The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Haldia Institute of Technology has established a nice reputation for itself over the past few years. 

  • The professors and other members of the faculty for the mechanical engineering department are experienced. 
  • The department also has good facilities for the laboratories. 
  • The teaching methodologies are considered to be above average by a majority of students enrolled in mechanical engineering courses.

Highest CTC 6 LPA
Average CTC 3.2 LPA

What is the scope of Mechanical Engineering in Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Madurai?

AG
Anuj Gupta Posted On : July 15th, 2021
Studied at Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Madurai,Tamil Nadu, India

One of my close friends attends Thisgarajar College of Engineering, Madurai, and here is her insight into the Mechanical Engineering branch.

  • Despite the college being government-aided, the faculty is stellar with really good experience. All of them either have a Ph.D. or are pursuing one.
  • The department has also collaborated with TVS and the courses are now being restructured as per industry requirements. TVS starts monitoring students in the first year so that by the 4th year, they are ready to work there.
  • The labs are also fully well equipped with instruments like UTM, injection molding machines, and CNCs.
  • The alumni network is also quite strong. There are frequent get-togethers and meetings held at the department.
  • The teachers are also well renowned nationally in their fields of work. You will also receive support for higher education from the college for pursuing MS, ME, Ph.D., MBA, etc.
  • Despite the geographical drawbacks, the college has many top companies visiting for placements. But, due to the lack of mechanical industries around the college, securing an internship or work experience may prove to be difficult for you.
  • The courses offered might be a little restricted. Due to this, it might prove a little hard for you to secure a specialization in a specific field.
  • There are also only 120 students per batch of mechanical engineering admitted to the college. Because of this, it is quite tough to find like-minded people who share your interests and would like to work with you.

Thus, despite being a good college, every place has its pros and cons. In the end, it boils down to your interests and if the course curriculum fits your requirements.

Which branch should I opt from the CUSAT, mechanical engineering or safety and fire engineering?

PS
Praduman Singh Posted On : July 20th, 2021
B.Tech in Safety & Fire Engg from Cochin University Of Science and Technology (2020)

It depends where your interest lies. But if you think according to the placement opportunities, safety, and fire engineering is much more preferred due to the high demand in the industry. The faculty is also well-qualified along with the quality education that the college provides. But safety and fire engineering deal with a lot of safety responsibilities so, if you are opting for this branch be prepared for that.

However, if you don’t want to be confined in one specific area then go for Mechanical. As it is a core branch, you can get many specializations later.

So, choose a branch according to your interest.
