Rishabh33155, The quality of the course varies from college to college as it depends upon a lot of constraints. Talking about IIIT Allahabad, here M.tech in Robotics is quite a decent branch as the course structure, faculty, labs and facilities are pretty good. Though the first batch of the course hasn't sit for the placements yet but since their placements will also happen along with the B.tech students only, so you may assume that it'll be decent as well. So, overall, this course is a good one to opt for.
