Difference between Master of Engineering (ME) and Master of Technology (M Tech):-
There are the difference between Master of Engineering (ME) and Master of Technology (M Tech) these difference could be understood by the following points:-

• M.E. is more knowledge-oriented while M Tech is more skill-oriented.
• M.E. is usually designed for students who plan for employment upon graduation and who are already in the engineering workforce while M Tech. is designed to produce Research Engineers who can get the position of “Technologist” in the industries and research institutes.

• M.E. emphasizes in-depth concept clarification of facts while M.Tech. emphasizes practical exposure of conceptual knowledge.
• M.E. is mostly preferred by private universities or self-affiliated colleges. For instance, IIT while M.Tech. is offered by colleges affiliated with various universities.
• M.E. is a conventional term used for majorly theory-based study while M.Tech. involves the use of technology and other aided stuff.

Eligibility:-

To pursue a Master in Engineering \Technology the minimum eligibility is a Bachelor degree in Engineering \Technology in any specific field of technology \engineering. There are few colleges that seek minimum aggregate marks to give admission in their college, which falls between 45% to 60%.

Admission Process:-

Admission to pursue M. Tech\Engineering is usually given on the basis of an entrance test conducted by the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). However, there are few colleges which conduct their own entrance examination or some college give admission on the basis of marks obtained in Bachelor of Technology \Engineering.
Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) conducts an integrated entrance test for IITs (Bombay, Delhi, Kanpur, Guwahati, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee, etc.) and the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore. Apart from these prestigious colleges, there are various other colleges that give admission in their colleges on the basis of marks or rank obtained in GATE.
