How are the placements for an Mtech Electrical in Power System and Power Electronics at IIT Madras?
Generally, in the electrical branch, almost 80-90% of students get placed. The highest salary package offered is 1 CPA. The lowest salary package offered is 12 LPA. The top recruiting companies are Jane Street, Google, and Microsoft. Almost 60% of students got internships in P&G and Dr. Reddy Laboratory. The top roles offered are engineer in petroleum industries and analyst in pharmaceuticals.
However, Power Systems and Power Electronics branch has its own shortcomings.
- Although most companies of EE allow Power students to sit for placements, if they lack knowledge of ECE subjects of GATE, they cannot clear the written test
- You will have limited options unless you are proficient in VLSI. Interviewers may not consider you if you haven’t done VLSI courses
- Core companies of Power Electronics hardly visit the campus. Those that do visit, either require a high cutoff like 9 CGPA like Enphase Systems or offer a package lower than 8 LPA.
So what is the solution to getting better packages as a student of Power Systems and Power Electronics? Well, you have two options
- Either, do some VLSI courses offered at IIT Madras itself. This will get you a good package from top companies like Intel and AMD.
- Or become proficient in coding
These two ways can save you from getting a below-average package. It’s highly advisable to do some courses not related to power engineering to increase your chances of employment because most core companies offer packages lower than 10 LPA.
Is it worth joining IIT Jodhpur for MTech EE ? How are the placements?
Whether joining IIT Jodhpur is worth it or not depends on individual expectations and prospects. Like any other Institute, it does not guarantee placements in any company. I can only offer you an insight, the test depends on your perception of the same.
- The faculty of the Electrical Department of IIT Jodhpur is highly learned and experienced in their respective fields
- The electrical department has well-equipped laboratories and modern equipment and systems required for research work.
- The placement scenario is decent and the highest CTC ranges from 12-15 LPA. A few recruiters who visited in the past to recruit students were INTEL, Maruti Suzuki India Ltd, KEC International Ltd., and Vehicles Ltd. Most of the packages offered by these companies were below 10 LPA.
- IIT Jodhpur has recently shifted to a new campus so its infrastructure and campus facilities have improved.
Ultimately, it’s you who can drive whether joining IIT Jodhpur is worth it or not.
Which is better for an MTech in electrical engineering, NIT Trichy or IIT Guwahati?
The choice of the institute for pursuing an MTech in Electrical Engineering depends on what you want from your Masters.
- For those on the lookout for placements, NIT Trichy has a good placement scenario, especially for Electrical Engineering. They are even better than some well-known IITs in M.Tech, especially Power Systems.
- However, if you are willing to pursue a career in research after MTech (Ph.D.) then you will have to give great importance to the choice of the institute. An IIT is best suitable for prospective Ph.D. holders as they have global recognition too.
Ultimately, the better institute is a matter of preferences and career prospects.
How is the industrial power and automation for an M.Tech at NIT Calicut?
NIT Calicut Industrial Power and Automation branch is a perfect mix of Electrical Engineering and Instrumentation/Automation. It comprises important elements of both fields and is a great choice for students interested in the field.
- However, if your primary goal is to get placed , then you have come to the wrong place. Most companies visit NIT Calicut to recruit BTech students and they are given preference to MTech students. A few exceptional cases get placed in huge firms though.
- The faculty pool is very small and the most highly regarded professor of the branch is Dr Ashok S.
- The branch has excellent lab facilities and is therefore a great choice for research enthusiasts. The IPA labs are highly advanced labs with modern equipment. The labs have PLC, SCADA, DCS, VFD, BLDC setup, and DSP setups too.
Overall the IPA course at NIT Calicut is a great choice if you are interested in the field and want to pursue a career in research.
Which is better: IIT Delhi Energy Studies or IIT Roorkee Systems and Control?
Both IIT Delhi and IIT Roorkee are prestigious engineering institutions in India. Known for their excellence in academics and research.
However, the choice depends on you and your preference. According to me, IIT Roorkee is a better choice than IIT Delhi.
- IIT Roorkee is one of the oldest institutions in India with a rich heritage in strong engineering.
- IIT Roorkee System and Control Department offers excellent academic programs and research facilities along with highly experienced faculty members.
- The total course fee for two years of MTech in System and Control from IIT Roorkee is INR 71200 for two years.
- The average salary package offered to students is INR 18 LPA.
In between IIT BHU and IIT Bhubaneswar which one is best IIT for M-Tech in EE?

Considering all the points and knowing that Coimbatore is the original and the oldest campus of the two, the preference of the campuses should be Coimbatore.
How is IIT Ropar for an M.Tech in power engineering?
Some experience preferably an internship in the private sector can come in handy if you want to pursue M.Tech in Power engineering at IIT Ropar.
Before you make up your mind, research the challenges of power engineering, its strengths, and drawbacks, the scene of the program in our country, the opportunities that remain unused, etc.
Decide if you would like to address these problems on your own or with the team you will be making. There is still a gaping difference between demand and supply in our country. There are also problems in transmission, losses in transit; thefts that take place by unscrupulous elements.
Other than these, there are also generation gaps, technology or equipment that has become obsolete. You will need to address these problems when you will pursue the course and apply your knowledge in the real world.
