If you are going to take admission for M.Tech in any of these colleges it will be worth the choice. All are quite established and are doing great in curriculum and placements.
But there is always the best among the rest and hence, I would like to suggest you opt for NIT Durgapur. It beats both IIIT Allahabad and IIITM Gwalior. Also, regarding the two IIITs, IIIT Allahabad certainly does better than IIITM Gwalior in competitive programming and placements
- On the other hand, NIT Durgapur holds strong ties with IIT Kharagpur.
- The professors and students both are collaborating on various projects from both institutes.

What are the placement statistics of M.Tech CSE at IIT Patna?
IIT Patna MTech CSE placements are a bit lower than BTech students as most companies prefer BTech students over MTech students thus limiting their job opportunities. Therefore, IIT Patna MTech should be considered only if you are into research and are willing to Ph.D. after MTec. IIT Patna has excellent faculties for ML and NLP and the IIT tag will be beneficial in pursuing PhD from a foreign university.
IIT Patna Mtech's most branches like Computer Science and Engineering, Mathematics, Computing, VLSI/Embedded Systems, and Mechanical Engineering secured 100% placement. IIT Patna MTech CSE average package stood at INR 21.94 LPA.
Ultimately I would recommend you to consider IIT Patna MTech as the last option after considering the top IITs, top NITs, BITS Pilani, and top IIITs especially if you are after placements.
What is the use of an MTech in CSE at IIIT Bangalore when we can get 11 LPA just by switching jobs?
I completed my M.Tech CSE from IIIT Bangalore some years ago. This makes me eligible to answer your query.
Here are some reasons why this degree is more beneficial for your career than simply switching jobs-
- As an M.Tech CSE graduate from IIITB, you’ll be offered much more than 11 LPA. You can expect to get around 15-16 LPA as your starting CTC.
- Top companies like Microsoft recruit from the IIITB campus.
- Companies like TCS have very low workloads, and the work is mostly brainless. This can make you lazy. An M.Tech course will help exercise your brain.
- It’s difficult to switch from service based companies to product-based MNCs. You may end up in a service based company or a product-based startup post-switching.
- M.Tech graduates from IIITB are much more likely to get into a product based MNC.
- The college tag will open more opportunities for you career-wise.
- You can access good off campus opportunities as Bangalore is the ideal place for tech professionals.
- At college, you’ll spend your time studying AI/ML, and developing your coding skills.
- You may not get to develop these abilities at your workplace. They may give you basic support projects, excel sheet work, etc. Then you’ll have to develop your coding skills post work hours.
Thus, I would recommend you consider an M.Tech CSE from IIITB instead of relying on a job switch.
If I have offer from both IIIT Bangalore and NIT Trichy for MTech CSE which will be a good option to choose?
If you have offers from all the mentioned institutes, then firstly I would like to congratulate you for achieving such a feat. Many students fail to get offers from any one of these institutes, and here you are sitting at the top of your game. Congratulations!
When it comes to choosing the best option among these three, I would suggest that you choose NIT Trichy. The reputation of NIT Trichy as one of the best NITs is by far one of the driving forces of students choosing this institution. The CSE department of NIT Trichy has a curriculum that has been developed to meet the industry needs of the students. You will get to learn multiple programming languages as well as be able to use them on multiple projects. You will be encouraged to develop new software. There are instances where students become entrepreneurs on the campus and pitch their projects and software to investors.
