The MTech ESD is a newly launched program at IIIT Bangalore. Here are a few pros and cons that might help you understand the credibility of the program 

Pros

• IIIT Bangalore is located in the IT hub so there won’t be a dearth of opportunities related to hackathons, design conferences, and the stuff. 
• The professors have tried to make good connections with the industry. Some of the best professors are Prof. Subhajit Sen and Prof. Subir Roy
• The course structure is extremely flexible allowing you to take up any course of your choice.
• The students of Embedded Systems are assisted by their senior batch, from team Q-Alpha, regarding all aspects.
