Is it possible to branch change in the University Department colleges of Anna University after the first semester or year?

PT
Pragya Tripathi Posted On : December 28th, 2022
Studied at College of Engineering Guindy, Tamil Nadu, India

No way. Anna University does not permit you to switch branches for any reason. You must leave college and re-enroll in the course that you wish to pursue.

To begin, keep in mind that CS is not a core subject, but rather a study of technology. As a term, technology refers to a technique or methodology developed based on scientific principles for the application of such scientific principles in real life. As a result, CS technology is only used in other core streams such as mechanical, automobile, and civil engineering. Many innovations in the mechanical engineering field are equipped with CS technologies, demonstrating that such innovations are created by mechanical engineers and facilitated by CS engineers.

If you are truly interested in computer science, you will learn a variety of programming languages and apply them in mechanical engineering fields such as engine automation, computer-integrated manufacturing, and so on.

  • For the first year 16 credits will be from foundation courses. Other credits will be from your elective courses.

How are the boys hostels for first year undergraduates at MANIT Bhopal?

VP
Vaibhav Patwari Posted On : November 8th, 2023
B.Tech. Computer Science and Engineering, Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology (MANIT), Bhopal (2020)

As a B.Tech fresher at MANIT Bhopal, you’ll be allotted Hostel 10. Here are the pros and cons of this hostel-

  • Location- The classes for freshers are held in NTB (new teaching block). NTB is 1.5 kilometers away from H-10, so you’ll have to walk around 6-7 kilometers daily. Cycling is the best way to travel from H-10 to NTB, and back.
  • Availability of basic necessities- The student corporate store inside the hostel will meet most of your necessities. 
  • Mess- The mess serves decent and well balanced meals. But you’ll soon get bored of the mess food, and begin to dislike it. 
  • Sports facilities- Both the blocks have a table tennis room. The hostel has badminton and volleyball courts inside it. You can play cricket in the hostel compound.
  • Internet facilities- The entire hostel is equipped with wifi connectivity. The internet speed depends upon your room, but normally it is 1 mbps. LAN facility is not available in the hostel.
  • Network- Jio signals are quite weak, but Airtel works fine.
  • Washrooms- Each floor has two sets of washrooms. Geysers aren’t installed in the bathrooms, so you’ll have to bring your own immersion rod (it is not allowed, but no checking takes place). 
  • TV room- The hostel has a tv room, but it is hardly used by anyone.
  • Security- H-10 is heavily guarded by security guards. In the first 2-3 months, the security is exceptionally tight. So you need not worry about ragging.
  • Rooms- The rooms are in good condition. They were built for two occupants. But because of lack of accommodation, each one is shared by three students.

Overall, the first year hostel is quite decent. You’ll enjoy your stay at Hostel 10 of MANIT Bhopal.

What are the criteria for a branch upgradation at DTU, NSIT, and IIITD?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : August 23rd, 2023

Instead of branch upgradation, I would like to call it branch change/ transfer. As an alumnus of IIITD, I can tell you about the procedure for branch change in my college-

  1. CSE, ECE, CSAM, CSS, CSD, and CSB are the six branches available for branch transfer.
  2. Because some courses start differing from 2nd semester onwards, the transfer takes place after semester 1.
  3. After semester 1, the admin office sends a notification to all the students along with a form in which they can highlight the branch to which they want to get transferred.
  4. Your JEE Main rank plays no role during the branch transfer. Instead, your CGPA decides your fate. Few courses, however, have a grade requirement (B- or above accordingly).
  5. Every branch can see an influx/ outflux of 10% of its original strength. For example, if CSE originally had 120 students, 12 can enter it and/or leave it for that batch.

This is the process for branch transfer at IIITD. I would suggest you also talk to the seniors and refer to the official website of IIITD to see if any new changes have been made to this procedure.

Also, to find out about branch changes at NSUT Delhi or DTU, I would recommend you talk to the alumni and administration of both these colleges.

What is the IGNOU credit system?

RM
Raj Maurya Posted On : October 30th, 2022
M.A. in economics from Indira Gandhi National Open university (IGNOU) (Graduated 2017)

IGNOU follows the credit system. Credit has nothing to do with grade marks or rank. It is somewhat related to the subjects you opt for. Credit is like books. 1 book = 1 credit (mostly)

If you opt for a subject that has for example 4 credits, then you are required to study 4 books of that subject. After passing your exams you will get 4 credits. You can understand better through the below-mentioned example:- If you are willing to get a degree in BA from IGNOU, you need to score 32 credits each year. This equals 96 credits for the entire course. 

There are three categories from which you have to choose the courses to complete 96 credits. Following are the categories:

  • Foundation courses - 24 credits

  • Elective courses - 56 or 64

  • Application Oriented courses - 8 or 16

The table below has specified the credits of some fundamental courses.

The table below mentions some major foundation courses and their credits:

What is the present scenario at MANIT, Bhopal? Is it worth joining, or should I opt for other NITs taking admission in the same rank?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : November 8th, 2023

Earlier MANIT Bhopal suffered from problems like ragging, poor faculty, and more. But from the time that our new director, Dr. N.S. Raghuwanshi joined the college, things have changed for the better. 

He recruited new and better faculty members, and made many other changes in MANIT. The current condition of our college is quite good. New infrastructure is in place, including new hostels. As far as ragging is concerned, the scenario is different now. At present, the senior junior interaction is good, and seniors help freshers as much as possible.

I would recommend you join MANIT Bhopal, and assure you that you won’t regret this decision.
