Wanted to know compensation after master in material science in energy/semiconductor sphere....(no work ex, only intenships) (just a student deciding a future ;) Top uni in india- IIT + northwestern/Georgia tech (masters) Would really appreciate any input!!
Which IIT ? For example IIT B is wayyyyyy more different compared to IIT Patna
IIT Kanpur - its top 5
Undergrad college shine wears off after masters here in the US. That applies to IIT as well imo. Doesn't matter if it's B, K, KGP etc. I hear MBB is the only place where the IIT tag helps in gaining some advantage but that's not your industry of interest.

Tbh it is peanuts. I am a Materials science graduate barely making 110k in california
After how many yrs?
Got my masters in May
IIT-R grad here .. I am not in semiconductors but feel free to DM to connect or chat further.
80k in Midwest to 120k in bay
Do you recommend taking up any particular specialization? Battery or pharma
Or semiconductors or some other field
What specialization should i choose instead?
Why is every h1b some "IIT" undergrad who does their masters in the US. Lol
That EB2 green card oppšš
No one gives a eff about IIT in USA. Your Gatech degree will have some value as itās among top 10. It all depends on how well you can leetcode and crack offers !!
Those who got into IIT were simply good enough with solving Physics , Chemistry , Biology & Math problems at a much faster rate than other candidates. Thatās all it means . It doesnāt say anything about your Computer Science or Programming skills . If you belong to some downtrodden caste and scored an IIT seat, then you will get screwed badly in USA. š¤£
Some of the top B-school profs, VC, etc. think very differently than you. Grapes were sour, I guess.
And just another dipshit who thinks the IIT tag is gonna fetch him something! ššš

If compensation is not good, what do you plan on doing? Switch industry?
Idk man....just looking for some direction...maybe....only reason I'm thinking of going in battery is the future potential
Nothing beats software - but stress is high and replacement rate is high as well
