Hi Harsha,
Canada and Australia are the top countries for Mining studies and job opportunities. UNSW, Curtin, UOW, University of Adelaide, UBC, McGill University, Queen's University are some of the good names in this regard.

Hi Sarfaraz, you can pursue your MS after you clear your B.Tech with good grades and with a valid GRE score. Additionally you must take TOEFL. Much cannot be said about job opportunities now with the new government setting in, know that competition have been always tight. No program nor university will guarantee a job, finding an employer to sponsor your H1B will also be tough. As a E&C student you will be eligible for STEM OTP for 3 years so you can rigorously job hunt with the help of the university's career support office and work.

Don't feel bad due to your low GPA. Take the things head on. First score good in GRE and TOEFL iBT. Let these score speak about your competence, then focus on writing good SOP and getting suitable LOR. I am sure if you represent your profile in a complete manner, you will be able to get into many good universities.

Yes, it is perfectly fine to apply for MS program in USA after completing your integrated program of 6 years. Beside this, you also need to clear GRE and TOEFL IBT.

M.Tech from legacy IITs is superior to MS in normal engineering USA or UK university if your target job market is in India.

MS in project management includes implementation of new projects, things to be implemented including estimated cost, implementation of new technologies, etc. whereas MS in petroleum engineering would give you a regular job. Therefore, if possible, prefer MS in project management.

Hi Varun,
There is no perfect definition for what could be the best course. It will depend on the candidate. Whereas you may like robotics I may prefer bio-mechanics. So, look for a subject you will most likely enjoy. Biomechanics is a very trending subject but opportunities in India for this field will be less. Automobiles, mechatronics and robotics are the most popular and ever in demand. Many students also opt for manufacturing engineering and transportation design. Look for more subjects on university websites, you will find details as to which is what and you can decide accordingly.

Hi, Master's degree programme at Switzerland may range from CHF 3000 to CHF 6000 per semester depending on the university and course. You need to check the university websites for more details.
