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.
