How should I prepare for MS Mechanical test at IIT Madras?
The written test for MS Mechanical has 3 major topics to choose from: Design; Thermal; and Manufacturing.
The section you chose has to be necessarily the same for both written and interview. There are a total of 12 questions in the written test - 10 questions from chosen section and 2 questions from Maths.
Every question carries equal marks (2 marks). Usually, 8 questions are numerical based while the rest 4 are theoretical. Numerical questions were based on engineering topics like SOM, Tom, and Mechanics while theoretical questions were highly conceptual. One has to answer around 8-9 questions to get shortlisted for the interview
Once the shortlisted candidates' list is released, you are required to go for document verification. You will be informed of your interview date as well. You might be asked to bring a copy of your first-year project along with you and will be asked questions related to it.
Once summoned, you will be asked to select 3 different projects out of 3 different specializations. (Thermal/design/manufacturing) for the MS course. You will be asked basic questions from the topic you have prepared beforehand and sometimes additional mathematics questions are also asked.
Overall, the interview is not as difficult as it seems and enough preparation will get you through.
How is an M.Tech cryogenic engineering interview at IIT Kharagpur?
My friend received a call in Cryogenic on the basis of her GATE score in the Instrumentation exam. The entire interview lasted for 12 minutes. The panelists initially cross-checked the GATE score with her and then began the interview.
They asked her where she hailed from and then posed a number of technical questions like
- What motivated you to do research in Cryogenic?
- What is the use of Instrumentation in Cryogenic technologies?
- How are acoustic impedances compensated in industrial-type measurements?
- What is the importance of the Gauge factor in low-temperature measurements?
- What fuels are used for Oxidation in engines?
- What was your final year project?
Based on her experience, the maximum questions were based on her research work only so you need to prepare well in the same.
What is the salary range for an MTech graduate in mechanical engineering from IIT Bombay?
The salary of an MTech graduate in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Bombay varies from branch to branch.
- Mechanical Designers get more salary ranging from 5 to 12 lakh than others some even get around 20 LPA.
- Thermal Engineering students get slightly lower packages than design students
- Manufacturing Engineering students get salaries of around 4 Lakhs to 8 Lakhs
MTech students are usually hired by core companies that gain less profit than Software Companies and hence end up with lower packages than BTech students. Moreover, companies are aware that BTech students are all-rounders and thus prefer them to MTech students. However, the promotion of MTech students is faster than that of BTech students.
