MTech admissions
- 2-year MTech: Online application, typically open during mid-March to mid-April.
- 3-year MTech
- August admissions: online application typically open during mid-March to mid-April
- January admissions: online application typically open during November
Admission Process
Admission to the MoE sponsored MTech (TA) programme for candidates with a GATE score is via COAP.
All other admissions will involve a written test and/or interview

Exam and Interview:
- Linear algebra/matrix theory
- Probability theory, random variables and random processes
- Convex and non-convex optimization
- Real and complex analysis
- Exam & interview to test how well you can solve problems mathematically
- We expect clear understanding of fundamentals (NOT formula-based approach)
- We look for ability to improvise and willingness to learn
Engineering uses mathematical tools to solve real-world problems. Many problems in Communications, Signal Processing and Learning primarily rely on
Things to keep in mind:
Focus of Written Test
- Linear algebra
- Probability theory & random variables
- Mathematical aptitude
Interview has a broader scope
- Linear algebra, probability, math aptitude, programming aptitude
- Communications, Signal Processing
- Your area of interests and previous projects
Linear Algebra |
---|
Vector spaces, linear independence, basis, dimension |
