This Blog was very useful for me because my main focus is to pursue Masters in automobile engineering from RWTH aachen only or you can say my first preference. The only thing that i am concerned is my CGPA. I am in 6th sem and my aggregate is 70% so i am preparing for GRE and GATE both. Will it make any difference in increasing my chances of admit in RWTH if i successfully secure good marks in any of one or in both.What else should i do to cope up my low CGPA impact.

The above blog was really very helpful for me but i have seen in certain websites that to get inti RWTH aachen for an indian student in ME, it is mandatory to have a good GATE score.
But I am preparing for GRE.

I have published my civil engineering research papers in IJASRE and IJERAT journals.Are these good journals to publish papers?

Hi Shardul,

Publishing research papers in international journals is one way to display your research experience in your field of interest. You can also boost your profile by creating research projects of your own, pursuing internships at relevant companies, taking up a job for a couple of years etc.

The main idea is to ensure you have relevant & sufficient practical exposure to your field.

However, do keep in mind that schools like MIT & Stanford are usually involved in heavy inter-disciplinary research work. So, it will be good for your profile to first check what the department of Chemical Engg in MIT/Stanford is currently working on and pursue projects accordingly.

See you there Shardul! 🙂

Hi Gaurav,

Yes, these research internships will surely count as long as it is relevant to your field of interest for MS.

You can add to it by creating/designing projects of your own or even publishing papers based on what you’ve learnt.

If you’re planning on working for a couple of years, then that can help too.

Good Luck, Gaurav! 🙂

Hi Zulfiqar, It's always best to clear all the backlogs you may have in any subject before you apply to universities abroad, especially for countries like Germany where universities place a high emphasis on GPA. However, since your backlog is not pertaining to a core subject, it need not be mentioned in the SOP. Instead talk about why you're interested in pursuing this course, how it can help you achieve your long term goals etc. You can read more about how to write a great SOP here --> https://www.greedge.com/blog/top-10-mistake-sop/

Hi Ashwin,

Switching majors is definitely possible but a little tricky. For example, in the US, certain universities accept students of different backgrounds but may require you to take certain pre-requisite courses that you may have missed as part of your UG.

Since you’re still in college, take up projects that are related to your future field of interest. Also, ensure you have some relevant practical experience in the automotive field through internships. This will help increase your admission chances along with a persuasive SOP that talks about why you’re making the switch, what motivates you & why you’re best qualified for pursuing MS in Automotive Engg.
