CDAC CAT results announced. Which center to choose for VLSI?

irocker
@irocker-kpiCnd • Oct 26, 2024

Hello All,

I completed B.Tech(ECE) in 2010 and have been working as a Software Engineer (working on Microsoft technologies) since then in an IT company. I now want to move back to my field of electronics by doing VLSI (or some other) specialization.

Q1. Would pursuing this 6-month PG Diploma in VLSI help me in fetching a career in VLSI at this stage of my career??

Please tell me little about Quality of education at C-DAC & its placements.

Also, I got 170 rank in C-CAT {D-VLSI, PG diploma}. I have three centers to choose from: C-DAC Pune, TICA Mumbai & Soft Polynomials, Nagpur.

Q2. Which center should I go for? What actually are my chances of getting into Pune center?

    Answer to your first question is, it all depends on the concepts you've built during engineering. VLSI is a vast field and not to mention pretty challenging too, which is the reason there are so much lack of VLSI professionals in the industry.

    Yes, to certain extent this course should help, atleast make you more than a 'fresher' and quickly productive for the company recruiting you.

    I've already answered your second question in thhe other thread.

    Thanx [Prototype]. Would you please also put light on quality of education C-DAC provides and its placements.

    Dude, frankly speaking, working in a big IT firm isn't my cup of tea. Due to professional satisfaction, I want to move back to my field of study in which I did B.Tech and I am not working in Microsoft (MS). I am working on MS technologies like dot net, sharepoint etc. Please guide me on aforesaid points:

    Hmm...n what could be the reason I only got these 3 options while giving priority: C-DAC Pune, TICA Mumbai & Soft Polynomials, Nagpur and not CDAC Bangalore, Hyd??? I have heard Bangalore is also good.

    it's because blore Cdac doesn't provide PG-DVLSI ..

    What doyou mean locked only VLSI? Please write here your preference list.

    Besides, why you guys so eager to lock? It will ve automatically locked on 3rd. Why you're close the doors for yourselves?

    Alright, its fine if you just want VLSI. Its actually wise to put only the course you wish to do.

    But I am asking for the other two. If you know something about DHI and DASS.

    DHI, I dont know. DASS is pretty software related, SCADA. Anyways it doesnt matter now. Just leave this here. The more you will go inside, the more chances you will have regret on your choice. Now just wait and watch, what happens on 7th.
