Which is better for an MTech in electrical engineering, NIT Trichy or IIT Guwahati?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 5th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

The choice of the institute for pursuing an MTech in Electrical Engineering depends on what you want from your Masters. 

  • For those on the lookout for placements, NIT Trichy has a good placement scenario, especially for Electrical Engineering. They are even better than some well-known IITs in M.Tech, especially Power Systems. 
  • However, if you are willing to pursue a career in research after MTech (Ph.D.) then you will have to give great importance to the choice of the institute. An IIT is best suitable for prospective Ph.D. holders as they have global recognition too.

Ultimately, the better institute is a matter of preferences and career prospects.

How is the FPM in Finance at IIM Indore, Lucknow, Kozhikode?

S
Sumit Posted On : January 3rd, 2023
Works at CDGI Indore (2013–present)

The FPM or the Fellow Program in Management is a full-time, residential, fully financially supported doctoral program of the Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode.

One of my friends joined IIM Kozhikode for research under financial accounting and control. According to her, the first year is full of rigor and a rigid curriculum. The FPM students share the curriculum with MBA students in the first year along with 3 FPM courses. The shared curriculum enables them to get in insight into various aspects of Management.

Like the first year, the second to has 3 semesters of 3 months each. This year comprises core FOm courses that give a depth understanding of methodologies and various econometric tools.

One major drawback my friend faced was the improper ratio between the number of courses and their period of study. The second year has 7 courses in each term which imply 12 days per subject which is insufficient. If we consider the 30 hours of classes per course, it means we attend classes for 210 hrs ( appr 8 days).

So IIM Kozhikode no doubt offers top-notch facilities and resources but you will have to prepare yourself to physically and mentally tire yourself to avail of them. FPM is an excellent course for research aspirants and not for casual learners.

What should I choose. 1. CSE Jadavpur University 2. B.Tech + M.Tech dual degree CSE @ IIEST, Shibpur 3. CSE @ NIT Durgapur?

IB
Ishika Biswas Posted On : March 22nd, 2021
Studied at Jadavpur University

First of all, never compare Jadavpur University with NIT Durgapur for the Engineering stream. Second important thing is, people usually prefer B.Tech and M.Tech students over the one who has opted for Dual degree program. The reason for this is dual degree programs are not valuable in industry or research.

Talking particularly about CSE, Jadavpur University is quite good and even better than the new IITs and most of the NITs. Among the given options, CSE at Jadavpur University is the best option to opt for. You will enjoy your studies here. You will have a good range of research projects. You will get abundant internship opportunities from here. Although placements at JU are not as great as compared to IITs, NITs, BITS, and IIITs.

Every IIM is considered an Institute of National Importance and its students are therefore offered excellent educational loans without any collateral and very low-interest rates.

Moreover, a scheme in SBI - SBI Scholar Loan, offers a collateral-free loan of about 2,000,000 Rupees. Apart from this many banks readily offer loans as soon as you enter the PGP program at an IIM.

Which one is better: a PGDM-BKFS at TAPMI or a PGDM at Great Lakes Institute of Management?

HC
Himani Chaudhary Posted On : March 9th, 2023
Delhi-ite who studied in Chennai and working in Mumbai.

If you're interested in TAPMI's BFSI-oriented course, it would be a good idea to speak with seniors of that particular program for more information. However, if you're considering TAPMI's PGDM program in general, it is a pretty good option.

Great Lakes Chennai's PGDM program is relatively new, but it's already picking up momentum. The average salary package for its second batch was around 8.75 lakhs, and companies like Coke, Airtel, Lava, Snapdeal, Amazon, HDFC, Axis, Kotak, and many others recruited from the program.

It's important to note that placements are just one aspect to consider when selecting a program. Great Lakes Chennai also boasts some of the best faculty and infrastructure in India, making it a great choice for those seeking a high-quality education.

Overall, it's important to research and considers all aspects of a program when deciding where to pursue your MBA, including the course offerings, faculty, infrastructure, and placement opportunities.

Which is better CSE in Meghnad Saha Institute of Technology or IT in Heritage institute of technology?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

If you're considering pursuing an IT course at Heritage, you may have heard some negative feedback about the program. While it's true that IT may not be the strongest option at Heritage, there are still some reasons why it might be the best choice for you. Here are some points to consider:

  • Heritage has a well-established reputation for its academic programs, especially in the fields of engineering and computer science. This can be an advantage when it comes to finding job opportunities and building your professional network.
  • If you're interested in computer science but not sure which specialization to choose, starting with an IT program could be a good way to explore different areas before making a decision.
  • It's possible to switch to another stream after the first year if you're not satisfied with the IT program. By maintaining a GPA of 8.5 or above, you could transfer to the computer science engineering (CSE) program, which is one of Heritage's strongest programs.

If you're still unsure whether IT at Heritage is the right choice for you, here are some things to keep in mind:

  • Consider your long-term career goals and whether an IT degree from Heritage will help you achieve them. Research the job market in your desired field and see what qualifications and skills employers are looking for.
  • Look into the specific courses and faculty members in the IT program at Heritage to get a better sense of the curriculum and teaching quality. Talk to current students and alumni to hear their perspectives on the program.
  • Think about your personal interests and strengths. If you're passionate about a particular area of computer science or have a talent for programming, you may want to pursue a more specialized program that aligns with your strengths.

Ultimately, the decision to pursue an IT degree at Heritage is a personal one that depends on your individual circumstances and goals. While it may not be the best option for everyone, it could be a viable choice for those who are interested in exploring different areas of computer science or transferring to another program after the first year. Just remember to do your research and weigh your options carefully before making a final decision.

Which must one choose: M.Tech. from IIT Bombay or MBA from IIM Bangalore?

AB
Arun Balakrishnan Posted On : February 27th, 2023
Startup Enthusiast, Biker, Music Lover, Cricketer

An MTech from IIT Bombay and an MBA from IIM Bangalore are two very different options. While one focuses on technological aspects the other focuses on managerial aspects. So before even dwelling on the worth of the courses individually you should self-analyze your inclinations and choose one path you are sure about.

Jot down your short and long-term goals. What exactly are you willing to do in your life apart from earning money? Are you more inclined to the corporate world or are the technical elements that attract you more? Having clarity of goals and understanding of what you want from your life is the primary determining factor for choosing your college as well as course.

Objectively, both courses offer a plethora of job prospects and you will gain a lot by choosing any of the two. But making a wise decision here is most important. Choosing an MBA just because it has good career prospects despite having an interest in technology is deluding yourself. You cannot attain success unless you are sincerely passionate about the field you are pursuing.

What should I prefer: Mechanical Engineering at HBTI, Kanpur or CSE at IET, Lucknow?

AL
Ajay Lakhra Posted On : August 9th, 2021
Studied at Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow

Both of the institutions are situated at a distance of 80 km from each other. IET Lucknow is situated in the industrial capital of Uttar Pradesh and the HBTI Kanpur is situated in the Political capital. If you live in one of the two cities, you can choose accordingly; otherwise, this factor has no significance.

  1. According to AKTU, both the institutes are ranked at number 1 and number 2 in UP, but the situation is completely different analytically. HBTI is a well-known institution and has been the parent institute of IIT Kanpur and Uttar Pradesh Textile Institute. 
  2. Both the institutes are government-run with complete control over examinations and the curriculum of courses offered by them.
  3. If you enjoy programming, Computer Science would be the appropriate course for you, while Mechanical Engineering is for those who want to acquire a genuine sense of what engineering is all about.
  4. The faculty of IET Lucknow is better than that of HBTI. 
  5. You will have numerous opportunities outside the campus. The placement statistics for the mechanical department are not very good at both institutes, but placement in the CS department is extremely good.

Make your decision based on the branch and not the institution as it would have a major impact on your career.
