I have got admission in IIT Indore electrical. How is the life there at IIT Indore? And how is the Electrical branch over there?

IIT Indore has started operating from its permanent campus. Life here is very fulfilling and vibrant. The first year is light on your academics and you will have enough time to participate in club activities and extracurriculars. The seniors help you in every possible way. Life here is very dynamic and college fests are held in even semesters.

The infrastructure of IIT Indore is relatively new and still needs development. 

The EE branch of IIT Indore has a highly qualified faculty pool with the most learned professors. The curriculum is very challenging with many mathematical concepts. But if you attend the classes regularly you won’t face any major issues. What matters the most is your genuine interest in the branch. 

All in all, maintain a good CGPA and make the most of your 4 years ahead! What matters is how well you avail the opportunities that compare your way.

If you are interested in studying Computer Science or Coding, then you can take admission in IIIT Surat. In the following several comparisons between these two institutes are listed.

Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT)

  1. IIIT Surat is based on the Private and Public Partnership that is PPP. It gets funds from the Government of India, the State Government of Gujrat, and some Industry Stakeholders.
  2. The brand name of IIIT Surat is quite similar to IIT, additionally with the national tag.
  3. IIIT Surat offers admission only in the core branches of Information Technology: ECE and CSE. These two branches also offer high salary packages, so that student here gets higher CTCs than the students of NITs.
  4. It recommends a learning environment to the advanced syllabus that any other nationalized institute like IITs and NITs in EC and CS.
  5. Lastly, this institute has great demand as it follows the inclination towards the development of Digital India; thus, the job opportunities in IT sectors will be increased shortly.

National Institute of Technology (NIT)

  1. The top engineering colleges in India are IITs (Indian Institute of Technology), as it has the brand name of “Indian”, while NITs have a “National” Tag.
  2. Rather, NITs offer admission in most engineering branches, which are not available in IIITs.

Thus, it can be mentioned that IIITs are the best than NITs, specifically if the students want to establish their career in Electronics and Computer Science. Rather, for other branches, NITs are good, without any doubt.

What kind of questions are asked in the Integrated PhD interview for Physics at IISc, TIFR, and HRI?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : July 17th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

IISc Bangalore, TIFR, and HRI conduct interviews for the integrated Ph.D in Physics. My brother appeared for the TIFR NCBS Bangalore interview for iPh.D. in Physics. 

People from different backgrounds appear for the NCBS interviews in various disciplines. 

NCBS has Rounds 1 and 2 for the interviews. Round 1 lasts for 30-40 minutes. Here a candidate’s basics are tested. Round 2 lasts for 75 minutes. It involves more detailed questions which are usually based on the projects or write-ups done by a candidate. 

For my brother, however, the interview went the other way around. During the first round, he was asked questions about his projects. During Round 2, he was asked detailed questions in the broad areas of Physics and Maths. 

The interview experience for each candidate will be unique, whether in IISc Bangalore, TIFR, or HRI. This is especially true for NCBS as their research is not just limited to Physics, it is interdisciplinary. The interviews will help you learn something new. Prepare well for them and enjoy the process.

Which college is better: IMT Nagpur or Welingkar Mumbai or IMT Hyderabad?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : June 3rd, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Among the three colleges, IMT Nagpur should be your choice unless there is any specific need of yours that is being met by any of the other two colleges. IMT Nagpur started in the year 2004 and has a rich legacy in terms of the brand name of IMT Ghaziabad. 

Despite being a relatively new college you could see a few major brand names that visit the college regularly such as Dabur, Bain & Company, Barclays, and Fullerton India. The institute is known for producing great minds in the marketing domain. Now let’s see some numbers to see if the reasoning is sound. Please note that the data may seem at odds with my first statement but average salary doesn't necessarily define the whole story. The batch size of We School is huge which makes Nagpur a better option for you.

Is Sikkim Manipal University good for a B.Tech?

JB
Jiya Banerjee Posted On : September 28th, 2021
Civil Engineering (B.Tech) from Sikkim Manipal University

No, the administration is not particularly the best at Sikkim Manipal University. I know a few people from the institute and here is what they had to say about the institute. 

  • There is a huge locational disadvantage of the university, given the constant issues faced by students. Recently, they have installed an ATM machine.
  • The mess of the institute is not in its best condition. It is run by local people. They do not especially get concerned about the complaints students usually submit. The quality of food is not good even though they take exorbitant amounts of money for the food.
  • The administration doesn’t take the necessary steps to resolve the issues raised by students.
  • According to one of my friends from the CSE department they were not allowed to take industrial training from other companies.
  • The professors are not gonna invest much of their time in your project. However, your project may get rejected for silly mistakes.
  • Recently, in terms of placement, TCS rejected SMIT, while Amazon only hired students as their interns. The placement scenario is not good. 

This is everything that you should be aware of before enlisting at Sikkim Manipal University.

How is NIT Jamshedpur for an MTech?

TM
Tanushree Mandal Posted On : April 20th, 2021
M.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur (2019)

Here are some of the facts given by one of my friends who studied MTech at NIT Jamshedpur.

  • Academics are not very good and thus the pressure is also less in MTech. You should utilize your time and make the best use of it. You can study by yourself. Scoring good marks is not very tough.
  • You should try for IITs. If you don’t have any better option than NIT Jamshedpur then you should go for it. 
  • NIT Jamshedpur is definitely better than some of the NITs. But there are some issues faced by students.
  1. There are still some accommodation-related issues.
  2. There is a lack of instruments in the department.
  3. Machines that are available need maintenance.
  • MTech is only best for the Computer science stream. The other branches are not up to the mark.
  • The students get to sit in most of the well-reputed companies in the placements. Internships are also provided to students. Other branches are sometimes allowed to sit with CSE in some companies.

The environment of students is good. Co-curricular and extracurricular activities are present. The batch size is small. In a nutshell, it can be stated that NIT Jamshedpur is average for MTech.

What is the fee structure in FMS Delhi for MBA

AD
Anand Dubey Posted On : December 30th, 2022
Bachelors of B.COM in Bachelor of Commerce Degrees & Commerce Business Development, University of Mumbai (Graduated 2014)

The tuition Fees at FMS Delhi are one of the lowest and most affordable Business schools in the country.

The Annual tuition fee for MBA-Full Time and Ph.D. programs at FMS is INR 10,480/-year.

For MBA-Executive and MBA-Executive (Health Care Administration) programs, the annual fee is INR 50,000 in two equal installments of INR 25,000 each.

FMS does not have a hostel facility so its students live in the vicinity of the campus in PFs and flats. The monthly expenses range from 15-30k based on your maintenance.

However, the campus hostel is cheap and excellent. The fee for the campus hostel is INR 1400 for accommodation and INR 1200 for food.

So the total fees is very low compared to other top B Schools that are similar in ranking to FMS. Also if you consider the following ROI, FMS students don’t have to really pay much from their pocket

  • Stipend from summer placements 
  • National level scholarships, Merit based scholarships, and Need-based scholarships offer lakhs of rupees in awards and grants
  • A number of opportunities of providing paid consulting to top corporates
  • Working with various firms and organizations on live projects and experiential learning programs. 

All these ROI prove that despite being taught by the most experienced faculty and getting maximum exposure, the fees spent are considerably less.
