hi...any idea abt placements for pg students in the electrical dept at iits?
i heard microelectronics and vlsi guys are placed well....wat abt control and power students?

[arun_kumar]

dude :) if u r cming just for placements then u r out.cme learn then its automatically fetches u a job.due to recession vlsi is presently down and the placements are good only for communication systems presently @ iitm .Dont much worry abt placements over here .

[arun_kumar]

@bhaskar there is nothing seperate like microelectronics and vlsi .both are one and the same

According to me all IITs are same.And regarding IISc, students have research mind (chances of becoming scientist) instead of getting job immediately after 2 years of Mtech and enjoying life.However IISC and IITB makes no difference to me!!!

Good, I think IITs are same...

Hello all... :D
I would like to know which institutes offer good MS programmes in computer science, specifically Computer Architecture, Networking and Embedded Systems. Who are the eminent professors in these fields.

Could you guys give me an idea of what rank I need to get an interview call for these programmes and what the interviews demand?

Also what do you think about the MTech course offered by CEDT at IISc Bangalore..

Thanks in advance

I am an Electronics & Instrumentation student. I will be giving GATE in IN paper this year (2011).
I would like to know which are the best IITs for studying M.Tech/M.S. in Embedded Systems??

What about CEDT at IISc?

Thanks n cheers :)

While discussions over IIT and IISc is going on let me chime in with a question. (I am new to the forum so this is my first hi)

I have recently started preparing for GATE and my sole motivation is to get into IISc (specifically the MS(Engg.) program offered by SERC and want to take the Computer Systems lab). First and foremost I want to work in computer architecture and I found this to be the best place to work. (Would like some feedback on the profs there). I know this is something too specific to set my sights on but there are several advantages to this which I can see from where I stand. Correct me if I am wrong

1. IISc and the MS program both are heavily research oriented. I don't really want huge package placement, a assistant professor's salary in IISc, IITs or NITs is more than enough, provided I have good research opportunities. And there is always this possibility that I get into a commercial research lab.

2. IISc is highly reputed and the opportunities are endless there, but so is with any IIT.

3. Cut off is significantly lower. The MS program has a cut off of approx 95-97 percentile for the last 3 years. Makes my life easier.

4. They do cutting edge research in comp arch (or so I know, citation and explanations needed)

If there is any other course matching this criteria (heavy research and comp arch being the most essential) would be glad to know.

BTW, I am in 3rd year B.Tech in a second tier college. Do you think if I am eligible as per marks (GATE and Degree aggregate) I would get a call. They don't have a bias towards NITs or BITS or such institutes right?

How is the solid mechanics and design course( under mtech mechanical) in iit kanpur?..

Please reply?
