Which M.Tech specialisation should you pick at PESU?
Specialisation
Computer Science and Engineering (CSE)
Closes at 2,276 on Karnataka PGCET in 2025. INR 9.50 Lakhs for two years without hostel.
Pick it if:
You want a software job in Bangalore: the Cloud Computing, Cybersecurity and Machine Intelligence tracks teach the skills software companies in the city hire for.
You can pay the higher fee: this specialisation costs INR 9.50 Lakhs for two years, INR 3 Lakhs more than Electronics.
Your Karnataka PGCET rank is 2,276 or better: that was the Computer Science closing rank in 2025, so a KEA seat is likely.
Skip it if:
You want a pay figure for this specialisation alone: the university reports one median pay for the whole M.Tech batch, not by specialisation.
Your PGCET rank is just past 2,276: Computer Science closed there in 2025, so keep Electronics or PESSAT as your second option.
Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE)
Closes at 2,394 on Karnataka PGCET in 2025. INR 6.50 Lakhs for two years without hostel.
Pick it if:
You want chip or hardware work: the VLSI Design track teaches chip design, and Intel and Samsung have chip design offices in Bangalore.
You want the lower fee: this specialisation costs INR 6.50 Lakhs for two years, INR 3 Lakhs less than Computer Science.
Your PGCET rank is between 2,277 and 2,394: Electronics closed at 2,394 in 2025, so it can still give you a KEA seat.
Skip it if:
You want only a software job: the tracks here are Signals and Systems, Communication Systems and VLSI Design, not software.
You want a pay figure for Electronics alone: the university reports one median pay for the whole M.Tech batch.
Counsellor's advice
If your PGCET rank is 2,276 or better, list Computer Science first and Electronics second. If it is past 2,394, write PESSAT or use a GATE score. Pick by the subject, because pay is reported only for the whole batch.
M.Tech Eligibility▾
Degree marks: 50% in all in a B.E. or B.Tech in a related branch, from a recognised university.
Exam score: A PESSAT rank, a valid GATE score or a Karnataka PGCET rank.
Same rule, both specialisations: Computer Science and Electronics use the same marks rule and the same exams.
Government quota seats: These need a Karnataka PGCET rank, and KEA allots them in its counselling rounds.
M.Tech Admission Process▾
Register online: Fill the form on the PES admissions portal. Registration for 2027 opened on 3 Sep 2026.
Write PESSAT or skip it: Book an online slot and write PESSAT. A valid GATE score or a PGCET rank lets you skip it.
Get your seat offer: The university offers seats by rank. KEA allots the PGCET seats in its own rounds.
List your specialisations: Put Computer Science and Electronics in the order you want them. That order decides your seat.
Pay and report: Pay the first-year fee to keep the seat, then report with your originals before classes start.

In short
RV College of Engineering is much harder to get into, with a Computer Science closing rank of 14, and it lists 13 specialisations. If your PGCET rank is that high, take it; otherwise PESU is the realistic choice.
In short
BMS College of Engineering closed Computer Science at 2,121 and ranks higher, with a much lower listed fee. If your PGCET rank clears 2,121, list BMS College of Engineering above PESU.
In short
M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology closed Computer Science at 2,314, close to PESU, with a much lower listed fee. If your rank sits between the two, list both and take the first offer.
In short
Dayananda Sagar University closed Computer Science at 3,480 and costs less, but it has no Collegedunia rank. If your PGCET rank misses PESU, keep it as your next option.
FAQs on PES University M.Tech
Straight answers to what students ask before they decide.
Is M.Tech at PESU worth the fee?▾
For most students who get placed, yes. The full fee is INR 9.50 Lakhs for Computer Science and INR 6.50 Lakhs for Electronics, and the Class of 2024 had a median pay of INR 9.5 LPA with 98% of the batch placed. At that pay you earn the Electronics fee back within your first year of work. Check the ROI tile in the fee block above before you decide.
Should I pick Computer Science or Electronics at PESU?▾
Pick the subject you want to work in, not the fee. Computer Science costs INR 3 Lakhs more and suits software work, while Electronics has the VLSI Design track for chip jobs. The university reports one median pay for the whole batch, so pay cannot decide it. Read the specialisation block above for who each one suits.
Should I take the PGCET seat or write PESSAT?▾
Take the PGCET seat if your rank clears the closing rank, because KEA fills those seats first. Computer Science closed at 2,276 and Electronics at 2,394 in 2025. If your rank is past 2,394, write PESSAT or use a GATE score. Use the rank checker above to see what your rank opens.
Will I get a job after M.Tech here?▾
Most students do. The university placed 118 of its 120 M.Tech graduates in the Class of 2024, which is 98% of the batch. The median pay was INR 9.5 LPA across both specialisations. Ask the placement cell which companies came for your specialisation last year before you pay the fee.
Who should skip M.Tech at PESU?▾
Skip it if the fee is hard for your family and a cheaper government quota seat is open to you elsewhere. The full fee here is INR 6.50 Lakhs to INR 9.50 Lakhs without hostel. Also skip it if you want pay figures for one specialisation, because the university reports one figure for the batch. Compare the other colleges in the block above first.
Should I take this seat if my PGCET rank is just above the closing rank?▾
Do not count on last year's number alone. Computer Science closed at 2,276 in 2025, and a rank just past it may miss this year. Keep Electronics as your second option, since it closed later at 2,394. Also book a PESSAT slot as a backup before the KEA rounds end.
Is a GATE score useful for M.Tech at PESU?▾
Yes. A valid GATE score lets you skip PESSAT, and the fee page lists one fee for PESU Merit and GATE students. Seats still go in merit order, so a good score helps. Write GATE 2027 in February if you also want other colleges, then apply here with your score.
Is the M.Tech good for higher studies or research?▾
It can be, if you plan for it. The Machine Intelligence, Cybersecurity and VLSI Design tracks give you project work in year 2. The university also offers teaching and research assistantships to some students. If you want a PhD later, ask the department which faculty guide projects in your area before you join.
How do I get admission to M.Tech at PESU?▾
Register on the PES admissions portal, which opened for 2027 on 3 Sep 2026. Then write PESSAT, or use a valid GATE score or a Karnataka PGCET rank. Take the seat offer, pay the first-year fee and report with your originals before classes start.
Is the fee the same for both specialisations?▾
No. Computer Science costs INR 9.50 Lakhs and Electronics costs INR 6.50 Lakhs for two years, without hostel. Both include a one-time administrative charge of INR 10,000. Tap your specialisation in the fee block above to see its total with hostel.
What scholarships can I get at PESU?▾
Merit awards come after your first-year results. The top 5% of students get a 50% tuition fee refund and the next 20% get 40%, but only for year 1 on a two-year course. Children of PES staff and alumni get a fee concession every year. Use the scholarship calculator above to see your amount.
Can I pay the fee in parts?▾
Ask the Admissions Office before you pay. The fee page lists the tuition fee per year, so you pay year 1 first and year 2 later. If you need an education loan, the EMI tile in the fee block above shows the monthly amount for your specialisation.
