Which is better, CUSAT or CET?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : August 7th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

CUSAT is your best bet if you are willing to pursue a Masters's or PG.

CUSAT has the freedom to design the curriculum for its students that suits their needs perfectly and imparts quality education. It has highly experienced professors who are keen to train the students and don’t just teach for the sake of completing the syllabus. CET on the other hand follows the KTU syllabus, one of the most average institutes of Kerala so the quality of education is sacrificed a lot.

In CET, professors sometimes are just transferred by the government, which never is the case with CUSAT. Additionally, CUSAT received huge funds from the government to support its large-scale research projects.

Ultimately, CUSAT is a better choice than CET for Masters while CET is a better option for Bachelor.

Which university is better for a Masters in applied computer science, the University of Concordia, or the University of Dalhousie?

PM
Pradipta Mukharjee Posted On : June 6th, 2022
former student of Dalhousie University

For Masters in Applied Computer Science, Concordia University is better. The university has a locational advantage. It is in Montreal, which is becoming an IT hub. You can get good exposure to the programming and gemming industry. Concordia has demanding coursework. You will have to clear programming tests in the first year of the degree, itself. If you are good at coding and think analytically to implement the solution in a practical way, this course is ideal for you.   

Here is a brief highlight of Concordia’s Masters in Applied Computer Science. 

1st year tuition fees INR 12,76,002
Other costs INR 10,23,672
Eligibility  4-year bachelor's degree or 3-year program and 2-year master’s in a relevant field related to computer science. 
Language proficiency test scores TOFEL - 85/120 PTE - 57/90 IELTS - 6.5/9
Program acceptance rate  49.3%
Student-teacher ratio 1:16
Average CTC  INR 6,406,125 (82,500 USD)

Dalhousie University is located in a small city Halifax, full-time opportunities after Masters are fewer there compared to Montreal. However, Montreal is a French city, you will have to learn basic French to get part-time jobs.

Should I consider leaving Delhi University for B. R. Ambedkar University, Delhi?

AS
Arnab Singh Posted On : January 18th, 2022
MA English from Ambedkar University Delhi (2018)

It depends on the college you are getting admission under Delhi University. If you are able to get into one of the top colleges in the North or South campus of Delhi University, you should stick with it. Otherwise, choosing AUD over DU will be better. One other thing that you should consider while making the choice is your ultimate goal, i.e. research/job. You should definitely choose AUD if you are interested in pursuing research.

Which one to choose? IMT Ghaziabad full time vs Great Lakes, Chennai 2 year PGDM?

RS
Rishi Sharma Posted On : February 16th, 2023
MBA

Great Lakes, Chennai is better known for its 1-year PGPM program, while the PGDM program has not gained the same level of attention or appreciation as its PGPM counterpart. Additionally, as a relatively new B-school, Great Lakes is not as established as IMT Ghaziabad, which has a rich legacy of around 30 years.

While it's true that the batch size of IMT Ghaziabad can be seen as a drawback, if you are in the top 20-30% of the batch, your placements can be comparable to top-tier B-schools like NMIMS, IIFT, and IIM I/K. IMT is particularly known for its marketing specialization, so if you want to specialize in marketing, IMT can be considered a default choice.

Which is best to join new iim or nmims mumbai core?

DR
Divyanshu Ranjan Posted On : February 23rd, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Sambalpur (Graduated 2020)

While many may not agree, the new IIMs are far better than NMIMS. People prefer NMIMS mainly because of its location and legacy. If you come out of that criteria then you realize that the new IIMs are much more. I have compared the new IIMs with NMIMS on the basis of a few aspects.

  • Strength: The increasing batch size is a major problem in NMIMS as it directly affects placements. The best companies hire only 3-4 students. Thus almost half the batch is placed in mediocre companies with average roles. New IIMs, on the other hand, have a very small batch size and therefore there is equality in placements 
  • NMIMS: NMIMS MBA fees is much more than the new IIMS. Also, the accommodation costs are high and the ultimate ROI is not good at all.
  • Campus Life: The most crucial drawback that NMIMS faces is a lack of hostel life. There are zero recreational or sports activities. No playgrounds or sports facilities are available. The new IIMs are excellent in this aspect with world-class facilities both in terms of education and recreation.
  • Placements: NMIMS placements are o n level with IIM Ranchi, the oldest among the new IIMs. Trichy and Kashipur are almost reaching that level too.

So the new IIMs are far better in terms of brand, faculty, and even ROI.
