Which is better: Civil NIT Trichy or CSE NIT Patna?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : July 21st, 2023

NIT Trichy is one of the top 10 institutions in India for Engineering, NIT Patna makes it to the 56th position in the NIRF Rankings 2023 for Engineering.

Despite this, I would suggest you go for CSE from NIT Patna. Out of my experience of meeting different people, I would suggest you choose a better course over a better institution. CSE is in demand these days, while Civil might not be a good choice placement-wise.

A friend of mine pursued his B.Tech in Civil Engineering from a top NIT. He did not land a decent job. After that, he cracked GATE and went for his M.Tech in Civil Engineering from DTU. Even after his M.Tech, he landed a package of INR 5.5 LPA.

Civil Engineers from IIT Guwahati in my friend circle started preparing for UPSC because of not getting a job.

I believe that a course tag is permanent unless you switch your stream during your Masters. Therefore, I would suggest you take CSE from NIT Patna instead of Civil from NIT Trichy.

Both Haldia Institute of Technology and JUET Guna are quite similar in terms of the infrastructure they offer, curriculum, and quality of teaching. If you have to pick the best out of two, HIT Haldia weighs slightly more than JUET-Guna.

  • Ultimately, the University exams are quite easy. You can easily score above 75% throughout your eight semesters. Your overall GPA will be good. When you plan to go for a master's degree, this score comes in handy.
Categories Civil at HIT Haldia Civil at JUET Guna

What should I do to create an attractive CV? I am a first-year Civil Engineering student at IIEST, Shibpur.

AB
Ankita Bose Posted On : March 14th, 2021
IIEST Shibpur

The term attractive is relative, in the context of a CV or resume. You just showcase your skill-set, education, work experience, etc in these documents. Yes, a CV can be well-organized or well-formed. A well-formed CV may be found attractive to one recruiter and in the very same way, it may be found dull to some. So, there is a pinch of luck factor also required. So first you need to consider for what company you are going to apply. Your CV should be target-specific and must target a company that is interested in the skills you have. For Example, If it is an analytics firm then put some extra effort to showcase your interpersonal skills as well as your extracurricular activities. If it is a core technical job then vocational training and other academic projects should be highlighted well.

To make a good cv consider the following points. 

  • The font size should never exceed 16. A minimum would preferably be 12. This font looks professional.
  • Use professionally used fonts like times new roman etc. Don't forget to make certain comments bold or underlined.
  • You should have an email id that doesn't contain anything funny. For ex- if someone named Aditya Ghose makes his email id adityarocks@gmail.com it will not come across as professional.
  • Don't forget to use margins in ur CV. Your CV should look clean and spacious.
  • The declaration is not needed for campus placement. If you try off-campus then you have to write a declaration to verify that it's your cv.
  • Make use of a table to write down your academic qualifications and your percentage of marks, CGPA, etc.
  • The most important thing to note is that a CV should never start with the title CV or Resume.
  • Don't forget to convert it to .pdf format as it looks more professional.

Hope this was helpful. You can also consult various websites to understand the process better. You can also download some formats for your reference.
