Admissions for the academic year 2024-25 are open.

M.Tech.  Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE)

The goal of post graduate programmes at IIIT-B is to develop professionals of high quality to cater to the needs of industry and academia. Such education will be based on a broad grasp of the fundamental principles of the sciences and scientific methods, a deep understanding of specific area of specialization, an ability to solve new problems, and a capacity to learn continually and interact with multidisciplinary groups. Above all, IIIT-B aims at developing in its students a capacity for free and objective enquiry, courage and integrity, and awareness and sensitivity to the needs and aspirations of society. The postgraduate programs are designed with the above goals in view. They include courses of study, seminars, project work, and internships, or research leading to a thesis.

M. Tech. in Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) is a two-year (4 semester) programme. The programme has been approved by AICTE. The students enrolled needs to earn atleast 64 credits, with atleast a CGPA of 2.4 (in a 4 point grading system) to graduate with M. Tech (ECE) degree.

Students in the first semester will choose courses worth of 20 credits, from the following list of courses.

  • Digital CMOS VLSI Design (4 Credits)
  • Analog CMOS VLSI Design (4 Credits)
  • Physical Design of ASICs (4 Credits)
  • Machine Learning (4 Credits)
  • Mathematics for Machine Learning (4 Credits)
  • Networking and Communication (4 Credits)
  • Mobile Computing (4 Credits)
  • System design with FPGA (4 Credits)
  • Embedded Systems Design (4 Credits)


The students will choose 5 elective courses in second semester and 3 from the third semester. Each M.Tech. (ECE) student should do SIX branch elective courses. The last semester will be Thesis/Internship. Depending on the elective courses students choose, M. Tech. (ECE) students have the option to Specialize in one of the following listed areas.

  1. AIML (Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning).
  2. TCS  (Theoretical Computer Science).
  3. SY (Software Systems).
  4. NC (Networking and Communication).
  5. VLSI (VLSI Systems).
  6. DT (Digital Society).

From this year onwards, we will be admitting students with GATE ECE and GATE EE scores. The students with EE background will have to go through additional preparatory courses to cover pre-requisite topics that are relevant for the M.Tech. ECE programme. This additional effort from students will bis expected during the three-weeks of preparatory semester in the Institute.

In addition to the IIITB scholarships, GATE-qualified students will be eligible for fellowships from AICTE as per AICTE norms. (across CSE and ECE

 

Since the M.Tech. programme is very demanding, and classes, tutorials and laboratory sessions often extend beyond regular working hours and during the weekends, staying at the hostel accommodation provided by the Institute is mandatory.

The male students admitted to the M.Tech. programme will be provided accommodation in an off-campus hostel facility arranged by IIITB. The female students will be provided hostel accommodation on campus itself. The hostel fee rates are applicable uniformly for all the students irrespective of the hostel location.
