Aravali Institute of Technical Studies Udaipur M.Tech Thermal Engineering: Fees 2027, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. A valid GATE score in ME (Mechanical Engineering) is the preferred criterion for M.Tech Thermal Engineering admission at AITS Udaipur, and GATE-qualified candidates are given priority in seat allotment. However, the college also offers seats under the management quota for candidates who do not have a GATE score but meet the minimum eligibility of 50% marks in B.Tech/B.E. in Mechanical, Automobile, Aerospace, Energy, or Chemical Engineering. Students are advised to contact the college directly at aravalieducation.org to confirm the availability of non-GATE seats for the 2026-27 batch.

Ans. As per the 2026-27 official fee structure, the tuition fee is Rs. 77,402 per year, making the total tuition fee Rs. 1,54,804 for the 2-year programme. In addition, examination fees (approx. Rs. 4,000/year), development fee (approx. Rs. 4,000/year), a one-time registration fee (approx. Rs. 3,000), and a refundable caution deposit of Rs. 3,000 are charged. The total programme cost (excluding hostel and transport) works out to approximately Rs. 1,76,804. Hostel is optional at Rs. 65,000-75,000 per year.

Ans. Graduates of M.Tech Thermal Engineering can pursue careers in power plants (NTPC, RVUNL), oil and gas companies, automotive and aerospace industries, HVAC and refrigeration firms, and research organisations like DRDO and ISRO. Roles such as Thermal Design Engineer, Energy Auditor, HVAC Engineer, Combustion Engineer, and R&D Scientist are common career paths. GATE-qualified M.Tech graduates are also eligible for PSU recruitment through GATE scores in ME.

Ans. The M.Tech Thermal Engineering curriculum at AITS (under RTU syllabus) covers advanced thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), turbomachinery, refrigeration and air conditioning, combustion engineering, renewable energy systems (solar thermal, biomass), and energy management. Students also undertake a research project/dissertation in the second year, which provides hands-on experience in solving real-world thermal engineering problems.

Ans. Yes, candidates with a B.Tech/B.E. in Chemical Engineering with a minimum of 50% marks are eligible to apply for M.Tech Thermal Engineering at AITS Udaipur, as Chemical Engineering is listed among the eligible disciplines. A valid GATE score in ME is preferred, though management quota seats are available for eligible candidates without GATE scores. Students from Automobile and Aerospace Engineering backgrounds are also eligible.

Ans. The approved seat intake for M.Tech Thermal Engineering at AITS Udaipur is 9 seats, making it one of the smallest batches among the M.Tech specialisations offered at the college. Admission is merit-based, primarily on GATE score in ME. Since AITS is a private engineering college in Rajasthan with a relatively small intake, students with a moderate GATE score or strong academic background in Mechanical/related disciplines generally secure admission. Management quota seats provide an additional route for eligible candidates.
