The document outlines the field of computer engineering, which integrates computer science and electrical engineering, detailing the opportunities for further education, specifically a master's degree in computer engineering. A master's degree provides advanced skills and better job prospects in various roles such as hardware engineer or computer architect, especially with the growth of technologies like AI and IoT. The Maharashtra Institute of Technology Academy of Engineering (MITAOE) in Pune offers a comprehensive m.tech program in this area, emphasizing project-oriented learning and industry readiness.

1. Masters in Computer
Engineering - MITAOE

2. What is Computer Engineering?
• Computer Engineering is a branch of
Engineering, which combines the study of
computer science and electrical engineering to
develop computer hardware and software. It
covers areas in Electronic or Electrical
Engineering, hardware-software integration, and
software design.

3. • Students with a passion for a specific area in
Computer Engineering can further go for a
Masters in Computer Engineering degree after
completing their Bachelor of Engineering (or
Technology) in Computer Engineering. Note that
Computer Engineering is different from software
engineering, which deals primarily with building
and maintaining software systems.

4. • The tasks done by computer engineers include
writing software and firmware for embedded
microcontrollers, designing analog sensors,
VLSI chips, mixed-signal circuit boards, and
operating systems. Computer engineers can
also be suited for a career in robotics research,
which uses digital systems to control and
monitor electrical systems such as sensors,
motors, and communication. A Master's degree
in computer engineering is an excellent way to
gain the full breadth of knowledge in a particular
area of Computer Engineering because an
undergraduate degree is not always enough to
cover the full scope of the specialized areas.

5. Job prospects for Masters in
Computer Engineering
• Computer engineers with a Masters in this field can
find employment opportunities in a variety of areas
depending on their niche area of specialization. With
a Master's degree, they can find high paying jobs as a
Computer Hardware Engineer, Computer or
Information Systems Manager, Computer Network
Architect, Hardware Design Engineer, Electrical or
Electronics Engineer, Computer Architect, Computer
and Information Research Scientist, etc. They can
also go into teaching and research in a university or
college.

6. • With the advancement of computer systems and
fields like machine learning, deep learning, the
Internet of Things (IoT), and robotics, there will be a
high demand for computer engineers with advanced
degrees in the market, especially internationally. This
also means there will be a high scope of career
advancement and top salary packages for computer
engineers with a Master's degree. The projected
growth rate for various jobs is between 5 and 19
percent.

7. Do I need a Master's in Computer
Engineering?
• The Bachelor of Engineering (BE) or Bachelor of
Technology (B.Tech) in Computer Engineering degree
helps students develop a foundation and essential
knowledge necessary for computer engineers to get
entry-level jobs.

8. • However, a Master’s in Computer Engineering,
which allows students to develop advanced
knowledge and skills in computer engineering, will
open up job opportunities in larger companies and
bigger projects with higher salaries. But a Master's
degree is no cakewalk, and hence students must
carefully evaluate themselves to determine whether
they are fit for it. An aptitude and passion for
research and a subfield in Computer Engineering are
two of the most important things needed to pursue a
Master's degree in Computer Engineering.

9. • MITAOE is a top Engineering institute in Pune. It is a
part of the reputed MIT Pune Group. It is an
excellent choice for computer engineers who are
looking to pursue a postgraduate degree for global
expertise in research, teaching, and technology. MIT
AOE offers a PG program in Computer engineering,
which is an M.Tech degree in Computer Engineering.
The course duration of the MITAOE M.Tech in
Computer Engineering program is for two years, and
each academic year is divided into three trimesters.

10. • The degree concentrates on disciplines like
Management System, Advanced Data Structure &
Algorithms, IoT Technology and Applications,
Machine Learning, Cloud Application Development
and Management, Data Analytics, Information
Retrieval, and more.

11. • The curriculum is also very research and project-
oriented as students are required to complete
project work at the end of every trimester up until
the fourth semester. The fifth and sixth semesters
are dedicated entirely to project work, helping them
develop hands-on knowledge and the necessary
skills demanded by the competitive job market.

12. • With strong analytical skills, problem-solving
skills, and experience, the graduates of the
MITAOE postgraduate program are well-
equipped and are competent competitors in
the industry that can demand top salary
packages in the best global firms.

13. Conclusion
• Maharashtra Institute of Technology (MIT) is the
first private Engineering Institute to be
established in the city of Pune, Maharashtra. It is
one of the premier institutes for Indian and
international students offering Undergraduate
and Postgraduate courses in Engineering,
Management, Medicine, Pharmacy, Design, and
so on.
• MIT Academy of Engineering (MITAOE), Alandi,
Pune, was established in 1999 under MAEER by
the honorable Prof. Dr. Vishwanath D. Karad,
Founder and Executive President of MIT Group..
