hello...



M.Tech is a 2 year Post Graduation level course which is having good number of job opportunities for the candidates after completion of this course.

Completion of B.Tech course is the minimum eligibility criteria to join M.Tech course in any of the stream.

No direct admission will be given to the candidate for M.Tech course.

One has to attempt the Entrance Exam and have to get through it in order to get admission for M.Tech course.

The Entrance Exam that the candidate has to crack is GATE Exam.

GATE stands for Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering. This exam is being conducted by GATE committee which consists of Professionals from Indian Institute of Science and 7 IIMs (Indian Institute of Management).

There is no percentage of marks required for the candidates in B.Tech course to appear for this exam.

There is no age limit required for the candidates to be eligible for this exam. One can take this exam at any age.

GATE score card is valid for a period of 2 years.

If you have taken GATE Exam in 2 consecutive years, you can use any of the GATE score to get admission for M.Tech course.

Even the candidates who are pursuing final year of B.Tech course can also appear for this Exam.

As you are in the 1st year of B.Tech course, I suggest you to take this exam in 3rd year of your B.Tech itself.

Start preparation for this exam from this year only.

Better to take coaching for this exam from a reputed coaching institute.

Have good preparation for this exam and crack it.

Wish you all the best.


After completing the Graduation in Technology – B.Tech, the common question on the lips of most of the students is - whether to do M.Tech or MBA. What really depends is, in which field one wants to go and where one wants to see his/her career. If you want to grow with the technical knowledge, you should go for Masters Degree in Technology or M.Tech and if you want to see yourself in the management side, then you should opt MBA- Masters of Business administration. Some of the graduate students after their B-tech plan to go for the jobs and some wants to continue with their education where they need to decide MBA or M-Tech. And answer of this question, whether to go for M.Tech or MBA is really depends on few factors

What institute they are pursuing and from where they want to go for their M.Tech or Higher Education.
What exactly they feel and know about the Job prospects after their Masters in Business Administration.
What are your future plans and what you want to become or do in long term?
How and where your selected education would help you to achieve your pre-defined targets.

These are really some factors on what you should start thinking from your final year of graduation – B.Tech. And after deciding on this you should be confident of your decision and the future for what you are opting the respective course. What really helps you work hard for the same and you will surely grow happy with that. If one is more interested in engineering side and want to work with the same trade line he is working from last 4 year and want to make his career with engineering projects in the same trade, then without any confusion or question he/she should go for M.Tech or Masters of Technology in the respective field which will really help one to get better designation/post or rank in the same industry in which he/she devoted his 6 or 7 years and he will be the Master of his/her work. If or else one is more interested in working in the management aspect or has his or her interest to manage some of the companies rather than doing the engineering projects, than the student should go for the MBA degree which helps the students and get them enable them to work at the management front where they can manage the resources and projects for the benefits of their business.

So the next thing is how you can get admission in M-Tech or MBA, For M-Tech you need to clear the GATE exam and to get admission in MBA is only through cracking the CAT.Where approximately more than 400,000 students who take these respective exams – CAT or GATE according to their interest, and only the top 1 or 2 % students are able to clear the cutoff in all sections and are selected to take part in next level of Group discussions at each IIMs and IIT’s.. And after that the number of students who passed in GD is led to the interview And from these only about 1000-2000 students are selected to the IIMs and the same number for IIT which are top most colleges available in India. And Bachers from IIT and Masters from IIM is a dream for every student who want to come in this line.

What the truth we feel about these both Masters Degree – Master in Technical Education and Masters in Business Administration is, If you want to earn money and want to live fast – you should opt Masters in Business Administration and if you want to earn respect and live peacefully you should go for M.Tech or Masters in Technical Education.

good luck.....!!!!!
