I am a final year M.Sc. student of Calcutta university pursuing my masters in Biotechnology. I have qualified for GATE this year in Biotech paper with an AIR of 252 and GATE score of 550. I had made up my mind to pursue M.Tech after M.Sc. ; but sadly my rank was not that great in GATE 2016. I had sorted out and wish to apply in any of the three courses in different IITs and NITs which are Environmental Engineering in IIT Delhi, Kanpur and NIT Surathkal, Bioprocess engineering in IIT Roorkee and Industrial Biotech in NIT Surathkal. Sadly, I did not meet the gate cutoff criteria in IITD and IITK. So now my choice is between bioprocess engg in IITR and Industrial Biotech/ Environmental engg in NIT Surathkal.

My main motive behind this decision was to obtain high class teaching and interactive sessions in the above stated top class institutes, excel in my subject and opt for a proper placement.

I just wanted to know which amongst these subjects I have chosen, is the one with better future prospects and whether these institutes provide good placements to eligible students.
