M.Tech

Hi Jitesh,
There is a small correction you need here. You do not hire a supervisor, it is the other way round. They should accept you. However, for M.Eng courses, it is not necessary to contact a supervisor before submitting an application. Once you submit your application you will be placed under a supervisor depending on university requirements.

Graduate degrees (B.Tech) offered by IITs are of four years duration. M.Tech is of two years duration. Some of IITs also offers 5 years integrated B.Tech-M.Tech programs in few subjects.

Hi,
The main difference is the admission requirement. M.Eng is way too competitive than M.Sc. You have to be very strong in quantitative skills for M.Eng and the course is mainly practical application. M.Sc is more into theoretical approach. Similarly, job outcomes are also different. M.Sc will lead to research while M.Eng will most likely produce scientists and engineers.

Hi Shreyas, while both are reputed, Dalhousie is ranked higher by various ranking tables.
I hope it helped.

Yes, your friend can pursue his higher studies abroad. Help him decide where to study firstly and then he must check the admission requirements which are different with every university and also programs.

NIT Patna has two years PG degree course M.Tech Electrical Engineering with specializations such as Control Systems Engineering and Power Systems Engineering.

MS is a better option, since many universities offer MS in biotechnology. You can write GATE exam and if you pass it, you can pursue M.Tech from a decent college.

Hi,
Your CGPA is average as the top ranked would require more than 8.0. The admission will also depend on your LORs, SOP, research inclination, publication work, etc.
You can consider:
1. Ryerson University.
2. Dalhousie University.
3. Simon Fraser.

You can pursue MBA to get a decent package.
