What is the quality of education provided at Karnataka State Open University (KSOU)?

TB
Tamaghna Basu, Posted On : October 27th, 2021
studied at Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) (2019)

KSOU is known to make a good effort in providing proper education to the students unable to join a regular program. But the quality of education provided by them will differ from any regular program. 

The student-teacher interaction is hampered along with the peer-to-peer relationship. Communicating directly with the teacher and students is much better than online lectures. This might be one of the reasons why distance education has very low credibility for job prospects. 

But for the students who are unable to join a regular course due to other priorities like a job or other responsibilities, attending online programs gives them an opportunity to learn about the subject.
Karnataka State Open University will provide study materials and their online lectures will be of great help.

What are the important things you've learned at NIT Jamshedpur?

GG
Gargi Gupta Posted On : September 6th, 2023
Studied at NIT Jamshedpur

I have many friends who graduated from NIT Jamshedpur and they told me about the life lessons they learned the hard way at NIT Jamshedpur but were utterly grateful. Most of them claimed that the institute changed them as a whole. People who were earlier shy and introverted became confident and started socializing well. People who were earlier shy and introverted became confident and started socializing well.

Here are a few important life lessons people seem to have learned at NIT Jamshedpur, in general,

  • Hard Work beats talent, every time: Most students observed that the average talented students tend to work harder than talented ones and eventually surpass them. 
  • You're Not Supposed To Accomplish All of Your Goals: As an engineering student you need to realize that failures will knock you sometimes but that does mean it’s the end of the world. You don’t have to win at everything. Sometimes things happen for the better. Someone who failed at IIT JEE made it to NIT Jamshedpur and ended up doing an internship at the e-tail giant- Amazon. 
  • Choose your friend circle wisely: Your company is what determines your altitude because it can be the source of motivation or the source of demotivation. Living away from home they are your temporary family so choose wisely. Your friends will affect your decisions and you will become like the people you hang around. 
  • If you think you are one in a million, there are thousands like you: Don’t think you are special or overestimate yourself because here everyone is equal.
  • Time is the most precious resource: It’s best to utilize your time fruitfully rather than regretting it later. In college, time is the most valuable treasure you possess.

Hope NIT Jamshedpur brings out the best in you too and helps you achieve your future endeavors!

I'm getting PEC CSE (Chandigarh quota). I'm also thinking to take a drop and give JEE next year. Is it wise?

RR
Radhika Ray Posted On : April 30th, 2021
Studied CSE at PEC Chandigarh

The answer probably is no. It is because you cannot always be certain about what the future beholds. My brother secured himself ECE in PEC Chandigarh some years back and pursued it. While at the same time, some of his friends decided to take another chance with JEE and dropped. There was no significant variation that they could achieve, which is rather unfortunate enough. But, at the same time, it depends on how your preparations are in the meantime.

If you choose to drop, there will be several issues you have to face. You are most likely to experience pressure to perform well by peers and family. One of my brother’s friends who dropped never actually scored below 180 in the institute’s mock tests, however, he missed even touching 180 in the examination only because of his state of mind a few days before the main test, during his revision period. That means, there can be uncertain events. 

CSE at PEC Chandigarh is not a bad choice. It has decent placement statistics, you can check the official website for the same. The crucial point is having a backup plan regardless of the circumstance. It will help you support your own probable situations if you opt to take the examination.

Having said that, preparing for JEE mains yet again, while you pursue a degree is not that difficult if you are preserving.

What is the value of an EPGCOM from IIM Kozhikode?

A
Admin Posted On : January 23rd, 2024

EPGCOM is one of the best certification courses offered by IIM Kozhikode. 

If you’ve worked for a while in the operations domain, and wish to climb the ladder in your company, this is an ideal course for you. It is meant for professionals with some amount of work experience. 

It demands a fundamental understanding of operations, and is not meant for freshers or professionals with zero experience in this domain. Moreover, the course does not offer any placement assistance. The faculty and teaching methodology for EPGCOM is top notch, which is obvious as IIM Kozhikode is a renowned management college. 

Overall, the course is good, but only for professionals with experience in the operations domain.

How do I change my PhD guide in IIT Kharagpur?

AA
Aishwarya Anand Posted On : March 28th, 2023
Ph. D. from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP)

You should have a plausible reason justifying your guide change during your Ph.D. at IIT Kharagpur. One such reason can be very slow progress or laid back attitude. There might be any other compatible issues as well that might hinder your progress in getting the required training for a Ph.D. degree.

Once you are certain that your reason is one that needs to be addressed, present your stance to your Head of the Department, who will call a meeting of your doctoral scrutiny committee (DSC). You will be asked to present the case in front of the DSC members and your guide who has to agree to release you from his guidance. Once you have been released, another faculty member of the same department should volunteer to take you under his umbrella.

Concludingly, there are 3 major requisites for Ph.D. guide change

  • A concrete reason like no progress 
  • The faculty guide should be ready to release you happily
  • Another faculty guide should be ready to take you under his guidance.

These may look like simple steps but sometimes can be very difficult and challenging.

Which IIM should I choose among IIM Udaipur, IIM Ranchi, IIM Trichy, IIM Rohtak, IIM Kashipur, and IIM Raipur?

RS
Rashi Singh Posted On : July 31st, 2021
Completed MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Udaipur (2020)

A friend of mine from school happens to be a former student of IIM Udaipur. From what I heard from her, IIM Udaipur lays stress on entrepreneurship right from the get-go.

Entrepreneurship:

Various opportunities for start-ups are provided to the students. Right from the students choosing to leave a summer internship to the students who aspire to become entrepreneurs in the future; IIM Udaipur gives opportunities to each and every one.

It offers stipends for covering the basic costs of living. The stipends ensure that the students do not get distracted by their day-to-day spending and focus on the big picture of starting a venture.

The institute also provides placement holidays where the students are allowed to use the services of the campus placement at a later date. They, however, have to use the services within two years of graduation.

Faculty:

The Japanese model of faculty development is followed by IIM Udaipur. The process of selection is tough but after the appointment of the faculty, they are benefited by the support from the institution. The goal is that each member of the faculty will become well established in the fields they have chosen. May it be the NIRF ranking or UT Dallas ranking, they have the final say in this respect.

Research:

In terms of research, IIM Udaipur is in the top five.

Achievement:

In terms of international ranking also, IIM Udaipur has an enviable position be it in the QS World Ranking or FT MiM Ranking. It was awarded the accreditation of AACSB when it was the youngest institute in the country.

From the time IIM Udaipur came into the radar, it has been trying to change that situation in the hopes of creating a better brand name in the future and attracting more aspiring students so that they can lead.
