The Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is an All-India examination administered and conductedin eight zones across the country by the GATE Committee comprising of Faculty members from IISc,Bangalore and other seven IITs on behalf of the National Coordinating Board, Department of Education,Ministry of Human Resources Development.
The GATE score/rank is used for admissions to Post Graduate Programmes (ME, M.Tech, MS, direct PhD)in institutes like IIT and IISc, etc. with financial assistance offered by the Ministry of Human ResourceDevelopment. PSUs too use the GATE scores for recruiting candidates for various prestigious jobs withattractive remuneration.
The door to GATE exam is through previous year question papers. If you are able to solve question papersin access of 10 years, you are sure to clear the GATE exam, and open new vistas of career and learning.
The Civil Engineering GATE 2020 book from IES Master offers detailed topic-wise solutions for the past33 years question papers. The emphasis is clearly on the understanding of concepts and building upona holistic picture. So as you finish a topic, for instance, Strength of Materials, you will find all the previousyears’ question papers with detailed explanation under that particular topic.
The approach has been to provide explanation in such a way that just by going through the solutions,students will be able to understand the basic concepts and will apply these concepts in solving otherquestions that might be asked in future exams.
Every care has been taken to bring an error-free book. However, comments, suggestions, and feedbackfor improvement in the future editions are most welcome.
