Can we leave IPM (IIM Indore) program after first 3 years?

RS
Rita Sarkar Posted On : August 24th, 2021
Studies PGDM at Symbiosis Institute of Business Management, Pune, 2021

One of my cousins is a student of IIM Indore. Let me share his experience which might give you a basic idea. 

He says that you can definitely leave the IPM program after the initial 3 years, but it will not reap benefits at the end of the day. Your choice can allegedly become futile.

You can undeniably leave following the initial 3 years of the IPM program, but because it is an integrated 5-year course, you are not supposed to receive any sort of certification or testimonial after the completion of the first 3 years of your study program. 

You will significantly have to leave with an IGNOU degree and 3 years of IPM education that is not vitally certified or even recognized. Leaving a course midway will definitely not be helpful, since the only accessible certification you will go on to receive is from IGNOU. It can possibly be extremely difficult to further acquire admission in any other renowned B-school following your dropout. Thus, leaving mid-course is not highly recommended.

How is it to be a training officer in NTTF? Will it help in the future to get in core industries (mechanical)?

AC
Anindya Choudhary Posted On : September 16th, 2021
Nettur Technical Training Foundation

One of my friends was with NTTF as a Training officer for 4.5 years. During the training, he enhanced his core strength in tool engineering, shop floor basics, design processes, hydraulics pneumatics, and even robotics engineering.

According to him, the best part of the training was that he got to clear his theoretical knowledge and apply them practically during his training. If your basics are clear and you can express them properly then you will certainly get decent opportunities at the institute. 

Currently, he is working with Jindal Steel in a new role. His training from NTTF has helped him prepared for the new challenges that come with the job.

The Practice School is an educational innovation-seeking in linking up industry experience with university instruction. The primary objectives include:

  1. To meet the rapidly changing needs and challenges of a professional workplace.
  2. It enables students to acquire learning by applying the knowledge and skills they possess, in unfamiliar, open-ended real-life situations.

These objectives are achieved by bringing the reality of the world of work into the process of education.

  • They provide students with an opportunity to work on relevant assignments, under the guidance of professional experts and under the supervision of faculty Practice School 1.
  • PS-1 is primarily an exposure-oriented program that is graded for five units as it is an integral part of the curriculum.
  • It is offered during the summer after the students have completed two years of course work.
  • Your allotted PS -1 station and date of joining will be informed by the PS Division.
  • You need to report to the PS instructor and he/she will give you a basic introduction of the PS program, PS Station, and even its evaluation criteria.
  • You will observe what's happening in your PS station and note the key points.
  • You might be required to give a presentation & report based on your observation.
  • You will have a mid-term evaluation and an end-term evaluation.

A friend of mine's PS -1 had his PS -1 station in the Integral Coach Factory (ICF), Chennai. Students were divided into groups of 4 and every batch was given a handout containing dates and shops to be visited on that day.

They were asked to take note of every process on that floor for further reference. My friend got a good understanding of sleeper and EMU class trains. Our documents were verified by an ICF representative and my friend got 6 /10. Overall it was a good experience.

Which course is better salary wise for a civil engineer in NICMAR: ACM or PEM?

KK
Kuheli Khurana Posted On : September 30th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Construction Management and Research (NICMAR)(2017)

NICMAR is a good and reputed college with a stellar placement record. The 2018-2020 batch had over 90% placement percentage with more than 120 companies visiting the NICMAR (Pune) Campus for recruitment. 

Mostly, the companies tend to offer similar packages for ACM as well as PEM. However, what does make a difference to it is the prior work experience of the candidates. So, it has got more to do with the individual capability than the branch, where higher salary placements are concerned.

Placement Opportunities:

  • Placement opportunities in NICMAR for ACM are a little more as compared to those of PEM. 
  • In the 2020 placements of the institute, 571 students from Advanced Construction Management got successfully placed whereas Project Engineering and Management saw 239 student placement.
  • Some of the frequent companies visiting the campus are Tata Consulting Engineering, Wipro Water, Reliance Industries, OYO Rooms, etc.

Do consider all your options before making a final choice. However, on the feedback received from some of the alumni of the institute, I would recommend you for Advanced Construction Management rather than Project Engineering and Management.

I have completed my 12th standard and I am planning to go for an NTTF diploma program which gives a mechatronics diploma as well as a B.Voc degree. Should I go?

Diploma Tool and Die Making ,Nettur Technical Training Foundation

One of my friends graduated from NTTF recently and according to him, if you don't have any government job aspirations then you can go with NTTF.

This is because NTTF doesn't have AICTE approval and you won't be able to apply for government sector jobs. However after diploma chances of getting a job easy than a bachelor that is the only point. 

Since you are getting a diploma from NTTF along with a B. Voc Degree from a reputed college together B. Voc degree is government approved and makes you eligible for government jobs and you will be learning practical oriented skills at NTTF.

How do I contact KIIT regarding admission queries?

SB
Sreemona Banerjee Posted On : September 16th, 2021
B.Tech in Civil Engineering,Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (2016)

Regarding admissions in KIIT, instead of contacting the admission team by phone or mail just pay a visit to the Admission department located in the Koel Campus and they will provide you with every necessary detail on how to get admission through different processes. While asking about the admission procedure, mention your choice of branch and other preferences.

You can get direct admission through direct admission to your desired branch but will cost you a huge amount of money if applying through direct admission. You can also get admission through the entrance exam conducted for it in which the cut-off goes really high. Direct admission will cost you a lot of money so if there’s no financial problem and you don’t want to waste another year then you should definitely go for it.

Do not contact any agency or third party for admission because KIIT does not take admission that way.

Can my branch upgrade at UIT RGPV if I score good in the exams?

RT
Radhika Taneja Posted On : August 21st, 2021
B.Tech from University Institute of Technology, RGPV (2022)

This is one of the most common questions asked by students in their first year at RGPV. Most of these students are admitted based on the score obtained in the CLC round. Due to this, they are only left with 2-3 options(Mechanical or Petrochemical) to avail seats.

It would not be possible for you to upgrade the branch assigned to you during enrollment. If you have a good academic record, the seats are still offered on the basis of vacancy.

For instance, if a certain branch has a seat available for an OBC candidate, then a General category student cannot apply for it. If in any case, none of the OBC candidates applied for the seat only then you can have a chance.

Even if you have a higher score and have no backlogs, in comparison with an OBC candidate having few backlogs, the seat would still get allocated to him.
