Hello Divya, I can help you with information about applying for a Ph.D. in Structural Engineering at IIT BHU or IIT Patna, even without being GATE qualified.

General Information and Application Process

• Eligibility: While a GATE score is often a primary requirement for Ph.D. admissions at IITs, it's not always mandatory. Many IITs allow candidates with a Master's degree and a good CGPA (like your 8.8) to apply directly. Your strong academic record will definitely be an advantage.

• Application Process:

  1. Check the Institutes' Websites: The most reliable information will be on the official websites of IIT BHU (Banaras Hindu University) and IIT Patna. Look for the "Admissions" or "Academics" sections, and then specifically for "Ph.D. Admissions."

  2. Look for Notifications: Keep an eye out for Ph.D. admission notifications. These are usually released a few times a year (typically around March-April and September-October), but it's best to check regularly.

  3. Read the Admission Brochure/Information Bulletin Carefully: This document will contain crucial details about eligibility criteria (including specific CGPA requirements, GATE exemptions, etc.), the application process, required documents, selection procedure, important dates, and available specializations within Structural Engineering.

  4. Online Application: Usually, you'll need to fill out an online application form. Be prepared to upload scanned copies of your mark sheets, degree certificates, GATE score card (if you have one), photo ID, and other documents as specified in the information brochure.

  5. Application Fee: Pay the application fee online.

• Selection Process:

  • Shortlisting: IITs will typically shortlist candidates based on their academic record, research experience (if any), and sometimes a written test. Since you don't have a GATE score, your Master's CGPA will be very important.

  • Interview: Shortlisted candidates will be called for an interview. The interview panel will assess your understanding of the subject, research aptitude, and motivation for pursuing a Ph.D. Be prepared to discuss your Master's thesis and any research projects you've worked on.

How to Find the Form Dates

1. IIT BHU Website: Go to the IIT BHU website ( https://www.iitbhu.ac.in/ ). Navigate to the "Academics" or "Admissions" section and look for "Ph.D. Admissions."

2. IIT Patna Website: Go to the IIT Patna website ( https://www.iitp.ac.in/ ). Similarly, find the "Academics" or "Admissions" section and then "Ph.D. Admissions."

3. Check Regularly: Visit these pages regularly (at least once a week) to check for updates and announcements.

4. Set Up Google Alerts: Set up Google Alerts for keywords like "IIT BHU Ph.D. Admissions," "IIT Patna Ph.D. Admissions," and "Ph.D. Admissions Civil Engineering." This way, you'll receive email notifications when new information is published online.

Important things to remember:

• Contact the Departments Directly: If you have specific questions, don't hesitate to contact the Civil Engineering departments at IIT BHU and IIT Patna. You can find their contact information on the respective websites.

• Prepare a Strong Statement of Purpose (SOP): Your SOP is crucial, especially without a GATE score. Clearly articulate your research interests, why you want to pursue a Ph.D., and why you're a good fit for the program at that specific IIT. Highlight your Master's thesis and any research experience.

• Recommendation Letters: Obtain strong recommendation letters from your professors or supervisors who can vouch for your academic abilities and research potential.

Good luck with your applications!

Hello!

You haven't mentioned the course in which you want admission in IIT Patna. The admission to various courses is different. Students seeking admission to undergraduate engineering courses have to JEE main and JEE advanced and after that they have to register with JOSAA for counseling.

And students seeking admission in post-graduate engineering courses have to secure a valid score in GATE and then register with COAP.

Hope this information will help you. Thank you.

Yes of course you have medium chances  to get into mentioned iits in material science.

Dear Aspirant, See IIT Patna has higher ranking. Median Salary of IIT Patna is 14 lakhs. IIT Patna is one of India's best engineering colleges, with exceptionally excellent faculty standards. The college has excellent placement standards, which is one of the reasons I chose IIT Patna.
IT Patna B Tech Placement 2022. Average Salary for CSE is 38.79 LPA
IIT Placements 2022 set new highs for Batch 2022, Job offers in Crores.
Job Offers in Crores continues 2.5 Crore offered at IIT Guwahati.
NIT B Tech Placements 2022. Highest Salary 1.8 Cr.
IIT Jammu Placement 2022. Average Salary for CSE is 18 LPA.
IIT Patna Placements 2022: Highest Package: INR 61.3 LPA & Average Package: INR 26.9 LPA.
IIT Indore was ranked 401-500 in the world by the Times Higher Education World University Rankings of 2021, 78 in Asia and 79 among emerging economies. In India, it was ranked 10 among engineering colleges by the National Institutional Ranking Framework in 2020. In terms of infra, IIT BHU is still ahead of IIT Indore. The machines, etc are old in the old departments such as mechanical, etc. However, departments like CSE and Mathematics have brand new buildings, computers, etc.  In mechanical and civil engineering branches, core placements chances are very low, but there are high chances for non-core placements. However, CS and electrical students have good placements, and metallurgy and material science students also have good chances to get placed better. The institute has successfully placed 94.5% of BTech and 57.4% of MTech students during the IIT Indore placement 2022.

HELLO

To be honest, 80 is an amazing score but it does not guarantee your seat into IITs. For getting into an IIT, you need to score good in JEE mains and advance. Admissions into IITs is only based on that. All the best !

Hello,

Undoubtedly IIT Guwahati is a better among the three IITs because it is considered to be among the top 7-8 IITs. So, the cut off for cse branch IIT Guwahati is also under 600-700 so you need to score really good to get the cse branch over there.

The infrastructure and view of IIT Guwahati is just amazing you will enjoy the campus life. I can be rest assured of that.

But the other IITs are not so good with computer science branch and are not considered to be among the top ones. IIT Patna is comparatively a newer IIT.
