Which is better, IIIT Raipur or NIT Raipur?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 9th, 2023

I am assuming you wish to study B.Tech CSE/IT from either of the two.

IT at NIT Raipur is a good branch with a good placement record. However, its faculty and curriculum are not up to the mark. The placements are better in CSE as compared to IT. 

On the other hand, IIIT Naya Raipur is a new college. So its alumni base is yet to develop. But it has a good placement record for CSE. The median salary ( for B.Tech and M.Tech CSE) stood at INR 15 LPA during 2022 placement season. The Infrastructure of IIIT Naya Raipur is much better. It is newly built and modern. Also, its curriculum contains the latest topics, and is in line with the syllabus of top IIITs.

Thus, IIIT Naya Raipur is a good choice for B.Tech CSE. But you can also choose IT/CSE at NIT Raipur.

What is a better option, NIT Durgapur for chemical or NIT Rourkela for biotechnology?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 16th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

The choice of an institute depends on 2 major factors, the credibility of the institute and the branch you are getting. In terms of the worth of the institute NIT Rourkela clearly overpowers NIT Durgapur. NIT Rourkela ranks second in East India after IIT Kharagpur. 

NIT Rourkela Biotechnology is designed for students whose primary focus is pursuing qualitative research and g for a Masters's or Ph.D. That being said, it has limited job opportunities and the placement percentage is as low as 60%. Moreover, only a handful of core companies make offers and the average CTC offered is in the range of 5 -6 Lakhs. 

 NIT Durgapur Chemical Engineering is a suitable choice if you prioritize placements to research work. Even the core placements are decent here with companies like IOCL, etc visiting the campus during placements. 

Ultimately, both institutes and branches offer diverse opportunities so you need to consider your inclinations first. If you are a research enthusiast, NIT Rourkela Biotechnology is great but if your first preference is earning money, then go for NIT Durgapur Chemical Engineering.

Which college is better IIM Sirmaur or IIM Bodhgaya?

AS
Amit Sharma Posted On : February 15th, 2023
Former PGP-II student at Indian Institute of Management Sirmaur (2016–2018)

Compare the summer and final placement reports of both batches for all the 3 years. Look up the student clubs and activities on both campuses. They are absolutely necessary for your 2 years there. Finally, look up the professors in both colleges, majorly for the subject, you will probably be specializing in. Good professors impart their experience along with education. Keep in mind that IIM Bodhgaya, however, lags behind in one vital factor i.e., the number of students. In all probability, the students in the upcoming batch (your would-be batch) in Sirmaur will be more than if you were in Bodhgaya. A healthy amount of interaction matters a lot, especially because it's a business school and you benefit from the range of ideas numbers can provide. 

However, the final decision is up to you entirely. Assign weights to the above factors and decide accordingly. After taking the decision, do not second guess your choice after going into one of the colleges. Make the best of your time there. Chase excellence in every facet of your MBA while you are there. If you do this, the choice part will cease to matter in a few months.

How is NIT Delhi as compared to other colleges in Delhi like NSIT, IGDTUW, IIIT-D, and DTU?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : October 11th, 2023

Here is a detailed comparative analysis of NIT Delhi with other Delhi colleges like NSIT, IGDTUW, IIIT Delhi, and DTU on the basis of some common factors

  • Academics: The quality of education offered is more or less the same in all these aforementioned institutes. The professors focus more on research work than on delivering theoretical concepts.
  • Curriculum: The NIT Delhi curriculum has been updated recently and has become extremely challenging and rigorous almost at par with the IITs. 
  • Campus Life: All these institutes except NIT Delhi have excellent cultural and tech fests. NIT Delhi needs to work on this aspect the most as its students lack organizational skills.
  • Sports: NITDelhi has all the equipment and resources necessary for a good sports environment. Students of NIT Delhi can be seen actively participating in inter-NIT and sports fest.
  • Clubs: NIT Delhi has many tech and cultural clubs that conduct a variety of activities. However, its club culture is not as active as in other Delhi colleges like DTU and NSIT. 
  • Startup culture: NIT Delhi professors encourage its students in this area. In fact, one of the ur seniors was invited to stay in Rashtrapati Bhavan as his project based on meteorological phenomena was selected for its innovative technique.

Overall, NIT Delhi may not be at par with other well-established Dego colleges but it's slowly climbing the ladder and may surpass them in no time.

How is it like being at FMS Delhi? Would you trade your life with someone studying in top IIMs A B or C?

GY
Gaurav Yadav Posted On : January 10th, 2023
MBA in Marketing, Faculty of Management Studies, University of Delhi (Graduated 2002)

In comparison to the IIMs, FMS retains the advantages of small batch size and a fee structure that is relatively low. The small batch size simplifies placements significantly. With the exception of a few foreign consultancies, most of the top companies that visit the IIMs also visit FMS. Despite all of the university's bureaucracy, etc., there is a well-established alumni network that still ensures that things work out for the current batches.

Because of the small batch size, people are extremely competitive. This was in stark contrast to what you hear about the IIMs. Even though they have competition but they maintain some semblance of sanity due to the large batch. FMS can be difficult to manage at times, both in obvious behaviours and subtle actions by people you study with.

The culture at FMS is influenced by the culture of Delhi. In comparison, IIMs are unquestionably more cosmopolitan. Unless you have prior exposure, adjusting to a new environment can be difficult for people from very different cultures, such as the South or East. Otherwise, you'll have to learn to adjust the hard way. But it's still worth the effort. The people you meet in both locations are of the highest calibre. It is up to you to make the best of the situation.

Even if given the chance, there's no way one would like to trade places with the IIMs.

Which is better, IIT BHU electronic or IIT Guwahati mechanical?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 5th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

For most students, the end goal of getting admission to a college is to secure a job in a good company. So most of the time placements become the basis for evaluating the worth and credibility of an institute. Here are some points pertaining to the placements in IIT BHU and IIT Guwahati

  • Very few core jobs are offered with only 20–25% of people from a branch securing a job in their core companies. This is because very few core companies visit and the package offered by them is less than non-core companies. Thus students flock to non-core companies. IITG is much better than IIT BHU in core placements as at IIT BHU, some faculties and labs are not up to the mark.
  • There are multiple non-core companies that offer jobs to the IITians in various profiles such as software development, business analysis, operations executive, and Finance management. IT-BHU offers the best non-core opportunities as the workload is less and placements are great. 
  • You can easily change your branch at IIT BHU with very less effort. All you need to do is maintain a good SPI and then change your branch after the first semester.
  • Located in the prime area, IIT BHU will give you a feel of Varanasi, BHU Vishwanath temple.

However, for students whose priority is not to get a job but to pursue higher studies and pursue a career in research, IIT Guwahati is the best option. A few aspects and the preferred colleges are

  • Placements - IIT-BHU>IITG
  • Academics- IIT-BHU<IITG
  • Faculties- IITG>IIT-BHU
  • Branch change- IIT-BHU>IITG
  • Campus infrastructure- IIT-BHU<IITG
  • Campus life, culture- IIT-BHU>>IITG

The choice of the institute is a matter of preferences and your career prospects so make sure you set your priorities right.

Which branch should I choose, NIT Jamshedpur metallurgy, production, or civil?

GG
Gargi Gupta Posted On : September 1st, 2023
Studied at NIT Jamshedpur

There are several things you should consider while comparing these branches.

During 2023 placements, 97.29% of students were placed in the Civil branch. Metallurgy students received 100% placements while production students received 97.61% placements. 

The salary package stats for these branches are as described below- 

NIT Jamshedpur

Out of the three, Metallurgy has the highest placement percentage.

TATA Steel offers good placements to Metallurgy students of NIT Jamshedpur. Other than them, Vedanta, Jindal Steel, Hindalco, and Tata Metaliks are some other companies that offer placements to Metallurgy students of NIT Jamshedpur.

Metallurgy is a good choice for higher studies. Many students from this branch perform really well in GATE exams.

I recommend you consider joining Metallurgy at NIT Jamshedpur because it offers good future prospects. However, also talk to some seniors from the other branches before making a final decision.
