Is the MDI Murshidabad worth joining keeping in mind the brand tag of MDI Gurgaon and is the highest package mentioned in report inflated? Can we trust their reports?

AB
Anish Barjatya Posted On : February 22nd, 2023
Analyst at DebriN Synergy (company) (2015–present)

This answer is based on the experience of a friend who completed her MBA from MDI Murshidabad. The points of comparison between MDI Gurgaon and MDI Murshidabad are mentioned below

  • The curriculum is almost similar to the pedagogy adopted is also very similar 
  • Most of the faculty is from MDI Gurgaon, IIM Calcutta, IIM Shillong, and other prominent B Schools
  • The infrastructure and facilities are decent enough to meet the requirements of a B School.
  • The institute provides a decent digital base that has major databases that helps in conducting basic research related to industry and academics. Yet this library is not as fast as MDI Gurgaon.
  • Comparing the placements is not justifiable as the duration of establishment is highly varied. But a general view ensures that MDI Murshidabad is going as per the trends in the industry.
  • Many national and international companies approached MDI Murshidabad students with decent job offers.

Be it a B School of the MDI family or the IIM family, it’s your efforts that enable you to get successful. Being serious about learning and having the desire to do better helps develop a better business sense which is in dearth these days.

Is MBA in HRM a good option in terms of academics and placements from the new IIMS? I have heard that only IIM Ranchi is good for HRM.

SA
Shrishti Arora Posted On : January 19th, 2023
MBA aspirant

Many of the old and new IIMs do not place as much emphasis on HR jobs or electives as XLRI and TISS. If you took a few HR electives and graduated from an old IIM, you may still be able to secure a decent HR job. However, attending XLRI or TISS would likely be a more practical choice for someone interested in a career in HR. New IIMs, including IIM Ranchi and IIM Indore, which now offer PGP HRM programs, tend to have fewer top general management or consulting roles available and almost no great HR roles. 

An MBA in HRM is generally considered most useful from XLRI, TISS, SCMHRD, XIMB, and MDI. If you are considering an MBA in HR from IIM Raipur, Udaipur, Sambalpur, Jammu, Nagpur, Bodh Gaya, Trichy, or Vizag, it may not be the best decision.

How good is MSU Baroda for computer science education in terms of education and placement?

DA
Divisha Agarwal Posted On : December 29th, 2022
MBA from Lovely Professional University (LPU) (Graduated 2016)

MSU Baroda is really good in terms of both education and placement as compared to other Gujarati colleges.

Education 

The workload here is minimal and the no minimum attendance rule makes it easier for students to prepare for other competing exams or work part-time.

Computer Science students are taught 

  • C++
  • Java
  • .net 
  • Python

The pedagogy for Java and DBMS is really good. Anyone who attends the lectures finds it easier to grab the concepts.

Placements

Mostly companies like TCS, INFOSYS, TECH-M, COGNI, and L&T INFO-TECH, visit M.S University during the beginning of the final semester. These Indian Companies offer around 2.9 LPA to 3.5 LPA including variable components.

Apart from this, AMDOCS visits MSU. They offer 4.2 LPA and it is one of the best companies to begin your career with.

Google once visited MSY for placement in 2008.

Some lesser-known companies like Matrix, Investis, etc. also visit the campus for recruitment. They generally offer around 2.5 LPA to 3.0 LPA. Some companies that visited the campus this year are

  1. Oracle
  2. Infocus
  3. Infosys
  4. Tcs
  5. Wipro
  6. Growex
  7. Cognizant 
  8. Oneadvanced

The demand in the IT field surged so much after 2021 that product based companies too now recruit from tier 3 colleges. 

The only drawback you will face here regarding placements is that the faculty does not help you in placements like other colleges. The entire process is handled by the placement coordinator and students itself.

Why do companies like Twitter, Linkedin and others don't come for campus placement in BIT Mesra?

HS
Harpreet Saini Posted On : August 17th, 2023
Studied at BIT Mesra

My brother was a training and placement coordinator at BIT Mesra in the past. He told me that the training and placement cell at BIT Mesra works hard throughout the year to make sure that students are offered top placements from the campus. Despite its remote location, BIT Mesra brings in top IT companies for campus placements. Almost all the top IT companies, barring a few, visit the BIT Mesra campus for placements. 

Twitter and LinkedIn started hiring from Indian campuses quite recently, in 2013. Initially, these two hired students from top institutions like IIT Bombay, which boasts of having the best CSE undergraduates in the country. Other than that, most hirings were done through off-campus processes.

At present, however, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, and LinkedIn are some of the top brands that visit the BIT Mesra campus for placements. Some other top brands that visit the BIT Mesra campus include- Directi, Walmart Labs, Intuit, Goldman Sachs, Epic System, Flipkart, Uber, Vmware, MAQ software, DE Shaw, Codenation, Samsung, Paypal, NVIDIA, Visa, SAP labs, Sprinklr, among others.

If you are a pre-final year student at BIT Mesra, I would suggest you refine your coding skills to get placed in top IT companies with a good package.

How is the MTech ECE placement from IIT Kharagpur?

AS
Atul Sharma Posted On : March 27th, 2023
Works at Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP)

MTech placements for the ECE branch at IIT Kharagpur depend a lot on your specialization. 

Those under VLSI and VIPES get placed with great packages and there are almost cent percent placements for them. VLSI students are usually offered core jobs in contrast to VIPES which offers both core and non-core jobs. There are a lot of software profiles offered to VIPES students. 

Communication also has decent placements but not the same certainty as VLSI. Here companies like Qualcomm come for placements and some even are offered software profilers
