What is it like to be at IIIT Hyderabad?

Aparna Das Posted On : August 1st, 2023

One of my friends shared her experience at IIIT Hyderabad. He had a rather smooth experience initially but something made him change his mind.  

He is a dual degree student and has no interest in his Masters' stream CSE and thus is finding it very challenging to cope with his thesis. Additionally, the administration had tightened up on the rule for mandatory publication as a prerequisite to graduation. He did not like the sudden change in the rules especially for 5th, 6th, 7Th year students.

What is the best distance learning MBA Program: Symbiosis Pune, IMT Ghaziabad, NMIMS or IGNOU?

SL
Shivangi Luthra Posted On : October 15th, 2022
MBA, MCA in MBA in Human Resource Management & Master of Computer Applications, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

IGNOU has an international reputation because it serves over 3 million students and offers over 200 courses. It is the world's largest university. In the long run, their curriculum is worthwhile, and there are very few negative reviews on IGNOU MBA online.

Symbiosis, IMT, and NMIMS each have their unique value and attractiveness in terms of employment. Regardless, if you end up learning the subject to the best of your ability, the university name serves only as decoration on top of the dish.

MBAs are well-suited to leadership roles such as managing a team. Your decision to work in your chosen field of engineering, where you will learn concepts such as how a company hierarchy works, its SOP, customer service, and so on, is a good one. This will provide you with a fresh perspective on the value and/or necessity of an MBA.

Work experience combined with an MBA from a government-approved university will be extremely beneficial (SMU is a big no-go area). Work experience always provides more comprehensive and valuable knowledge than books and degrees. Pursue excellence, and success will always follow.

What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at University of Delhi?

HJ
Hosanna James Posted On : September 24th, 2021
B.com (Honours) from University of Delhi (2020)

My sister graduated from Ramjas College in 2017. Here is her insight. 

  • These three years are very important. You will meet a variety of people, so choose your friends wisely. The best thing about DU is also its diversity and inclusiveness. 
  • Don't think DU will make you something. You will make something out of yourself if you're capable.
  • Get to know your seniors, faculty, friends. These relationships will help you with your goals in the future.
  • Join Societies and participate in activities that excite you. Don't join just for certificates.
  • Be aware and figure out what you are really passionate about by gradual exploration.
  • There will be various seminars and workshops. Attend them to increase your awareness. 

However, don't forget to enjoy your college life. Being a topper is not what you should aim at, rather learn things ahead of the syllabus.

How was your 1st day at NIT Jamshedpur?

VT
Vinayak Thakur Posted On : April 20th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology Jamshedpur (2019)

One of my friends studied at NIT Jamshedpur. I will share his experience of his first day at college, this might give you a basic idea about the college.

  • On his admission’s day which is ten days before the commencement of class, he strolls through campus looking at computer lab conditions, which is good. All computer labs are fully air-conditioned. 
  • Document verification took some time before finally getting admission into the college. Students were also helpful on campus who helped him find a Xerox shop. 
  • His college day started by arriving at the campus at 11 am. 
  • He was allotted a hostel while visiting there. All the hotels looked new after renovation. 
  • His room has three other students sharing the room with him. Their beds were small though. Each one of them allotted their own open cupboards. 
  • In the mess, there was a long line of 50 boys for food. The menu has rice, vegetables, etc. The mess food does not taste good, and he kept on complaining about it. 
  • He then visited the college building, which is over 50 years old and has not renovated since. For registration, he went to the Metallurgical department and made some departmental friends.
  • His 1st day was not a good day for him, but he sure learned how to compromise, how to communicate, and how life starts outside a comfort zone. 

Now he doesn’t forget his wallet, not shy away from talking with strangers, and doesn't complain about food quality. 

Therefore, the first day of college may not be what one would be expected. But you will surely learn a lot of things. With time you will become responsible, good in communication, and learn how to manage yourself.

According to some of my friends studying at IIT Ropar, the starting days of college consists of an Induction Programme under ISMP (Institute Student Mentorship program) in which the students are allotted a mentor for any inconveniences. 

  • These mentors would be guiding the students for everything and would make students know the campus and would introduce them to the seniors. 
  • Followed by this, there would be an orientation program common to all departments which would introduce students to the demo sessions of various clubs like dance, dramatics, music, fine arts, etc., and the sports facilities. 
  • Apart from these, the coding, robotics, aeromodelling sessions would be held. 
  • Along with these, there would be night jamming sessions and fun activities to help students get mixed up. 
  • The seniors are all good and helpful. 
  • The student can showcase all his/her talents in the IIT Ropar’s campus on a cultural night. 
  • The environment of the college is decent and outstanding.

There is no sort of ragging which takes place in IIT Ropar. There is an Anti-Ragging community on the campus of IIT Ropar with the motto of "Ragging is crime and reward is jail". If any situation of ragging arises, he/she can directly contact the mentor or any other teacher. No kind of ragging takes place in IIT Ropar.

What is the cut off rank to get btech in CSE in MPSTME,NMIMS through NPAT?

AG
Anita Guha Posted On : January 25th, 2022
studied at Mukesh Patel School of Technology Management and Engineering, NMIMS

It entirely depends on the vacancy. There is no such cutoff system. If you can secure a good rank, i.e. within the top 300, then you can go for the CSE branch. Otherwise, it entirely depends on the vacancy. If you get a rank of around 1500-3000, and you want  IT or CE, chances of getting admission are low, as most students choose these courses. However, in the counseling, they give a form in which you can fill out your choice of branch and if there are any vacancies later, you can upgrade your branch.
