In my opinion, IISc Bangalore is a way better option than IIT Bombay mainly because it offers core engineering in computer science e.g. Linux Kernel Programming. It is true computer engineering. It helps you understand the science of Computer Engineering and develop a strong grasp of it.
Any science be it Computer Science or any other is solely based on concepts and implementation of these concepts is quite difficult. An extensive knowledge of Computer Science doesn’t necessarily ensure great Computer engineering skills. But it’s true vice versa. So by going for IISC, one is surely choosing the path of excellence through the very foundation of Computer Science.
IIT Bombay is a brand that is known nationwide whereas IISc is known globally mainly because of its focus on core and complex concepts in Computer Science. Moreover the quality and quality of papers submitted by IISc is much more than IIT Bombay and this already reflects how successful it is going to become in the future.
IEM Kolkatais known for its great placements. The Computer Science and Engineering department is one of the oldest departments in the Institute of Engineering and Management. Every year around 150 students in B.Tech (CSE) and 18 students in M.Tech (CSE) get admitted to the department. The college attracts very brilliant students because of the department reputation as well as the excellent placement records. IEM Kolkata B.Tech (C.S.E) provides around 95% Placements in 2020, with the highest salary packages 22 lacks, and lowest packages with 4 lakhs.
Overall the IEM gives good average placement in CSE. IEM placed an average of 97% of students in the last three years, with good salary packages.
I completed my B.Tech ECE. Due to Covid-19, I got a direct interview call from IIT Gandhinagar for M.Tech ECE. I got interviewed on Google Meet.
Out of the four choices given to me, I opted for microelectronics and VLSI as my first preference. 20 minutes prior to the interview, I received a call from the technical supervisor asking me to be prepared. There were 3 panelists for my interview and all of them belonged to the Electrical Engineering Department of IIT Gandhinagar.
The interview started with a basic introduction and I was asked for my favorite subjects. After this, I was asked questions to assess my knowledge of the field. I am listing down the questions which the panel asked me-
The IIT Gandhinagar staff is quite helpful and supportive. I received 3 calls every 15 minutes to alert me before the interview. My interview went well and I got selected for the M.Tech program.
Placement statistics vary by branch, college reputation, individual performance, and market conditions.
Placement insights:
Check official placement reports on college websites. Focus on building technical skills, maintaining good CGPA, and securing quality internships.
My friend completed her MTech in ECE recently from IIT BHU and shared her interview experience. She along with other candidates was made to give a written examination based on which they got shortlisted for the interview. The interview was conducted by a strong panel of 4 faculties. Soon she was summoned for an interview.
The questions the panelists asked her were
They asked her a few more general questions and concluded the interview which lasted for 15-20 mins. She realized that having proficiency in her favorite subject helped her. She advised her juniors to always go through the institution's official website and faculties before the interview. In case you recognize any of the faculties at the interview, you can impress them with the knowledge of their project you have. Overall, the interviewers asked more technical than personal questions.
Placements for IIT Bombay MTech Material Science Engineering are decent and a plethora of opportunities are offered to M.Tech students after MTech in Material Science
Placements for M.Tech Material Science Engineering at IIT Bombay are pretty good and a number of opportunities are available

The highest salary bagged by NIT Warangal MTech students was from the CS&E department followed by the CS & Information Security branch.
M.Tech Mechanical is a preferred stream but its success is directly proportional to the level of placements offered by colleges in comparison to the fees or investment made. The number of students enrolled is less compared to B.Tech making it a less lucrative option for campus placements.
The detailed analysis is as follows.
Eligibility:
The basic criterion stands at graduation with a minimum score of 50%.
The common examination accepted is GATE.
Fees:
NIT Surathkal has a fee structure of Rs. 1.85 Lakhs
ISM Dhanbad offers the course is Rs. 1.05 Lakhs.
ISM has fewer fees as compared to NIT Surathkal.
Placement Details:
The prime-most details to be focused upon are the average and highest placement scenario of both the colleges in general.
|
College |
Placement |
|
NIT Surathkal |
Average-Rs.11.90 LPA, Highest-Rs. 18.75 LPA |
|
ISM Dhanbad |
Highest-Rs. 12.50 LPA |
79% placements in NIT Surathkal M.Tech as opposed to 50% in ISM.
Major Recruiters are Teradata, Cisco, Dell EMC, Riverbed Technology, and Huawei Technologies.
ISM M.Tech is not preferable for mechanical, it’s a sure shot option in case of CSE or Mineral engineering.
The only reason to prefer ISM is the IIT factor attached to it which makes it more appealing in terms of faculty and culture.
The choice can be made both on the basis of placements and college ranking with respect to the course offered. The packages offered in the Mechanical stream in NIT Surathkal are quite good as compared to those in ISM Dhanbad. NIT Surathkal also holds a reputation in the institutional list with respect to its 7th position in the list of NIT.
One of my friends completed his MTech in Biomedical Engineering from IIT Bombay and gave an insight into the placement scenario of the same course. Out of 16 students who attended placements from this course, 14 students were placed. Another friend told me that 11 out of 17 in his batch were placed under decent roles. The others opted out of placements.
A number of Biomedical companies like GE, Cerner, L&T etc visit the campus and offer decent roles. Many non core companies also allow Biomedical students to sit for their placements and sometimes offer good roles too.
A number of analytics and data science jobs are also offered. Top core roles offered here are Associate Analyst, Lab Analyst,etc. Many students even opt for PhD after MTech.
