Amrita 
This Amrita Center offers two M.Tech programs.
M.Tech in Computational Engineering and Networking
Computational Engineering is a broad multidisciplinary area that encompasses applications in science/engineering, applied mathematics, numerical analysis and computer science. The M.Tech program is a two year program with a total of 66 credits. The course provides training so that graduates can work on solving difficult practical problems in close association with engineers, physicists, computer scientists and mathematicians. More ...
M.Tech in Remote Sensing and Wireless Networks
A two year M.Tech program with a total of 65 credits, this multi-disciplinary course integrates very diverse technologies like conventional remote sensing through satellite, in-situ remote sensing through the use of wireless sensor networks, wireless communication technology using software defined radio and Geographical Information Systems. The basic course begins with a strong foundation in mathematics. This is then strengthened by courses in image processing, pattern recognition, sensor technology, remote sensing, wireless networking and geographical information systems. More ...
Admission Requirements and Fee Structure
Candidates with B.E. / B.Tech. degree in any engineering discipline with a good
aptitude in mathematics or candidates with M.Sc. (Mathematics) with good
programming knowledge in C are eligible to apply.
Selection will be based on GATE score and performance in Amrita's Aptitude Test and Interview. The Interview Board will comprise members of the Center, two
internal subject experts from the University, Dean of Academic Affairs,
an external expert and an expert from Mathematics Department.
Stipend is given to all candidates with GATE score.
Sponsored candidates from Academic Institutions and R & D establishments are
eligible to apply but are not eligible to receive any stipend.
For external candidates without salary, partial assistance may be availble in the form of teaching assistantship or project associateship. Fees for regular candidates will differ from those for sponsored
candidates.
General Guidelines
In addition to completing the academic curriculum, students are expected to undertake a major and minor project in the respective areas. Outstanding students are provided opportunities to contribute to and work with the major sponsored research projects of the Center. A stipend is also provided to these students.
A Departmental Post Graduate Committee (DPGC) committee will monitor
the progress of the thesis work of the students. The committee will
periodically review the performance and progress of the students and
submit recommendations to the Dean (Academic Affairs) and the faculty
associated with the program.
One copy of the thesis will be sent out to an expert from major
institutions like IITs / IISc / NIT etc. for their assessment.
It is essential that the student should have submitted a paper to a refereed journal by the end of the course.
Students with good performance may be absorbed as faculty in the Center or
and other departments in the University and they will be encouraged to register and work towards their Ph.D. degree in the Center.
