Is the electrical engineering department the best in IIT Bombay?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : March 21st, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

I haven’t heard of many people who actually join Electrical Engineering because they want to genuinely pursue Electrical. Rather most students take Electrical because their JEE Rank did not allow them admission to any other branch. In fact, some even take Electrical Engineering and opt for minors that match with their areas of interest.

When it comes to interdisciplinary subjects, IIT Bombay provides the perfect chance to do so. What usually happens is that students are unaware of their area of interest while choosing their branch during admission. As a result they end up taking disciplines that match their ranks rather than interests.

However, if you are clear about your choice of branch, don’t hesitate and go for it without thinking much of your rank. Although difficult, you can always change your branch if you later regret choosing that specific branch.

I always suggest aspirants only choose the branch on the basis of their preferences and not the placements. Even if you land a good job, you will never be satisfied if you are working in an area that does not intrigue or excite you.

Which is better CSE at MNNIT Allahabad or CSE at MNIT Jaipur in terms of placement, infrastructure, environment and faculty?

PK
Prayag Kashyap Posted On : October 19th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

Both are really good colleges. They are considered as the top 2 NITs of North India. 

In CSE, a lot depends on your individual efforts. 

  1. Faculty- Both the colleges have good and average teachers. 
  1. Exposure- In terms of exposure, Jaipur takes a slight lead over Allahabad. It is a capital city with an international airport. Its location makes Jaipur a more favorable place for HRs to visit. 
  1. Infrastructure- MNIT has a better infrastructure. It offers single hostel rooms to second year students. Its campus is spread over 300 acres, and VLTC is the largest lecture hall complex in Asia. There isn’t much strictness for freshers. MNNIT is spread over 220 acres, but its hostels are in a poor condition. Even second year students are expected to live in four seater rooms. The authorities are strict towards freshers till the fresher party.
  1. Placements- In terms of placements, MNNIT has a slight edge over MNIT Jaipur. This year, 94.47% B.Tech CS students were successfully placed from MNNIT Allahabad. The average package for them was 27.57 LPA, and the highest package was 1.35 CPA.

Both the colleges are better in one or the other aspect. You should choose the one that best suits your personal preferences.

How is the MBA from Ambedkar University of Delhi?

SB
Sylvia Basu Posted On : January 13th, 2022
studied at Ambedkar University Delhi (2019)

Ambedkar University Delhi (AUD) has many things that stand out when compared to other B-schools in India.

  • It is a government university, therefore it has a tough competitive atmosphere. 
  • It provides a brand name, being a government institution.
  • The academic fee is very less. You can complete your MBA degree at a highly subsidized fee.
  • All the faculties are PhD holders from reputed institutes like FMS, IIMs, etc. They give a great platform to learn.
  • Their overall student intake is very less. The number of students taken per batch is 42. This helps in better student-teacher interaction. You also get more opportunities to get placed.
  • The syllabus of MBA at AUD is highly updated following the industrial trends. This keeps students at par with students of other recognized universities.

Lastly, being located in Delhi it already has an advantage. You will get a good and competitive crowd which will eventually help in your overall development as an individual.

How is XIME Bangalore?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : July 5th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

XIME Bangalore gets criticized by a lot of students because of multiple reasons. According to my friend, the main reasons for the same are-

  1. The institution does not give due consideration to improving its overall placement record. 
  2. The location of all three XIME campuses is unfavorable for good student life. They are located on the outskirts where it is quite difficult to access some form of entertainment during weekends.
  3.  The mess food is below average, especially that in the girl’s hostel. There are common washrooms that are not cleaned regularly. The hostel rooms are small with each room shared by 3 people.
  4. Students mostly end up going for marketing jobs in the end.
  5. There is a lack of playgrounds and extracurricular activities.

Thus, XIME Bangalore has some issues that need to be resolved and the institution should not be your first priority.

What is your take on IIM Indore's Mumbai campus?

NK
Nitesh Kumar Posted On : January 4th, 2023
Lives in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India

My brother is an alumnus of IIM Indore and he brought to light the harsh truth of the Mumbai Campus. Being a satellite campus of IIM Indore, the facilities, teaching, and placements are very substandard.

  • Not even 5% of the faculty visits the Mumbai campus for classes. As a result, classes are taught by low-qualified teachers.
  • The placement scenario is also terrible at the Mumbai campus. The summer placements are conducted separately. Whereas the final placements are joint. But unfortunately, the best profiles and packages are saved for the IIM Indore students.

The ROI is terrible. You invest a lot of fees and get low packages or sometimes even no jobs. So I would recommend going for any other B School if you are confident of another attempt at CAT.

I have 433 rank in TSPGECET in the ECE branch. Can I get a seat in the OU or the JNTUH?

RS
Rishabh Singh Posted On : February 19th, 2024
Lives in banglore

Unfortunately, the ground reality is very grim for TS PGECET candidates. For example, there is a candidate who marginally cleared GATE, and then, there’s another who scored rank 1 in TS PGECET. Both will have their names on the counseling list, but the GATE qualifier will be given priority over the TS PGECET topper. This makes your chances of getting into OU and JNTUH very slim as the competition is quite high for both these colleges.

lives in New Delhi

IIITD, DTU and NSIT (NSUT) reserve 85% seats for the students who passed their 12th or equivalent from Delhi. All the NITs also offer reservation to students from their own states. Here are the 2023 JEE Mains closing ranks for CSE/COE at various colleges (for SC category)-

Closing Rank (last round)

NSIT (NSUT)

All India

DTU

NITW

OS

484

NIT Rourkela

OS

549

IIIT Delhi

OS

These are the closing ranks assuming you are not from the Home State. There are separate ranks for female-reserved seats as well. Apart from COE, NSUT also offers a B.Tech CSE in AI, Data Science and Big Data Analytics.

Thus, you will have to study hard and score well to secure a seat at these top colleges for your B.Tech CSE.

IGNOU: Has anyone over here done a MAPC master's in psychology or a Ph.D. in psychology via distance learning?

RY
Raj Yadav Posted On : October 18th, 2022
Studied Psychology at IGNOU

It is a well-planned course that includes a required internship, research project, and term-end examinations (TEE). According to some practicing psychologists, the study material appears to be on par with regular university courses.

The main difference is that you can complete the course over a 5-year period, with exams held twice a year. As a result, you can write exams for 2-3 subjects each term and finish the course while working full-time.

IGNOU has two points of contact for you:

  • SC Study Centre: This is where lectures and practicals will be held, assignments must be submitted, and course-related questions will be answered. There are two in Mumbai: Hansraj College in Khar and Seva Sadan in Ulhasnagar.

  • Regional Centre RC: This is your administrative point for receiving books, issuing ID cards, making changes to exam centers, and so on. This is the IGNOU's general office in Mulund West, Mumbai, for all courses.

IGNOU PROBLEMS

The RC is sometimes unresponsive, and with a low student-to-administrative representative ratio (IGNOU has no upper limit on the number of students it can admit), it is difficult to get questions answered. To receive a response, students must send emails in bulk.

IGNOU (or RC) appoints teachers to give IGNOU lectures in addition to their regular teaching duties.

IGNOU urgently needs to address these concerns in order to maintain and improve students' trust in the system.
