After doing some research online, I would say that all the courses at ISI Kolkata are amazing if you know which field you have to choose. Everything depends on your choice of the field as every field is distinct from one another.
Now, I would mention that for M.Tech CS & QROR, these are already well-established Programs and need no introduction.
QROR:
CS:
Crypto:
I hope this helps you in clearing how all the three courses are distinct from each other. Each has its different criteria and comfort.
One of my friends completed his M.Tech in CSE from IIIT Kanpur back in 2019. Here are the placement highlights from his year.
The placements of the M.Tech students were at par with B.Tech and the dual degree students. There are very few companies that did not open their process for M.Tech students. But most of them are open.
A CSE M.Tech student got the highest package of INR 65 lakhs per annum. Mostly you will get a package in the region of INR 35 – 44 lakhs per annum. The minimum package hovered around INR 20 lakhs per annum. Some of the top companies visiting the campus for recruitment include Google, Microsoft, Qualcomm, SAP Labs, Samsung, Codenation, etc.
The packages offered to the students of NIT Trichy who are pursuing M.Tech ME according to what branches they are in are as follows:
Finally, most of the students in the civil branch are not seen in high regard for me. The placement percentage is from 50 to 70, unfortunately.
MNNIT Allahabad placements for MTech students are average. In 2021, the placement average for MTech branches was 25.06%.
Here are the highlights of MNNIT Allahabad placements 2021 for MTech.
Particulars | Placement Statistics |
Average CTC | INR 11.49 LPA |
Highest CTC | INR 30.96 LPA |
No of eligible students | 387 |
No of students placed | 98 |
Almost all the software MNCs like Amazon, Walmart, Qualcomm, etc. allow MTech CSE students to sit for placements. For branches like Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical, the core placement opportunities are limited.
Mass recruiters like TCS, Infosys, etc. allow all M.Tech branches for their recruitment process.
At NIT Trichy, the Mtech in Electrical branch is in high demand. NIT Trichy is well known for its placements. Being one of the best NITs, NIT Trichy has vast industry connections. When you study at NIT Trichy, you will realise how the curriculum is in touch with the industry requirements. You will be trained to be the best in your industry. And this is what attracts the top recruiters to NIT Trichy. The total fee of this course at NIT Trichy comes to around INR 3.32 Lakhs. The total percentage of the batch that was placed in 2023 was around 97%. This is because most of the students opt out of placements to pursue higher education or become entrepreneurs. The median salary was around INR 9.50 Lakhs.
I can only talk about the CS/IT department of BIT Mesra.
The M.Tech curriculum is pretty good, but teaching quality is lacking. The department faculty seems uninterested in teaching. This may be due to lack of resources and a poor administration, which annoys them as much as it does the students. Almost zero importance is given to coding for PG students. The college seriously lacks a research culture, but if you are adamant on pursuing research, you may find good guidance nonetheless.
The location of BIT Mesra is unfavorable for placements. Despite this, the department performs really well during placement season. Big shot firms like Microsoft and Goldman Sachs recruit M.Tech students from the department. The highest package for M.Techs is around 40 LPA. Getting placed is totally your responsibility. The college’s work is simply to invite top companies for campus placements, which in this case, it does.
As far as the CS/IT department of BIT Mesra is concerned, it offers decent academics and good placements. Moreover, it's not necessary that things are any better at other institutions.
One of my friends graduated from JNTUH in Transportation Engineering. Here is his review of the M.Tech courses offered at JNTUH.
According to my friend, it’s better to keep JNTUH as your second preference. Choose Osmania University, if you have an option.
NIT Jalandhar placements are good for M.Tech. According to the recent placement highlights, the average CTC offered for M.Tech branches is around INR 6 LPA. The highest CTC offered goes up to INR 10 LPA. Comparably CSE has a better placement record. Adobe, Oracle, OYO, Intel, L&T, etc. are among the major recruiters that take part in the placement drive.
Completing an M. Tech. from the National Institute of Technology (NIT) in Trichy can have a significant impact on your life, both personally and professionally. Here are some ways in which your life may change after completing an M. Tech. from NIT Trichy:
In summary, completing an M. Tech. from NIT Trichy can have a significant impact on your life, both professionally and personally. It can enhance your knowledge and skills, provide better career prospects, offer networking opportunities, contribute to your personal growth, and open up opportunities for further education.
IITs offer better placements for MTech in Computer Science. ISI Kolkata offers fewer core Computer Science job profiles. Most opportunities offered at the institute are for M.Stat and MSQE students. But if you want a career as a Data Scientist, it will be a better choice. ISI Kolkata placements are the best in the country for analytics. However, the recruiting companies usually prefer M.Stat/MSQE students over M.Tech.
According to the recent placement highlights M.Tech CS students of ISI usually receive a median CTC of around INR 18.6 LPA.
In terms of research too, join ISI Kolkata, if you want to work on something related to analytics or big data, etc. If you want a traditional career path in CS, then IITs will be better.
