How is Sant Longowal Institute of Technology for the core branch?
My brother was a student of the Electrical Engineering 2019 batch, so I can tell you about it.
In terms of academics, it is really a good Institute with world-class faculty members in their fields. They will assist you greatly even if your problem is not academic in nature, despite the fact that some teachers' teaching methods are deplorable.
You don't have to be concerned about maintaining a decent CGPA. You'll be able to easily crack competitive exams like GATE, IES, or even get a good placement (many Gold medalists are unable to clear the GATE cut-off). Focus on skills and knowledge rather than CGPA (but at least you should have 8).
One more important point to consider that if you are planning to enroll in any core branch, I strongly advise you to begin preparing for GATE, IES, UPSC, CAT, or any competitive exam in your first year or as soon as possible, rather than coding or programming. You will have plenty of time to study for all of these. It will really help you in the future.
What is the placement scenario for food tech at Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering & Technology?
To be honest, it's negligible; yes, this is the word that no one wants to hear when deciding on a career path. But why should I brag if it's not true? So here's why:
First, unlike EE or mechanical, food technology is not a core branch. India is still a developing country, and we consume less processed food than people in Western countries. The vast majority of the population is vegetarian and animal products require most of the processing.
Even though we have access to processed foods in the market, we prefer to purchase local items at the local market than from a supermarket.
The same thing occurs with fruits and vegetables. Because there is no room for negotiation in the sealed product, and it is quite expensive, it has gone through a series of processing units
Food technology is not a bad field but its scope is much wider in foreign countries than in India. You can go for a PG course from some of the best colleges like CFTRIS, and develop other necessary skills. You will barely be able to get a decent job in S.L.I.E.T with only a graduate degree, but before you take food tech, think properly that you really want to do it or not.
