How is the Integrated M.Sc. course for Physics at NIT Rourkela?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 5th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Integrated MSc Physics at NIT Rourkela is good enough, but make sure that you don’t select this institute if you have better options in hand. The main attraction of this institute is the course structure that allows time to excel in other essential courses like Classical Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Quantum Mechanics, and Statistical Mechanics. In addition, you can also study specialized electives like Advanced Quantum Mechanics, Advanced Condensed Matter Physics, Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos, Nonlinear Optics, Magnetism, Semiconductors, etc.

The faculty support and laboratory facilities are very poor. So, you need to rely on online classes from external sources to understand the concept properly. You also need to give more importance to self-study otherwise, you may end up futile here. If you have a passion for physics, then you can choose this college

What should I choose between BITS Pilani EEE or IIT Guwahati engineering physics?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Both BITS Pilani and IT Guwahati are reputable institutions with strong engineering programs. It’s highly recommended that you go through the contents of the curriculum once before opting for any major. Most students skip this and regret it later as they are forced to study courses they least expected. Go through the books of these courses and determine if the matter intrigues you or not. 

IIT Guwahati Engineering Physics program covers a wide spectrum of fields. Although the placement scenario is average, it definitely quenches your thirst for knowledge of Physics and also prepares you for higher studies. 

Another good option for core physics is MSc at Kanpur or Kharagpur. Although EP will expose you to multiple options, you will require another degree. It’s better to analyze your interests deeply before making the final decision.

As far as the EEE at BITS Pilani is concerned, I am strongly against anyone joining BITS irrespective of the branch they choose. The curriculum is poorly structured and lacks flexibility. The placement scenario is deteriorating day by day. The exposure offered is null and thus BITS Pilani should be your last option when all doors are closed. You will end up wasting your time and money with no solid knowledge up your sleeve by the end of 4 years.

Ultimately, the decision of which program to choose depends on your personal preferences and career goals.

Should I go for an MBA at IBS Hyderabad, or in UPES Dehradun?

GC
Garvit Chhabra Posted On : February 13th, 2023
Studied at Institute of Technology and Science, Mohan Nagar, Ghaziabad

I hope you have already decided on your specialization. So it’s better that you go for that specific course than a regular MBA at UPES Dehradun. If you take up the regular MBA you will have to study general subjects in the first year and your choice of specialization subjects in the second. Whereas if you go for MBA in International Business or Logistics and Supply Chain Management, you'll be taught subjects concerning that specialization from semester one itself. This will help you in the long run.

One more thing you should know is that for International Business, IBS Hyderabad is a much better choice than UPES. The placement scenario at UPES for IB is yet to improve.

You should choose BIT Mesra ECE. It has a better brand value. It will be easier to get good opportunities in terms of placements and higher education. 

BIT Mesra placements are excellent. Each year almost 85% of students get placed in ECE branch. The average CTC offered to the students of ECE ranges between INR 5 -10 LPA.

Which is better among TISS HRM, and JBIMS MMS?

HN
Hardik Nagar Posted On : March 3rd, 2023
Student

TISS offers one of the best HRM programs, rivaling that of XLRI HR, and has produced highly competent individuals in this field. If you have a strong passion for HR and are confident in your choice, TISS would be an excellent choice for you to pursue this specialization.

On the other hand, if you are uncertain about your career path, it may be advantageous to keep your options open. In this scenario, it would be best to choose a college that allows you to decide on your stream later, rather than committing to a specific specialization immediately. This approach has its own advantages and disadvantages, so it ultimately comes down to personal preference and what best suits your individual needs and goals.

Regardless of your choice, both TISS and JBIMS have top-notch individuals in all areas of management, so you can be assured that you will receive a high-quality education and have the opportunity to be mentored by skilled professionals.

Is CSE at IIIT Delhi really a core CS course or an IT based course?

DS
Darshan Sethi Posted On : October 9th, 2023
Lives in Delhi

I am a first-year CSE student at IIIT Delhi. All the related subjects in CSE have more theory than required by an average Computer Engineer. 

Here are some details on each subject you’ll learn during the 1st and 2nd semesters of this course:

1st semester-

  • System Management: You’ll learn the theory part through video lectures. You’ll learn a lot about concepts like the Anatomy of a recording disk, the difference between file systems, etc. The practical work will include disassembling an electronic device, video presentations, hardware projects, general shell scripting, etc.
  • Intro to Programming: It is a usual programming language course. You’ll learn a lot of theory in it.
  • Digital Circuits: You’ll study theory about the smallest of operations possible in a processor and basic computer architecture. 
  • Linear Algebra: It is a math course, but a prerequisite for courses like Image Processing. It includes a lot of theory.

2nd semester-

  • Computer Organization: You’ll learn Computer Architecture in this. The subject is more theoretical and less practical. You won’t have regular labs. But the prescribed book for this subject is pretty good.
  • Data Structures and Algorithms: It is the best subject according to me. You’ll learn concepts, pseudo concepts, time and space complexities in lectures, and actual codes in lab sessions.

By describing each subject during the first year of CSE, I tried to resolve your query to some extent. The curriculum will move forward in a similar manner for the remaining years.

Which college should I choose: Jadavpur University CSE or NIT Trichy CSE in terms of placements?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : July 26th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Both institutions offer great research and placement opportunities in the CSE branch. NIT Trichy gets you an INI Tag and the hostel-life over there is great. On the other hand, the fees at Jadavpur University are incredibly low. Also, Jadavpur University allows you to experience University culture. 

I personally know alumni from JU and NIT Trichy CSE and all of them are doing well in their careers. I would suggest you talk to the recently graduated alumni from both institutions to get a closer look at the present-day ground reality.

According to me, whether you choose CSE at NIT Trichy or Jadavpur University, you will not regret your choice. Also, consider other grounds like location before arriving at the final decision.

How is the IT branch at IIEST Shibpur? How are the faculty and placements related to IT branch? Is it comparable to CSE here?

AS
Aakansha Singh Posted On : March 5th, 2021
B.Tech Information Technology, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2021)

IT at IIEST Shibpur can be good but you need to utilize the opportunities you get properly. The infrastructure at the institute is good. Microsoft also recruits students from campus placements. In the past students have bagged good internship opportunities. One of the students was accepted for Google California (Internship). Compared to the CSE, the IT branch is a little behind in terms of salary packages offered. However, this branch has good diversity. 

Faculties for CSE and IT branches are comparable and the IT department even has better faculty members for a few of the subjects. The main difference between CSE and IT is that IT is a sandwich branch of CST and Electronics. So, naturally, you will need to study some Electronics subjects too. For Communication Systems, the IT branch does not have decent faculties. Adding to that, the subject is also not that useful for the future. Despite that this subject eats a chunk of the time of IT students. 

Another difference is CST introduces important subjects like algorithms in the 2nd year itself. Whereas, IT introduces these topics one year later. 

Basically, the essence is the same for the two branches, there are some minor differences in curriculum and lab work. How you do in placements depends on your hard work.

PT
Parth Tawde Posted On : January 11th, 2023
PGP from Indian Institute of Management, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2018)

As a fresher, you will find the curriculum quite hectic and unapproachable. Yet with proper motivation and enough time you will find yourself adapting to the rigor and it will become a part of your life. Some major highlights of the course are

  • Induction program: IIM Ranchi conducts a unique induction process wherein students from all the programs work together. It helps to inculcate Teamwork, creativity, and leadership through various tasks. The Introduction To Business session gives you a broad idea of both HR and other domains like Marketing, Finance, Operations, etc.
  • Curriculum: The curriculum at IIM Ranchi does not solely focus on HR subjects. Rather, it gives a strategic and integrative perspective from the very beginning. This aims at giving rise to future HR Leaders as Business Partners. The Foundation courses cover a broad spectrum like HR Scorecard, Job Evaluation, and Job Analysis.
  • Specialization: Another major highlight of the course is the specialization opportunity offered to its students. Apart from General HR Management, the PGDHRM course lets you specialize in Industrial/Labour Relations as well as Organization Development. This is a book for people who want to work in PSUs or crack exams like UGC NET. This makes it the first IIM to offer specialization in HR as well as the first IIM to offer specialization within its HR course.
  • SHRM guidelines: The content of its curriculum is based on the SHRM guidelines which is an International HR body to give the best to students in terms of knowledge.
  • Placements: The placement statistics of HR program are as follows

IIT Delhi Mtech Computer Technology vs IIT Hyderabad Mtech CSE. Which is better for placements in product based software companies?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : May 9th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Both IIT Delhi MTech Computer Technology and IIT Hyderabad Mtech CSE are excellent engineering programs. However, my personal suggestion is IIT Delhi Ctech. Here’s why

  • IIT Delhi offers the best opportunities considering its rank in the top 3 IITs 
  • IIT Delhi holds the Institute of Eminence Status
  • The brand value of IIT Delhi is much higher than the new IIT Hyderabad.
  • IIT Delhi being old has a very beautiful campus with great natural beauty. IIT Hyderabad on the other hand has a newly established campu that is still under construction.
  • A few major companies don’t visit new IITs like IIT Hyderabad. IIT Delhi, on the other hand, is visited by top IT companies like Amazon, Flipkart, Microsoft, Ola, Uber, Tower Research, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Intel, Qualcomm, Samsung, etc

The only disadvantage you might face at IIT Delhi Is the intense competition with CS students as they are all top rankers.

I don’t mean to demean IIT Hyderabad but it’s a fact that the opportunities and exposure that IIT Delhi will offer cannot be compared to IIT Hyderabad.
