Basically, M.Tech in process control and instrumentation is considered a multi-disciplinary course. According to some of my friends studying at NIT Trichy, a student gets the privilege to study varied subjects headed by different faculties like ICE and chemical departments. 

• Earlier the degree of the course was provided by the chemical department but now it has been shifted to ICE. 
• Usually, it has been seen that this branch seems a bit difficult to students as they need to study different subjects. 
• The difficulty arises when chemical students need to study electrical branches or vice-versa. 
• Coming to the placements, if you have a desire to get a decent job after the two years of your program, then NIT is the best place. 
• Starting from the second semester the placement committee develops certain skills that can help you immensely during the final placements. 

 According to the recent placement report, the following data can be tabulated as given below:

Lastly, we can conclude that if you are aspiring to pursue M.Tech in process control and instrumentation, then NIT Trichy is the best place where you can grow along with your holistic development, and get an opportunity to be placed in one of the most prestigious companies.

IIT’s are the best engineering institutes of the country and IIT Bhubaneshwar, being in the Top 20, is a great choice for M.Tech after graduation.

It offers a two-year full-time M.Tech course in mechanical engineering. An individual can take admission via the GATE score. The cut-off for MTech in mechanical engineering went around 540 in the year 2019. The fees for the course are 4.62 lakhs divided into 2.34 Lakhs and 2.28 Lakhs. Candidates must have a minimum of 60% or a 6.5 CGPA on a scale of 10 in B. tech/B.E. with a valid GATE score. (50% marks for SC / ST)

There were 68% placements for MTech students in 2019. The highest package stands at 39 LPA comparing to 30 LPA of industry standards. The average package at IIT BBS stands at 11.1 LPA in comparison to the industry average of 7 LPA which clearly shows that IIT BBS is performing very well among other colleges.

The infrastructure is well-developed with a high-speed Wi-Fi available in the academic block. Classrooms are Centralized AC and the Labs are well equipped with the latest technology equipment. Faculty is very knowledgeable, qualified, and uses practical methods to help understand topics.

In India, very few institutes offer M.Tech in Transportation Engineering. This course is somewhat similar to Automobile Engineering but not quite the same and pursuing it from a reputed institute like IIT Bhubaneswar offers a lot of opportunities. Students with a civil engineering degree can opt for the MTech Transportation Engineering program. The eligibility criteria for applying into the program is a BTech degree with an aggregate of 60% in a similar field. Students are also required to clear the GATE cutoff for Transport Engineering for applying. The course fee for M.Tech Transport Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar is 2.34 lakh/year.

The course curriculum for M.Tech in Transportation Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar involves planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation of transportation facilities. Transportation engineering also concerns the driver-vehicle interface and user interface of road signs, signals, and markings. The program is a good choice if you wish to join the public service. Before pursuing the M.Tech, doing an internship with any transportation company or civil engineering firm will provide the experience needed in planning and designing transportation projects, preparing estimates, and evaluating traffic patterns.

According to the placement highlights of IIT Bhubaneswar, 68% of students from the M.tech courses were placed in 2019. A total of 89 companies visited IIT Bhubaneswar for recruitment in 2019 and the average salary package was up to 11 lakhs per annum. Companies like Tata Motors, L&T Ltd., visited the campus for the placement drive.

MTech in Transportation might not be a popular subject but it can land you in some jobs of Civil Engineering and Automobile Engineering. An MTech degree will help you to gain further knowledge about the subject if you, later on, want to pursue a career in Teaching or Research. In the 2019 placement drive, more than 89 companies have visited IIT Bhubaneswar for placements. The average salary package offered to an MTech graduate was 11 lakhs per annum.

Construction Technology and Management is a closely related field to Civil Engineering. After completing MTech you can further get into research and development about the subject. Also, students from NIT Surathkal have received an average salary package of 7 lakhs per annum by recruiting companies like Alliance International, G. Gheewala, ABC consultants, Shella Consultants, Delta recruitment, R.K. International, MM Enterprises, International Manpower resources, Randstad India, Dynamic Group, Hector & Streak Consulting Pvt. Ltd., etc. for Real Estate, Infrastructure, Projects, and oil and gas sectors.

Both subjects are closely related to the Civil Engineering department, you can choose by your college preference, subject preference, ranks, etc. IIT Bhubaneswar would be a better choice due to its better placements and popularity among the professionals.

For undergraduates, ECE is one of the new branches in IIT Bhubaneswar. The first batch commenced in 2016 and will be graduating in 2020. But M.tech in Electronics and Communication has been present in IIT Bhubaneswar for many years. The School currently offers M.Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering specializations with an intake student strength of 18. The program is of 2 years where the second year is fully dedicated for research purposes only. It focuses on providing students a state-of-the-art insight into major areas of Communication Engineering, Signal Processing, and other related latest areas of research interest. IIT Bhubaneswar signed MoU with many universities for various purposes like research and student exchange. The institute also collaborates with foreign universities such as the University of Warwick, University of Southampton, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, University of Western Ontario, University of New York, University of North Dakota USA, and McGill University. Which gives the students of this IIT excellent internship and research opportunity.

The past placement reports show that this institute has witnessed around 60% of M.Tech placement. Companies like Adobe, Amazon, Accenture, Affine Analytics, HCL, HPCL, IOCL, ISRO, Ittiam, Infosys, KIIT, Go-Jek, Goldman Sachs, and many others visited the campus for recruitment. The average domestic CTC offered in 2019 was INR 11.44 LPA. Whereas the highest domestic CTC went up to as much as 39 Lakhs per annum. PSU’s like ISRO, IOCL, NCCBM also participated in the placement to recruit students.

Even though IIT Bhubaneswar is a new IIT, it offers a decent M.Tech program in ECE and has a good placement record. So, whether you should join M.Tech ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar or not is up to you.

Question papers from previous years suggest the M.Tech admission test at IIT Bhubaneswar in civil engineering follows the same syllabus as GATE. In the written examination, there are mostly conceptual questions from core subjects as well as questions from mathematics and aptitude.

So, it would be wise to prepare ahead of time by solving all the previous year’s question papers and also study the basics of all the subjects side by side. But as it is IIT, there is no boundary of the questions. So, cover your basics thoroughly.

Results of the admission test are declared within 1 hour of the exam. If you are selected, you need to get through document verification and an interview to get enrolled. Mostly, interviews are purely technical and questions are asked to test the basics concepts. The interview takes around 15 mins maximum and at least 3 Interviewers will be present in the interview board.
