Is IISC Bangalore good for cyber security courses? What are the courses it offers in cyber security?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : July 21st, 2023

Do not choose IISc Bangalore for Cyber Security courses if you wish to work in the industry and not go for research. IISc does not offer a specialized course that is customized for security professionals.

Instead of looking for Cyber Security courses at IISc Bangalore, you should go for the Amritapuri Campus of Amrita University. It is one of the best places in India for you to learn Cyber Security. My brother did his Master’s degree in Cybersecurity Systems and Networks from there. 

You will learn practical implementation over there. All the courses are taught completely in English so you won’t suffer due to the language barrier. 

Apart from the regular topics like Network Security, Wireless Security, Cryptography, and Digital Forensics, you will also learn topics outside of the curriculum, like Web Exploitation, Binary Exploitation, etc.

The placement scenario is decent and both private companies and government sectors offer decent packages to the students. Government officials recruit students and take them for live projects. You should choose Amrita University, Amritapuri Campus, and pursue a Masters’ in CyberSecurity from there to get a good start in this field. IISc Bangalore is not the right choice for a career in Cyber Security.

Is IIIT Hyderabad really best in MS or M.Tech in CSE?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : July 31st, 2023

It's difficult to say if IIIT Hyderabad MTech or MS CSE is the best or not as it's a matter of personal preference. What might be best for you, may not be for someone else. So first, you have to identify your interests and goals. Usually, IIIT Hyderabad is suitable for 

  • People who want to pursue high-level research in CS
  • People who are determined to pursue a career in CS and want to polish their CS skills and fundamentals
  • People who are just after the IIIT and CS tag

Every institute has something or the other to offer so comparing them isn't right. Instead, look at the bigger picture and understand what you are looking for in your degree and which institute will serve you best.

I cleared XLRI hr cutoff and have 94.242 percentile. What are the further steps and my chances of conversion?

SC
Shubhangi Chaudhary Posted On : June 9th, 2021
PGDM from Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (2018)

Last year my brother tried for conversion, so I think sharing his experience might give you a clear idea.

  • You must prepare well for general questions such as why MBA, why HR, your strengths and weaknesses.
  • GD-PI rounds at XLRI would send a set of questions to the shortlisted candidates. These must be answered carefully because the interview may be based solely on these questions.
  • Also, if you answer them correctly, you have a good chance of presenting yourself to the interviewer in a favorable light.
  • The GD process would be based on very conventional topics.
  • If you have 2+ years of experience, your interview will be based on it.
  • Prepare thoroughly, not only for the technical aspects of your job but also for the functional aspects.
  • Prepare 2–3 of your favorite or most important engineering subjects if you are an engineer (the same goes for other disciplines as well).
  • Keep up with current events and, most importantly, prepare your views on them.

Once the interview shortlists is released, the shortlisted candidates usually form a WhatsApp group to prepare for the GD-PI. Find similar groups on the education network and join them if you get a call.

The Chances of Conversion are possible if you get a call. A good XAT score certainly helps, but before, people have simply cleared the XAT cut-off and made it to the institute. Now you have to stand out among others.

What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at MAKAUT?

ra
rimjhim arora Posted On : February 2nd, 2024

From my personal experience of studying B.Tech at MAKAUT, here are some tips for freshers at this college- 

  1. The curriculum at MAKAUT is age old, and you’ll be only taught the basics. So instead of just focusing on the syllabus, spend time learning online courses from platforms like Coursera and Edx, and obtain certifications in important areas. 
  2. Give utmost importance to active programming, projects and real work.
  3. Do not depend upon your college for placements. Instead, upskill yourself through internships, research work, competitive programming competitions, hackathons, conferences, etc. 
  4. Work hard from day 1, so that you can secure a good college for your higher studies (if you want to pursue MS, Phd, MBA, etc.) Good colleges do not necessarily mean IITs or IIMs. Instead, it means that the college gives you ample facilities and opportunities to grow in your field.
  5. Take good care of your physical and mental health. You’ll be disappointed with a lot of things on campus, but make it a point to never give up.
  6. Aptitude is important, but more important are technical skills. Your hiring company will seek employees who have a grasp of data analytics, machine learning, AI, natural language processing, etc. 
  7. Whichever branch you study, give importance to mathematics and statistics, data-structures and algorithms. 

These are some tips from my end. I hope you follow them and have a memorable time at MAKAUT.

I have calls from IIM L, K, New IIM's, NMIMS, IIFT, MDI, IIT-Mumbai, NITIE. What should be my order of preference among these colleges?

SG
Shelvy Janki Gupta Posted On : August 20th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak

It is suggested to reach out to students in these colleges who have a similar profile to yours. This will give you a fair knowledge of the type of companies that visit the campuses.

Do not put your faith in an average package as there is no guarantee that you'll get that much. You can even get a package that's below average.

  1. If you're offered IIFT Delhi, take it. But if it's Kolkata, you'll have to think about it. IIFT Kolkata doesn't have a nice campus and the hostels are far away. When you have a full-fledged campus life, the MBA experience is always superior.
  2. Choose MDI or IIM K if you are interested in Sales & Marketing or General Management. Choose NITIE if you're interested in Operations, Supply Chain, or Information Technology.
  3. NITIE, MDI, and the new IIMs are in no way comparable. The former two are unquestionably superior. Take a look at how many FMCG visit MDI and NITIE.
  4. IIT-B (SJMSOM) has a strong reputation even among IITs. The other IITs are on a lower level than the above-mentioned ones.

Go for NMIMS as only your last option. Although many good companies visit this campus, the large size of the batch makes it difficult to grab good offers. Furthermore, their fees are on the higher end of the scale.

Why must we do a two-year bond service as an all-India open category MBBS candidate in CMC Vellore?

A
Admin Posted On : May 3rd, 2024

Though a 2-year bond may seem undesirable for an MBBS student at CMC Vellore, it is quite fair. AFMC has in place a 7-year bond period. In addition to this, several state medical colleges have a bond period as well.

I completed a 2 year bond period after my MBBS from CMC Vellore in 2017. The bond period is a great time for learning. It transformed a fresh MBBS graduate like me into a clinician/surgeon. It is the perfect time to decide on MD specialization

During my bond period, I worked for 2 years in a secondary hospital where the patient profiles were very diverse. The hospital I worked at receives patients with MIs, DKA, Strokes, PUOs, CKD, RTAs with polytrauma and head injuries, etc. 

By the end of my bond period, I had received so much exposure that I knew which PG specialization I wanted to opt for. It is much better than sitting at home and mugging books. Practical knowledge is essential in the field of medicine. 

My experience has helped shape me as a clinician. Thus, I would suggest you do not regret choosing CMC Vellore because of the 2-year bond period.
