studied Master of Computer Applications at Bangalore University

There are a lot of things that Bangalore University students can do on weekends. 

  • You can do certifications in your domain. For Commerce students, there are many certifications in accounts and finance which are recognized by Govt. like NISM, etc. 
  • Science students can learn coding in C, C++, Java, cloud computing, and other emerging software. These skills will be helpful during placements. 
  • You can learn new languages like French, German, Korean, etc. There is a foreign language division in central college BU. 
  • You can prepare for competitive examinations like CAT, GMAT, XAT, etc. If you are planning on going abroad for higher studies, weekends are the perfect time to prepare for IELTS, TOFEL, etc.

Other than studying you can explore the city. There are few historical places. You can attend events like theater, play, concert, etc at Chitrakala Parishad. You can go on long drives, check out some cafes. If you are interested you can also spend time getting associated with NGOs to help the needy ones.

The CSE department of Acharya Institute of Technology is quite good, considering the overall educational facilities, hostels, and environment. A friend of mine attended the institute. Here is his review regarding the facilities provided by the institute.

  • Comparing with other departments, the CSE department is quite decent, with good laboratories, clean classrooms, and overall good infrastructure.
  • The environment inside the campus of Acharya Institute of Technology is quite good for students to study peacefully. Candidates having doubts about the internal environment can clarify the same from internal faculties.
  • There is an almost equal ratio of North Indians and South Indians inside the campus.
  • The hostels provided by Acharya Institute of Technology are good, compared to hostels of other institutes. There are double and triple sharing rooms, which cost around Rs. 1.1 and Rs. 1.47 lakhs per annum respectively. Inside the rooms, the institute provides tables and chairs to study. There are medical facilities available inside the campus.
  • For internet services, the institute provides LAN for laptops only inside the rooms. There is WIFI connectivity at the corridor, where most social networking and online shopping sites are blocked. But, these sites can be accessed through LAN after 5 PM.
  • Talking about the food in hostels, there is a 3-time meal system- breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Overall, the food is considered to be good, with both rice and chapatti in lunch and dinner. Sumber is a must.

Hope this gives you a brief insight to the institute.

How is the social life of students of IIIT Kottayam and IIIT Bhopal, and where do they chill out during weekends?

Pranjal Singhal Posted On : March 9th, 2021

My friend is currently studying at IIIT Bhopal and they usually get loads of assignments and projects which keep them really busy. All the IIITs are quite known for their hectic routine and getting 8 hours of sleep daily also becomes a chilling session at times.

Although you may not experience a super-happening college life which is often shown in movies. But you can still find good friends and enjoy the peaceful environment there at the campus.

However, my friend has listed some weekend chilling options you might want to know:

  • You can head to DB City Mall, New Market for shopping.
  • The advantage of being at IIIT Bhopal is you also get exposure to places like Lalghati, Jain Mandir, and Karond.
  • Also, they now have a Training and Placement cell of MANIT where you can chill more often.

At the end of the day, engineering is never easy and always has a packed schedule. It all depends on how you manage to keep studies and enjoyment balanced without compromising in either of them.
