Which college will be better for civil engineening: NIT Allahabad or NIT Surathkal?

AS
Atul Srivastav Posted On : July 9th, 2021
B.Tech IT, NIT Allahabad (2019)

I know people from both NIT Allahabad and NIT Surathkal and based on the reviews I got from them, I will say the former is better. Choose Civil Engineering, only if you are genuinely interested in the branch. If you want placement after the completion of the course, you will have to work hard as there are not many core companies visiting the campus placement drive. However, the placement record for NIT Allahabad is better as compared to NIT Surathkal.

Here are some of the other reasons why you should give preference to NIT Allahabad.

  • The academic environment at the campus is great. You will experience healthy competition among peers. Many students prepare for competitive examinations such as GATE, CAT, IES, UPSC, etc. Back in 2017, three students from the Civil engineering branch secured AIR 1, AIR 2, and AIR 3 in GATE.
  • At NIT Allahabad, you can change your branch after the first year, if you maintain >7.5 CPI.
  • It has an impressive placement record. Here are the recent placement statistics for the CIvil branch.

Average CTC

7.35 LPA

Highest CTC

17 LPA

Placement Average

32.05%

No of students eligible for placement

78

No of students placed

25

  • The laboratories are well equipped.

However, before you decide on any college you should do your own research on the branch at both institutes.

Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

NL Dalmia has a specific focus on finance, which makes it a good option for candidates looking to specialize in finance. On the other hand, PUMBA offers a more general management education with a focus on practical learning and industry exposure.

BIMTECH, Greater Noida offers a good curriculum with a focus on innovation and entrepreneurship. The institute has a strong industry connection and offers a variety of electives to choose from. However, its ranking is lower than NL Dalmia and PUMBA.

What will be better for me - Electrical Engineering from NIT Kurukshetra or CSE/IT from IIIT Lucknow or Guwahati?

DC
Deepti Chahal Posted On : May 31st, 2021
B.E. in Computer Engineer from Lalbhai Dalpatbhai College of Engineering (2019)

My sister did her B.Tech from NIT Kurukshetra as it is one of the top-rated NIT and she had a wonderful time there.

So, I would suggest you to go for Electrical Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra. However to help you make a better decision here’s a comparison between the three colleges:

Particulars

NIT Kurukshetra (EE)

IIIT Lucknow (CSE)

IIIT Guwahati (CSE)

Fees (total)

2.36 lacs

9.72 lacs

9 lacs

Highest Package offered

17 LPA

43 LPA

17 LPA

Average package offered

7.44 LPA

18.4 LPA

10.2 LPA

Placement rate

66.09%

100%

76%

If you choose a better college over a branch then you will have an advantage during placements as companies would be aching to visit for hiring new students. You can have a better branch but it won’t matter as you wouldn’t get enough placement opportunities. Students from NIT are placed in some of the top multinational companies.

One of my friends studied at SIBM and according to him, the college is known for its placements. Small batches and teaching standards. They only accept SNAP scores.

Although both NIDM and SIBM Hyderabad are very good management institutions you should choose SIBM Hyderabad because of the following reasons:

Which is a good choice, PEC Chandigarh or NIT Meghalaya?

PS
Pavan Sharma Posted On : May 2nd, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2022)

PEC Chandigarh and NIT Meghalaya, neither of them are good colleges as of now due to some major reasons. 

NIT Meghalaya:

  • NIT Meghalaya is situated in the northeastern part of India and it is a newly built NIT. 
  • It now comes at the bottom among all the NITs of our country. This is because of the poor and temporary management faculty and it doesn't even have a campus of its own. 
  • The placements here are currently very poor as this college is newly built. It will take its time to get exposure and recognition which can attract top companies to visit for campus placements. 

PEC Chandigarh:

  • PEC Chandigarh is not a great college as students scoring lower ranks like 40k or more can also get admission at PEC.
  • The placement records are also very poor here. And being at PEC Chandigarh you will also not get the NITian tag which can be very helpful while looking for jobs. 

It is suggested to take a year drop and start preparing for JEE Main properly and aim to score higher marks. Appear for the January exam and not the April exam as almost every student targets for it and it can be very difficult to score higher rankings as competition will get very tough. January exam will have less competition and it will be easy to get higher rankings which can indeed open possibilities to get admission in one of the top IITs or NITs.

What should be preferred among IMI Delhi PGDMHR and XIMB MBA- HR?

SD
Shruti Das Posted On : July 2nd, 2021
MBA-HRM from Xavier University Bhubaneswar (2019)

XIMB-HR and XAHR are both one and the same. The former has been renamed to the latter. XAHR ranks above IMI New Delhi in HR. Not because of the placement prospectus but because of the faculties. Most of the faculties are from have great industry experience.

The course is as per the global standards of SHRM. They provides 100% placement in both finals and summers.

You also get the experience of the outbound learning program organized by TSAF or TATA steel adventure foundation. The new campus is a little outside the main city and the only advantage of IMI New Delhi is its location. XIMB-HR and XAHR are both one and the same.
