  MASTER OF TECHNOLOGY : M.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering  
The M.Tech program in Computer Science and Engineering prepares the student towards a career in the IT industry as well as career in academics and research. The well rounded curriculum consists of 13 advanced subjects in computer science of which 9 subjects are core subjects, and 4 subjects are electives which are selected from a pool of highly advanced subjects. The curriculum is spread over the duration of four semesters.
Objectives & Activities
         
• To holistically train students towards a career in academics or the IT industry.
• To train students in order to acquire significantly higher levels of technical and analytical problems solving capabilities
• To elevate and equip students significantly beyond a typical Bachelors degree.
• To facilitate access to niche technological jobs in the global workplace by imparting a very high standard of technical education.
  
Duration of the course:
M.Tech degree is extended over a period of two academic years, with each academic year comprising of 2 semesters.

Eligibility Criteria :
Admission to the Master of Technology Course shall be open to all the candidates who have passed B.E. / B.Tech. Examinations (in relevant field) of any recognised University and should have not less than 50% of the marks in the aggregate of all the years of the degree examinations. However, in the case of candidates belonging to SC/ST, the aggregate percentage of marks in the qualifying examinations shall not be less than 45%.
  
Career Scope

India has already emerged as a world-class knowledge hub. Together with being a leader is global IT outsourcing, India is slowly emerging as a leader in R&D outsourcing also. However, a number of factors have prevented many world-class companies from establishing their R&D units in India, with the main one being the lack of PhD and Masters level candidates in the job market. It is projected that there would be a huge demand for people with advanced degrees in computer science in the niche areas of R&D and product development. With a M.Tech degree in Computer Science, students can seek jobs which exclusively require an advanced degree. An M.Tech degree also means a higher salary, better career escalation and other associated job-related perks.

Research Activities

The Computer Science and Engineering Department is a VTU recognized research center. There are currently 3 PhD scholars pursuing their PhD in the department. The current research areas are: High Performance Computing, Task Scheduling in Heterogeneous Systems and Cloud Computing.
