POSTAL PREPARATORY PROGRAMME
FOR THE
GRADUATE APTITUDE TEST IN ENGINEERING
(GATE), 2009
HERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY…….

GATE qualification, however, is not required for candidates with Masters
degrees in Engineering / Technology / Architecture / Pharmacy who may
be seeking scholarships / assistantships for relevant doctoral programmes.
For admission to postgraduate programmes with scholarships/assistantships
from the Ministry of Human Resources Development, a minimum
weightage of 70% is given to the GATE Score with the remaining
weightage given to the student’s performance in the qualifying exam and.
/or interview. The exact procedure followed for the award of these
scholarships/assistantships will be defined by the respective Institution
granting admission.
Some Institutions specify GATE as the mandatory qualification even for
admission of self-financing students to postgraduate programmes. GATE
qualified candidates in Engineering disciplines are also eligible for the
award of Junior Research Fellowship in CSIR Laboratories. Some government
Organizations prescribe GATE qualification as a requirement for the
posts of a Scientist/Engineer.
There is also an increasing trend of using the GATE score by some
universities as well as many Indian and Multi-national Companies for
recruitment.
Date of Exam
The GATE exam is normally held on the second Sunday in February and
the results announced by the middle of March.
GATE Score
The GATE score becomes valid only after the candidate completes all
requirements of the qualifying degree. The GATE 2009 score will be valid
for two years from the date of announcement of results.
The Score card will indicate the GATE Score and the rank of the qualified
candidates.
The GATE Score of a candidate is a statistical performance index in the
range 0 to 1000. The maximum score can be 1000. It reflects the ability of
a candidate irrespective of the paper or year in which he/she has qualified.
Candidates with the same GATE Score from different disciplines and/or
years can be considered to have the same performance level.
Eligibility
(a) Bachelor’s degree holders in Engineering/Technology/Architecture/
Pharmacy (4 years after 10+2) and those who are in the final
or pre-final year of such programmes.
(b) Master’s degree holders in any branch of Science/Mathematics/
Statistics/Computer Applications or equivalent and those who
are in the final or pre-final year of such progrmmes.
(c) Candidates in the second or higher year of the four-year Integrated
Master’s degree programme (Post-B.Sc.) in Engineering/
Technology or in the third or higher year of the five-year
Integrated Master’s degree programmes and Dual Degree
programme in Engineering/Technology. Currently, these
students they can qualify for PG scholarships only in their own
Institutions. They are not eligible for admission in a fresh ME/
M.Tech. Programme.
(d) Candidates with qualifications obtained through an examination
conducted by professional societies recognized by the UPSC/
AICTE (eg. AMIE) as equivalent to B.E./B.Tech. Those who
have completed Section A or equivalent of such professional
courses are also eligible.
