I'm currently doing my Bsc.Cs final year , it's a 3-year course after this can i get admission as Mtech.data science through Gate exam?
Yes, you can pursue an M.Tech in Data Science through the GATE exam, but it depends on the eligibility criteria of the institutions you are applying to. Generally, most IITs, NITs, and other top institutions require a B.Tech/B.E. or equivalent degree for M.Tech programs. However, some institutes accept candidates with a 3-year B.Sc. (preferably with honors) if they meet certain conditions.
Here’s what you can do:
-
Check GATE Eligibility: You are eligible to appear for the GATE exam, as it is open to candidates with a B.Sc. degree.
-
Verify Institute Requirements: Institutions may have specific eligibility for M.Tech admissions. For example:
- Some might require additional qualifications like completing a bridge course or a valid GATE score in relevant streams.
- Others might require a four-year degree or an integrated master’s program.
Explore Alternative Options:
- Some private universities or foreign universities offer direct M.Tech or equivalent courses after a 3-year degree.

Hello,
Yes, you can do M.Tech in Data Science after 3-year B.Sc. in Computer Science if you clear GATE exam as GATE now allows 3-year degree holders to apply. Make sure your B.Sc. degree is from a UGC-recognized institution.
Though many universities accept GATE scores for M.Tech admission, some institutes like IITs may prefer candidates with a 4-year degree (B.Tech/BE) or a master's degree (M.Sc./MCA) after B.Sc.
Let's get on with GATE preparation in Computer Science (CS) or any related paper. Scoring high in GATE is a must for getting admission into top institutes. If your desired university requires more qualifications, you could opt for an M.Sc. or MCA first.
Find out the specific eligibility criteria of the universities you are targeting and plan accordingly.
