Marwadi University Rajkot M.Tech Civil Engineering: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. GATE is not strictly mandatory for admission to M.Tech Civil Engineering at Marwadi University. The university offers two routes: the ACPC route (where GATE score is used for merit ranking) and the direct university route (where admission is based on B.Tech/BE academic merit). However, GATE qualification is essential if you wish to avail the AICTE PG Scholarship of Rs. 12,400 per month. Students who are GATE-qualified are also exempted from the university's own written entrance test, making the process smoother.

Ans. Marwadi University offers M.Tech Civil Engineering with specialisations including Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, and Transportation Engineering. The programme covers advanced topics such as finite element analysis, soil mechanics, pavement design, and construction project management. Students typically choose their specialisation at the time of admission or during the first semester based on faculty availability and research interests.

Ans. Marwadi University is a designated Centre of Excellence (CoE) university in Gujarat, which means 25% of its M.Tech seats are filled through the ACPC centralised counselling process, while the remaining 75% are management quota seats filled directly by the university. For the ACPC route, students must register on gujacpc.admissions.nic.in, submit their GATE score, fill choices, and participate in online seat allotment rounds. For the management quota, students apply directly to the university and are admitted based on B.Tech merit or GATE score.

Ans. The total tuition fee for the 2-year M.Tech Civil Engineering programme is Rs. 1,80,000 (Rs. 45,000 per semester x 4 semesters), as per the official 2026-27 fee structure. If you opt for on-campus hostel accommodation, the annual hostel fee ranges from Rs. 96,000 (8-bed non-AC) to Rs. 2,05,000 (2-bed AC), making the total 2-year cost (tuition + hostel) approximately Rs. 3,72,000 to Rs. 5,90,000 depending on the room type chosen. GATE scholarship holders can offset a significant portion of this cost through the Rs. 12,400/month AICTE stipend.
