What should I take among IIT Delhi textile, IIT Kharagpur biotechnology, and IIT Guwahati engineering physics?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : April 10th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

The choice of college and branch totally depends on your inclination and career prospects. Yet, a few pointers you might consider 

For MBA/ non-core jobs/Startups: IIT Delhi Textile is the best choice if you are looking for any 3 of these options. Its excellent location provides enough exposure to give you access to unimaginable opportunities. Many events hosted by industry experts, CEOs of big companies, and successful entrepreneurs will give a better insight into the startup culture. Moreover, students preparing for competing exams can easily access coaching centers nearby.

Research in Biotechnology: If you are interested in research in general or Biotechnology specifically, then the Biotechnology at KGP is an excellent choice. It is one of the most demanding fields in terms of research and general growth. With a good CGPA, you can find a research internship or you can apply for MS or Ph.D. Even job opportunities are plentiful. 

Campus: IIT Delhi is better because of its small size and location

Lastly, Engineering Physics from IIT Guwahati should be considered only if you are genuinely passionate about Physics and want to pursue a research career in the same. The curriculum comprises high-tech mathematical concepts and is a good option to pursue a career in economics and computer science.

What will I miss if I join KPC instead of malda medical college What are the merits and demerits of both the colleges?

BM
Binayak Majumdar Posted On : October 11th, 2021
Studied at KPC Medical College and Hospital

There is no specific winner. Both Malda Medical College (MMC) and KPC Medical College have their advantages and disadvantages, and both fall under the same bracket. The better choice will be to compare them based on the location that is near to your home.

The following are some of the comparison points.

  • MMC is a government institute, and KPC is a private medical college.
  • The course fee for Malda Medical College is less as compared to KPC Medical College. KPC charges around 8.92 lakhs. 
  • Malda patients are usually happy with the hospital staff. There are twenty students to examine a single patient frequently.
  • Three out of ten patients in KPC fail to cooperate with interns in absence of a doctor. Student interns do not have much authority while examining the patients. It does not happen in government institutes like Malda.
  • The main disadvantage of KPC is the tag of private institutes even after getting admission through the NEET UG exam like Malda.
  • The crowd at KPC is less, and the campus is clean. The faculties are more understanding as compared to Malda.
  • KPC is in the main city, and Malda is on the outskirts of Kolkata.

Overall, choose the college that is near you.

How is IT at NIT Surathkal compared to the CSE department?

DB
Ditsha Banerjee Posted On : September 16th, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal

Information Technology is the newest department of NITK Surathkal so its cutoff is much lower than CSE. However, there aren’t any major differences in the course structure of these two departments. 

The CS department courses focus mainly on programming computers using mathematical algorithms while the IT department courses focus on installing internal networks and computer systems and perhaps programming.

In the IT department, you will have to deal with both practical and theoretical problems. Several mini-projects and labs take place every semester and this helps in importing a hands-on experience. CS students too are required to complete many practical projects during their course and are also taught theoretical aspects.

The IT department has newer and less experienced faculties as a result of which students are often clueless about academics. However, the faculties are easily available. CS department faculties on the other hand are highly experienced and offer excellent guidance to their students.

Both CS and IT students receive similar placements and internship opportunities from good companies. Here is a comparative analysis of the placement statistics of these branches

Which college to prefer IIIT Vadodara or SGSITS Indore for CSE?

TG
Tamalika Ghosh Posted On : July 5th, 2021
B.Tech Information Technology, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Vadodara (2019)

Some of my friends studied CSE from SGSITS, so I might be able to share some details about SGSITS. But I can provide the basic information of IIIT Vadodara, as I am not very familiar with the college.

  • The CSE department at SGSITS is about 30 years old.
  • The student intake of the CSE department is 90. Most of the students of the general category are MPPET toppers.
  • The HOD, Professor Mehta is considered to be the best Operating Systems teacher in India.
  • At IIIT Vadodara, you will get to learn coding from scratch. It will be helpful for those who do not come from a CSE background.
  • At IIIT Vadodara you will get the IIIT tag, which could prove to be valuable during interviews, but not always.

If you work hard, you can easily secure a job during the placement program. Top companies like Microsoft, Deloitte, Mu Sigma, SAP, Mindtree, Wipro, ZS Associates, L&T, Morgan Stanley, etc. take part in the placement program of both colleges. They also offer deserving candidates internship opportunities, during their 3rd year. Ultimately it is your choice and priority that will help you decide which college to get admitted in.
