How good or bad is NIT Jalandhar in terms of study, culture, research and placements?

KM
Kanika Mehrotra Posted On : December 5th, 2022
Studied Electronics and Communication Engineering at Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar ( NITJ )

I am here to tell you how good or bad NIT Jalandhar is based on the parameters you mentioned.

Study: At NIT Jalandhar, the study does not really depend on professors. You will have to retort to self-study. The professors are either too busy or just read out bookish knowledge. So in this term NIT Jalandhar is average.

Culture: The culture at NIT Jalandhar is excellent. Ragging is banned and seniors are very supportive. Hostel facilities are also pretty good. Besides this, the college hosts 2 events every year. There is TechNiTi which is a technical fest and Utkansh which is a cultural fest.

Research: The research scenarios at NIT Jalandhar are very lacking. The professors don’t pay emphasis on research at all. They just focus on teaching the topics that will be covered in the theoretical exam. However recently some professors have started helping B.Tech. students write research papers.

Placements: Generally NIT Jalandhar offers good placement opportunities. The CSE, ECE, ICE, MECH branches get 100% placement rates. But the same has decreased for Textile, BioTech, civil, chemical and are decreasing since 2015.

KGMU vs JIPMER, which is better overall in terms of academics, hostels and campus life?

SS
Shridhar Sriraman Posted On : September 30th, 2023
Lives in Pondicherry, Puducherry, India

Here is some information about both these colleges to help you make a better decision-

  1. JIPMER is the AIIMS of South. It has a better academic culture. Everything, from peer groups to labs, is top-notch over there. Both the colleges have decent hostels.
  2. JIPMER has a bit more exciting campus life. But KGMU makes up for this with its festive celebrations. 
  3. JIPMER puts great emphasis on student research, so student learning is supposedly better. The internships are immensely rigorous over there.
  4. Lucknow serves really good chicken meals. At KGMU, you’ll get good non veg meals. People from the North face food and language barriers at JIPMER, but they adapt eventually. 

Based on this information, I would say that JIPMER is overall better. However, even KGMU is a really good choice for your medical studies.

What is the quality of accommodation and mess food at IIT Hyderabad?

PV
Prarthi Vyas Posted On : May 16th, 2023
Studied at IIT Hyderabad

No matter what delicacies you are offered in the hostel mess, nothing can be compared to home-cooked meals. So, it's better to lower your standards when it comes to mess food served at IIT Hyderabad. If you find the mess food unsatisfactory you can always go to canteens and get yourself your favorite food. You will be glad to know that food is sold at subsidized prices at these canteens. 

IIT Hyderabad has decent accommodation facilities and all permanent students are made to stay on the permanent campus while interns and other temporary students will have to stay on the temporary campus (Ordnance Factory) The commute between the accommodation and the main campus might be tiring given the weather conditions and the huge distance.

Which college is best, Satyawati, Aryabhatta or Rajdhani in terms of the crowd?

PG
Punit Gupta, Posted On : November 24th, 2021
B.Com (H) from University of Delhi (2020)

Rajdhani college is said to be better than Aryabhatta and Satyawati if the crowd is considered. 

Rajdhani is a very underrated college, students often ignore its capability of being a good institution. The crowd here is unlike what is usually pictured. They are highly knowledgeable and determined to their goals. They are hardworking and dedicated individuals who are also driven. Being a college under DU, their students are also highly competitive which creates a disciplined environment.

Like every other college they also have a mix of good and bad students, but due to the presence of the good students the others are encouraged to do good as well.

Does IIM Indore provide food for South Indians in their mess?

AS
Akshay Sirsalewala Posted On : January 4th, 2023
PGPM from Indian Institute of Management Indore (Graduated 2022)

IIM-I does not have a specific south Indian menu. However, the regular mess menu offers a variety of south Indian dishes like 

  • Rasam
  • Dosa
  • Idli
  • Vada 

The best part is that there are boundaries in the quantity you want to take. On specific occasions like Onam, a special South Indian dinner is organized.

A typical breakfast on a Sunday morning is one of the best with sandwiches, Dosa, eggs, and fruits.

SD
Sree Dasgupta Posted On : May 23rd, 2023
studied Computer Science at Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi

IIT Mandi campus is situated in Kamand village which is 15 km from MANDI town. There is an institute bus facility available from Mandi to IIT. The North and South campuses are separated by a mountain. While the South campus has been developed completely, the North campus is still under the construction phase. 

The 1st and 2nd-year students reside in the South campus, while the 3rd and 4th-year students reside in the North campus. The South campus has all types of sports facilities like a cricket ground, football ground, basketball court, volleyball court, badminton court, etc. The North campus has a swimming pool facility. 

The hostels are well facilitated with amenities like washing machines, microwaves, iron, refrigerator, water purifiers cum water coolers, etc. The hostel buildings are built with superior quality material which keeps the temperature good enough during winters. 

The food served in the mess is better than the food which is given in PG’s. The food is worth the mess expense. Additionally, the serene beauty of the campus makes it a more joyful experience.

How is life in and around for a student in IIM Bangalore?

AM
Ankit Malik Posted On : December 21st, 2022
Studied at Indian Institute of Management, Udaipur

A student's life in IIM Bangalore is a blend of stress and fun. The first 2 semesters are quite tough since the curriculum here is very extensive. But you don’t have to give up on this pressure and by 3rd term, you will see yourself adapting to it. Also, the initial terms are when you make the best friends of your life. Your company will define how the following two years will shape you into a new person.

To maintain rigor the institute organized frequent quizzes and group projects. You are required to multitask and also prioritize your tasks. This will continue for 5-6 courses. You will get enough relaxation through fests, and breaks during summer and final placements.

Ultimately what will matter for an IIM Bangalore student is their final grade and what memories they created within the campus in 2 years.

B.Tech+M.Tech Computer Science, Gautam Buddha University (2022)

No, ragging is strictly prohibited in Gautam Buddha University (GBU). You do not have to worry about ragging at all. The seniors are extremely cooperative and helpful. They offer a very welcoming vibe.

If you need opportunities to express your talent, the seniors in your department will absolutely help you with it. They made sure that you receive proper guidance to polish your public speaking skills. Opportunities also came in the form of debate competitions, group discussions and anchoring in various events. They encourage you to take part in them.

The anti-ragging atmosphere of this University is something which sets it apart from the other institutions of this region.
