How is IIIT Bhubaneswar CSE? Is it better than NIT Patna IT and UIET CSE?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : August 31st, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

As a student of UIET CSE, I will share some merits and demerits of the same with you-

Merits-

  1. If you are a good coder, UIET offers decent placement opportunities in the CSE branch.
  2. There is a 24*7 library facility.
  3. You’ll get the ‘Panjab University’ tag. 
  4. It is located in Chandigarh which is a serene, beautiful, and well-planned city.
  5. Your personality and leadership qualities will improve.

Demerits-

  1. The teaching environment isn’t good. You’ll have to learn by yourself, regardless of branch.
  2. The tag of ‘IITs’ or ‘NITs’ holds much more significance.
  3. You might not get the desired placement. In that case, you’ll be sitting for some competitive exam. For a placement in 4.5-5 LPA slab, you’ll have to work hard.

NIT Patna IT is a good option because it offers good placements and an NIT tag. As far as IIIT Bhubaneswar CSE is concerned, you can check all the information related to it and compare it with the other two.

What should I prefer between NSUT CSAI, IIIT Allahabad IT and MNNIT Allahabad CS?

AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : October 13th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

Both IIIT Allahabad and MNNIT are highly regarded engineering colleges in North India offering premium quality education. Placements-wide, MNNIT CSE is slightly better compared to both NSUT and IIITA. In my opinion, the preference order should be

MNNIT CSE >= IIITA IT > NSUT CS/AI

MNNIT is the first choice because it’s on Eid the top 5 NITs with the most sought-after branch CSE. IIIT Allahabad is also a great choice for CSE because it has a CS-tailored curriculum and ambiance. 

Overall I feel if you are certain of joining an IT company, and have an interest in coding and computers go for IIIT Allahabad IT or MNNIT Allahabad. If you are unsure of your branch preference go for NSUT.

How is MSU Baroda for doing a BSc in Physics?

PT
Panth Thakkar Posted On : December 29th, 2022
B.a in Philosophy & History, The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda

The BSc course in Physics at MSU Baroda is at par with the top institutes like IISERs and IITs.

The infrastructure is the best in the whole of Gujarat state. The faculty for this course however is a bit lacking in comparison to other courses. Some are not skilled enough while some are not interested in teaching at all.

The laboratories are decked with decent equipments but during the First and Second years, they are almost of no use. The third year has a lot of lab sessions that should not be missed

The theoretical exams are pretty easy as most of the questions are based on what has been taught in the class.

MSU has 2 major libraries ( SSMT and SHMT) that have a wide range of books on almost every subject.

Research is mainly conducted in areas of condensed matter, Spectroscopy, X Ray diffraction and Nuclear Physics. Seminars and conferences are held throughout the year on campus. 

My opinion is that MSU is not much of a good choice for a BSc in Physics, especially if you are coming from a state other than Gujarat.

Should I get into an MBA at Sydenham or try for an MSc. in Finance at JBIMS?

RD
Rochella Dsouza Posted On : February 21st, 2023
MMS in Marketing, Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (Graduated 2015)

Anyone but you can decide what’s best for you. Only you can make an informed decision based on your expectations and ability to take risks. However, I will recommend you opt MSc in Finance if you are sure about your career in the Finance sector and are ready for Finance roles. In case you are not very sure, try contacting some seniors from the institute or doing some research on LinkedIn. If even after researching your gut is not very sure about Finance then opt for a core MBA only. 

By taking MBA, you can test your inclinations throughout the first year and find out if Finance is really your cup of tea rather than joining an MSc and regretting it later. A slight comparison between the 2 courses is given below

Brand: Brand-wise MBA/PGDM of Sydenham is a much older and bigger name in comparison to the MSc Finance of JBIMS.

Scope: The MSc in Finance at JBIMS has a much greater scope than MBA from Sydenham.

At JBIMS, both MMS and MSc Finance offer similar opportunities. Although many students exclusively target MSc. In finance, there tends to be an obvious preference for MMS. So in the near future either MSc Finance could be a separate course from MMS or even be discontinued. Not much can be said about this. So the only factor you should consider while deciding is your own inclinations.

Which college for MBA should I join- NMIMS Hyderabad, SCIT Pune or IBS Hyderabad?

SK
Sridhar Kattagoni Posted On : February 15th, 2023
MBA from SVKM's NMIMS (Graduated 2019)

I personally will recommend you join NMIMS rather than IBS Hyderabad. Some major reasons that support my recommendation are 

  • The institute operates under the NMIMS University’s methodology and you also get to include its brand name in your CV.
  • The institute is AMBA accredited thus meeting global standards in education.
  • The NMAT cutoff is higher than ISBAT thereby ensuring the quality of crowd and placement opportunities 
  • Associating with the NMIMS brand will let you avail lifetime benefits

NMIMS has a decent placement scenario.NMIMS Hyderabad is known for achieving a 100% placement record. The institute successfully conducted its placement drive for the 2019-21 batch. 100% of the participating students got placed. The final placement report for the 2019-21 batch has been released. According to the report, the highest CTC rose up to INR 15 LPA. Students received an average CTC of INR 9.59 LPA.

SCIT has released the final placement statistics for MBA ITBM and MBA DSDA batch 2020-22. The highest package offered to MBA ITBM students was INR 32.29 LPA and for MBA DSDA it was INR 32.21 LPA. The placement rate recorded for both courses was 100%. Over 30 companies participated in MBA ITBM placements and more than 25 companies were part of the MBA DSDA placement drive in 2022.

Compare the ROI and check the field of specialization before making the final decision.

Is the IIEST Shibpur IT 5 year dual course better than the IIITM Gwalior IT 5 year integrated or the IIITDM Jabalpur CSE BTech?

RA
Rituparna Acharya Posted On : February 26th, 2021
Bachelor of Engineering Computer Science, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur

One of my friends was a student of this institute, but he did not know about the 5 years dual degree program in IIEST Shibpur. He told me that no one even knows about this new university's dual degree course; thereby, if you love to get risks, then take admission to enter here.

Besides, he told me that he was also unaware of the reputation along with the education quality of the other two institutes. However, in IIEST Shibpur, you will get immense learning opportunities; additionally, education quality is also not bad as it is an ancient institute. Rather it improves a lot after becoming INI.

It is challenging to state which institute is better if the student doesn’t know the institute properly. Besides, it is also important to understand what is actually better as the thinking of a student.

However, you are from outside of West Bengal, then IIIT Gwalior must be the first priority, although IIEST Shibpur is a reputed institute. The faculties of IIEST Shibpur are experienced enough, but most of them are Bengali. So, preference will be given to students from West Bengal, as the home state would be a great advantage. They will be able to gain all the opportunities like communication. It is because the students from West Bengal can speak in Bengali far better way than the others.

If there is a comparison between IIIT Gwalior and Jabalpur, then the suggestion will be for IIIT Gwalior, as it offers better placement than the other. Besides, it also has vastly alleged alumni and knowledgeable faculties.

What should I opt for, mathematics and computing at IIT Dhanbad or computer science at IIT Palakkad?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : July 15th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

Both institutes are relatively new and enjoy a similar status and brand value in the education world. IIT Palakkad is a new IIT while IIT Dhanbad although an old institution has recently been given the IIT title. So that leaves us with preference as the major factor in determining which institute is the right one for you.

MNC is a blend of both Math and Computing concepts and is often very rigorous. The mathematical proofs and theorems form a major part of the curriculum and CS comprises just a minor portion of it. Unless you are a math lover or are genuinely interested in it, this branch might be very challenging for you as the concepts are very advanced and nothing like what you studied before. CSE on the other hand is an evergreen branch with broad prospects. 

Moreover, the faculty of IIT Palakkad are from IITM also thus improving the quality of education offered. The infrastructure is excellent with great accommodation facilities.

What should I choose: MBA (EPGP) from IIM Bangalore or MBA (full-time) from Mannheim Business School, Germany? I have 8 years of experience in IT/Telecom and want to get into Product Management.

SG
Shantanu Gupta Posted On : December 21st, 2022
M.B.A. from Indian Institute of Management Bangalore

Rather than telling you what to choose, I will list down the pros and cons of both the B Schools and leave it to you to make the final decision.

Mannheim Business School, Germany

Pros 

  • Being one of the most reputed B Schools in Germany, you will get a high-paying job right after completing your course.
  • Mannheim itself is an experience as people from all over the world come here and you get to attend some amazing events too.

Cons

  • This B School charges a whopping fee of around 32000-35000 euros. And the fees do not include living expenses (9000 euros)
  • You will have to learn German especially if you want to get into product management to deal with clients. That is an additional expense.

IIM Bangalore 

Pros

  • Fees are comparatively less than that of Mannheim Business School.
  • Faculty is supportive and extremely experienced.
  • Living expenses are included in the fees themselves.
  • The placements are top notch and with an above-average grade, you can easily get placed at a reputed firm with a high package.

Cons

  • Being located in the heart of the city the only disadvantage that IIM Bangalore students face is the heavy traffic.

Weighing both the pros and cons you can now make a decision easily. In my opinion, go for the German B School if you have plans for permanently settling abroad. But if you want to eventually stay in your home country then IIM Bangalore is the best option for you.

Which would be a better choice between SPJain Information Management specialization and MDI Gurgaon PGPM?

MK
Maruti Konduri Posted On : February 23rd, 2023
Former Admission Coordinator for NMIMS

A specialization in any field be it Information Management or Finance, will limit your job prospects whereas a general PGDM will keep your options open. By choosing the IM specialization you can expect the following roles

  • Consulting (strategy, operations, technology)
  • Sales/pre-sales (software)
  • Product managers
  • IT managers (corporate IT roles)
  • Analytics
  • Banking

If these are exactly the kind of roles you were looking for, then specialization in IM is not a bad option. But if you want to explore more fields then PGDM is best for you.

It’s important to note that these roles will automatically be offered to you even if you choose the MDI Gurgaon PGDM course in addition to other job profiles in Marketing, Finance, Ops, etc.

So choosing PGDM will keep your options open, whereas choosing SP Jain will limit your options as you have to stay committed to your specialization both in terms of what you learn and what jobs you are looking for. However, if you are choosing SP Jain because of personal preferences like location, batch size, brand name, or course, then it is altogether a different topic.
