How is a 5-year dual degree in mechanical engineering with manufacturing engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar?

FF
Firdausi Faruqi Posted On : August 14th, 2020
CSE from Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar (2019)

By looking at the recent trends in the Indian Economy, it can be observed that there is a lack of opportunities for Mechanical Engineering students. The demand for Mechanical and Civil engineers has dropped down and the recruitment is usually in Non-core companies. Only students from Top-Tier colleges are placed in great companies where they move on to become managers.

About the 5-year Dual degree at IIT Bhubaneshwar, the student life is good there although there are strict rules and restrictions. The average package offered at this IIT was 11.44 LPA and the highest was around 39 LPA in last year’s placement drive. The college provides for a special internship program and a summer training program.

Hostel life is good and the hostel rooms are allotted on a single room occupant basis. The food provided is decent. Faculty are very well versed with their subjects and easily approachable as they come from different IITs. the sports facility is fine and many events also take place around the year. The Labs provided are modern but insufficient if compared to other old IIT’s.

Jadavpur University and IIT Bhubaneswar – both have their merits and demerit. The following factors may help you make a better decision. 

IIT Bhubaneswar, like other IITs, bears its brand image. Hence, it has the reliability of a well-connected social environment. The politics, suggested assumptions about substance abuse, etc have tarnished the reputation of JU a bit in recent times.

But, Jadavpur University has an unbeatable placement record. According to last years placement highlight, all 60 students from CSE got placed. The average salary package offered was 19.96 lakhs per annum. 

IIT Bhubaneswar has an academic culture compiled of some of the top students of the country. These students come from a broad variety of background. Hence, you will have the opportunity to socialize with a colourful assemblage. JU is a state university, so it does not offer the same. Even so, Jadavpur University is in a metro-city and has better sex-ratio. This draws them distinct advantages. 

Jadavpur University offers hostels, guest house, library, daycare centre, health centre and JU employees’ coop credit society limited. There are ten laboratories and a library in the CSE department.

Are all sports & lab facilities available in IIT Bhubaneswar?

NR
Naman Rastogi Posted On : August 13th, 2020
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar

IIT Bhubaneswar is transferred to its permanent campus sometimes back. Most of the laboratory facilities for the UnderGraduate (UG) Programme are efficiently equipped as well as fully functional by now. Every school has its own laboratories that they can access.

If we talk about the Sports facilities, they are yet in a developing stage which is rather disappointing for many of the students. Apart from these facilities, other functional facilities include a gym, volleyball court, basketball court, and badminton court (both in Mahanadi [B] and Subarnarekha [G] hostels). Although, there are also temporary grounds for football, cricket, and athletics. 

For all the non-functional facilities, the college is taking measures to make them functional soon so that the students can engage in extracurricular activities along with academics.

How do you think can a quizzing club be introduced in IIT Bhubaneswar?

PP
Parth Panwar Posted On : August 13th, 2020
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar

It is good thinking to open a quizzing club in IIT Bhubaneswar as it will be helpful for the students who want to make a career in the government sector. Last year, some quizzing sessions were introduced at Madanpur Hostel in which there are lots of activities to participate and people participated in those activities.

In today’s scenario, most people are preparing for government services jobs majorly UPSC, SSC, Banking, etc, and many others. It is, therefore, a great platform so that the students have the potential to keep the society alive. The most important thing is that it will not only focus on campus placement but they can also learn about clearing government jobs. It will be helpful for each and every student who will enter the college or left college.

IIT Bhubaneswar is ranked 9th in 2019 as per India Today among the government colleges. Choosing IIT Bhubaneswar depends on the various factors according to the choice of the students.

The campus is newly built which is expanding with the establishment of new facilities. The hostels are good and newly constructed with mostly single occupancy. There are well-experienced professors along with better placements. The presence of nearby railway stations makes it accessible to other locations.

The campus residents will be charged a very minimal amount by the institution for making it convenient and affordable for them. Initially three vehicles will be operational in the campus placements and in future the services will be increased as per requirements.
