In this article we will talk about GATE exam syllabus. Engineering is one of the most important career options in today's time.


 


And the students related to the field of engineering would definitely know about the GATE exam.

 

Almost all the students who are pursuing or have completed their engineering studies prepare for the GATE exam.

 

The name of GATE exam in engineering also comes in the toughest examinations of the country.

 

It is important for the students who prepare for GATE that they should have a good knowledge of all the important things related to this exam.

 

And in this they also need to have complete knowledge about GATE exam syllabus.

 

Here in this article we will go through the GATE exam syllabus very well.

 

Know from which topics questions are there in GATE exam and which topics are included in them?

 

Before talking about the syllabus, let's talk about GATE exam a little bit, then the full name of GATE is Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering, which is conducted at the national level.

 

On the basis of GATE exam, admission is done in IITs and IIMs for post graduate engineering, ie MTech etc.

 

Just like there is JEE exam for 12th class students. Similarly, there is a GATE exam for the students who are or have done graduation in engineering.

 

Through the GATE exam, one can get into the most famous engineering colleges and famous companies of the country.

 

GATE exam is mainly for engineering graduate candidates.

 

Now there are different subjects in engineering, all those subjects also appear in GATE exam and they all have different syllabus.

 

Such as Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering etc.

 

Whatever core subject the student has in engineering, he has to appear in the same subject in the GATE exam as well, and some questions from Mathematics etc. may be common.

 

Now let us look at the GATE syllabus according to these different subjects.

 

Subject wise syllabus of GATE exam

Altogether 29 subjects are included under GATE exam.

 

In which all the subjects coming under engineering are included.

 

Apart from this, a subject like quantitative aptitude is common in every subject.

 

The list of all the subjects covered under GATE is as follows –

 

Aerospace Engineering (AE)
