Where should I pursue Economics Honours, Jadavpur University in Kolkata or Symbiosis School of Economics?

NS
Niraj Shah Posted On : April 1st, 2023
Studied at Symbiosis School of Economics, Pune

If you are unsure about which college to choose for your higher education, it is important to consider what you want to achieve in the future.

If you are looking to secure a job soon after graduation, then Symbiosis School of Economics may be the better option for you. The college has a strong reputation for its placement opportunities, with a dedicated placement cell that works towards providing job opportunities to its students. Symbiosis School of Economics grooms its students to make them the perfect hire for big-shot companies, ensuring that they are well-prepared for the job market.

On the other hand, if your goal is to pursue a career in academia, then Jadavpur University (JU) may be the better choice for you. While JU does offer some placement opportunities to its students, the focus is more on academic studies. Jadavpur University students tend to go on to pursue master's and even doctorates and are less inclined to just graduate and get a job.

While Symbiosis School of Economics and Jadavpur University have their respective strengths, the choice ultimately depends on your personal goals and preferences. If you are looking for a college that can provide you with strong placement opportunities, then Symbiosis School of Economics may be the better option for you. However, if you are looking to pursue a career in academia and value academic excellence, then JU may be the better choice.

Which would be the best to join for an MBA: Narsee Monjee, XIMB, or IMT Ghaziabad?

SS
Shiv Shakti Posted On : February 16th, 2023
MBA in Marketing & Analytics, Institute of Management Technology, Ghaziabad (Graduated 2018)

 There are several factors to take into account when deciding between Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS), Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (XIMB), and Institute of Management Technology (IMT) Ghaziabad. All three institutes are considered to be reputable and comparable in many ways, but each has its own unique strengths and weaknesses.

One disadvantage of Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies is its large batch strength. With a large number of students, it can be harder for students to receive individualized attention and support from faculty members. Additionally, the institute does not have hostels, which can be a significant additional cost for students. As a result, the MBA program at Narsee Monjee may cost around 4-5 lacs extra due to the need to stay outside.

On the other hand, if your career aspirations lie in the marketing field, IMT Ghaziabad is considered to be the best college. IMT Ghaziabad is known for its strong marketing program and its focus on providing students with a comprehensive understanding of the various aspects of marketing, such as consumer behavior, market research, and branding. Additionally, the institute's focus on providing students with practical training through internships, industry projects, and case studies, helps students to develop the skills and knowledge needed to excel in a career in marketing.

XIMB is considered to be good in almost everything. It has a balanced curriculum that covers all the important aspects of management. The faculty is experienced, and the institute is known for its research-oriented approach. Additionally, XIMB has a strong focus on sustainability and responsible management which makes it unique among other MBA colleges.

When considering a post-graduation program, it's important to research the different options available and weigh the pros and cons of each institute. Researching the institute's curriculum, faculty, and alumni network, as well as speaking to current students and alumni can help you to make an informed decision. Additionally, it would be a good idea to seek the opinion of professionals in the field you are interested in, as they can provide valuable insights into the opportunities and challenges of different career paths.

Which college should I choose for CSE: BIET Jhansi, KNIT Sultanpur, MMM Gorakhpur or JSS Noida?

PS
Priyadarshini Sen Posted On : February 19th, 2021
B.Tech Electrical Engineering, Madan Mohan Malaviya University of Technology (2022)

Among all the mentioned colleges, MMM Gorakhpur is the best.

JSS Noida is a private college and all the other three colleges are government colleges. So, choosing a private UPTU college over a government college does not make sense. 

Now, when you make a comparison between the other three government colleges i.e. BIET Jhansi, KNIT Sultanpur and MMM Gorakhpur, MMM Gorakhpur steals the show. 

It is highly recommended because of the following reasons:

  1. Highly experienced faculty members
  2. Good and proper facilities
  3. The beautiful campus which is spread over 360 acres.

Alumni of MMM Gorakhpur are in India as well as in other countries working at prestigious positions. The institution has been given the status of a university from a college and there are proposals for it to be promoted to an NIT or an IIT. It can be said that MMM Gorakhpur has a bright future.

When it comes to campus placement, since JSS Noida is located at a better place than the others, it gets the location advantage and therefore, provides slightly better placement opportunities. But, being a student of MMM Gorakhpur will ensure you good packages in off-campus placements. It is you who will have to make the final decision.
