How is IIT Delhi for M.tech in Civil Engineering from placement point of view?

DS
Dipti Sinha Posted On : April 10th, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (2022)

Most Government, as well as Private companies, prefer BTech graduates to MTech or MS graduates. One needs an MTech degree only if one wants to enter academia or research. The reason they prefer a fresher is that they consider them flexible and thus sponsor them for higher study in their field of requirement.

M.Tech degree is not required to secure a good job and I will recommend you start preparing for GATE instead and target a PSU job. The written tests and interviews during the process of GATE Preparation will increase your chances of selection in the future.

There are 2 major ways to get admission in Building Technology and Construction Management at IIT Madras.

GATE: Under this, you are expected to score high in GATE, something around 99+. 

Sponsored Candidate: This is further divided into freshers and experienced candidates.

    • Freshers: A program by L&T called Build India Scholarship shortlists Civil and Electrical students based on their GATE scores. These candidates are required to have an excellent academic background and have to appear for an aptitude test and finally for an interview before getting selected. L&T has collaborated with IIT Madras, IIT Delhi, NIT Trichy, and NIT Surathkal. Around 60 freshers are selected from all over the country under this program.
  • Experienced: Experienced candidates are selected by programs under L&T, Brigade group, and URC. L&T selected 60 experienced candidates from their own companies who have 2 or more years. They need to go through regular screening of aptitude tests and interviews to get selected. The usual experience required is 2-3 years.

Curriculum: The curriculum is well structured with the right combination of Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineers and Architects. The peer group is extremely diverse and thus makes the learning process dynamic. The coursework has a practical approach with regular site visits and course projects. There are versatile subjects to choose from.

How is the M.Tech (civil branch) at NIT Patna if the ESE and GATE preparation is the primary concern?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 1st, 2023

One of my friends has completed his BTech from NIT Patna. I have an idea about the academic environment and placement opportunities at NIT Patna. 

  • MTech program has a relatively light workload giving you enough time for other things.
  • The academic opportunities are limited for MTech students but plenty for BTech students. 
  • Faculty comprises friendly and learned professors. However, you will have to resort to self-study at some point. 
  • The NIT tag helps you in the initial stages of your career. 

Overall, completing MTech from NIT Patna might offer excellent opportunities. The government of India also encouraged the researchers by its schemes directly from NITs. You can also opt for academia and become a teacher or start working in a PSU. The institute will provide you with enough time and opportunities for civil services or IES,

What is the average CTC obtained by a Mtech Civil engineer from IIT Roorkee? How much % of placements in MTech Civil?

SM
Soumyadeep Mahapata Posted On : April 15th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee

My knowledge is limited to MTech Civil Engineering placements from IIT Kanpur only. But I believe the placement scenario of IIT Kanpur and IIT Roorkee is pretty much the same.

The core Civil Engineering companies prefer structural engineers to transportation engineering and the competition is also high. For a structural engineer position, you might even have to compete with dual-degree students as companies generally prefer them for the structural engineering profile. Also, the number of structural engineers is higher than transportation engineers theory increasing the competition. 

Coming to placements, MTech civil engineers rarely land good packages. A few consulting companies like Spectrum offer a very low package of around INR 4-5 LPA and recruit you as a trainee for 6 months. Lnt also offers 36000 per month to engineering trainees for a period of 6 months.

The general distribution of MTech Civil engineers is as follows

  • 30% get placement
  • 20% opt for a Ph.D
  • 30% are employed within 6 months of course completion.
  • The rest 20% goes to ESE/PSU

The average package depends on a lot of factors like what career prospect you go for.

How are M.Tech placements for structural engineering in IIT Hyderabad?

RG
Ritika Gusain Posted On : May 16th, 2023

Placement for M-tech in institutes like IIT varies from batch to batch due to the lesser requirement of an M-tech candidate to do a particular work. The placements of structural engineering or that of any branch depend more on the placement division of the institute of that batch. 

The placements for structural engineering are decent with an average package of around INR 5 LPA. I deem it as one of the best institutes to study structural engineering in India considering the fact that its research work is on par with many old IITs. The institute renders an opportunity to learn and grow with the most genius minds in the country
