    Dear Kandarp, Both M.Tech and MBA provide excellent career options and have gained importance over the time. M.Tech or MBA is always an additional advantage to an engineer whether it is in terms of experience, knowledge or seniority. Whether it be an IT, manufacturing, or R&D driven establishment, there would be requirements for both M. Techs and MBAs. The M. Techs would be more of a subject matter specialist, whereas the MBAs would handle product sales and marketing, project management, IT process, human resources, consulting and customer service management etc. Doing M.Tech in a particular field would make you invaluable for a compan

    Well, M.Tech will give you perfection in engineering and MBA will give you professionalism in what you do, both have good scope in their fields so the choice is yours depending upon what you want to be.

    Hi Kandarp, M.Tech will lead you to deeper study and research in your core field of engineering. The career following M.Tech will be more oriented towards teaching, research and consulting. MBA will lead you to gaining management skills in whichever specialisation you do. The career following MBA will be more towards techno-management roles, more into corporate and entrepreneurship. So it is your choice!
    Go check your interests, aptitude, hobbies, attitude, bent of mind and ASPIRATIONS before taking a plunge into any of these. But whatever you decide, pursue only from universities of high repute like Iims, PU, IITS, SIBM, VIT, BITs and

    It's all depends upon the area of interest. In case one wants to be in the technical domain, then they must continue with M.Tech. Whereas in case anyone wants to change their domain or want to have more job opportunities after post graduation then they must do MBA.

    Without a doubt, MBA is a very good notion after B.Tech. Job opportunities after MBA in India are wide, and it is the responsibility of the students to pick up the right job from the options available. While considering the job opportunities after MBA, the students must make a list of options, analyze the pros and cons and weed out the thorns to weave the path of success. LPU is known for its MBA. LPU provides quality education, with great scholarship programs plus holistic learning opportunities. Mittal School of Business is among the first 10 institutions in India to get ACBSP (USA) accreditation. LPU is ranked No. 2 among Indian B-S

    This is a very prudent question and many of us get in a fix which one to decide. Well as I always suggest my students of LPU who are pursuing their B.Tech, I would guide you the same. Like in LPU along with the core technical training we emphasis on developing managerial skills in our scholars by putting them through multiple task oriented live training where they learn people management skills, task handling, decision making, problem solving, strategizing and planning. In LPU we run live projects, hands on training, internships, events, clubs and leads. These can be very well assessed from the website of LPU. LPU has immense amount of

    Hello Kandarp Patel, Both MBA and M.Tech courses are good, beneficial and offer a stable career. But the decision of opting one between the two courses totally depends on your choice and field of interest. MBA is a PG course of 2 years duration. It opens the jobs in non technical industries such as banks etc. On the other hand, M.Tech degree offers opportunities in the academia, research & development and technical fields.

    Actually, it depends on you. If you want to go in the marketing field or any future planning of startup you should surely move to MBA, otherwise you should opt M.Tech for you to be best in your field.

I've had a really good experience with the mechanical engineering faculty at Chandigarh University. Most of them are PhD holders, so you can tell they know their subject inside out. What I like is that they're not just teaching from books—they share real-world examples, guide us in labs, and help with projects. The faculty is approachable, so if you ever get stuck on something, you can just ask, and they'll explain patiently. They also encourage students to explore electives like Thermal & Energy Engineering, Industrial Manufacturing, or Design & Robotics, and help you pick what suits your career goals.

Yes, Chandigarh University is a good choice for B.E. in Mechanical Engineering. What I really like about the programme is the variety of specializations you can pick, like Thermal & Energy, Industrial Manufacturing & Management, or Automation & Robotics. The labs are another strong point from 3D printing and advanced welding labs to industry-backed centres by Honda, Mahindra, Hyundai, and MG Motors. These collaborations give you hands-on exposure that feels very close to real-world industry work. On top of that, the department is both ABET and NBA accredited, which adds global recognition.
