Remarks

After my B.Tech I applied for M.Tech (PE) and I got selected for the course. No quota for me as I belong to General Caste Admission Criteria: Requirements such as above 60% in B.Tech and at last an interview. Admission Process: Not much for an M.Tech guy, Went directly for classes only.

Course Curriculum Overview

Took this course to get into Oil & Gas Industry (Upstream). I was in a small batch of students upto 25 and only one batch for M.Tech (PE) and Faculty is Great. Faculty Members were mostly Retired, Engineers or PHD Scholars. Monthly assessments and Final Sem Exams only.

Class Size: 25Course Fees: INR 250000 per year

Placement Experience

0.5

Placements were given from the 3rd sem of my masters. Only one company visited for M.Tech (PE) guys, i.e, Global Data from which I had an offer of 4 LPA package but declined as It wasn't a core and moreover I was not planning to be an Analyst. 5 LPA was the highest given by Global Data. Only 25% got placed in Global Data as many declined the job offer. Just preparing for interviews to get O&G Industry as soon as possible as due to the pandemic there were no openings for freshers.

Fees and Financial Aid

Fees are pretty much costly and hiked every year, Financial Assistance is provided to the needed and I got no scholarship. I just had a monthly stipend of Rs 3000/-, Exclusively for M.Tech students and PHD Scholars.

Campus Life

Uddaan and many fests were conducted during my academic year. Books and journals were available in the liberary free of cost. Great Classrooms with facilities like a Punch card system for attendance, projectors, and other basic stuff. Great area for sports and extracurricular activites on the campus. SPE (Society of Petroleum Engineers) was the group I joined.

Hostel Facilities

Great room with all basic amenities like attached bathroom, geyser, water purifier, and cooler. Food is good with variety. I rented a PG so no registeration process and It cost me like 1 lpa. PG was located just 50 m away from the University.

Hostel Fee: INR 100000 per year

Glimpse of 125 year old Technical Institute of India

Remarks:

As my previous experience was in Bridge Engineering , so on the basis of that IIT ROORKEE is best among others ,as it offers a course named as Masters in Structural Engineering with diversification in Bridge Engineering , which makes to choose this Institute specifically over others.Admission took place though multiple doors :- First is through GATE Score without any GD or PI or both Second one is through Sponsored Category like of mine Third one is through Quality Improvement Programme (QIP) For more information on admission you may refer to IIT ROORKEE PG Admission latest Information Brochure.I think it is not a Bad aspect of institute , but Institute must do certain reforms in it's admission process as till now IITR took admission directly on the basis of GATE SCORE for M.Tech / MURP courses which , but I will suggest that in future IIT ROORKEE must took admission for the same programme through GATE Score as well as GD or PI or Both , result of which it increase the opportunities of many relatively lower GATE scores candidates to took dream of doing their Masters from reputed IIT ROORKEE For Dates Tentatively application started from the month of April every year Last date to submit the application - last of April Results announced through COAP portal ( you need to separately register yourself on COAP portal to participate in the counselling process of all IIT's) in multiple rounds along with some Additional round & spot round I don't search or see any forum or websites or blog while selecting this college because in my previous company I made many visits to IIT ROORKEE by which I came to know many more about it automatically .

My college experience

Remarks:

There are tons of extracurricular activities present here. From sports to arts, everything is here. There's nothing only for boys or girls, every event is equally arranged for active participation of all students. And I feel negativity about the study hrs which is almost 10 hrs.

Remarks:

The institute course structure and facilities they provide us is very great but since it is a training institute, we don't get the full freedom of the normal University, there are CISF (Centralised industrial security force) guarding the institute 24*7. So we have to follow proper instructions given by them.
