Benefits Of Pursuing MTech

The requirement of engineers is always high not just in India but all around the world. The reason is because our industry is constantly working on the development and improvement of technologies and we want new ideas with new innovations all the time.

• BTech degree offers deep technical knowledge to a student to gain a strong grip on their respective subject and to be innovative for future technology development.
• Once a person become skilled in technical field then he can easily move into managerial role to become more skilled in different arenas for other opportunities.
• If a person is interested in research field then M.Tech is a good option.
• If you are working in a core industry you will get the preference for promotion.
• Tech improves your chances of getting placed in a good company.

Admission Process, Eligibility, And Entrance Examination

Eligibility Criteria

To pursue M.Tech, a person must hold the degree of B.Tech and they should have qualified GATE with a recognized score.

Students who have completed the five year degree programme and received a degree in M.sc ( Masters in Science) are also eligible to pursue the M.Tech degree programme.

Entrance Examination

If a student is planning to pursue M.Tech in some of the top colleges in India then he or she has to qualify GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in    Engineering) Examination.

The examination occurs around the month of February. The student can get admission as per their rank in GATE Examination.
