excellent choice. Ultimately, the final decision depends on what your prospects are and what you expect from your college life. If your main goal is to pursue full-scale research then IISc is the best place for you but if you also want to experience a great campus life and get placed then IIT Bombay will serve you better.Read more
