M.Tech Admissions - 2009- Guidelines/Suggestions

Production Engineering (PI)

ACE Academy Congratulates all its students who have got good ranks in the GATE –09.

NOTE: The following guidelines for M.Tech admissions have been prepared by us considering the information given by previous students based on their percentile & Rank .

NOTE: There is no reservation for PI candidates in IIT’s, they are treating PI candidates along with mechanical only i.e. wherever PI candidates are eligible, they are seeing the percentile/score of mechanical and PI candidates and whoever got high percentile/score for them they are giving seat. But the rank is immaterial.

The same thing is happening with some of the other colleges also. But in some colleges like PSG Coimbuttor, NIFFT Ranchi etc there is reservation for PI.

IIT’s : MADRAS & KHARAGPUR are offering direct admissions based on GATE score ( normally they ask you to give 8 to 10 preferences of specialisations.)

KANPUR, MUMBAI, ROORKEE, GAUHATI & IISc BANGALORE are giving admissions for some specialisation based on the GATE score directly and some specialisations based on GATE Score + TEST + INTERVIEW. So candidates are advised to opt for first preference carefully, appropriate to their GATE score ( last year admissions GATE SCORE and specialisations will be given in the brochure or website).

DELHI is giving admissions based on GATE Score + INTERVIEW. In general candidate are called for interview by considering their first preference so candidate are advised to opt for first preference carefully, appropriate to their GATE score ( last year admissions GATE SCORE and specialisations will be given in the brochure or website) .

FOR THE IIT’S AND IISc THE CANDIDATES HAVE TO APPLY IN THE FOLLOWING WAY: All candidates with 99 percentile and above can apply for M.Tech in manufacturing as first priorities. The second option is Industrial Engg. But in some colleges they allowing you for desin also , in such cases you are required to apply design as second preference.

All above 98 percentile candidates can apply for industrial, thermal and applied mechanics etc

Above 96&97 percentile candidates can apply to applied mechanics, composites, aerospace engg,

But 97&98 percentile candidates can apply for MS also for good specialization

All above 90 percentile candidates can apply for MS

In IIT MUMBAI the order of priorities for ASSISTANTSHIP may be given as follows.

1. teaching assistantship 2. Research assistantship

3. Teaching assistantship with project 4. Research assistantship with project

And Order of priorities are:

For above 99 percentile: manufacturing, design ( if they allow you) industrial engg, thermal engg

For above 98 percentile: thermal, Aerospace, energy systems, composites, corrosion engg

For above 97&96 percentile: energy systems engg, triobology, corrosion engg

But 97&98 candidates can apply for MS also for good specialization

All above 90 candidates can apply for MS

Order of priorities in IIT madras (in mechanical department now they will take only on three specializations wise, but after first semester based on your performance in first semester they will allot specializations)

1.&2. manufacturing sciences & Design sciences

3. industrial management ( Humanities department)

4. thermal sciences

5. composites

6. Aerospace engineering

7. Ocean engineering

8. Metallurgical sciences

9. any other specialization of your interest

But 97&98 percentile candidates can apply for MS also for good specialization

All above 90 percentile candidates can apply for MS

The same way for other IIT’s also you can apply.

M.S PROGRAMME: It is equivalent to M.Tech. Admissions are given twice in a year in (JUNE & NOVEMBER) all IIT’s have M.S programme, here the admission is based GATE score + interview + B.tech marks. Generally minimum period is two years but it depends on candidates hard work. If the guide is satisfied with the work then the guide will recommend for awarding MS, if not it may take more time. In general the average time period will be 2½ to 3 years. Candidates who have percentile above 90 with B.tech percentage above 70%. have chances to get this programme.

FOR MS in all IIT’s, THE CANDIDATES WILL BE CALLED FOR INTERVIEW BASED ON GATE SCORE + DEGREE MARKS ( GENERAL METHOD ), BUT SOME TIMES THEY MAY CALL BASED ON GATESCORE ITSELF.

NITIE ( Mumbai) : this is a very good institute in industrial Engg. Here the admissions are based on Gate score + Group discussion + interview.

Special attention for SC/ST students :

We strongly suggest you to apply for premier institutes like IIT’s irrespective of your percentiles. Luck may favour you.

Special attention for Girls:

Certain universities have girls reservation, eg. Andhra Pradesh. Hence even at lower percentiles compared to boys, girls have fair chances.

Special note for Second Class students:

If you see the rules & regulations of various premier Institutes, 1^st class in Engineering is the

pre-requisite. If you apply online, your application will be rejected. Hence we suggest you to apply manually with a request letter stating your present strengths substantiating with GATE Score and your desire to do M.Tech in the respective IIT. Request them to give you a chance so that you can prove yourself. Most of the professors would like to encourage the students who are seriously interested, inspite of the above –ve point, if the GATE score is good and the student has a burning desire to join the desired specialization in the desired IIT.They may consider your application with sympathy and may give you a chance after a

personnel Interview. some of our old students with second class in their graduation got admission on similar grounds. Be bold and be positive. Definitely, you can reach your goal.

Note:

Those who have got relatively low scores in the GATE are strongly advised to apply for more number of colleges (not less than 10) so that they can get admission in atleast one college in the desired specialization.
The students shall be in-touch with the daily English newspapers ( The Hindu, The Indian Express, The Times of India etc.) and Employment News for the M.Tech notifications by various colleges.
All the above guidelines are only suggestive / advisory. The candidates are requested to go through the information brochure of each college and take decision appropriately. Depending upon their interest.
The students may also contact their seniors/friends studying in various colleges

for their suggestions and latest information about the colleges.

WISH U ALL THE BEST
