How good is finance in IMT Ghaziabad? What are the placement opportunities? How is it compared to PGDM general?

AG

Bcom(H) from University of Lucknow (Graduated 2019)

IMT Ghaziabad is called the Mecca for Marketing. It’s well known for its specialization in Marketing, Sales, and Business Development based roles. I don't think it offers similar opportunities for finance as well. The placements are pretty good but getting internship offers is difficult for someone who is switching careers from IT to Finance. 

So if you really want to pursue a career in Finance after your MBA from IMT Ghaziabad, you can try CFA, and FRM and have some past background in Finance

What should be my best pick, CSE at MNIT Jaipur or IT at MNNIT Allahabad?

AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : October 10th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

Both the colleges are well-renowned. But there are certain things I would like to bring to your notice-

As per college rankings, MNNIT is the top NIT in North India. It witnesses very good placements in IT/CSE. The average package for IT is almost at par with that for CSE. This year, the average package was around 24 LPA for IT and 27 LPA for CSE. The CSE students at MNIT Jaipur receive comparatively way lower packages. 

At MNNIT, CS, and IT students have the same curriculum till 2nd year. Even after the 2nd year, only 1 or 2 subjects are different. The coding culture is great, and coders perform really well on various platforms like CodeChef, HackerEarth, Hackerrank, etc. 

I would recommend you choose IT at MNNIT Allahabad.

How do I choose between IIT Delhi engineering physics, civil, production & industrial, and chemical engineering?

PS
Pawan Sinha Posted On : April 5th, 2023
B.Tech Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (2020)

I will restrict my answer to Engineering Physics and Chemicals only as I know the same only. 

  • The major criterion followed at IIT Delhi by all the branches is a well-maintained CG. To secure good placements one has to constantly score a good CG throughout the program.
  • During your admission, the department does not play any role but your 85 percent constraint on minimum possible strength does.
  • Engineering Physics is a unique branch for those highly passionate about Physics and want to pursue higher studies in the same
  • To secure core jobs, one has to move to MTech in Engineering Physics from BTech in Engineering Physics.
  • For Chemical Engineering students, BTech is more than enough to secure decent packages and great research opportunities outside India.
  • Consultancy and Analytics jobs are offered equally to students of all the departments 
  • Engineering Physics graduates usually take up consultancy or IT jobs 
  • Chemical Engineering is the most laid-back department of IIT Delhi with very flexible academics thus making it easy to maintain a decent CG throughout. 

I wouldn’t suggest anyone go for Engineering Physics if they have no intention of pursuing it later. Instead, look for other options in BTech and explore your interests.

Which is better IIT Guwahati CSE or IIT Delhi EE or IIT KGP CSE 5yrs?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : May 5th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

In my opinion, an IIT KGP CSE dual degree is a better option than IIT Guwahati CSE. Here’s why

  • You get an additional degree in just one or two years
  • You don’t have to sit for another entrance exam like GATE 
  • Companies that open profiles for BTech also open the same profiles for Dual Degree students.

IIT Guwahati is also a good option for CSE. However, one should opt for IIT Delhi EE only if

You are confident that one will be able to change branch within a year. This is because you will end up studying CS courses with external coaching.

To secure a job, the best options are CSE or MBA. For MBA, your branch does not really matter, only your institute does.

Between an M.Sc chemistry in BITS Hyderabad and CSE in VIT, which is better?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : December 22nd, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Based on mine and my friends’ experiences, here are some points I would like for you to consider in this regard-

  1. The branch should always be your top priority. For a dual degree in CSE at BITS Hyderabad, you’ll need to score more than 7.6 CG. That would mean an average +30 in most subjects (relative grading). Phoenix Dual is a better option than VIT CSE.
  2. Dual degree will take away a lot from your campus life. You won’t be able to enjoy clubs and events to the fullest.
  3. BITS Hyderabad undoubtedly has a better crowd quality. Moreover, it carries the prestigious ‘BITS’ tag.
  4. BITS will give you a more quality campus experience with better academics.

The decision has to be made by you, but I hope that these points will guide you. Whatever you choose, make sure to maintain a good academic performance in college, so that you end up getting decent job offers.

Which should my daughter choose, a CSE from IGDTUW or a ECE from NSIT/DTU/IIIT Delhi?

KY
Kavita Yadav Posted On : May 4th, 2026

this is actually a really good question and the answer depends on what career path your daughter is aiming for.

CSE at IGDTUW — it's an all-women's government university in Delhi, excellent campus environment for women students, strong alumni network in Delhi tech companies, government college fees (very affordable), and CSE is the best branch to be in for software careers. the women-only campus is a genuine advantage in terms of safety and focused academic culture.

ECE at NSIT/DTU/IIIT Delhi — all three are mixed-gender, more prestigious institutions. IIIT Delhi ECE specifically is excellent for tech — the institute has a strong coding culture and ECE students regularly get SWE roles. DTU and NSUT ECE are decent but the branch doesn't give the same software career advantage as CSE.

honest recommendation:

  • if she wants a software/tech career — CSE at IGDTUW is probably better than ECE at DTU/NSUT. branch matters more than college here
  • if the option is ECE at IIIT Delhi specifically — that's a tough call, IIIT Delhi is genuinely strong and ECE students do well in placements there
  • for family comfort and safety — IGDTUW being all-women and govt-managed is a significant factor for many families

Which is better EEE at IIT Guwahati or CSE at DTU?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

While IIT is a globally recognized brand, DTU is no less the mother institution of reputed colleges like IIT Delhi and FMS. It has been established got 83 years and is older than IITs. However, the institute is always the secondary thing to consider, the branch being the primary factor to focus on. Determine whether your interests lie in becoming a Computer Science engineer or an Electronics Engineer.

Personally, I would suggest you go for DTU CSE because of the following reasons:

Faculty: DTU has a rich pool of highly esteemed and well-qualified Professors with over an experience of more than 30 years of teaching

Campus: Located in a metro city, you are exposed to city life. You can also prepare for IAS, MBA, GRE, Language Courses, or coding courses as Delhi has the best coaching institutes.

DTU has a rich campus culture with over 120+ societies and 15+ Technical Teams.

Alumni

There are many alumni of DTU who have made significant contributions in various fields.

Here are a few examples:

  • Vijay Shekhar Sharma, Founder of Paytm
  • Praveen Sinha: Co-Founder Jabong.com
  • Ravi Grover: Director, Homi Bhabha National Institute. Ex- principal Adviser to Dept. of Atomic Energy, India. 
  • Durjoy Datta: Bestselling author
  • Raghbir Singh Bhola: Arjuna Award winner, Olympian.
  • Sachin Garg: Author
  • Subhav Sinha: Inventor
  • Niketan Madhok : Supermodel
  • Krishnan Ganesh: Founder - TutorVista
  • Sushant Singh Rajput: actor

DTU has a great placement scenario and the table below is a testament to the same. The highest CTC was offered by Palantir followed by Amazon.

Which is the better option - PICT for IT, VIT Pune for IT, or WCE Sangli for CSE?

AC
Abhinav Chowdhury Posted On : October 13th, 2023
Lives in Pune, Maharashtra, India

My friend was in a similar dilemma when he was left with these three options. Based on his experience, PICT is the best option in Pune for computers. The institute provides an environment and resources suitable for working on quality projects. The academic ambiance is excellent and you will get a chance to develop yourself. Students with a good CGOA bag good offers while some open their own startups.

WCE is a decent college with a good campus and faculty pool. The students make it to average companies like TCS Infosys cognizant. It’s the best college in the Kolhapur and Solapur University area. Most students opt for a job rather than pursuing higher studies.

VIT has the added advantage of being in Pune so if you ever face this situation, choose VIT over WCE. The preference order therefore is, PICT>VIT>WCE.

Which one is better: IIT Kanpur civil, IIT Guwahati or IIT BHU mechanical?

SG
Sohini Ghose Posted On : February 15th, 2022
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati

If you are certain about your branch choice, then go for Civil at IIT Kanpur. If you aren’t sure about the branch then choosing IIT Kanpur among these three IITs will be better. In 2021, NIRF ranked IIT Kanpur #6 in the country. Although it’s not easy you can change your branch after a year. But you can’t change your college.
