Great! Pascal was big at that time as the language which used structured programming .

That is one way to see its impact. But serious researchers read the paper to see its merit if they are in the field. But administration can use citations and h index in some cases. These metrics only make sense for senior researchers who have done their PhD and may be going for associate professor promotion or awards.

Many people do their MTech from iit and nit etc. Do you mean central universities or Jntu vtu etc. these are popular for bachelors degrees. Also if we compare with MS in a typical American university then iit iisc nit Iiser iiit bits would be comparable

Most welcome

True!

@@Drganguli once upon a time when I was a pre_engineering major, I took a single semester course in FORTRAN and loved it.

Good idea

Amazing!

Many universities were giving M Phil. It was a favourite degre for many in arts and humanities. But I think it is now going in favour of the PhD

Yes even many large companies in engineering have in house fortran codes which work well based on the formulas implemented. Changing them to Python would be an onerous task and bugs introduced may lead to disasters.

You can include one or two book. Mostly people like to see recent journal papers here as that gives the proposal more credibility

Yes a PhD proposal should be about 2 pages long. It should have a brief introduction, a few references cited in the introduction and the plan for research work. The research plan is about one page, the rest one page. See this video How to Write a Strong PhD Research Proposal? th-cam.com/video/zclQbCEjEwY/w-d-xo.html

I am glad it helped you. One can become a research scientist with studying science.

Great!

You have to apply for postdoc fellowships first. Later if you don’t get you can try to postdoc jobs advertised by individual professors and labs. Foundation Postdoc vs Research Grant Postdoc! th-cam.com/video/A_IbH0WE4Fg/w-d-xo.html

True

Yes C is the way to go after fortran. But C was developed as a systems programming language and numerical computing people often moved to Matlab in the university setting.

Very interesting. Thanks for your valuable comment

@@Drganguli You are welcome. I hear good stories over rust. I should look into rust as a C++ replacement maybe.

Great!

True

@@Drganguli thankyou sr

You are most welcome

Papers are enough for postdoc jobs. Communication skills to make it through the postdoc interview are of course needed. And 3 letters of reference of which one must be from postdoc advisor Communication skills for career success! th-cam.com/video/kb2LKitbR9c/w-d-xo.html

@@Drganguli Will you suggest someone to do something in conjunction to publishing papers like attending conferences or going for research internships if that person wants to develop a research career?

@@academicgladiator Certainly conferences are very useful. Even seminars and thesis defense and lectures given in a university by visiting experts. These let you have easier access to knowledge than journal papers.

@@Drganguli thank you sr

Scholarships for direct PhD in USA after BTech in India is rather difficult. A better idea would be to do a masters degree and then apply for PhD. You can do the masters at IIT’s or iisc. You may need to give gate for that. Get Free Master's Degree at IIT and IISc using GATE! th-cam.com/video/FfhZHuwmzWY/w-d-xo.html Alternatively you can do Masters in Europe or Asia on one of the funded masters programs and then apply for PhD in USA.

@@Drganguli thank you

Lot of job opportunities for electrical enginéer MS students​@@Mainak_Goswami

Yes

True but fortran still survives in national labs and large defense companies

Matlab needs license which many companies don’t want.

Yes I always thought that will be the outcome. As there are so many PhD graduates already out there.

It will be hard to do MTech while working as the course load is high and the students are fresh from gate preparation and so may handle the course well. You may end up getting bad grades unless you study hard. This is about full time MTech where you have to take many courses. But part time degrees may be there where you can take reduced course load and take a little bit more time to finish the degree

Can you suggest a best mtech program for working professionals??

Interesting that fortran is being used in finance. I thought it was a science and engineering thing

Yes these are likely to happen. If you want their help then they will be part of your life. But if you choose to be aloof then you can do so. But the problem may be that the dorms or apartments may have lot of Indians who will befriend you

​​@@DrganguliIs it common even in the Scandinavian countries? Some people said that they don't even know their neighbours.

@@academicgladiator That is true for the natives there. But Indians will find each other and hang together. But you can stay aloof if you want, even in India.

​@@DrganguliAnother Question which is rarely asked: Do Indians from different states communicate in english or hindi when they meet in Europe or USA? If you know some scenarios, please drop a line.

@@academicgladiator North Indians use Hindi and they use English only when they talk to South Indians. Many language groups make friends only among themselves nowadays which in my opinion is unfortunate. There may be little interaction between Telegu and Gujarati groups for example. But in USA the second generation Indians come together again and converse in English as they are grouped together in terms of race and religion

Yes you can certainly apply. Papers are only part of the process. The field also matters as there is more funding in certain areas of research. There is also a zoom interview in some cases.

Amazing that they were teaching fortran in junior high school!

@@Drganguli Yes! Can you imagine a school district allowing 9th to 12th graders to get near let alone give us permission to run the machine? I majored in comp sci in college and was hired by IBM.
