Which is better: NIET or Government Engineering College Mainpuri?
Government colleges in India are preferred by students because of their reputation and how easy it is on the pocket as compared to private colleges for engineering. The fee structure at GEC Manipuri for BTech programs rounds off to 1.05 lakh whereas the same course at NIET will cost somewhere between 1.85 to 3.5 lakhs.
Apart from that, NIET is known to offer funding and scholarships to students in order to help them with their tuition fees. It also facilitates summer internships for the top 3 students with an outstanding academic record. GEC Mainpuri on the other hand does not offer any grants or scholarships and students are required to pay their full tuition amount.
Let us have a look at the facilities provided by both the colleges:
- Infrastructure: Being a private institution with higher funding, NIET’s have better infrastructure and more updated campus facilities like smart classrooms, a well-structured library, Wi-Fi accessed campus, and hostels. GEC Mainpuri has a large campus but lack in technological facilities like providing well-equipped practical labs or library services to students.
- Placements: NIET observes a higher placement rate of 75% as compared to GEC Mainpuri. It also offers recruitments by top core companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Infosys, and IBM to students who are eligible for placements. GEC Mainpuri being a relatively smaller government college does not oversee placements from any core companies and mostly observes placements from IT and software development companies.
- Courses: NIET offers a wider range of popular engineering courses as compared to GEC Mainpuri. It offers a total of nearly 30 programs across graduate and undergraduate degrees whereas GEC offers a total of nearly 12 programs within the engineering stream.
- Location: NIET students are well connected to metropolitan life and are free to experience student life on and off-campus. The GEC Mainpuri campus is in a comparatively remote location which is not very well-connected to the city life.
Both the colleges offer a detailed and well-structured program in terms of the curriculum but differ in their teaching approach, campus facilities, placements, student demographics, and rankings. Keeping the above-given factors in mind, students can make their choice based on their requirements and preferences.
Which one is better SIBM Bangalore or Great Lakes Chennai PGDM?
Both SIBM Bangalore and Great Lakes Chennai are equally good when it comes to fees, faculty, and Return Of Investment (ROI).
Though, SIBM Bangalore is the better choice due to the greater number of companies visiting the campus during placement.

Placement (Winner- SIBM Bangalore):
- Bangalore is the greatest IT hub, having companies of every scale, small to large. But SIBM Bangalore has seen some additional small scale IT companies visiting the campus.
- Great Lakes Chennai is also a decent institute for MBA and PGDM, in terms of placement. But some of the companies limit their recruitment to Bangalore colleges only.
- Accenture, Deloitte, Wipro, etc are some of the large-scale companies which recruit in both the colleges. However, in SIBM Bangalore, there are more chances of Tier 2 companies.
Other highlights:
- For freshers and candidates with less work experience (less than 2 years), SIBM Bangalore is always preferred.
- The brand name of Symbiosis adds to the fame and candidates get preference in companies worldwide.
Therefore, in terms of factors related to exposure and a greater number of companies in placement, SIBM Bangalore is definitely the better choice.

Which is better for an MTech in electrical engineering, NIT Trichy or IIT Guwahati?
The choice of the institute for pursuing an MTech in Electrical Engineering depends on what you want from your Masters.
- For those on the lookout for placements, NIT Trichy has a good placement scenario, especially for Electrical Engineering. They are even better than some well-known IITs in M.Tech, especially Power Systems.
- However, if you are willing to pursue a career in research after MTech (Ph.D.) then you will have to give great importance to the choice of the institute. An IIT is best suitable for prospective Ph.D. holders as they have global recognition too.
Ultimately, the better institute is a matter of preferences and career prospects.
Where should I enroll, NIT Surathkal (mining engineering) or PES University (computer science)?
There is no clear winner in this comparison. If you are interested in Mining Engineering and want to learn fundamental and core technicalities, then NIT Surathkal will be better. As an institute, NITK is better than other engineering colleges in Karnataka. It offers better academics, exposure, facilities, and campus life. For Mining, NIT Surtahkal placements are great. Coal India visits NITK for recruiting students. The average CTC received by the students of this bench is INR 5-6 LPA.
But if you aren’t particularly interested in Mining Engineering, then you should choose CSE at PES University. In the current industry landscape, CSE offers better placements with cushy salary packages.
Which MBA college is good for a general category student, FMS or XLRI?
The question is highly subjective. Both FMS and XLRI are the leading institutions for management studies. Any student who gets an admission offer from any or both institutions should be proud of themself.
The qualifying exam for MBA at FMS New Delhi is CAT. The CAT cutoff 2022 for the FMS MBA program was 98 percentile (general category).
The qualifying exam for XLRI PGDHRM, PGDBM, and PGDM courses is XAT. The XAT 2022 cutoff was 92 percentile.
There is a provision for reservation at FMS according to the rules set by the University of Delhi. However, XLRI is a private institution and therefore, has no provision for reservation.
For the HR domain, XLRI is the best business school in India. FMS is famous for its Marketing and is best known as the Marketing Campus of the country. FMS is a good choice for Finance as well. In fact, for specializations other than HR, FMS stands at a higher position.
You should also consider the location, infrastructure, and campus of the two before making your choice. Location-wise FMS is situated in New Delhi and thus might be more attractive to many.
XLRI is the oldest business school in India (founded-1949), and FMS is the third oldest (founded-1954). For a PGDBM in HR, go for XLRI. The fees, however, at XLRI are much higher than at FMS.FMS fees are very affordable. In terms of ROI, FMS is in a better position.
You can Check the course fee for various management courses at XLRI. Also, Check the course fee for FMS New Delhi.
You can thus make your choice based on your goals. Getting into XLRI is easier for a general-category student. Overall, whichever institution you end up in will groom you into an expert in your field.
Which should I prefer, CSE at IIT Guwahati or electrical (5 years) at IIT Bombay?
I always find comparing two branches very illogical because the entire purpose of branches is to cater to the interests of different people. One stream might be good for you but not for the other and vice versa.
An electrical engineer works with impressive technologies like microprocessors or communication systems. A computer engineer on the other hand achieves great things through his computer. It’s better to read about machine learning classification.
Some students prefer judging colleges on the basis of the kind of environment they offer. Both IIT Bombay and IIT Guwahati have a great academic environment and offer excellent exposure. Both the colleges are good in all aspects like placements, location, and academics. Don’t follow the trends and standards set by society and follow what your heart says!

For a masters degree in Environmental Science Central University of Punjab (CUPB) will be a better option. The research works conducted there are really good.
The department has good motivated students and a highly experienced faculty. Even the lab facilities are good enough for education purposes. In Central University Punjab there is one more term added to the course, that is technology.
