GATE score can be used to get admissions in foreign universities like National University of Singapore (NUS, Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and some other German universities as well. Here are some details I dug up for you all on how you can use you GATE score to get admissions at one of the universities: NUS.
NUS has 2 types of graduate programs as follows:
1. Coursework based program.
2. Research oriented program.
Coursework based program is similar to M.tech in India. Admitted students have to attend coursework lectures and clear semester exams. This is aimed at providing additional skills to working professionals. This is a full time program, but the classes will be held during morning and evening hours. Admission to coursework based program is NOT competitive and you don't need any Letter of recommendations. [Please check website though].
The research based program is like an introduction to PhD. This is a full-time course, wherein you attend lectures which are relevant to your research area. Some courses might be compulsory, so do check that. The admission to this program is competitive. You will need strong letter of recommendations, your profile should scream an aptitude for research ad good GPA.
For coursework based program GRE is optional, but do give GRE to give some weight to your application as when the number of applicants is high, they may filter using GRE scores. For research oriented programs you can submit either GRE score or GATE score. TOEFL is mandatory for both coursework based and research oriented program. If you are applying for PhD. you will be taken in for research based program. At the end of the program you can decide whether to end your masters, or proceed to PhD.
The coursework based program is NOT funded for INDIAN students. Only the students from ASEAN [not to be confused with Asian] countries will get funded. As for the research based program, all students will be funded.
