Which is better, 'KJ Somaiya - Electronics engineering' OR 'Vivekanand - Electronics and Telecommunication engineering'?

SK
Shivani Krishnamurthy Posted On : August 31st, 2021
Studied at Swami Vivekanand College, Mumbai (Bombay) (2016)

Having known some people studying in these colleges, I can tell you that both colleges are really good in their own ways. But, you should consider the following before you make any decision:

  • KJ Somaiya has slowly improved over the years and now is considered much better than Mumbai University (MU).
  • Vivekanand is known to keep track of attendance which is not the case with KJ Somaiya.
  • If you are considering doing Electronics, you should know that Electronics and Telecommunications has an upper edge.
  • The exams at KJ Somaiya are tougher than MU. This is because MU repeats a lot of previous years’ questions.
  • You will get a 5 day holiday in MU before a semester paper. At KJ, you will only get a day or two. Therefore, at KJ, your exams will be hectic.
  • The semesters end pretty quickly at KJ as opposed to MU. 
  • MU students only get one month’s leave after a semester ends. For KJ, this leave is for 2 months. 
  • You can utilize this time to look for internships and other activities that will help strengthen your resume.
  • Electronics has a few subjects like digital communication which might overlap with telecommunications.
Categories EE at KJ Somaiya ETC at Vivekananda (MU)
Course Fee 13.50 lakhs 4.52 lakhs
Highest CTC 12 LPA 9-10 LPA
Average CTC 5-8 LPA 4.5 - 5 LPA
Recruiting Companies L&T, TCS, Phillips, Schneider Electric, etc. JP Morgan, Tata Power, Mercedes, Microsoft, etc.

Both the colleges are even. It will finally depend on where your interests lie and what you would like to do. Find out if you are more interested in telecommunications or just core electronics, then choose accordingly. 

Electronics will teach you more about electronic components, circuits and other basic ideas that might be required in general electronics. Telecommunications will only give you a deeper understanding of communication technologies.

Which is better- IEM in Ms. Ramaiah or EEE in Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering?

SR
Sushmita Raj Posted On : September 17th, 2021
Studied at Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering ,Bangalore (2016)

After doing some research online, I would suggest not to go for IEM at Ramaiah, until and unless you are extremely interested in studying that particular subject. Since it will not pay you anything and you will eventually wind up in the same category of mass placement at one of the service-based companies. 

Double-check the topics you will be studying. EEE is usually less exposed than IEM, yet EEE is regarded as the most complex branch to be studied. 

The majority of EEE / ECE / other branches receive job offers from Infosys, HCL, Accenture, or Tech Mahindra.

Parameters IEM at Ms. Ramaiah EEE at Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering
Tuition Fees INR 3.47 lakh  INR 10 lakh
Placement Percentage 95% 70%
Highest Package 13 LPA 15 LPA
Average Package 7.6 LPA INR 8 LPA

So, what is the point of learning core Electronics if all you have to do at the conclusion of your engineering degree is code? If you want to build a career, think seriously about the branch you select. Regardless of the institution you attend, I believe EEE is far superior to IEM. Pursue EEE only if you are truly passionate about the subject.

How different Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies would be if it had a campus like NSIT, DTU, IIT?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : August 23rd, 2023

Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies is a highly reputed institute and is the dream college for many commerce students. However, it’s a bit lacking in terms of infrastructure and remote location. So if the college gets a campus like NSIT, DTU, and IIT, then it will surely be one of the best colleges in the country as its only flaw will be taken care of.

Many changes will be made in the college if its infrastructure is improved. Events that were earlier held outside the campus will be conducted on the campus itself. Moreover, it will stop receiving the backlash it gets because of its poor infrastructure and become a preferable choice for many.

What is the true average placement package in MDI Gurgaon?

RD
Renato Diago Posted On : February 21st, 2023
MSc Finance, Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (2019)

You should actually stop focusing so much on just average placements. My friend is a pass out of MDI Gurgaon and he says your admission to MDI is more than enough to grant you a high-paying job. So rest assured about that part and focus on what the program is teaching and gain as much knowledge as possible. Some highlights from the glittering life at MDI Gurgaon are

  • You meet students from versatile backgrounds and cultures that add to the overall learning experience.
  • The curriculum is so rigorous that it prepares you for the worse situations 
  • The initial months are pretty strenuous and you might find it hard to get a proper sleep
  • The much-needed exposure to the corporate world is brought in by industry experts who conduct guest lectures that are very enlightening and interactive.
  • Additional exposure is sought through corporate talks, live projects, and tech fests.
  • The curriculum is designed in such a way that every student acquires the analytical skills to question and fulfills all the requirements of the corporate world.
  • The course structure is updated regularly to cope with the ever-changing external requirements
  • The B Schools have an elaborate lush green campus and enjoy easy access through Metro.

All these aspects are as important as placements so considering only average placements is not enough to judge a certain college. Change your primary focus from placements to learning. Being a top 10 school, I am sure MDI Gurgaon won’t disappoint you.
