Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is
an all India examination that primarily tests the comprehensive
understanding of various undergraduate subjects in Engineering and
Technology. GATE is conducted jointly by the Indian Institute of
Science and seven IITs (IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, IIT Kanpur,
IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madras and IIT Roorkee) on behalf of the National
Coordination Board – GATE, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of
Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India. The GATE score of a candidate reflects the relative performance level of a candidate. The score is used for admissions to various post-graduate programmes
(eg. M.E., M.Tech, direct Ph.D.) in Indian higher education institutes
with financial assistance provided by MHRD and other Government
agencies. The score may also be used by Public sector units for
employment screening purposes. Read more about GATE.
