Is the B.Tech from Jain University Bangalore any good? What is its reputation in Bangalore?
A friend of mine who studies at Jain University says the faculty is decent but if you are mainly looking for placements, there is no guarantee. There are quite a few IT jobs available but since Bangalore is the Silicon City of the country, you will probably not get placements in core areas.
From what information was shared with me, the hostel fees and tuition fees are also quite high. Plus, admission to the university is also given directly by filling up the application form or you can even give the COMEDK, KCET exam or contact the college directly.
Infrastructure-wise, the college is definitely good with five-star facilities in your hostel rooms and Bangalore city to explore. But, you have to pay for almost everything.
You will see a diverse crowd in the college including a few Africans too. However, you will probably not be able to gain industry-relevant skills that might help boost your career. Overall, it is an okay university.

What is the future after you are placed from the NITIE Mumbai (PGDIE)? Is growth better in a mechanical core job or an industrial engineer job?
The Post Graduate Diploma in Industrial Engineering (PGDIE) course offered by NITIE Mumbai is a management-level course. So growth opportunities are very good.
- NITIE Mumbai will definitely offer you a very good opportunity to work with some of the biggest companies in India.
- These companies include HUL, ITC Ltd., Amazon, P&G, KPMG, Deloitte, and many other nationalized and private banks as well as other financial institutions.

Can a branch be upgraded in Thapar University Patiala and UIET Chandigarh on the basis of the first-year CGPA?
I have a few friends at Thapar University, so I can tell you the branch up-gradation procedure at Thapar.
- If you want to update your branch, CGPA is not helpful. But that doesn't mean that you can't update your branch in some way.
- At the end of the first semester, there is a "December exam," which has general PCM plus topics covered in the first semester.
- The institute forms a rank list based on the December examination result. A counseling session for all empty seats in all branches is held based on the ranking list.
- If in the December test two students have the same marks, their JEE rank is considered to resolve the dispute.
In general, one or two students leave each branch, so if you put in the required effort it’s not tough to upgrade your branch.

How is the BITS Pilani Hyderabad hostel?
BITS Pilani Hyderabad has decently constructed hostels with all basic amenities. The majority of students get single rooms while BTech first-year students get double occupancy rooms sometimes.
Adequate cleanliness is maintained and washrooms have hygienic conditions. You will find muddy water because of the recycling water system. As for the drinking water, you will get both hot and cold drinking water.
A typical room inside the BITS Pilani Hyderabad hostel comprises basic commodities such as a bed, a chair, a table, a whiteboard, a big cupboard, and storage space. Students get access to 2 charging points one near their bed and the other news to their study table in addition to one LAN port. BITS Pilani hostels are not air-conditioned but you will adapt yourself to the heat pretty soon. For reference, I am attaching a picture of my friend's room in the Ganga Bhavan hostel.
