Hello sir, which will be a better option between NITIE Mumbai and IIM Indore …there are many controversies about Indore that batch size being huge it's difficult to get placed there?

SS
Swati Srivastava Posted On : May 10th, 2023

It is subjective and it completely depends on your goals and your preferences, and how much the IIM tag matters to you. If you are really keen and want to have a career in operations and especially supply chain management then you can/should go for NITIE. 

For all other streams go for IIM-I without any second thought. The placement is good there even with the big batch size and all, and why consider yourself at the bottom of the batch before even entering the institution? Even if you are able to keep yourself in the top 50 percent you will get a good and lucrative job and package. 

Below is a table comparing the two on the basis of fees, and packages;

B-School

Fees

Average Salary Package

Median Package

Highest Salary Package

NITIE Mumbai

INR 17.31 lakhs

INR 25.27 LPA

INR 22 LPA

INR 78.20 LPA

IIM Indore

INR 21.05 lakhs

INR 30.21 LPA

INR 27.2 LPA

INR 1.14 CPA

And the Average Package of the top 50% of the batch INR 34.04 LPA (NITIE)

Is BITS Pilani better than IIT Kharagpur?

A
Admin Posted On : June 18th, 2024

No, BITS Pilani is not better than IIT kharagpur. IIT Kharagpur is a government institute established in 1951. It is older as compared to BITS Pilani. 

No doubt BITS Pilani is also a good college, but IIT KGP clearly has an edge over it. Both of these institutes can be compared on few parameters as discussed below-

  • Overall Ranking: The NIRF ranking of IIT Kharagpur is better than BITS Pilani. Many National and International ranking provider platforms choose IIT Kharagpur over BITS Pilani because of its long standing reputation and huge research output. As per the latest NIRF Engineering Ranking 2023, IIT Kharagpur is at rank 6, whereas BITS Pilani is at rank 25. 
  •  Research Opportunities: IIT Kharagpur provides more extensive research opportunities as compared to BITS Pilani. As per the NIRF Ranking 2023 for Research, IIT Kharagpur is at 5th position, and BITS Pilani is at 26th. 
  • Faculty: Both of these institutes have highly qualified faculty members. But IIT Kharagpur has a larger faculty. 
  • Campus Life: The campus area of IIT Kharagpur is much bigger as compared to BITS Pilani. The total area of IIT Kharagpur is 2100 acres, whereas, BITS Pilani has an area of 328 acres in total. BITS Pilani offers a more vibrant campus life in the form of various clubs and societies. On the other hand, IIT KGP focuses mainly on academics.
  • Placements: Both of these institutes have good placement records. Almost all the top companies visit their campuses for recruitment including EXL, Google, Microsoft, Airbus, Jaguar Land Rover, Tata Steel etc. The highest and median package for IIT Kharagpur in the year 2023 were INR 2.68 CPA and INR 24 LPA respectively. Whereas the highest, median and average package for BITS Pilani in the year 2023 were INR 60.75 LPA, INR 30 LPA and INR 30.37 LPA respectively.

Based on these factors, I would recommend you choose IIT KGP. But even BITS Pilani is an excellent institution.

I'm 19 and doing my undergraduate studies in IIT Kharagpur. I am clueless as to where my life is heading. What are the various things I should learn during my 4 year stay here?

NG
Nikhil Goal Posted On : March 22nd, 2023
Mechanical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP)

Honestly being in the first year at IIT is too early to be clueless. In the future, you will face hundreds of circumstances where you will feel clueless so don’t ruin your college life feeling clueless when you have so much to do.

  • Don’t let your CGPA fall below 8 during the first year at IIT Kharagpur.
  • Master programming languages such as Java, C, HTML, C++, Python, Ruby, or .net,
  • Develop a startup mindset and start working on one early. By the end of 2nd year have your startup idea ready with a website.
  • Master MATLAB/MATHEMATICA/COMSOL software. You need them for academics.
  • If you are good at dramatics you can start your YouTube channel and start earning.
  • Rather than depending on on-campus placements, get a PPO from the company you interned with.
  • Maintain healthy bonds with your project professor.

I will suggest you not waste time looking for clues but rather make the most of your precious time at IIT. Explore your abilities and look for your passions and keep learning new things.

Should I join NITIE or IIM Indore?

AM
Abinash Mishra Posted On : May 13th, 2022
MBA from National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2019)

You should join NITIE. Although it is mostly known for Supply Chain and Operations, it offers good opportunities in other industries as well. NITIE placements trends reveal that recruiters from FMCGs, BFSI, consulting sector, and IT/E-commerce also visit the campus placements. So, you will have better chances of landing a job in a leading company. According to the placements highlights of 2022, the average CTC for NITIE stood around INR 25 LPA. 

IIM Indore has a huge batch size. While the batch size of NITIE is concise, students get the required attention from teachers. The location of NITIE is also favorable. Doing an MBA from Mumbai will definitely help you get good internship and placement opportunities.

Which is better, CUSAT or CET?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : August 7th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

CUSAT is your best bet if you are willing to pursue a Masters's or PG.

CUSAT has the freedom to design the curriculum for its students that suits their needs perfectly and imparts quality education. It has highly experienced professors who are keen to train the students and don’t just teach for the sake of completing the syllabus. CET on the other hand follows the KTU syllabus, one of the most average institutes of Kerala so the quality of education is sacrificed a lot.

In CET, professors sometimes are just transferred by the government, which never is the case with CUSAT. Additionally, CUSAT received huge funds from the government to support its large-scale research projects.

Ultimately, CUSAT is a better choice than CET for Masters while CET is a better option for Bachelor.
