Department Of Systems Engineering And Engineering: Fill & Download for Free

If your GATE paper is EC then your are eligible to apply for EC2, EC3, EC4, EC5, EE2, EE4, IM, MA at IIT kharagpur.EC2 : Microelectronics and VLSI.EC3 : RF and microwave.EC4 : Telecommunications Engineering.EC5 : Visual Information and Embedded system Engineering.EE2 : Control System Engineering.EE4 : Instrumentation and Signal processing.IM : Industrial Engineering and Management.MA : Computer Science and Data processing.Now out of this courses EC2, EC3, EC4, EC5,IM, MA is based on GATE score only.And EE2, EE4 is based on GATE score + interview.I don't know much about EE4 but one of my friend is in EE2 ( control system engineering) and the subjects they study and the projects they do are quite interesting and even the placement is good for that department.You can check out in this list the respective specialisation for the specific course code and their selection procedure.

I have the unique perspective of having been both a student (KGP-B Tech 1998) and a faculty (IITB from 2010 to 11) in the IIT system. The answers above give many important things to dislike regarding IITs.As far as I can see it, the MAIN problem is that the system does not give any motivation or incentive for students or faculty to really excel in science or engineering. For example, an unsuspecting student is corralled into the department of mining or the department of textile engineering just based on the AIR and the need of the institute to fill up the seats so that Profs can justify their existence. Some poor girl has been studying Physics Chemistry and Maths for 2 years (even more) to get into IIT and had no idea that she was destined to be a textile engineer or metallurgist or whatever!First, the JEE and AIR system already is a disincentive for any student who wants to think for himself and wants to decide what he wants to learn. But worse, once the students get in, the classes are mostly compulsory and many of them are super boring. This is because there is very little incentive for faculty to excel in teaching. AND there is no incentive for them to do any good research. With a few honourable exceptions, most research output at IITs is very mediocre. The Master's and Ph D programs (the pride of any self-respecting research university) are jokes.Still, IITs will not only survive, but will expand and flourish. The reason is, their main goal is not to produce scientists and engineers, but to propel middle class kids to desirable goals -- software, management and finance jobs, grad school in the US, business school etc. Employers like the fact that these students know how to obey irrational orders without questioning (a skill they have mastered in 4 years on campus.)What is amazing is that even after this a small fraction of students still care for learning!What a terrible waste of talent and effort.

I have been a software engineer and a systems engineer and have managed both types for a long time.The truth is that systems engineers and software engineers tend to have roughly the same training, with software engineers more biased towards formal education and systems engineers being a bit more biased towards certification. As a result, you would think that systems engineers and software engineers would draw roughly the same conclusions, but they draw different conclusions for reasons that have little to do with their training.Systems engineers tend to know a lot more about the company’s capabilities generally than software engineers. If there is an inexpensive way to solve a problem, the systems engineers will know how to do that.Software engineers, on the other hand, tend to know a much more limited amount of what is going on in other departments besides their own. If you bring a problem to a software engineer, he will think of a way to code to solve it. Unfortunately, code solutions tend to be the most complex and expensive.There is an old saying, “When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail”, which essentially means people will try to solve problems with the skill sets they have, with systems engineers thinking at a macro-level and software engineers thinking at a micro-level.
