What is going to be a better option among the following B schools - VGSOM, new IIMs (Ranchi, Trichy, Raipur), or NMIMS?

RT
Rajat Tokas Posted On : February 8th, 2023
Xaviers || NIT DURGAPUR || L&T || MDI gurgaon(2020-2022)

When it comes to choosing a business school, the competition is fierce and the options can be overwhelming. Three institutes that are considered to be among the top in the country are the Vinod Gupta School of Management (VGSOM) at IIT Kharagpur, the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ranchi, and the Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS).

If you are interested in an operations profile, then VGSOM is a great choice. It is considered to be one of the best institutes in the country for operations specialization, after NITIE. Additionally, the return on investment (ROI) is high. IIM Ranchi, on the other hand, may have a lower average package compared to the other two institutes, but it has the prestige of the IIM tag and a decent profile. The hostels are also fabulous, with single rooms available for students.

NMIMS is considered to be more costly and the batch strength is over 500 students. The top 150-200 students get superb packages and roles that are at par with other top B-schools, however, the next lot of students may have a lot of start-ups, etc. If you want to play safe, VGSOM or IIM Ranchi might be the best option.

However, if you are willing to take a risk, NMIMS might be a good choice as the profiles there are really good. It's ultimately up to you to decide which institute aligns best with your career goals and objectives. Rest assured, whichever institute you choose, you will be choosing a great institution as all three are among the top institutes in the country.

IGIT Sarang is one of the best government colleges in Orissa. It is also only one government college of Orissa that is eligible to submit an Institutional Development Proposal. The admission process for Electrical Engineering is based on the results of JEE mains and Orissa-JEE. 

Punjab Agriculture University holds #51 rank among universities in India issued by NIRF ranking, 2019. Admission for B. Tech in agriculture is wholly based on the results of JEE mains followed by interviews and counseling. The placement rate is also good for this university. 

Tabulated below gives a brief overview of both institutions:

Which is better, IIIT Lucknow for CSE or NIT Patna for ECE?

AS
Anuj Singh Posted On : June 10th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, National Institutes of Technology (2020)

I have friends studying at both IIIT Lucknow and NIT Patna, and according to their first-hand experience, IIIT Lucknow is the better choice here. Here’s what you need to know.

  • Curriculum: IIIT Lucknow has a great curriculumin terms of syllabus, classes, and coding culture. The competitive environment drives you to excel in every field.
  • Facilities: You will get high-tech facilities in IIIT Lucknow designed for engineering and coding. Events like Hackathons and other tech fests are equivalent to IIIT Allahabad.
  • Placements: My friend who completed his B.Tech from IIIT Lucknow experienced that your placement highly depends on how much you use online videos, courses to excel in your respective branch. Overall you need to be active and focus on improving your skills which might help you grab decent job packages. Moreover, the highest CTC recorded to 43 LPA while the average CTC is 18.4 LPA.

Check out some of the reasons why you shouldn’t choose NIT Patna.

  • Poor infrastructure: Unfortunately, the institute is not making much effort to improve facilities, organizing tech events. This is because they are currently focusing on the construction of the new campus of NIT Patna at Bihta near IIT Patna which is bound to be completed by 2024.
  • Poor accommodation: You will have to adjust to double or triple seater rooms because you won’t get a single-seater room in all of your 4 years. Also, the PG options are not good in the surrounding area.
  • Poor mess food: Just like the infrastructure, the Hostel Mess Committee is too reluctant to improve food quality in spite of knowing everything. Also, you won’t get any good quality restaurants nearby or any online food ordered after 10 pm.
  • Outdated curriculum: Institute is still following the old curriculum and has outdated labs. Even the Classrooms are too outdated with broken benches and no Projectors are used to teach.
  • Lack of extracurricular: There is a lack of proper clubs, sports facilities, tech-fests, and coding culture.

Overall, ECE at NIT Patna is not a good option. Go for CSE IIIT Lucknow any day for a great curriculum, great facilities, great location, and great placements. Also, the CSE branch gets you more chances of better placements in most colleges in India.

What is the better option, CS at NSUT or civil engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar ?

CG
Chahat Gulati Posted On : August 13th, 2020
B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior (2022)

If you wish to work in the government sector, there are very few jobs in CSE but if you want to go for corporate work life, you should go with CSE.

Considering placements, if you opt for CS at NSUT, the average package at NSUT is around 14 LPA and the median package is around 8 LPA considering some international offers which increase the average package by a huge amount. In IIT Bhubaneshwar, people from Civil get jobs in both core and software companies. The packages range from 6 LPA to 39 LPA with an average somewhere around 11.4 LPA.

The campus life at IIT Bhubaneshwar is better as compared to that at NSUT. There are three fests, many science, and non-technical clubs, etc. There are E-classrooms in the campus with faculty to student ratio of around 15:1. The infrastructure, being newly built, is quite impressive with good classrooms and hostels.

Is BIMTECH's PGDM Course better than its PGDM (Int. Business) Course?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : April 26th, 2023
Studied at Birla Institute of Management Technology

Personally, I believe that to be the case. Despite the fact that the topics can appear to be the same, the PGDM core contains all of the essential studies. Placements are roughly the same, however, there is an increased emphasis on key subjects. However, total competition is higher, and a greater emphasis is placed on attentiveness.

Which course is better for higher studies, textiles at IIT Delhi or chemical at IIT BHU?

PG
Prajukta Ghose Posted On : April 6th, 2023
Studied at the Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi

Ranking-wise the preference order of the above-mentioned courses is 

IIT Delhi > IIT Kanpur > IIT Roorkee > IIT BHU

Based on their closing rank, the branches can be arranged in the following order 

Chemical>Metallurgy>Textile 

This was based on general data, but if you have an inclination towards a specific branch, then go for it without much hesitation. Your passion will keep you motivated despite various challenges thrown at you. But in case you have no specific preference, then you can consider the college and branch ranking to make an informed decision.

Apart from CS and Electrical, students from most branches opt for non-core jobs which require much more than their core academics for placements. In that case, you can prefer IIT BHU over IIT Roorkee.

Ultimately, the final decision is yours to make. Choose wisely considering various factors like location, friends, etc,
