i am IIT ug from cs cgpa 7.3 and gate score is 406 rank 14k what is the chance if getting in IITs n psu want cybersecurity mtech if it is there
With a GATE 2025 CS score of 406 and AIR ~14,000 , securing M.Tech in Cybersecurity at IITs is unlikely, as they typically require scores above 750. For PSU recruitment , most companies have cutoffs ranging from 750 to 850 , making opportunities limited.
Alternative Options
-
NIT Patna : In 2024, the ST category cutoff for M.Tech Cybersecurity was 277 . With your score, you might have a chance, especially in later rounds.
-
Private Universities : Institutions like UPES Dehradun and Shiv Nadar University offer M.Tech in Cybersecurity with more flexible admission criteria.
Certifications : Enhance your profile with certifications such as CEH or CISSP to improve employability.
