Will IIT Tirupati be a good option for an M.Tech in CSE or should I go for IIT spot rounds?
Congrats on getting an IIT for your M.Tech CSE.
As for IIT Tirupati, even though it started its M.Tech intake only a few years ago, it offers decent placements for M.Tech CSE. During 2022, the M.Tech CSE branch of IIT Tirupati recorded an average package of 16 LPA. Moreover, all 8 registered students were successfully placed from the campus. IIT Tirupati carries the prestigious ‘IIT tag’ which will be beneficial for your placement. But most importantly, your skillset will get you placed.
If your rank is not that good and you aren’t sure about IIT Tirupati, you can try for IIT Dhanbad, BHU or Guwahati in the spot rounds. You can even try for admission into a good NIT.
Should I choose IIT Tirupati mechanical or BITS Hyderabad ECE/EEE? At present, I am getting EEE at BITS, Hyderabad but hoping to get ECE in further literations according to previous cutoff scores.
In the present scenario, EEE is a better choice as compared to Mechanical. Moreover, BITS Hyderabad is better than IIT Tirupati in various aspects.
The average package for B.Tech Mechanical at IIT Tirupati is 12.30 LPA (for 2023 placements, as of now). The average package for B.Tech EEE at BITS Hyderabad goes higher than that. Moreover, some companies may offer less packages to IIT Tirupati graduates in comparison to BITS graduates, for the same role.
BITS Hyderabad has a better campus in comparison to IIT Tirupati. The college culture and life is richer at BITS Hyderabad, and even its coding culture is better. You can check the worldwide GSoC college-wise selections. Hyderabad city has ample career opportunities, much more than Tirupati. The startup and entrepreneurial culture of BITS Hyderabad is top notch.
The students of BITS Hyderabad and Goa get the BITS Pilani tag on their degrees, without any mention of their actual campuses. On the other hand, the ‘IIT tag’ holds significance only for the students of the 7 old IITs. BITS campuses follow 0% attendance requirement policy and MIT pedagogy, while IIT Tirupati follows a strict attendance criteria and IITR pedagogy).
Based on these factors, and many others, I would suggest you to opt for BITS Hyderabad ECE/EEE over a core branch in any of the 2nd or 3rd gen IITs.
Will I get the "IIT TAG" if I join IIT Tirupati aur any new IITs?
Upon joining any IIT, you’ll be termed as an IIT.This would essentially mean getting the IIT tag.
The IIT tag is not a material thing, it is not an ID card. It just means that you’ll become a part of one of the IITs. Most of the clubs and societies at IITs, especially the new ones, are student driven. So the responsibility of building and maintaining the campus culture falls entirely on the shoulders of IITians. But this experience is very beautiful and enriching.
The faculty and student communities at IITs are very helpful. The students help one another in every matter. The IIT tag wouldn’t get you placed in a company, for this you’ll have to develop your skill set.
IIT Tirupati will provide you with a lifelong experience, and you’ll forever be a part of the institution, even upon graduating from there.
Is it possible to get into IIT Tirupati just by the GATE qualifying marks?
Yes, it may be possible. Here are the reasons why-

- It is not well known currently, especially in North India.
- It releases its applications quite early.
- Its MS and Phd. batches started only a few years ago, so those with better scores will prefer NITs over IIT Tirupati.
- The cutoff for MS is also low in IIT Madras because very few students are interested in pursuing the course.
Ultimately, the number of applicants and the interview round will decide your fate.

I got a PhD in IIT Tirupati. Is it worth it?
This answer is based on my experience of the current market. A Phd. from a top branded institute is good, but you’ll have to market yourself.
The employers search for candidates who have clear goals. They will try to figure out why you choose a certain subject and college and your past achievements, among other things.
Try to have a look at the placement figures of IIT Tirupati for Phd., and consult the faculty members in this regard.
Brand name has its own value, but you must have a good grasp on your subject to clear interviews. This applies to any branch or college student.
