How is M.Tech in Atmospheric-Oceanic Science and Technology at IIT Delhi?
To be brutally honest, IIT Delhi M.Tech program of the Atmospheric-Oceanic Science and Technology branch has a very poor placement scenario. Core job opportunities are scarce and hardly any companies visit with core job offers.
Most students from this branch prefer choosing an elective from the branch that matches their preferences and try to use that knowledge during their placements. Sometimes companies don’t even shortlist this department for placements but you can approach them with the proof that you have studied the required subjects as electives although not as a core subject.
What are the future prospects of ocean engineering at IIT Madras, assuming I want a lucrative position somewhere?
As there is no exact definition of a lucrative position, I will answer this question objectively. Firstly, there is no comparison between MTech and MBA as the latter has excellent job prospects while MTech does not.
As far as the Ocean Engineering department of IIT Madras is concerned, you definitely will have great career prospects after graduating from this department. The faculty are experts in their respective fields and because of the small size of the department, you get to interact much better with them.
But if we talk about placements, core companies offering roles are very limited, almost zero. This is a very specific branch and has limited opportunities to offer. This situation is similar in most MTech branches other than CSE and Electrical.
If you are genuinely enthusiastic about this branch, let me tell you this department has excellent research opportunities that will satisfy you. Anyone who prioritizes research over placements will find this branch to be pretty good. We can say that the prospects vary from person to person depending on an individual's commitment to the discipline.

IIIT Allahabad is a good choice for M.Tech in CSE. You can also go for NIT Bhopal which has a good placement record. But lacks a good teaching-learning process. So, It is suggested you go for IIIT Allahabad, as it will be the best option for you.
What is the current placement scenario for an MTech in the VLSI branch at NIT Surathkal and what is the minimum package?
Despite the pandemic, NIT Surathkal placements for M.Tech VLSI have been decent over the last few years. According to the recent placement statistics, the median CTC for VLSI is INR 9.3 LPA. Flipkart, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, Oracle, and Ford Motors are the top recruiters for the branch.
IIIT Sonepat: Which one should I choose, NIT Kurukshetra or NIT Bhopal or IIIT Allahabad for an M.Tech in CSE?
I will never recommend you to choose NIT Kurukshetra because the administration is very disappointing and the entire system is in dilapidated condition. The CSE branch specifically is losing its charm. The official records claim some very good professors but the reality is most of them aren’t interested in teaching.
The result is declared after 4 months and the students were given backs by a margin of 1/4 of a mark. The duration of exams is long, giving no time for holidays. The Institute does not encourage any kind of educational tours or summer training. Research work is not promoted in any form. The only reason NIT Kurukshetra is still here is because of the hard work of students who get good packages.
What is the future scope available if I pursue M.E. Software Systems in BITS, Pilani Full Time?
If you get to pursue M.E. Software Systems in BITS Pilani that itself is a huge opportunity. You will get to pursue one of the most in-demand degrees from an elite college. It will help you in your future career prospects. However, what you will want to do after pursuing this degree, totally depends on your area of interest. If you can maintain a good CGPA, then you can expect to get placed in the top companies that visit our college for placements. You will get to work at top companies which will give you exposure in your field. If you want to go for higher studies then also M.E. in Software Systems is a good degree which will help you develop a good foundation in the subject. You can opt for PhD programs abroad or from the top institutes in India. BITS Pilani itself has a well-structured curriculum for doctorate programs.
Is an M.Tech in IIT Patna a better option or not?
I have a friend who completed his MTech in Civil and Infrastructure from IIT Patna and he shared his experience of the same with me.
Course structure: The curriculum was poorly structured and failed to provide specialized knowledge in any area. The subjects included Environmental Engineering, Railway Engineering, Structural dynamics, construction planning and management, reliability, economics, etc. The mixture of subjects made it a jack of all trades but a master of none.
Faculties: The faculty pool here is miserable and most of them are old people enjoying their life with government funds and facilities. They rarely take classes and when they do their pedagogy is pathetic and even the most difficult topics like Reliability, FEM, dynamics, etc. were poorly taught.
Research: Comparing the research culture here and that of other IITs you will realize how pathetic the scenario is here. The reason was the lack of faculties’ research capabilities. Neither were they involved in any research work nor did they promote it to the students.
I really hope actions are taken against the falling standards of IIT Patna and the IIT standards are restored.

I got an offer for an MTech at IIT Gandhinagar and for a direct Ph.D at IIT Patna. Which one shall I take?
I think IIT Gandhinagar MTech is a safer option to go with than a direct Ph.D. from IIT Patna. IIT Gandhinagar provides better learning experiences and opportunities to explore than IIT Patna. IIT Gandhinagar CSE faculty is exceptionally good and will help you if you are willing to do Ph.D. after MTech.
Unlike PhD and MTech guarantees a degree within 2 years and so if you end up changing your mind later you will not have wasted 5-6 years. You can decide whether to do Ph.D. or not while pursuing your MTech and play safe.
The overall academic experience and campus life are better at IIT Gandhinagar than at IIT Patna. Be it the food, facilities, faculty, alumni, or placements, IIT Gandhinagar has it all.
