Dear students of IIT Bhubaneswar, Do you feel that "You are in a low ranked IIT"?

SS
Shalini Sahu Posted On : June 16th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar (2018)

I asked my friend who is a student at IIT Bhubaneswar if she ever felt an inferiority complex of studying in a low-ranked IIT. She said that feeling was inevitable and she did feel low to a certain extent. Some top NITs and private colleges are indeed better than IIT Bhubaneswar today but that doesn't mean IIT Bhubaneshwar is the worst. It's the quality and passion of students that make a college worthwhile, not its ranking.

The students here know that they aren't any less than other IITians since it was only a matter of a few marks that differentiated them and are proud of the IIT tag nevertheless.

IIT Bhubaneswar has indeed proven its worth given its broad alumni network in every big company. It may not have been able to attract the highest packages but its alumni can be found in every firm be it Apple, Flipkart, or Tata Motors. IIT Bhubaneswar has given birth to many entrepreneurs as well. Top foreign universities have IIT Bhubaneswar alumni as scholars contributing largely to the academic world. 

Ultimately, the feeling of being a part of the IIT family takes over the inferiority complex the students of IIT Bhubaneswar have and they try to make the most of their college.

How can I score CGPA 9 in KIIT?

AD
Ananya Dasgupta Posted On : July 26th, 2023
Studied at Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT)

I am an alumnus of KIIT. In my B.Tech Civil Engineering course, I scored a 9.43 CGPA and ranked 2nd overall in my branch.

For a 9+ CGPA, I would recommend you follow this advice-

  • Hostel- You and your roommates will most probably come from different backgrounds, both economic and cultural. Learn to accept the differences and do not waste your time and energy on petty arguments. After your first year at KIIT, when you will be shifted from King’s Castle VII, try to get a room with people who carry the same values and mindset as you. However, be ready for adjustments and compromises with them as well.
  1. Classes- Do not unnecessarily miss your classes at KIIT because there you will learn important tips on preparing for your examinations and other competitions. Also, try to study for 2-4 hours each day after classes.
  2. Read- Read motivating and inspiring books during your free time. 
  3. Set a goal for yourself- Be it an MBA from an IIM, getting a good placement offer, or any such goal, make it in the first year itself and work hard towards achieving it. With such a goal in mind, you will study harder toward getting a good CGPA.

Apart from studies, do enjoy your life at KIIT, make amazing friends, and develop leadership and managerial skills by participating in societies like the Photography Society, Music Society, Dance Society, etc.

Are the high fees of 15.5 lakh at Great Lakes Chennai (PGDM) worth it?

RS
Ruhee Singhania Posted On : July 11th, 2023
studied at Great Lakes

Everyone has different criteria for considering an institute worthy or not. It all depends on other options you have and your financial background. Your question is subjective so I will try to answer it in the most unbiased way. 

One of my cousins got admission to the Great Lakes PGDM program and because of his weak financial background, he decided to take an education loan for 12.75L. This year he will be completing his 3rd year as a professional and when asked he says that every penny he spent was worth the results he reaped. The highly experienced faculty, top-notch infrastructure, and environment justified the high fees charged by the institute.

What is it like to be a pass out from XLRI, Jamshedpur with a degree in HR? Also, is HRM better than BM in XLRI?

GK
Gauri Kapoor Posted On : February 13th, 2023
Studied at Xavier School of Management.

In terms of outlook and objectives, the HRM and BM programs offered by XLRI Jamshedpur differ significantly. The BM program, for example, includes only two courses in Organization Behavior, whereas the HRM program includes three courses in the same subject.

The HRM program is designed to provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to become a successful HR manager in today's fast-paced corporate environment. As a result, if you want to work in human resources, the HRM program is the best option. XLRI Jamshedpur is regarded as the best HR education institute in India, and being a part of the program gives you access to a rich alumni network of over 60 years, many of whom are in HR roles. This is a significant benefit. Similarly, the BM program has advantages, but the program's objectives differ from those of HRM. If you are admitted, you should not consider any other options.

How is the chemical engineering department at NIT Rourkela?

AB
Ankita Bhattacharya Posted On : January 15th, 2022
B.Tech Chemical Engineering & American Chemical Society, National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (2021)

According to the student’s reviews online, you should not opt for chemical engineering at NIT Rourkela. 

Here are some reasons as to why:

  • The faculty of the department is not good, they are mostly new at their jobs and have very little educational experience.
  • They focus more on theoretical learning than practicals.
  • They prefer when students mug up theories rather than understanding them in depth.
  • The teachers sometimes give so many assignments that it becomes impossible to complete them in time.
  • There is a lot of communication gap between students and teachers.

Lastly, the placement scenario of this department is bad. Most of the students are going into the IT sector and a very few got recruited in core industries and many students did not even receive placement offers.

So considering everything it is suggested you do not pursue chemical engineering at NIT Rourkela.

Which college is better, Sir MVIT or BIT (Bangalore Institute of Technology)?

TI
Tara Irani Posted On : August 14th, 2020
Studied at Sir M Visvesvaraya Institute of Technology (2017)

Both the colleges, Sir MVIT and BIT, are part of VTU and are well known for Engineering courses and MBA. They offer almost every undergraduate course in engineering including:

  • Civil Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Computer Science and Engineering
  • Information Science and Engineering
  • Electronics and Communication Engineering and many more

Location: Sir MVIT is situated on the outskirts of the Bengaluru city near the airport. This gives a good environment for studies and students remain away from the city’s noisy & hectic crowd and unwanted distractions. There are hotels available for students near the institute to enjoy quality food at a good price. Decathlon and other showrooms are also situated near the campus. While talking about BIT which situated in the heart of Bengaluru city. Markets, Restaurants, pubs, and all other facilities are easily available for a student of BIT. Mobility for students is very easy as National College metro station and KR Market metro station are within walking distance from the college.

Campus: SMVIT has a huge 133 Acres campus. It is said that SMVIT has the biggest campus among all colleges in Bengaluru. Unlike BIT which has the main building and all classrooms and labs in it, SMVIT has different buildings for each department. The hostels in SMVIT are big and spacious but students are not allotted single rooms here. The hostel has a gym, Badminton court, Table Tennis, Chess and Carrom facilities available. Whereas BIT has a boys hostel on campus but the girls’ hostel is nearly 10Kms away in JP Nagar.

Fee Structure: The annual fee for B.E. and M.Tech course in Sir MVIT costs about Rs.78,000 and for the MBA program, it is around Rs. 68,500. In BIT, the total fee for B.E. costs about Rs.5 lakhs and the annual fee for M.Tech is around Rs.67,500. The complete MBA program in BIT costs about Rs.7.5 lakhs. So, clearly SMVIT has a lower fee as compared to BIT.

Placements: Every year many top IT companies and core companies including some mass recruiters visit Sir MVIT and BIT campus. Most of the MVIT students get placed in IT companies irrespective of their branches while in BIT, students get placed in IT as well as in few core companies. In 2019, 474 out of 544 students of Sir MVIT got placed and a total of 573 offers was issued. The average placement was 88% in 2019. The institute claims to have an average of 94% placement record of the last five years. Whereas talking about BIT, in 2019, 479 out of 976 students got placed and a total of 662 offers were issued. The institute had an average 70% placement. The average package for a BIT student is around 6.5 LPA.

Looking at the placement records and all other factors, Sir MVIT gets an upper hand over BIT. It is suggested to go for Sir MVIT over BIT if a student is interested in getting an IT job but not getting a good branch.
