How is IIIT Allahabad for an M.Tech?
I did my M.Tech in Microelectronics from IIIT Allahabad. Our college has top infrastructure, hostels, internet facilities, fests, etc. But I would like to enlighten you about the lab facilities at IIITA.
IIITA has one of the best labs for fabrication. It is equipped with all the basic machines. The Phd. students and lab staff are very helpful, and will provide you all the necessary guidance. ALD (Atomic Layer Deposition) is installed in the lab.
In IIITA, you’ll operate the lab machines by yourself. This includes washing used funnels, cleaning the oxidation chamber, and cleaning the sputtering machine after finishing your tasks. Mandatory lab timings are from 9am to 5 pm, but you can access the labs at any time.
The professor in charge of the fabrication lab, Dr. B.R. Singh has 40+ years of experience in fabrication. Other than fabrication, all the softwares for Analog and Digital Design are available. The same are headed over by different faculty members. The field of NanoElectronics is headed by Dr. Sitangshu Bhattacharya.
If you are interested in M.Tech Microelectronics, I can assure you that IIIT Allahabad is the right place for you.
Is PEC Chandigarh a good college for an M.Tech in ECE? How are the placements for an M.Tech in ECE?
PEC Chandigarh is a very good engineering college but somehow it lacks a reputation in the industry and this college is unable to produce any skilled engineers for a long time.
- Colleges like DAIICT/LNMIIT are less popular colleges than PEC Chandigarh but it has much more recognition and reputation in the industry which attracts many companies to visit the college for campus placements.
- An electronics engineer is the one who can make use of their command over the low-level computer programming languages and make the computers do whatever they want them to do.
- There is also a high demand for skilled electronics engineers in the industry but sadly no major electronic engineering companies carry out campus placements at PEC Chandigarh.
- Most of the degree holders from such colleges remain unemployed or have to look for other opportunities through off-campus interviews.
Hence, it is not preferable to do M.Tech in ECE from PEC Chandigarh as it has a low reputation in this branch and as a result, you might have to struggle to look for decent jobs or even remain unemployed.

Yes, M.Tech students in the Data Science stream at IIT Guwahati are eligible to sit for companies coming for CSE during placements. Most companies have no criteria for selecting students from specific streams only. However, it is up to the individual companies to decide which students they want to interview and hire.
Every company that visits the campus for placements has fixed eligibility criteria such as 10th, 12th percentage, and then the specific branch they are looking for. For instance, Goldman Sachs prefers students of Civil Engineering. A student that fulfills all the necessary criteria set by the recruiting company can sit for the written exam and further process that happens in the subsequent round.
It has been observed that most companies are open for both CSE and Data Science Branch during the placement process.

Why students go for ies after mtech from iit Delhi?
Following the trend, many MTech from IIT Delhi students opt for IES after completing their post-graduation. The reasons why most students do so are listed below:
- Many branches for IIT Delhi MTech are laid back and require no sincere efforts. This attracts students who have other future goals and use IIT Delhi as a stepping stone
- The facilities are good and students are given accommodation and even paid a stipend, which is more than enough for a comfortable survival for a few years
- IIT Delhi has many coaching institutes in close proximity thus students sometimes pursue their ulterior motives by preparing for other higher education.
- A major reason for this rising trend is the fall in the GATE level, making it easy for average students to get admission to MTech. The industries should also give importance to R&D so that people with serious career goals can get good jobs.
However, this trend is not justified as such students are not only wasting the money of citizens but also stealing the seat of a genuine aspirant who has to forgo their seat.
How good is NIT Trichy for pursuing Mtech. Mechanical?

| Course Fee | 1.69 lakhs |

How is the placement for an MTech mathematics and computing at IIT Patna?
IIT Patna MTech placements recorded 100% placements for the Mathematics and Computing branch this year. The average package for MTech MNC at IIT Patna stood at INR 15 LPA. However, I feel one should look beyond placements while evaluating the worth and credibility of a program. It's good to consider the achievements of the students who have completed the program. That being said, IIT Patna MnC students' achievements have been listed below
- Many students of this branch got selected for DAAD IIT Master Sandwich Programme
- Some have made major contributions to research as well as in the Industrial area.
- A few get the chance to pursue higher studies from top Foreign and Indian Universities such as the University of Dallas, USA.
- Some even contribute to the government sector.
- The students of this branch have been securing the highest CPI among all branches of Mtech.
So, it’s best to look at the bigger picture and consider all aspects rather than just considering the placements for choosing a branch.
What should be the preference of an MTech in VLSI Design in NIT Trichy, NIT Surathkal and NIT Warangal?
All the 3 NITs namely NIT Trichy, Surathkal, and Warangal are considered to be among the top NITs and are highly regarded engineering colleges. Their rankings are also quite similar but in my opinion, the preference order should be
NIT Warangal>NIT Surathkal>NIT Trichy
The reason Trichy should be your last option is because it does not permit students to go for Internship which in turn results in no PPOs. Many students get PPOs and thus are free from the stress of sitting for placements. Also, internships give you a better experience of the real world. Here is a brief overview of these 3 colleges
