IIT Madras

It is located in the wooden campus. It looks like a forest. One of the best places to be in for a quality research in VLSI.

Remember that IIT Madras will be too late in announcing the results so as a result the analysis regarding it is very tough. But there is also less seats here on par with other IITs and also moreover they have spot admission. With this coming into picture, it makes a bit difficult to guess about the whereabouts of the analysis.

Still generally We can note the following things in general. Also there is no 3 yr Mtech – RA here. There is a MS by Research Programme. ( It is like MSc in IISC )

3.1 Mtech – 2 yr – TA – Direct Admission

AIR<50 ( General Category ) - VLSI ( If not in the first round, atleast in the later rounds)

AIR < 100 ( General Category ) – Communications.

3.2 MS By research. – Written and or Interview

1. NORMAL / REGULAR MS : It has written test and approximately upto 2000 ranks in the open category are called for the written test and Interview process. No weightage to Gate score. It is not a time bound course and professor bound course. But MS in VLSI is highly required now a days.

2. TEXAS MS : It is very good programme with the sponsorship coming from the Texas Company and an offer of employment with them post your MS. You will be paid minimum of 20K per month as stipend and also an opportunity with Texas as an Intern. The written test and Interview has strictly < 1000 rank in any category. There is no reservation.

3.3 Direct Phd / Phd – Written Test and or Interview

This is again a research programme and Direct Phd is taken immediately after Btech and normal Phd is after your Masters.

If you have any specific doubts regarding things, you can comment here and I will try to answer to the best of my knowledge regarding rank and other doubts.

Next IIT is none other than the IIT known for the most packages in 2014.. Guesses come one.
