Is the MNC branch in IIT Kharagpur preferential over CSE in IIT Bhubaneswar, Indore or Dhanbad?
When it comes to MNC at IIT Kharagpur, the course is primarily focused on Mathematics, while only a small portion is related to coding or computer sciences. However, this can actually work to your advantage because the course structure of MNC department at IIT Kgp offers you an equal opportunity to enhance your skills in coding as well as in Finance or Analytics.
Moreover, if you happen to fall in love with your course, you also have the opportunity to pursue a Phd in Applied Mathematics as you will be graduating with an MSc degree.
Besides the academic advantages, you can also benefit from the well-developed Institute culture and Placement Cell of IIT Kharagpur, which can help shape your career. Taking all of these factors into consideration, I strongly recommend that you consider pursuing MNC at IIT Kharagpur.
What are the final placement stats for the PGDBA (jointly offered by ISI Kolkata, IITKGP and IIM Calcutta)?
Despite the economic slowdown, the Post Graduate Diploma in Business Analytics (PGDBA) program offered jointly by IIM Calcutta, ISI Kolkata, and IT Kharagpur witnessed a growth in the average and median remuneration of students from the previous year. The average remuneration and median remuneration grew by 12.75% and 14%, respectively, with an average salary of INR 29.71 LPA achieved and the highest offer of INR 42.50 Lacs. Additionally, 77.41% of the class received full-time job offers (PPO).
The PGDBA program is a rigorous academic program that spans three semesters, with each semester being held at one of the three premier institutes. During the coursework at ISI Kolkata, students develop expertise in statistical learning theories for analytics, while at IT Kharagpur, they apply these theories to Machine learning and Artificial intelligence. At IIM Calcutta, candidates learn how to utilize these tools in functional areas of management.
Will a 65% in graduation be a deterrent during the placement process of a B-school like IMT, IMI, TAPMI, IIT-KGP?
A 65% in graduation shouldn’t be a deterrent during placements. Companies generally look at how you perform in your MBA. The academic percentages are only there for cut-offs and having more than 60% for that is sufficient.
During placements, you should be able to showcase your skills and those skills should align with what the firm is looking for at that point in time. Make sure you participate in competitions as it opens up your mind and helps you gain significant knowledge on a number of different topics and perspectives. Perform above average in class when it comes to academics/cgpa, and have some achievements under your belt. That will help you stand out.
Which MBA college should I prefer (background is from B.tech hons (CS) and have 15 months work experience), IIT KGP or IIM Trichy?
The best way to answer your query is to mention the core highlights of MBA from both institutes.
IIT
- The MBA course here is more of technical nature as the program is one of the many departments of a huge Technical institute
- The peers are very talented and genius
- The small batch size increases the opportunities for placements
IIM Trichy
- The MBA experience here is much more diverse and challenging. You will find peers from diverse backgrounds.
- The pedagogy here is top notch as they specialize in this area
- IIM Trichy has a better academic rigor and their style of Management education is too good
- IIMs offer better food and infrastructural facilities
I will sum up my answer with 2 points. If you are looking for job prospects outside India, IITs are a good choice. But within India, IIMs are a better option as their style of Management surpasses that of IITs.
Which is a better choice among industrial systems engineering at IIT Kharagpur and electrical engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar?
It is tough to choose one institute over the other as all institutes have a different approach to teaching, subject curriculum, etc.
I can say with my personal experience that Industrial Systems Engineering at IIT Kharagpur is better than Electrical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar. IIT Kharagpur is one of the oldest and best engineering colleges in India.
For the Industrial Systems Engineering branch, top recruiters like American Express, Capillary Technologies, Bosch, Tata Motors, etc. offer an average package between 13 LPA to 15 LPA, and the average placement rate for this course is over 75%.
Even though the statistics for Electrical Engineering placements at IIT Bhubaneswar are better, IIT KGP offers a much stronger alumni network and a richer legacy. To add to this, the flexible curriculum of IIT KGP makes sure that its students can easily fit into any sector.
After considering all the factors, I would suggest you choose Industrial Systems Engineering at IIT KGP over Electrical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar. But I would also point out that you must ultimately choose the branch which interests you the most.
Which is better, IIT Bhubaneswar ECE or IIT Kharagpur Aerospace ?
IIT Bhubaneswar ECE is a better choice among these. It offers better placements. IIT Bhubaneswar placements 2022 had witnessed an average CTC of INR 22.40 LPA for ECE. 100% of students got placed from the branch. The highest CTC offered was INR 44.10 LPA.
Aerospace Engineering is a niche field. The career prospect in Aerospace is limited. Choose IIT KGP, only if you are passionate about the field and want to pursue higher studies.
Will it be worth doing mtech in transportation from iit bhubaneswar instead choosing water resources from iit kgp ?
This totally depends upon your interest in the subject. You should give preference to the subject rather than a degree from college because your subject will shape your future.
The school of water resources is one of the pioneer centers for education and training in water quality and quantity management. There is an advanced research water quality lab in IIT Kharagpur. It is an old IIT and will provide more opportunities for higher studies in foreign universities, people also go to foreign universities from IIT Bhubaneswar but opportunities in IIT KGP will be more.
The water resources have limited scope considering the Indian employment scenario. If you are giving preference to the subject then join IIT Bhubaneswar. If your preference is not the subject then join IIT KGP because exposure and opportunities will be more in IIT KGP. A student planning for Ph.D. after M-tech will have much better scopes in IIT KGP than IIT Bhubaneswar.
Why there are so many (nearly 200) dropouts every year from IIT Delhi, IIT Kharagpur?
There are many dropouts every year from IIT Delhi and IIT Kharagpur. This is because there is intense academic pressure on the students at the IITs. The IITs have strict academics, and the huge coursework can be very overwhelming for the students.
The students are under constant pressure to produce the best results. This causes most of them to suffer and eventually drop out. They face burnout and stress, which is why they take such a big step.
Another reason is that some students enter the IITs with unrealistic expectations. These are obviously not met, so they choose to drop out. Some students also take this step because of financial difficulties and family emergencies. Then there are students who get good job opportunities, and so they choose to drop out during their PG or doctoral degrees. There is also a group of students who take this step to follow their passions, as they come to realize that IITs were not their dream after all.
These are the most common reasons why students end up dropping out from top IITs like IIT Delhi and IIT KGP.
Which dual course is better, IIT Kharagpur’s manufacturing science and engineering or IIT Bhubaneswar mechanical engineering?
IIT Kharagpur’s manufacturing science and engineering course is better than IIT Bhubaneswar’s mechanical engineering. IIT Kharagpur is well-recognized nationwide for offering excellent academics.
IIT KGP held Rank 6 in the NIRF Engineering Ranking for 2023. Its Manufacturing Science and Engineering course will open plenty of career opportunities for you in the US and Europe. This subject is very much sought after in foreign markets.
IIT Kharagpur has a very well-structured academic curriculum for the students, it offers excellent research facilities along with a highly qualified faculty. The course curriculum for Manufacturing Science and Engineering at IIT KGP has subjects related to manufacturing processes, materials, automation, quality control, and more.
IIT KGP offers practical learning alongside rich academics to help its students excel in their career. IIT KGP will provide you unparalleled exposure.
Even though Mechanical Engineering from IIT Bhubaneswar is also a good option, I would recommend you choose Manufacturing Science and Engineering at IIT Kharagpur.
I have complete bsc in industrial chemistry, can i do msc in industrial chemsitry?
The answer will vary depending on the particular institution and its requirements if you have earned a B.Sc. in Industrial Chemistry and would like to pursue an M.Sc. in Industrial Chemistry. IIT Kharagpur does not, however, provide an M.Sc. programme that focuses on "Industrial Chemistry." Instead, applicants who have finished a B.Sc. with a specific number of chemistry subjects are eligible to apply for an M.Sc. in Chemistry (and integrated M.Sc.+Ph.D. in Chemistry).
Eligibility for IIT Kharagpur’s M.Sc in Chemistry:
- B.Sc (Chemistry) or equivalent with at least 55% marks (50% for SC/ST/PwD) from a recognized university.
- Candidates must have studied Mathematics at the 10+2 level.
- For integrated M.Sc+Ph.D. Similar criteria apply, but some programs may require a certain CGPA for progression to the Ph.D. phase
