How is an M.Tech cryogenic engineering interview at IIT Kharagpur?

My friend received a call in Cryogenic on the basis of her GATE score in the Instrumentation exam. The entire interview lasted for 12 minutes. The panelists initially cross-checked the GATE score with her and then began the interview.

They asked her where she hailed from and then posed a number of technical questions like

• What motivated you to do research in Cryogenic?
• What is the use of Instrumentation in Cryogenic technologies?
• How are acoustic impedances compensated in industrial-type measurements?
• What is the importance of the Gauge factor in low-temperature measurements?
• What fuels are used for Oxidation in engines?
• What was your final year project?

Based on her experience, the maximum questions were based on her research work only so you need to prepare well in the same.
