Most of you may not be interested in this, but many other who don’t have Engineering degree are posting lots of questions related to eligibility of GATE exam. And most of these questions are from students, who are from science background. But this will also help friends from engineering background to help others if they doubts about GATE eligibility.
The following categories of candidates are eligible to appear in GATE :
- Bachelor degree holders in Engineering/ Technology/ Architecture (4 years after 10+2) and those who are in the final or pre-final year of such programmes.
- Master degree holders in any branch of Science/ Mathematics/ Statistics/ Computer Applications or equivalent and those who are in the final or pre-final year of such programmes.
- Candidates in the second or higher year of the Four-year Integrated Master degree programme (Post-B.Sc.) in Engineering/ Technology or in the third or higher year of Five-year Integrated Master degree programme and Dual Degree programme in Engineering/ Technology.
- Candidates with qualifications obtained through examinations conducted by professional societies recognized by UPSC/AICTE (e.g. AMIE by IE(I), AMICE(I) by the Institute of Civil Engineers (India)-ICE(I)) as equivalent to B.E./B.Tech. Those who have completed section A or equivalent of such professional courses are also eligible.
Those criteria are given by GATE official website. Let me elaborate it for students’ by name of degrees.
Second and third year MCA students are eligible for GATE.

Sir,
I just completed my B-Tech in Mechanical Engineering from Kerala. I wish to take an MBA from a very good B-School, either from India or abroad. But presently, I am under the impression that a minimum work experience is required for admission to an mba programme.. I was not able to get into a good company through campus placements. All that came were software companies. So i decided to do my M-Tech in a course which is closest to an mba. Some recommended M-Tech in Industrial Engineering & Management is the next best thing i could do before my mba presently, as it has almost the same things one would come across during an mba. I was told that if i could manage to do my M-Tech in Industrial Engineering & Management from a good university like the IITs or the NITs, that would fetch me a good job and then after 3-4 years, i could try to get into a good B-School with sufficient work experience and also a good academic back ground. With this idea in mind, i have presently joined a GATE coaching center in Hyderabad (ACE) to prepare for the same.
Sir, i would like to know if my decision is right. These are certain things I’m concerned about :
– Does Industrial Engineering & Management course have value (scope) in India or abroad?
– Will I get a good job after this course ?
– Which are the good universities in India offering this course ?
– Do i have any other alternatives ?
Please help me clear my doubts.. Expecting your sincere co operation towards the same.. Thanking you..
