What is the placement scenario for mtech in electrical at IIT Bhubaneswar?
The placement scenario for MTech Electrical at IIT Bhubaneswar is quite good. Out of the 13 students studying in 2018-20 batch, 12 got placed in reputed MNC’s like L&T Heavy Engineering, KEC International, and many other companies. The packages offered by MNCs range from 6 LPA to 9 LPA for core companies. There are two areas of specialization for MTech in the EE branch at IIT Bhuvaneswar- Power System Engineering (PSE) and Power Electronics and Drives (PED). Judging by the statistics, around 90% of students in M.Tech Electrical Engineering get placed in IIT Bhuvaneswar. It is quite imperative to note that the scenario for placement in Power System Engineering specialization is better than Power Electronics and Drives(PED). It is due to the fact that PED is a new branch in the institute which was started in 2019. So the first batch of students from PED is yet to experience any placement milieu. However, several companies like delta Electronics have shown their interests and are keen to visit the campus for placements. Although the Mtech program in EE at IIT Bhuvaneswar is among the new ones, yet it has attracted quite decent MNCs for placements.
Which is better: IIT Delhi Energy Studies or IIT Roorkee Systems and Control?
I am eligible to answer this question as my sister is a pass out from IIT Delhi, Energy Studies. According to her, the primary step is to determine what you want from your degree; is it a brand name you are after or do you want a better branch that offers quality MTech education?
As far as Energy Studies are concerned, the career prospects from campus are bleak with only 1-2 students getting placed from the entire branch. This branch is suited for those who are preparing for IES IAS. This is because the workload is considerably less in comparison to other branches sparing you enough time to prepare.
But if you are genuinely interested in pursuing a career in Energy Studies and subjects like renewable energy intrigue you, you can always go for off-campus opportunities which are in abundance.
As far as Control System Engineering is concerned, you can find more job opportunities in the field for energy engineers than for a control system engineer.
For either branch, the option of teaching as a job opportunity is always open and can be considered.
What's the placement scenario for M.Tech EE guys in IIT Roorkee?
Honestly speaking, the placement scenario for MTech is not very good. Except for CSE most students face issues during placements and end up becoming teachers in universities. The rare packages that are offered to the EE students at IIT Roorkee are also very small around INR 6 LPA.
However, there are a few top MNCs like Google, Oracle, Practo, Intel, InMobi, etc. that open job profiles for everyone in general, and instead of considering your branch or program, they look for the skills and capabilities of the individuals.
One needs to invest extra time and effort to secure packages around INR 25 LPA. Most IT companies offer such packages and not many are aware of this and give in to low packages. You need to prepare well for the interview beforehand. Here are a few ways you can ace your interview and grab a good package and role.
- Right from the beginning, start learning at least one programming language.
- Master either Java or C++ and also understand the basics of other programming languages.
- Become proficient in Data Structures and Algorithms.
- Mastering Python is another way to clear the interview owing to the high demand of AI.
- Practice the learned programming language on the Hackerrank website. Some companies ask for your rank on this website to evaluate your programming skills.
Now the question arises of how to inculcate these skills. Well, you need to befriend a good MTech CSE student who will guide you and provide you with the necessary resources. One can also purchase online courses from Udemy.
It’s recommended that you finish learning these skills by the end of the first year only. Anyone who belongs to a branch apart from CSE needs to follow the above steps to ensure good packages and roles.
How is the placement of an MTech (EE) at IIT Kharagpur?
No IIT has department-specific placements and usually open to all placements are done wherein companies allow students from different branches to sit for placements. There are only a handful of core companies that discriminate between students of their branch and other branches not letting them sit for placements.
So MTech placements usually mean competing with a number of students from different branches for top companies like GE, Bosch, or Texas Instruments. Most visiting companies are software companies that allow students from most branches to participate.
