Which is the better choice, IIIT Sri City or IIEST Shibpur for civil engineering?

AS
Abhay Sukla Posted On : March 5th, 2021
B.Tech Aerospace Engineering, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2021)

Here IIEST Shibpur will be a better choice for civil engineering as it is one of the oldest civil engineering colleges in our country and has improved a lot since its inception.

Batch Size: 

One of my friends goes to IIEST, according to him the Civil Department has more than 100 students in a single batch. 

Faculty:

The faculty of the civil engineering department is experienced, knowledgeable, and are highly qualified. They are great at teaching the concepts and are nice and friendly too. However, faculties sometimes tend to use Bangali while teaching, which is difficult to follow for out-of-state students. 

Campus Life:

The campus is also very beautiful and the lifestyle at college is very lively. The hostel also provides many services and a student can decide the menu for their lunch and dinner.

Collaborations: 

IIEST Shibpur has collaborations with the following institutes. 

  • University of Queensland
  • University of Hiroshima
  • Hokkaido University
  • University of South Wales
  • Zurich University
  • California University
  • University of Cambridge

So, you can definitely choose IIEST Shibpur for Civil Engineering. But for placements don’t depend entirely on the institute.

NIT Durgapur will be better for an M.Sc Physics. The quality of academics and exposure offered is better than any of the non-tech institutes in the region. Most students prepare for competitive examinations like NET, GATE, JEST, BARC, ISRO, etc. NITD also has collaborations with many national institutes and research labs. 

Yes, IIEST offers placements to MSc students. But the salary packages offered aren’t very high.

Is it easy to get a 9 CGPA at IIEST Shibpur?

SN
Subhadra Nandi Posted On : March 12th, 2021
Bachelor of Engg. Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2019)

It might be not so difficult but not too easy. If you can sit and study for 8 hours and stretch longer you can get 9 pointers easily and successfully. If you spend most of your time wasting, then it is very much possible and sure you aren’t getting either of pointer and knowledge. Also, getting a 9 pointer or more is easy if you have interest in the field you are pursuing.

  • It is to be noticed that, it’s relative to your credibility to the department you are seeking engineering in.
  • Some departments are easier to score good grades while others aren’t.
  • The number of 9 pointers varies department wise. On an average you cannot see many 9 pointers in a class. Very few are that studious.
  • You have to be sincere, regular, and attentive in classes to be a 9 pointer and to maintain your high CGPA.
  • You can achieve a CGPA more than 9 and above, but you have to be regular and attend at least 80% of class in a semester.
  • Give constant efforts to complete your syllabus before the exam day and solve maximum of your assignments and tutorials yourself. Then getting 9 pointers will become easier.
  • Also, you should do really well in practicals as it adds on the marks, increasing your pointer eventually.
  • You have to revise all the notes and books time to time and thoroughly before your exams.
  • Preparing the notes is vital. 

Yes, you can achieve 9 pointers with genuine approach and studies. Write as well as read enough books while preparing for exams. This will eventually help you in not only exams but also in gaining knowledge. Following these pointers will also help you.

What are the best things for IIEST Shibpur students to do on weekends?

SD
Samrat Datta Posted On : March 5th, 2021
B.E. Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2018)

The weekends at IIEST Shibpur are different because there are not any classes. Everybody gets a much longer time to try to do the thing they enjoy doing.

A friend of mine used to spend the entire weekend playing Counter-strike or FIFA. Many others also catch up on sleep. 

Except for Monday lab report submissions or exams within the Monday morning slot, students usually play, chat, watch movies, enjoy or do whatever gives them satisfaction during the weekend. This spares the weekends that involve INSTRUO or REBECA because the whole student community revels in these two events during that point. Apart from these two festivals, there is no uniformity within the best things that one can do on weekends while studying at IIEST Shibpur. Students just do whatever they enjoy doing which they keep on doing on weekdays too, but just for a slightly longer period.

Which one should I choose, Aerospace at IIEST or ECE at Heritage Institute of Technology, given that I'm interested in both?

SM
Shalini Mehra Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering,Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology

Seeing your interest in both branches, IIEST has a wide scope of diverse cultures and you will find many students from all over the nation. 

IIEST Shibpur offers great exposure in terms of academics as well as extra-curricular activities along with the interactive clubs and fun happening fests. It comes under the Government of India and is one of the NIT. 

However, Aerospace Engineering is not a trending branch anymore and it was in the limelight a decade ago. To open up more opportunities, you will be required to pursue a Master’s or prepare for the competitive exams to get a decent job. 

ECE at Heritage Institute is more prominent but being a private college, it is not up to the mark as compared to Aerospace Engineering. The placement opportunities at HIT are not good. Therefore, all you can do is to opt for IIEST, get a decent aggregate, and change the branch from Aerospace to ECE in the second year.
