Yes, you might be able to get into UIET Chandigarh with a JEE Main rank of 74,000. The most likely branch that you will get into as a general category is ECE, EEE, or Mechanical. Things will change if you belong to a reserved category student and you might be able to score a seat in CSE. 

Here is the latest required cutoff for UIET.

Course 

General Cutoff 

CSE 

945-24246 

6037-46660

IT

24265-35348 

47120-57861 

ECE

25258-42196 

61291-72506 

EEE

25564-51542 

58269-73014

Mechanical Engineering

30059-56234 

72430-84878 

Biotechnology 

51181-85699 

90951-124482 

Based on this ranking, the hostel is only allocated in biotechnology and engineering without the hostel in Chandigarh is costly, so try to get into the hostel. Other than this, some private hostels will give you everything essential, but they come at a huge cost.

Why is the Engineering Design Dept. in IIT Madras considered "different" from other departments?

TB
Tushar Banerjee Posted On : March 28th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras

The engineering design department at IIT Madras is considered different from the other departments and rightfully so. Some features that make this department different from others are

  • This branch has no bachelor's degree and just offers a dual degree program not subject to branch change, unlike other branches.
  • This department has very few common courses like physics and thermodynamics. There are also no interdisciplinary courses, no pH lab and the Math is also different from other departments.
  • The second year has no option for HS or math electives 
  • There is a compulsory linear algebra course, which is an elective for the CS fourth year and is a major drawback for ED students.
  • Very limited electives are offered in consecutive years and a large number of basic mandatory courses for design are offered.

All these points portray the rigor and dynamism of the curriculum. While many may not agree, this course has its own perks also which are sometimes overlooked because of the rigor of the course

  • Graphics Arts: These courses include sketching, shading, painting, clay modeling, and plaster molding and are fun to learn.
  • Product Design labs: These labs impart real-life knowledge of product design, architecture, development, etc. 
  • Versatile electives: The program offers a wide variety of subjects to choose from that include almost everything like; strength of materials, FEM, fluid mechanics, thermo, Microprocessors and controllers, control systems, etc.
  • Internship: The entire 4th year is spent in an industrial internship, and thus students don't have to get any credited internships during summers.

There are two sides to every coin, and so does this department. There certainly are many shortcomings but on the flip side, the perks it offers are often more than enough to attract the best talents.

How good are the hostels of PEC University of Technology, Chandigarh?

NG
Nitin Gupta Posted On : April 30th, 2021
Studied at Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh, (2019)

The hostels of PEC University of Technology are decent in quality, with several factors to consider such as quality of food, wifi availability, quality of rooms, etc. 

The points below give a brief overview of the hostels at PEC University of Technology.

  • The entire campus of PEC Chandigarh is provided with high-speed wifi connectivity. There are occasional crashes in connectivity, which are repaired by the institute, but with a little longer time.
  • The hostels in PEC have two and three shared rooms, as there is an increasing number of students in subsequent years. The Shivalik hostel has both kinds of rooms, but the size of rooms with three-shared accommodation is larger.
  • The room facilities in PEC are quite comfortable and so, it is not a problem to stay in shared rooms at the hostel. There is a newly constructed block in Shivalik which would ease the accommodation of students further.
  • The girl’s hostel has three and four sharing rooms, and it is somewhat uncomfortable to stay in those rooms.
  • The overall quality of rooms is decent, as expected from a property which is 50 years old.
  • The quality of food served in the hostels of PEC is not that good. Students can go to the PEC market where several shops sell good quality food. There are quite a number of dhabas in sector 11 too. Students usually manage their living for the first year and then figure out their comfort in it.

This is the overall condition of the hostels in PEC, which is of average quality, but quite good being an old enough property.

How is NMIMS Mumbai for its management programmes, in comparison to the old and new IIMs and some other good colleges?

SK
Shaunak Kapoor Posted On : February 23rd, 2023
PGDM from SVKM'S NMIMS?, Hyderabad Campus

Comparing NMIMS to the old IIMs like A, B, C, K, I, and L is completely illogical so let’s not do that. NMIMS Mumbai Campus is still comparable to the new IIMs in certain aspects. It is slightly better than new IIMs. Some points that favor this statement are

  • The infrastructure and in-campus facilities are a notch above the new IIMs
  • The peers are passionate learners ready to face life challenges that occur as a result of staying in Mumbai.
  • Another unique aspect of the college is its induction programs and tours that no other college offers. This helps develop students' confidence and provides maximum exposure to them.
  • There is a certain level of harmony between the seniors and juniors 
  • The grading system is strict and one cannot miss a class more than the limitations of the course. 
  • classroom learning is an exciting experience that involves activities and other interesting learning methods.
  • The total marks are a mix of every aspect like trimester exams, attendance, and class participation.
  • Various clubs and committees host cultural and social events. They also hold business events which are very beneficial for students aspiring to become managers
  • When it comes to placements, the average package in NMIMS is higher than that of new IIMs. Also, Mumbai Campus has 100 percent placement opportunities.

Therefore the excellent bridging of theoretical knowledge and practical approach makes it one of the most coveted B Schools in India.

When my term-end examination will take place as I enrolled in MEG 1 IGNOU in the month of July?

SM
Sourabh Mohanty Posted On : October 21st, 2022
M.A ECO from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

Every year, IGNOU holds its TEE (Term End Examinations) in June and December.

The practical and theoretical parts of the same course must be mentioned separately in the exam form, and the fees are also separate for both. The exam fee for both theory and practical courses/papers is currently 60/- rupees.

Typically, a grace period of 10-20 days is also allowed for the submission of examination forms, with a Late Fee of around 1000/- rupees as of now. The exact end date of the grace period as well as the late fee amount are communicated separately.

If the previous examination's results have not been declared, you should include those courses in the exam form. You may also be exempt from paying the exam fee for such courses. At the time of exam form submission, confirm this with the respective study center. Please keep in mind that the assignment portion of the respective courses must be completed before submitting the exam, or your hall ticket for the examination may be withheld. You are considered an Eligible Candidate once you register for a course and complete the semester/year allotted to that course. 

Once you are eligible, you can take the exam in any subsequent TEE (June or December). You can still appear in both TEEs if your course is year-based rather than semester-based. This is a major source of confusion for students enrolled in annual programs.

You may reappear for a paper as many times as necessary to pass it (mind the maximum program duration, however). If the previous examination result was not declared or if you did not receive at least 40% pass marks, you should reappear.

You cannot reappear for that course TEE once you have received the minimum required marks (typically 40%). You must complete ALL courses within the maximum time frame for the Program.

How much chance to get admission in NITIE Mumbai after shortlisted for GD AND PI ?

KK
Kaya Kalaria Posted On : August 12th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Industrial Engineering Mumbai (2019)

One of my friends graduated from NITIE. According to him, being shortlisted from NITIE depends on several factors. Let me share the ones I got to know about.

  • The most important factor is the GD and PI rounds.
  • PI generally has a greater weightage than GD.
  • Another important factor is your previous qualifications. If you have a great academic score overall in your 10th, 12th, and Graduation, you will then stand out among others.
  • These scores must be equivalent to getting 94 and above out of 100.
  • If you have 2-3 years of work experience, you will also be preferred among other candidates without work experience.

Keep a check on the waitlists. After the first-round selection, a lot of students tend to leave NITIE for other options. At this moment you can get selected.

What are the girl's hostel conditions at nsit?

LS
Lakshminath Sinha Posted On : August 22nd, 2023
B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering, Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology

You can put all your worries to rest regarding the hostel conditions at NSUT if you are a girl and be prepared for the best experience of your life. 

The hostels have all kinds of rooms, single, double, and triple occupancy rooms. The triple occupancy rooms do not mean one room with three beds but three separate rooms for 3 girls that are interconnected. Every set of rooms has its own washroom. 

Additionally, the girls' hostel is air-conditioned and isn’t overcrowded at all. Students of all branches stay together so you get a diverse experience.

The hostel and mess rules are more flexible for the girls' hostel than the boys' hostel. So come here to spend the best years of your life!
