Hi dear,

Hope you are doing well!

Now let's go through your question.

As you will be knowing that GATE is one of the toughest and most competitive examinations of the nation. Even some foreign colleges such as the:

  • National University of Singapore and
  • Nanyang Technological University (offers Ph.D. position without any GRE score.)and even companies also consider the GATE score for their entrance process.

GATE score is needed to pursue M.E./ M.Tech./ M.Sc  programs in any of the leading institutes in the country

Master's degree leads to specialization and cultivates and brings out best of your interest in a certain area which may lead to research / Ph.D.

More domain specific companies recruit through campus recruitment in leading Institutes.

You must be knowing that higher salaries are offered for post graduate student when compared to a graduate.

Masters degree is a must if you are wishing to apply for Faculty/Research positions in educational institutes and most of the R&D centers.

Scholarship of Rs 8000/- is paid during masters course; so no dependency to parents for financial needs.

If you  qualify  GATE athen you are also eligible for the award of Junior Research Fellowship in CSIR Laboratories and CSIR sponsored projects.

And, More than 37 PSUs (Public Sector Undertakings-government organizations), like BARC, IOCL etc. prescribe GATE qualification as a requirement.

Most importantly to get to be a part of any nationally reputed Educational Institute and enjoy learning and research in the conducive ambience.

You can get intellectual satisfaction of working in your area of interest.

I will end up with this, Master course changes your thought process;will teaches you how to approach and solve a problem in the totally new & unknown environment.


Thank You & All the best!
