Hi,

This course is offered by G.S.Sanyal School of Telecommunications, IIT Kharagpur. They started this M.Tech program from the academic year 2017. Me, being the student of first batch of this specialization, i suppose i can give enough information.

About the course the curriculum covers both the basic and advanced topics in Communications that can be useful for industry like Communication Signal Processing, MIMO Communications, Telecommunication Network Planning and Management etc and also have research oriented courses like Game theory, Network Optimization etc. However like any other PG student in IIT you are free to choose your electives from any department. The advantage of this course is the professor to student ratio. 

If you want to work for industry, then you have equal chances as any other specialization related to EC offered by IIT KGP.,regardless for being the first batch had 100% placement. So, if you have acquired enough knowledge and skills for industry in your stay here then you are good to go! In case you have interest for further research(here/abroad), then also you’ll be having good support from professors.

This particular school has very good faculty who has expertise in both Wireless Communications and in Networks. There are also good number of Ph.D students in the school who are ready to help you any moment.
