Is Ambedkar University better than Delhi University?

AR
Akshita Rawat Posted On : January 18th, 2022
studied Psychology at Ambedkar University Delhi

Ambedkar University and Delhi University both have different visions and different approaches towards teaching. You will get good faculty at both universities. So, it’s not fair to compare these institutes. 

The major difference between the two institutes is that at Ambedkar University the course structure and syllabus get updated every semester based on the interest of the faculty and students. While DU is more traditional in terms of academics and exams.

KGMU vs JIPMER, which is better overall in terms of academics, hostels and campus life?

SS
Shridhar Sriraman Posted On : September 30th, 2023
Lives in Pondicherry, Puducherry, India

Here is some information about both these colleges to help you make a better decision-

  1. JIPMER is the AIIMS of South. It has a better academic culture. Everything, from peer groups to labs, is top-notch over there. Both the colleges have decent hostels.
  2. JIPMER has a bit more exciting campus life. But KGMU makes up for this with its festive celebrations. 
  3. JIPMER puts great emphasis on student research, so student learning is supposedly better. The internships are immensely rigorous over there.
  4. Lucknow serves really good chicken meals. At KGMU, you’ll get good non veg meals. People from the North face food and language barriers at JIPMER, but they adapt eventually. 

Based on this information, I would say that JIPMER is overall better. However, even KGMU is a really good choice for your medical studies.

Why are Delhi School of Economics and other better ROI colleges (like JBIMS and many more) for an MBA not as popular as FMS?

MS
Manoj Saigal Posted On : February 20th, 2023
Business Analyst at Allicient Technologies Pvt Ltd (2020–present)

I have a friend who completed his MBA from the Delhi School of Economics. This answer is based on his opinions about why colleges with better ROI like DSE and JBIMS fail to compete with FMS. He has listed a few reasons for the lack of popularity of such B-schools:

  1. Establishment: DSE MBA first began in 1986 whereas FMS was established in 1954. So the course and the institute are the oldest in the FMS case.
  2. Alumni: Being an older Institute, FMS has a much stronger alumni network that has built a certain level of credibility in the corporate world. This criterion is missing in the case of DSE.
  3. Courses offered: Until 2015, DSE offered courses like Master of Organization Development and Human Resources and Master of International Business instead of MBA. Firstly these specializations are not at par with Finance and Marketing. Secondly, MBA has more value than MHROD and MHIB.
  4. Industrial relations: FMS is much more exposed to the industry and has excellent relations with the corporate world owing to a large number of its alumni.
  5. Faculty: The faculty is almost similar as both DSE and FMS operate under DU. But the shortcomings are compensated for at FMS via the compulsory guest lectures by industry experts.
  6. Crowd: The extremely high cutoff ensures only the most talented people enter FMS thereby increasing the quality of education and peer learning experience at FMS. This aspect too is pretty weak in the case of DSE.

It is because of these strong factors that B Schools like JBIMS fail to match the level of popularity enjoyed by FMS.

How is the MStat at ISI compared to an MBA at IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Bangalore, or IIM Calcutta in terms of job and higher education perspectives?

SS
Snigdha Suryavanshi Posted On : December 1st, 2022
B.Stat and M.Stat in Statistics (academic discipline) & Mathematics, Indian Statistical Institute (Graduated 2020)

In terms of job opportunities, IIM is far superior.

IIM A, B, and C would have an average placement of around 22 LPA, whereas ISI would have 16-17 LPA. However, you must keep in mind that you would pay at least INR 20 lac for your IIM degree while receiving a 65k stipend and contingency grant from ISI for free.

You might start out as a data scientist, financial analyst, or consultant if you join ISI, and you would advance along that career vertical. IIM exposes you to a much broader range of roles such as FMCG, general management, and so on.

In terms of higher education, 40-50% of ISI batches pursue Ph.D. programs in the US/abroad, while nearly 100% of IIM batches pursue jobs. Going straight to a Ph.D. after IIM is difficult due to the large educational loan (assuming you take one). However, many of them pursue Ph.D. degrees at various business schools around the world.

However, these institutes (ISI and IIM) are incomparable because one teaches statistics, and the other management. These are two very different topics. So it all comes down to what you want to do with your life.

Which college is better Mohawk, Sheridan or George Brown?

MG
Mike Grant Posted On : February 11th, 2022
studied Architecture at Sheridan College

Each of these colleges has its specialty program. So, you should choose one of these three colleges based on the course you are choosing. It will be even better if you reach out to employers in your field, and find out which college they prefer. The Architecture program is widely recognized among recruiters. Most employers prefer technologists from Sheridan. 

Mohawk College is known for its health and technology education. Most recognized programs in George Brown are Culinary Arts, Business, Design, etc.

Is JNTU-H better than NIT puducherry?

SG
Shreyansh Gupta Posted On : October 6th, 2021
Studies at Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (2023)

One of my friends studied in JNTU Hyderabad and she says that the college is very good when it comes to studies and placement. 

It gives you great opportunities to build your career and thrive in it. The subject knowledge is crucial and is given great importance there. The curriculum is also very structured and helps students with the approach to study. Many MNCs participate in the placement drive. In the NIRF Ranking 2021, JNTU has ranked 62 along with other NITs. It will be unfair to compare two very different entities but you can choose based on your requirement.

Is Patna University comparable to Jawaharlal University?

SG
Satyavan Goenka Posted On : October 6th, 2021
Completed PhD Media Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University in 2020

More than 80% of the female students of Patna University and in the colleges under the same like Magadh Mahila College, P Women’s College, PSC, etc. They promote the education of women. Patna University is backed by the state government and is one of the 20 best universities in the country. 

  • Through scholarships, you can make the most of your tenure as a student at this university. 
  • At Patna University, there is almost zero tolerance between the faculty and the students. 
  • The few good professors in the university do not help much in giving the university a good name.
  • In the case of Jawaharlal Nehru University, however, you will be taught by some of the most qualified and experienced teachers in the country. 
  • You will not feel like you are left out. 
  • The classrooms are vibrant and interactive and the university helps you in nurturing your skills. 
  • You will guarantee yourself a good career if you choose JNU.
Categories Patna University Jawaharlal Nehru University
Placement Percentage 60-80% 80-90%
Highest CTC 16-18 LPA 22-28 LPA
Average CTC 3-6 LPA 15-16 LPA

The highest package offered to the students of JNU can be as high as INR 12-15 LPA. Some of the top recruiters include Oracle, Siemens, Wipro, Cognizant, Google, Amazon, etc. Comparing Patna University and JNU might not be justified, as both stand in different leagues of colleges.

Which is better for CSE Tezpur University or SLIET Sangrur?

AV
Aditi Verma Posted On : October 20th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, Tezpur University

I have friends from both Tezpur University and SLIET Sangrur. Based on the conversations I had with them, I will say for CSE TU is far better. 

  • The CSE department of Tezpur University has a great faculty base. It is definitely better than SLIET.
  • The university focuses on practical approaches rather than theoretical knowledge. Apart from this, it provides an amazing opportunity for students to work with the Government of India-funded projects. 
  • The placements at TU are any day better than SLIET. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered was between 3.5 LPA-10 LPA. 

So, TU is better than SLIET in all respects. It is in fact the best option to do CSE after IIT-G.

The college you decide to go to depends on what you want from your MBA. Many are just interested in placements. Some want to experience a nice relaxing college life. So these points might clarify further which of the 2 colleges is for you

Location: IIM Shillong is located in a serene area in North-East and has a calm temperature throughout. The ambiance is much more relaxing than IIM Lucknow which has extreme temperatures.

Curriculum: IIM Lucknow has a rigorous curriculum and the students face cut-throat competition causing many to repeat the first year. In contrast, IIM Shillong’s curriculum is balanced and students remain relaxed most of the time.

Sports: If you are a sports freak, then IIM Shillong is not for you as it has very limited opportunities as opposed to IIM Lucknow which has amazing opportunities.

Placements: The placement statistics of both the IIMs are given below

Particulars 

IIM Lucknow 

IIM Shillong 

Highest CTC

INR 58 LPA

INR 55.22 LPA
