GATE

To secure admission to the M.Tech programme at DPG Institute of Technology and Management (DPGITM), Gurgaon, candidates are required to have a valid GATE score. While the institute does not publicly disclose specific GATE cutoff scores, meeting the minimum qualifying marks in the GATE examination is essential. In addition to the GATE score, applicants must have a Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Technology with a minimum aggregate of 50% (45% for reserved categories). For those without a GATE score, DPGITM may conduct its own entrance examination as an alternative pathway for admission.

Top NITs (Trichy, Warangal, Surathkal) – Unlikely. Lower-ranked NITs (e.g., NIT Meghalaya, NIT Arunachal) – Possible in spot rounds or for less preferred specializations. Branch shift may be an option later if you get admitted.
