Someone I know recently got his PGDM degree evaluated by WES. To answer your question, the one-year PGDM diploma is not considered a master’s. My friend completed his Executive PGDM with Business Analytics as a specialization. Canada’s equivalent report for his degree is as follows. You can find the specification here and proceed accordingly. 

• Credential Authentication: Documents will be sent directly by the institute.
• Country: India
• Credential: Postgraduate Diploma (Executive)
• Major: Management
• Awarded by: Alliance University
• Status: Recognized University
• Canadian Equivanalancy: Postgraduate Diploma (one year)

You can get your postgraduate degree evaluated by WES or IAQS. Hope this was helpful.

NIRF has ranked Thapar University 29th in the Engineering category. Whereas, LNMIIT Jaipur has been ranked 194 for B.Tech by NIRF. As Thapar university is among the finest universities for CSE in North India and LNMIIT Jaipur is an emerging college in the field of IT, these colleges are compared often. Given below is a brief comparison between the two institutes.

CSE at Thapar University

• Established in 1956, the University also has a larger alumni network as compared to LNMIIT Jaipur.
• The course fee for CSE at Thapar is 17.08 lakhs. Admissions at Thapar University is based on JEE Mains scores. The minimum eligibility criteria are 10+2 with 70% aggregate in PCM.

LNMIIT Jaipur provides opportunities for extensive research work. It also provides Summer internship programs. The programs are attended by students from IITs and NITs.

Although LNMIIT Jaipur has a lower course fee, in terms of placements, alumni network, coding culture Thapar University is better for CSE.

The CSE department is the best at IIIT Bhubaneswar. The institute intakes students into the M.Tech programs through GATE. The eligibility criteria for MTech in CSE is a B.Tech in a relevant field and valid score in GATE exam. The GATE cutoff in the closing round in 2019 for CSE was 603 (General). The course fee for the first-year is INR 1.76 LPA.

The faculty of the department are highly qualified and experienced. The faculties are alumni from IITs, IISc Bangalore, NITs.

The placement scenario is pretty good for MTech in CSE. The top recruiters include Microsoft, Dell, Infosys, IBM, CTS, etc. More than 90% of the M.Tech CSE students get placements every year. The average salary package offered is around INR 5.5 LPA.

M.Tech in Civil Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar is not as lucrative in terms of the placement scenario as compared to B.Tech. However, some renowned PSUs like GALE, IOCL, NHAI, and others recruit a small fraction of students from M.Tech also. Some of the Civil Engineering M.Tech pass-outs from the institute get placements in leading infrastructure companies like L&T, Labh group, Tata Projects, and others. However, as compared to other branches, M.Tech Civil is not so enticing in terms of placements. Most of the pass-outs from Civil M.Tech opt for Ph.D. in reputed world universities, while others opt for start-ups and consultancies. On an overall scale, the placement scenario is not that great but might still be appealing as compared to other colleges offering M.Tech in India.

IIT Bhubaneswar ranks 17th in the Engineering category by NIRF 2019. It was established in 2008 by the government of India. The campus is located in the city itself.

GATE cutoff varies based on the categories of the qualified candidates, and subjects. The previous year’s GATE cutoff for computer science at IIT Bhubaneswar for different categories of candidates was General (625), OBC (563), SC (419), and ST (419). Computer science engineering comes under the school of electrical sciences in IIT Bhubaneswar and has the highest GATE cutoff than other engineering departments. These are the relevant cutoff according to the COAP ( Common offer acceptance portal).

All the students who qualified GATE and want to take admission in IIT Bhubaneswar have to apply individually for the M.Tech program. IIT Bhubaneswar also conducts a written test and viva for the admission in M.Tech courses.

Metallurgical Engineering program in IIT Bhubaneswar is quite good.
