Comparing the mechanical branches of SPCE and VJTI, VJTI is the definite winner among the two, considering almost all factors like branding, faculty, peers, placement, etc. Mechanical Engineering is one of the best branches of VJTI.

The points below give a brief overview of VJTI and state several reasons supporting the choice.

• The brand name of VJTI is much more reputed than SPCE and is considered to be a badge for engineering aspirants. VJTI is much more known to foreign universities and institutes than SPCE.
• The average IQ of students from VJTI is much more than that of SPCE, as evident from students’ reviews of the two institutes. Most likely, students in SPCE have a lower thinking ability than that of VJIT.
• In VJTI, there are clubs namely SAE, Inferno, SRA engaged in a lot of technical, cultural, and social interactive activities among students.
• Mechanical Engineering of VJIT has some of the best teachers in the institute. Some of them, for example, Dr. Tendolkar, Dr. Deshpande, Dr. Kulkarni, etc, have exceptional skills in teaching their respective fields.
• In VJTI, there are very few teachers who are not quite good. But, in SPCE, the mechanical engineering branch actually lacks a sufficient number of good teachers, some of whose lectures are sometimes confusing.
• As usual, VJTI tops in terms of placement of the two institutes by a high margin. Most companies offering jobs in Mechanical Engineering at VJTI offer excellent packages to students. In SPCE Mechanical Engineering, the placement scenario is average, with a lesser overall placement percentage.

Therefore, SPCE is in no way comparable to VJTI, the latter being a much better institute in terms of all considerable factors.

There are a number of criteria that Thapar University students need to fulfill in order to pass. A few of them have been listed below

• Students have to maintain a minimum of 75% attendance including tutorials, lectures, and labs. Students who don’t fulfill this criterion face detention and have to repeat the course next semester.
• Students have to score 33 marks after combining tutorials, practicals, quizzes, and semester exams. However, they will still pass the subject if they score less than 33% at the End of semester or any other exam.
• Students scoring between 33 and 27 in one subject, and more than 33 in others, get a D grade without repeating the course.
• Students scoring between 33 and 30 in two subjects, and more than 33 in others, get D grades in both subjects
• Students who fail to fulfill the above 2 criteria get an E grade in a subject and can appear for an exam, the marks of which are substituted as END SEM marks. If your marks become more than 33, then you get a D grade in the subject,
• If a student fails to secure more than 33 even after this exam,  then they have to repeat the subject in the next semester and they will be getting a D grade on passing the subject.

Hope this helped you!

I will describe my experience of hostel 10, through which you’ll get an idea of the hostels at MANIT Bhopal-

B.Tech freshers are allotted Hostel 10 at MANIT. The hostel is divided into four blocks- A,B,C and D. Each block has 32 dorm rooms, two washroom complexes, two water coolers, an internal courtyard, a mess hall, two common rooms, a guest house, and a T.T. room. 

The freshers stay in blocks C and D, and blocks A and B are given to senior B.Tech students. Block C and D are isolated and fenced from the other two blocks. All the rooms are well maintained and in good condition. Due to a shortage of rooms, three students share a single room, instead of two. 

The hostel wifi gives decent connectivity. If lucky, you’ll have access to good wifi speed in your hostel room, otherwise, you’ll have to manage with your own internet connection. There is no LAN connectivity in the hostel at present. You can use electrical appliances as no checking takes place. If you get a back facing room in C block, you’ll have access to a serene balcony view. The common rooms are used for DJ nights, Ganesh Chaturthi, etc. We also play holi on the premises. The night view from the rooftop is mesmerizing. 

Overall, the hostels at MANIT Bhopal are spacious and well maintained.
