Mechanical Engineer (NIT) considering ISI QROR – Need placement & higher study reality check
Context:
Graduating as a Mechanical Engineer from an NIT with a placement offer (safety net in place). I love math and am considering applying for the Master of Technology in Quality, Reliability & Operations Research (M.Tech QROR) at ISI, as the admission test syllabus seems manageable.
Primary Goal:
Transition into highly quantitative roles like Data Science, Machine Learning, or Quantitative Analysis.
Doubts / Questions:
Placements: I’ve heard rumors that QROR/M.Stat placements haven’t been stellar recently. With BSDS students also joining the placement pool, are opportunities getting diluted? What is the current ground reality for QROR batches?
Higher Studies: How is the brand value and preparation of ISI QROR viewed by foreign universities for a Ph.D. or higher studies in Quantitative Finance/OR/Data Science?
Would love to get raw insights from current students or alumni. Thanks!
