About Master of Technology (M.Tech)
A master’s degree is an academic qualification that is offered to students who have successfully completed postgraduate studies, showing a high level of competence in a particular area. It can therefore be a viable choice for students who wish to further their knowledge of a specific subject. Students must hold a bachelor’s degree, or its equivalent, to apply for a master’s degree.

Difference between ME and MTech
Below are the key difference between ME and MTech technology in the term course material, practical impact orientation,
As we know full formof ME is Master of Engineering while MTech full form is Master of Technology. Below I have mentioned the basic differentiation between these two degrees in terms of their practical power, course material, and alignment.
| ME | MTech |
| M.E. full form – Masters of Engineering | M.Tech. full form – Masters of Technology. |
| M.E. course have more concerned with knowledge | M.Tech. have more concerned with a skills |
| M.E. is usually designed for those students who have an interest in engineering employees and already have done graduation with the same stream | M.Tech course is usually designed for that student who has interest in technology and to get jobs in Research Engineering and technology industry |
| M.E. course provides the study of the in-depth concept, clarification of facts and innovative engineering | M.Tech. stresses on practical coverage of conceptual knowledge. |
| M.E. is a predictable study that is made for theory based study. | M.Tech. contains how technology provide benefit for nation and human being |

M.Tech Course Preparation Tips:
Nowadays Mtech/ME is one of the perused exams by the student and the most demanding course by both government and private sector industry, to get admission in top engineering college is very competitive due to limited seats in India and that is by its so important to be prepared for the entrance exam, to give the best in entrance exam aspirants should start their preparation as the earliest possible
In the syllabus of Mtech entrance exams have core engineering subjects according to the specialization that depends upon the student in which master’s course they’re have selected at the time of form application submission willing to apply for. Many universities have English subject to check verbal communication and skill in the student, your proper knowledge of theoretical concepts of core subjects are not sufficient to qualify entrance exam such as GATE exam you should be good in resolving the application based questions
Below are some useful tips to the qualified entrance to get admission in MTech/ME :
Strong Basics: To qualified the exam student required strong knowledge in core subjects and your concept should be clear about any fundamental topic if you have a good understanding of the subject then you can resolve every question related to that topic and subject,
A clear understanding of the exam pattern: Before you start your preparation for the exam you should know about entrance exam pattern, about syllabus, about negative marketing, type of question, and accordingly can make your study plan,
Make effective time table- check all syllabus which has to come in the exam and make your time table accordingly so that you can cover all the subjects, give moretime to your week point,
Problem-solving attitude: Applying theoretical knowledge into the mathematical way or analytical way is very much needed skill and quality required to clear most of the entrance exams. To get skills which help you to qualify the exam must go for problem-related books, grip the concept in a difficult way,
Effective Time management: These entrance exams have negative marking so there one with one wrong answer can bring a huge difference in the ranking score. And that is by it is very important to attempt all question with the right answer and for that you have fast, and focused, this can possible only when you do regular practice
Solve old question paper and mock test – when you solve the sample paper and old question paper you will get to know about the exam pattern, about your week point, understanding of your strength, your speed, and where you have work more about your capability, these question paper is available on the internet and in stationery stores and in library, make a practice at least 30 to35 samples on daily basis,
