What should I choose mechanical engineering at top 3 nits or CSE at NIT Jalandhar?

HA
Harsh Anurag Posted On : December 5th, 2022
B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering, National Institutes of Technology (NITs) (Graduated 2020)

Students these days focus more on placements than general potential development. They rank branches on the basis of the placement opportunities they render. But this viewpoint is totally unfair.

Recent years have seen a drastic change in interest from Mechanical Engineering to CSE. People prefer sitting in front of the computer for the rest of their lives just to earn better than Mechanical Engineers.

My advice in this regard is that you should go for Mechanical Engineering at the top 3 NITs over CSE at NIT Jalandhar. Else choose CSE only if you are crazy about coding.

How can you define a B.Tech at JNTUH?

SD
Sai Kumar Dhillon Posted On : August 8th, 2023
Studied at Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Hyderabad (2016)

The life of a B.Tech student at JNTUH is amazing if you make the most of it. There are many perks of choosing JNTUH, especially over its affiliated colleges-

  1. The campus is spacious and beautiful. It has a separate block for all the different engineering departments and separate buildings for all the first-year B.Tech students.
  2. The campus has well-equipped libraries. There is a central library along with a college library which issues 4 and 3 cards respectively. Overall, you will get 7 cards which is enough for a semester. 
  3. TEQIP is open 24*7 and has a good quality internet facility. The labs are well-equipped. The auditorium is very beautiful and is one of the best college auditoriums.
  4. The sports facilities are pretty good.
  5. You will get all the freedom and no one will spoon-feed you.
  6. There are plenty of places to hang out outside the campus.
  7. The placements are good and packages lie between 3.3 LPA to 12 LPA.

I would also like to shed some light on the weak points of JNTUH. The professors over here teach very well but the teaching assistants do not. You won’t have the freedom to conduct your own experiments in the lab and will have to follow instructions. There are no literary clubs, drama clubs, and anything of that kind over here.

You will have a great time at JNTUH if you create a balance between studies and enjoyment.

Is it foolishness if I choose BITS Goa CSE over the top NITs CSE?

AG
Akhilesh Garg Posted On : August 23rd, 2021
B.E Electrical and Electronics Engineering, BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus (2014)

Choosing neither of those choices would be outright foolishness. You would be foolish if you waste the chance of getting a seat here. 

BITS Goa and top NITs, both have their merits. Speaking from a friend’s experience with BITS Pilani Goa campus has great opportunities for CSE and for the overall development of students as well.

You can talk to someone from NITs about how things are there to get an idea, and then make a choice. Both institutions produce good engineers, so irrespective of what you choose, it will help you if you use the opportunity and facilities offered properly.

Is naval architecture and ocean engineering in IIT Madras a good choice?

JS
Jayeeta Saha Posted On : March 31st, 2023
M.Tech in Ocean Engineering at IIT Madras (2019)

The Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering branch at IIT Madras offers courses over 3 levels 

B.Tech level: This level offers the maximum job prospects one could ask for.

  • The placements of BTech students of this branch are excellent although core offers are only a handful. This allows students to switch fields and enter banking, finance, or consultancy. 
  • Some students go for MBAs or start preparing for government exams. 
  • Those interested in Hughes studies go for a master's or a Ph.D. usually in top foreign institutes. 

Masters level: The job prospects are similar to the bachelor's level but most students prefer going for a Ph.D. or a job

  • The placement scenario is identical to BTech placements except that Masters students can also make it into companies that need mechanical or civil background. This is mainly because of their prior knowledge of mechanical or civil branches from the bachelor's degree.
  • Most MTech students go to a job profile that aligns with their bachelor's domain 
  • Masters students are more skilled and experienced and thus are offered more core jobs in comparison to BTechbstudents
  • For those interested in higher studies, the option for Ph.D. from a top foreign university is open. Some even convert their Master's into Ph.D. at IIT Madras.
  • Other than Civil and Mechanical companies, Masters's students are offered a plethora of non-core jobs with excellent packages.


 

Ph.D. level: This is the ultimate level and has very few job prospects 

  • No placements are offered to Ph.D. students and most of them enter Academia and become professors in top colleges
  • Those who are hungry for research, continue their passion by becoming Postdocs
  • A very few are inclined towards startups based on their research work and open one of their or join someone else’s 

No matter which level you belong to, the students of Naval get to experience the excellent campus life of IIT Madras and get equal exposure to extracurricular activities. The branch may provide limited core opportunities but remember IIT Madras attracts the best non-core jobs and someone open to challenges takes it from a positive perspective.

Among the above institutes, PEC is a better choice considering the fact that the candidate is interested in an MBA in the future. There are several points supporting the choice, and some of them are listed below.

  • PEC is an institute with a lot of opportunities in extra-curricular activities. For candidates interested in MBA in a good B-school in the country, participation in extracurricular activities gives a greater edge while getting selected for an MBA course in top institutes like IIMs.
  • Students should always go for courses in which they are sure to receive a top score in the semesters. A CGPA greater than 9 can be considered excellent. A good academic record is always essential for applying and getting a seat in IIMs.

Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering: What cgpa is required to get the dream companies from iit BHU?

PG
Prajukta Ghose Posted On : July 7th, 2023
Studied at the Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi

Here is some strong advice for those who are conscious about their CGPA to get placed in a top firm. The kind of job and package you are offered depends on your skills and talents and not your CGPA or the institute you belong to. Many intelligent students secure good packages from average institutes while average students get low packages even from top colleges.

Also, if you are investing your entire energy and efforts in job hunting, you won’t be able to enjoy the process of studying for your favorite branch. If you aren’t planning to become an entrepreneur or go for higher studies, then you will have to focus on your CGPA to get placed with a decent package. That being said, a CGPA >=8 is considered decent by many companies at least for shortlisting in the written round. Your CGPA is not much of value if you have excellent coding skills. So look at the bigger picture and stop focusing on CGPA only!
