What are the ways to prepare for the GATE for ECE from the 1st year onward?

No need of doing it . Don’t waste your entire four years of B.Tech only in Preparation of GATE Exam. Actually their are two reasons behind it: In 1st year you will not study any core subject. You will study only common subjects which will not be asked in GATE. Although the knowledge of these Subjects may be required some where in Future. Like you will find the use of Basic Electrical Engineering course in your Electronics Subjects. So read them seriously but don’t devote your entire time into them.  Instead do something else . Now  you can do the following things: In your 1st year  explore yourself . Find your interests. Learn new things. Make some Robots. Do some coding. Participate in different technical & Cultural Activities. In vacations make your own Blog, learn web development. Try to create website and do other stuffs. From 2nd year On wards you will study your Core subjects. Now you can  prepare for GATE . It will help you in two ways. Preparing for GATE will hel

What are the best career options after a BTech in ECE?

There are Plenty of Career Options in ECE after B.Tech. Electronics Graduates can go for any one sector. There are many sectors which provides them opportunity to enhance their skills. Here I have listed some of the career Options which can be choose by an ECE Graduate. Job Option:  This option is mostly Preferred by graduates. Their are lot of job options available for ECE Students. I have divided here job options into different sectors so that ECE Students can analyse that how many sectors they have to work. Networking Sector:  Electronics Engineers can go in Networking sectors Job. Some big companies like Cisco and other provides this Opportunity. They can get some handsome amount of wages too. IT Sector:  Electronics students can go for this sector too. This sectors demands a good knowledge in Programming Languages. After gaining some experience good amount of money can also be earned. Core Electronics Sector:  This is definitely on the first priority for the students. W

My Quora answer on What should ECE students do to get high salary?

Why Should only High Salary? Is it enough for you? Dear rather than thinking about High salary you must think about that job which can give you pleasure & Satisfaction both. If in that job you earn some low livelihood than it does’t matter because you will be leaving a happy life. You will feel enjoyment while doing your work. So go for that job which gives you pleasure instead of high salary job. Now coming to your question. Actually there are not so many Companies of electronics in India. So it becomes a difficult for an ECE graduate to find a decent job. And to fetch a job in the Big organisation as a fresher is not a Cake walk. So here i am listing some points which can be useful for the students to get a decent pack in good Organizations: CGPA:  Your CGPA is the first think which any organization will surely look. And than after you will be pass to the next forward rounds. As a fresher you must have a very well maintained CGPA in order to fetch a Job in any Big Organiz

What are the types of sensors that can be used to detect the presence fishes or objects at underwater?

Sonar (Sound Navigation and Ranging): It is a Technique that can be used to communicate, Detect Objects or to navigate under the Surface of water. It is of Basically two Types: Active Sonar & Passive sonar . Sonars Basically works from Infrasonic to above a Megahertz frequency Range. 405 nanometer Blue Laser: You can use it too. But you need to use Epoxy Potting Compound to Waterproof the Module. For extended Coverage you can split the laser beam using a parallel prism and than can use  Photodarlington  as a sensing element. Mount the sensing element Close to the laser. You can put a Violet-blue gel filter too to improve the Selectivity. Laser+Sensor Combination  approaches any reflective or dispersive Surface, The intensity of blue light incident on the  phototransistor  Increases. Thanks!!!!!!!!

What are the differences and similarities between CSE and ECE?

“Difference & similarities both are up to the individual that at what extent he want to learn.” I will start here with similarities. See either it’s ECE or CSE both are Considered as one of the best Branches and elected by mostly Top Rankers. Now lets dive and find that what is similar in these two branches- Programming:  It is something that is Common between both the branches. While one might argue that CSE is totally related with programming while ECE is not. So as i said earlier that it is upto the student that how much he want to learn. If i talk here only in reference of syllabus than ECE student only have to studies C, C++ as a computer programming. But i have seen some students who learn Python, HTML, CSS, Java Script, Big data, Java etc. despite belong to the ECE Branch. I can give my example as well that i am an ECE student but i learn HTML, CSS, MySql by itself and created my website. So its totally depend on Individual that how much he is hungry for learning.

My Quora answer on I am a final-year electronics engineering student. I am interested in a core company. I want to work for Texas Instruments or ISRO. How would I get there?

As you have not mentioned here about your college, so i am considering that you are not from any Premium Engineering Institute like IITs. Because if you are from IIT than Perhaps it is not a big deal for you to do the job in Texas Instrument. So here i am assuming that you are from a moderate engineering college and you have a decent academics along with some attracting  extraa curriculum activities . Here what i mean from extraa curriculum activities is that you must have won some hackathon in IITs, You should be good in coding too & have some research papers on your name. If you hold a patent Record than its also good. Now if you want to job in Texas Instrument right after your B.Tech and considering that you are not from Top college, Chances are very less. Here i am attaching some points which are only  for Texas Instrument - Fill your Resume with achievements:  Your resume should reflect that how much potential you have. Its should be full of achievements, Resea

My Quora answer on I’m a 3rd year ECE student interested in programming and networking. Should I go in for a network admin or embedded software?

Its quite common Dilemma among the ECE Undergraduates. Infact i know some of my seniors who did their M.Tech in different specialization & doing work in some other field. So, first of all its up to you That in which field you want to make your career. I will suggest you if you have ardent interest in any of the field then choose that field. So you can enjoy your work and make significantly growth in your career. Now here i am providing an comparison between these two on different parameters- Salary-  From salary point of view embedded field (Software Engineer, Developer, Coder ) dominates somewhere over Network administration field (DevOps, Ops, SRE etc). But the difference is not too much. But it is not always certain. Salary also depend upon timing, Location, Personal Skills and much more. you can check these two links to check the salary of these two fields- Salary: Network Administrator Salary: Embedded Software Engineer 2.  Pressure of work: Network administra

Engineering- ( What to do in 4 years?)

Hello all, This Post is all about what to do in the entire 4 years of engineering so that it became worthful for you. I have seen that most of the students are not aware with the available opportunities & so they missed it. I will explain here progressively that how a student from tier 3 college can do a lot better in his/her academics. So lets start to dive in: 1st year: In the 1st year of engineering you only need to be focus on your studies. No need to do something extraa. Just Try to achieve 9+ pointer and even more. Academics are very Important don’t ruined it. Except it you can participate in some technical & Cultural fest of your college. It will help you to explore your Interest. Learn C, C++ language. It will help to make some small projects. Make Dirty your hands with microcontrollers, Arduino and other electronics components. Make some small projects like line following robot, wall climbing robot etc. If your college schedule is too hectic than you can

Is it necessary for an ECE first-year student to know about IOT technology?

Internet of things (IOT)  is an Emerging Technology & have a vast scope in future. Its still in its development phase. So those who are expert in this are availing the Good job offers. Now coming back to your question if you are in 1st Year than you can learn it. I think you have surely watched the Movie  3 Idiots . There is famous dialogue in that movie - “ Life is a race , if u don’t run fast, u will be like a broken andaa… The same thing applies in our education system. There are lakhs of students who are doing Engineering. So if you have to distinguish yourself from others than  you have to do something different . You can learn IOT in your winter vacation. It will surely help you. Some people will suggest you that do this course in your 2nd or 3rd year vacations. So you can easily understand it. But let me clear one thing here that for IOT you need to  learn python, IBM Bluemix, some elementary knowledge of Sensors . And these all are not the part of your subject Cur

My Quora answer on What should I know before attending a robotics workshop, being an ECE student?

It actually depends on your graduation year.  If you are a Sophomore then possibility is that you will be novice in this field until you have not been fascinated in the robotics field from your Childhood. For a 1st year student only some basic knowledge will be sufficient. You must have an idea regarding different types of robots & how actually they work. Nothing more. After workshop (It actually depends that what Organizers will teach you) you will be able to make your own small racing robot. I am assuming the condition if they teach you the least level. Otherwise you may also make programming based robots. But it all depends on the level of workshop. You may also learn the wireless robots in the workshops. For a 2nd year student it will be required that he must be good in any programming language (Object oriented programming) like C, C++ etc. After attending the workshop you might be able to make robots which perform their functions with the help of Programming. You will be

What are the present valuable and essential courses to ECE students, both in software and hardware?

We are moving towards automation. Technology is changing like never before. For example about each year we get a new edition of Apple phone in market which brings new technology in its every edition. Particularly if you talk about Industries then Each & every work is simulated on software before converting it in tangible form. Simple why any one will spend a huge capital on those things about which he/she is not sure. So is you are planning to join Industry just after your B.Tech do more focus on software Courses. And infact if I talk particularly in Electronic sector then hardware is something which can not be completed with out software. You have to do programming for electronics components like Arduino, Microcontrollers, Antenna design etc. In simple words hardware & software complement each other. Trend wise i will recommend you to learn Python first and then directly move on Internet of things. Definitely you will be in high demand if you learn these two things

Different Placement aptitude test Exams

Hello friends, Today i am sharing here details about some of the aptitude exams which can help the students in getting a job. I will also add my personal experience of those exams. These exams are quite fruitful for the Tier 3 college students where often big companies do not visit. So students can give these exams and then on the basis of their score they can apply in some big firms. So lets begin: Cocubes: I have personally given this test. There are basically 6 sections in the paper of Cocubes. Its starts with Verbal section then Quantitative aptitude after that WET (English essay section) then Technical section after that Personality test section & at last coding section. Now the Important point here is that personality test section does’t get count in final marks. They will only assign a Personality type in your results. So you will get the marks based on your performance in the 5 sections. The maximum marks in this test is 800. If you managed to get more than 430

How does 5G technology work?

There is a famous proverb in English that “ Necessity is the mother of Invention ”. So in order to understand that what could be the next generation technology, we have to first understand that where the current network is being failed or what type of challenges it is facing currently. There should be some estimation in the form of stats that tells us that what will be the scenario in 2020. Then only we will find the requirements which we want from the next generation network to fulfill. Anyways, According to the ITU ( International Telecommunication Union ) these are some of the requirements which world want from the wireless domain to fulfill it by 2020. Supports up to 1000 times more traffic : Yes there is an estimation that when we will enter in 2020 the traffic would be increase up to 1000 times more. This traffic includes crowd not only from mobile data but also from different sources. As we know that the number of connected device with Internet is quite large (more than 1 B

Absolutely right. Summer Internship play a vital role in student’s career. Why? Lets understand it…. Experience:  Experience is one of the most valuable asset in present era. If you have a work experience in any good company then it can help you in fetching a good job. When you do summer internship in any esteemed organization, you learn so many things there. According to the assigned job profile you do your work their & gain some expertization in your work. This experience can be proved quite valuable when you will search for the job. Pre-Placement Offer (PPO):  Yes, sometimes companies may send you PPO based on your Performance. If you perform really well during your Internship then it might can open a door as a full time employee for you in that company. Networking:  When you work for the company around 30–45 days, you make some new connections their. Your range of connections can be so wide. You can have some connections from higher management of that organization as we

What are the simple businesses for startups this year?

There are so many ideas on which work can be carried out & now a days most of the graduates are working on these ideas. But the important thing here is that  in which field your ardent interest falls . You can start working in any field, You could also have a fantastic idea but if your interest does’t fall in that then you will sabotage it quite easily. Never think that your idea is quite common and any one can steal it . No not at all. Let us suppose For a moment why anyone have not produced yet another google/facebook/apple etc despite we have one of the best programmers all across the world. Because of their unique selling property. Its the quality of your product which anyone can not produce. And you can only bring that quality in your product if you do your work with full interest. So Idea could be anything but make sure that you have lot of interest in that. So when you will work on that idea then it will create the history.  Here i will suggest some of the ideas

When do the applications for a summer internship at IIT open?

Application Process for Internships in most IITs & NITs starts around January -February each year. Most of the colleges open their portal about this time. But some IITs open their portal in march too. I still can remember that i had to wait longer time for IIT-Jodhpur application Portal. I will personally recommend you too apply in most of the IITs/NITs if you are meeting the eligibility Criteria. Except IIT Delhi Internship Programme (GIPEDI) all are  free to apply . IIT delhi charges some nominal fees. Not only IITs/NITs actually most of the universities including  foreign Universities too starts their application process in the January Month . So i will suggest you to keep eyeing on those opportunities too. I am providing some links here which will be quite helpful for you. I am listing here some of the websites of different Colleges from where you can do your Research based Internships: IIT-Bombay:  Under the guidance of Professor D. B. Phatak, Computer Science Depart
