What should I choose: IIT Roorkee metallurgy or NIT Warangal/Trichy CSE?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

IIT Roorkee, NIT Trichy, and NIT Warangal are well-established institutes in India. The scope of metallurgy is comparatively lower than that of CSE. IIT Roorkee mainly concentrates on textual learning and does not give the students exposure to practical learning. They are using the practice of mugging up the lessons without having a clear understanding of the topic. The placement is very poor here; the students from the metallurgy department usually end up in data analytics and coding.

So CSE at NIT Warangal and Trichy would be a better choice.

Which college is the best for an MBA, Alliance University Bangalore, AIMS Bangalore, or Jaipuria Institute of Management?

SR
Sandip Roy Posted On : June 17th, 2021
MBA, IIM A (2018)

It is best to avoid all the three colleges if possible. If you have the chance then you should definitely ignore all the three colleges listed here and aim for a higher percentile in the next CAT.

Look at MBA as an investment. Not only it is expensive but also time-consuming. So if you are not getting job security or a well-paying job after spending lakhs of rupees on your degree, then the education may not be worth it. It will become just another degree in your CV.

So score well in CAT or get a good percentile in MAT (97 percentile or above) so that you can get some tier-I MBA colleges such as -

  • Sydenham Institute of Management Studies, Research and Entrepreneurship Education (SIMSREE)
  • PUMBA – University of Pune
  • XIME Bangalore
  • BIMTECH Noida
  • Great Lakes Institute of Management (GLIM), Chennai
  • IFMR – Graduate School of Business – Krea University

Apart from those above you could also try for these institutes-

  • XIME Kochi
  • NIBM Pune
  • IMT Nagpur
  • MDI Murshidabad (growing rapidly)
  • IPE Hyderabad

Try to score high in your next CAT or MAT exam to secure admission in some of these colleges listed above and keep Alliance, AIMS, Jaipuria as your last resort.

Which is better: chemical engineering in BITS Pilani or mechanical engineering in PEC Chandigarh?

SG

Studied at Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh

Choose what interests you. If you are interested in Chemical Engineering, BITS Pilani is a great option. It offers decent academics and exposure. Core Chemical companies and oil companies recruit from the institute. Schlumberger, ONGC, Reliance, etc. are among the major recruiters for the branch. BITS Pilani placement highlights show the average CTC to be around INR 12 LPA for Chemical Engineering. 

But if you are interested in Mechanical Engineering, you should choose PEC Chandigarh.

Which one should I prefer: IIIT Bangalore ECE, IIIT Lucknow CSAI or IIIT Gwalior CSE?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : October 10th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

CS and EC are very different branches. You need to decide which branch interests you more.

EC is about electronics and how the different electrical components communicate with one another. It involves a lot of Physics. It only involves a little programming. CS, on the other hand, is all about programming. It mainly uses logic and math. 

If you are interested in programming, CSAI from IIIT Lucknow is the better choice. AI/ML is in huge demand in the industry as most things will be automated in the future. Placements and coding culture are top-notch at all these colleges. Students from IIIT Lucknow and IIIT Bangalore perform well in competitions like ACM ICPC. 

All these colleges are good. You should make your choice based on your field of interest.

Which engineering college is better, northeastern NITs, IEM Kolkata, or KGEC?

RC
Ritambhar Roy Chowdhury Posted On : April 16th, 2021
Studied M.Tech in Civil Engineering at IEM Kolkata (2019)

When choosing an engineering college, it is always somewhat better to have your options, but at the same time, stick to government-run institutes. That clarifies most of the issues here. NIT Silchar and NIT Tripura are both prominent institutes to choose from. 

Few others, unlike them, are mostly on the higher lists of popularity because they have their name inculcated as NIT. However, you should never feel left out if in any case you do not get acknowledged on grounds of NIT. The other best possible option, just second to NIT, is KGEC. 

Although, there is a short list of people who actually end up recommending any private institutes in lands of West Bengal.

If you anyhow need to get enrolled in any of the private institutions, then going to institutes that are deemed well known, such as SRM, KIIT, Manipal can be some other good options from your pocket.

Categories

NITs (North-Eastern)

IEM Kolkata

KGEC

Course Fee (approx.)

5.42 lakhs

5.83 lakhs

1.06 lakhs

Placement Percentage (overall)

60-75%

85%

70-80%

Highest CTC

23 LPA

20 LPA

15 LPA

Average CTC

7.8 LPA

9 LPA

5 LPA

Recruiting Companies

Tech Mahindra, Amazon, TCS, Microsoft, Infosys, etc.

Byju's, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, Airbus etc.

TCS, EY, Amazon, Accenture, Wipro, etc.

If not any of them, then choose going to COMEDK or try enrolling in other renowned private colleges in Bangalore, some of which are RV College of Engineering, PES Institute of Technology, BMS College of Engineering and MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology.

There is another information yet to share which is, unlike BITS-Pilani, BIT-Mesra and MIT-Manipal,IEM is known to admit various students through management quota which is rather not the case for many other prestigious private engineering institutes.

But, as mentioned earlier, getting to choose from a handful of governmental institutes are better than the latter. However, options other than those few are opened as well.

Which college is a better for an MBA, IBS Hyderabad or BML Munjal University?

TJ
Tripti Jaiswal Posted On : February 13th, 2023
BBA from Institute of Technology and Science, Mohan Nagar, Ghaziabad (Graduated 2022)

Honestly, I would recommend anyone to go to a new but dynamic college rather than a reputed and old college. This is because the new colleges are at par with today’s advancements be it the curriculum or the facilities. The brand IBS was indeed popular Ron e but recently due to its increasing batch size and other shortcomings, it has lost its charm. So for me, it’s BML Munjal University. The points below will explain further why I recommend this school so strongly.

  • BML Munjal University functions under the mentorship of Imperial College Business School, London which is among the top 20 in the world. This enables the students to grab the opportunity to attend Imperial College.
  • The faculties are young and extremely learned
  • The University was founded by Hero Group making almost every aspect of the B School industry relevant.
  • Apart from a regular MBA, they offer MBA in Accounting and an MBA in Business Analytics. The MBA in Accounting and Finance is in association with KPMG and focuses on Forensic Accounting and Corporate Fraud. MBA in Business Analytics is in association with IBM where IBM is helping with the training and infrastructure part which is industry relevant.

All these factors make BML Munjal University a far better choice than IBS Hyderabad.

Why are IIM A, B, and C valued over FMS, Delhi when the difference between the fees are so high?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : July 5th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

It is true that a person’s caliber can in no way be judged from the Business School that they have graduated from. In practice, however, things work very differently.

The general assumption is that if a candidate has secured a top rank in one of the most challenging exams and studied one of the top curriculums in the country, then they are really good in their field.

IIM A, B, and C have been around for a very long time and its graduates have carved a niche for themselves in the corporate world. Most companies in India and many abroad have IIM A, B, and C graduates in top positions. The alumni spread the goodwill of these institutions in silicon valley and other parts of the world, leading to international repute. These institutions are ‘brands’. An IIM A, B, and C brand opens numerous opportunities for you.

Judging IIMs based on ROI solely is not wise. Most IIM graduates end up paying their loans in a period of 3 to 5 years. Also, keep in mind that salary does not remain constant, it keeps increasing each year. Even if you take a loan to fund your MBA, it will be worth it.

If you get the opportunity to study at IIM A, B, or C you should grab it at the earliest.
