Students can now pursue M.Tech at IITs without appearing for GATE

Reportedly in a meeting on monday headed by HRD minister M.M Pallam Raju, the Council of the premier institute decided that students of centrally-funded technical institutes, who have scored over 70 per cent marks in semester examination, can now pursue post-doctoral programmes at the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) without appearing for the Graduate Aptitude Test Examination (GATE).

Most interesting part about this decesion is that they will also be eligible for assistantship or fellowship at the IITs without a GATE score.
Students pursing BTech from institutes which are not centrally-funded, will also be eligible for admission to the PhD programmes at the IITs without a GATE score, if their cumulative grade point average (CGPA) is over 7.0 after third year. If such students want to avail scholarship to pursue post-doctoral programmes at the IITs, GATE score will be required, Pallam Raju said.
“All others will have to appear for GATE to get into MTech and PhD programs in IITs,” he added.
