Should I go for MSIT Program at IIIT Hyderabad?

AG
Ankur Gupta Posted On : August 2nd, 2023
studied at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad

My friend was a student of MSIT at IIIT Hyderabad. According to him, from a placements point of view, you should rather sit for PGEE conducted by IIIT Hyderabad and take admission into the M.Tech course offered by this institution.

 If you wish to land a job at Google, MSIT won’t allow you to sit for its placements. This is because Google doesn't hire MSIT students. Only M.Tech and B.Tech students are allowed to sit for the placements of top brands like Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Adobe, Amazon, Cisco, Walmart, Indeed, Uber, Samsung, etc. More than 150 companies visit the IIIT Hyderabad campus to hire B.Tech and M.Tech students. M.Tech CSE students are placed with an average package of around INR 31 LPA. 

MSIT course is like revising the concepts of Computer Science up to your B.Tech level. The only bonus is that you will get to do a project for every programming language. MSIT is useful if you belong to a non CS/IT background in B.Tech as it will allow you to learn Computer Science from basics.

Thus, for good placement offers, go for the M.Tech CSE/ M.Tech Computer Science and Information Security instead of the MSIT program at IIIT Hyderabad.

Should I join NIT Agartala or go for any private university?

Namrata Das Posted On : September 18th, 2023

Choosing between NIT Agartala and a private university depends mainly on two factors, the branch you are getting at NIT and obviously your financial situation.

One needs to be financially strong if one wants to join private colleges. Moreover, not every private college is good and most of them have a poor crowd that got in by paying huge amounts. The most credible ones are BITS Pilani, BIT Meshra, VIT Vellor and VIT Bhopal. Unless you are getting these colleges, it’s better to join NIT Agartala.

If you have financial constraints or want to get the NIT tag, then NIT Agartala is a much better choice. However, the placements of some branches are really bad here so you can also upgrade your branch after your 1st year to CSE or ECE.

Ultimately, the decision will depend on your personal preferences and financial condition.

Which colleges are allotted in DU SOL?

AT
Ayush Tiwari Posted On : September 29th, 2021
Bachelor of Arts from University of Delhi (2017)

According to some of my friends who attended DU SOL, colleges are allotted but not on a frequent basis, just for Personal Contact Program classes only. These PCP classes are held in various colleges across DU and you will get assigned a college to attend these classes.

Further, they will assist you with the study material. So it's upon you whether you want to attend classes or want to study at home by yourself.

These classes are held on Saturday and Sunday. Also, these are not compulsory to attend. You won’t be able to enjoy the life of a regular student and will be able to attend only PCP classes in the allotted college.

Is IGNOU approved by UGC AICTE?

SM
Sushma Mehta Posted On : November 3rd, 2022
Studied at Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

IGNOU is a public university governed by the statutes of the Indian Parliament under the IGNOU Act, which authorises IGNOU to confer degrees and diplomas in any discipline and mode: regular, distance, online, or hybrid.

Because IGNOU is a self-governing authority directly under MHRD, India, and its Chancellor is the President of India, it does not require approval from UGC, AICTE, DEB, MCI, or any other statutory body.

However, IGNOU may, at its sole discretion, request that any of the aforementioned authorities state that they have recognised IGNOU programmes. When compared to internationally renowned universities, including Ivy Leagues, GNOU's curriculum, programme design, flexibility, grading methodology, quality of delivery, and evaluation system are on par or even above the bar.

Only hardworking, self-motivated, and 'creators of their own careers' individuals should pursue IGNOU programmes, while those who rely on institutions to help them get placed with good packages due to industry tie-ups should do otherwise.

What is your review of Dr A P J Abdul Kalam Technical University AKTU?

DS
Devesh Sinha Posted On : July 14th, 2022
Studied at Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University

Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam Technical University isn’t a good option for pursuing technical courses. The curriculum followed by the institute is outdated. You will only learn the theoretical aspects of engineering. It doesn’t offer the practical hands-on experience students require to excel in the technical field. 

Most students usually get placed in the IT sector, irrespective of their branches. The highlights of recent AKTU placements show the average package offered by the institute to be around INR 2-3 LPA.

Which college should I join among IISER Pune, IIT Madras Physics, IIT Kanpur Physics or IIT Engineering Physics?

SK
Simran Kaushik Posted On : January 25th, 2022
BS+MS Physics, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (2021)

If you are truly passionate about Physics, be it theoretical or practical, you should choose either IISER Pune or IISER Kolkata. IISER Kolkata is the best option for Physics, while IISER Pune is well-known for its overall academics and infrastructure. Here are the reasons why you should prefer IISER over IIT.

  • Most students joining IIT, aim to get corporate jobs. If you are interested in the subject and want to do actual research on it, IISER is the best place. You will get to meet like-minded people too. 
  • You can check the faculty and the curriculum for Physics at IIT. Even IIT Kanpur which is known for its Physics department puts more emphasis on applied Physics. Most IITs leave out theory-oriented courses like ‘Cosmology’. Also, you won’t get the lab infrastructure similar to IISER at IITs. The labs at IISERs are specifically designed for research works. From the 5th semester onwards, the course curriculum at IITs become quite different. It becomes more technology-oriented. While students at IISERs are required to do a one-year-long research project.  

Based on the performance over the last few years, IISER Pune will be better than IISER Kolkata.

How canI get Patna University’s previous year question papers for BSc entrance?

AB
Abhishek Banerjee Posted On : November 11th, 2021
Bachelor of Science from Patna Science College, Patna (2019)

It can be difficult to get your hands on the previous year’s question paper of Patna University. Since the university takes back the question paper after the examination. However, you can get these question papers from the book shops situated opposite the university. There are also a few websites created by the students of the university where you can find the question papers.
