Dear Student,

If you have studied B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering at the graduate level, then you are eligible to apply for admission at the National Power Training Institute (NPTI) in Nagpur. While NPTI mainly focuses on training in the power and energy sector, some courses are related to areas like IT, automation, and management. These areas may have relevance to Computer Science students, especially those interested in fields like data management for power plants and automation and control systems. For example, there is a course at NPTI that involves smart grid technology or IT solutions for the power sector. …

Dear Student,

Unfortunately, Sikkim Manipal University does not offer M.Tech as a distance course. If you want to take admission here, you will have to enrol in a regular 2-year MTech course in Communication and Signal Process, Computer Science & Engineering, Structural Engineering, or Power Electronics. There are other PG distance courses available at Sikkim Manipal University-Distance Education (SMU-DE), like MBA, MCA, and MSc (IT), which are UGC and Distance Education Board (DEB) approved. However, you can consider other good colleges for M.Tech distance courses like Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Open University (BRAOU), Annamalai University, …
