How is M.Tech in cs at ISI kolkata in terms of placement and academics?

RS
Reetika Sengupta Posted On : September 17th, 2021
B.Stat Statistics & Mathematics ,Indian Statistical Institute (2018)

One of my friends is currently in his first year of M.tech CS at ISI Kolkata. Here are some crucial insights regarding the academics and placements according to his experience.

Academics: 

  • If you have a CS background in your under graduation too, then all subjects in the first year will be mostly repetition for you. You can also check the exact list on the ISI website. However, many people with a CS background say that they have learned things in a much-refined way.
  • In the second year, you finally get to choose subjects based on your interest which will help you in your final thesis.
  • ISI is quite famous for cryptography but you can also find good thesis projects in prestigious fields like Machine learning, Image processing, Algorithms, VLSI, cognitive science, etc. Also, you get good guidance in all of these.

Placements:

ISI is particularly famous for statistics. So, most companies coming for placements offer Data science profiles. Very few companies would be offering developer job roles. So regarding the placements, it’s the best place to grab data scientist roles with lucrative packages. In the recent placement highlights, the average and highest CTC offered was 19.80 LPA and 42 LPA. 

Overall, ISI Kolkata is an amazing place to pursue your M.Tech in CS. The great academics and placement record indeed make it a haven for students associated with CS, mathematics, and statistics fields.

How was your interview experience at IIIT Delhi for an M.Tech in Computer Science?

AD
Arohi Dasgupta Posted On : October 4th, 2023
studied at Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi

This is how my interview at IIIT Delhi for M.Tech CSE went-

At first, we took an MCQ based aptitude test. The allotted time was divided section-wise. After that, around 160 people were shortlisted for an interview, and 6-8 panels were formed. Every panel asked a different set of questions. 

I was asked about my background, and the reason for doing an M.Tech. Then the professor asked me for the subjects I was confident in. I chose DS and Algorithms. I had to come up with a suitable data structure for a situation. I had to also write a code for the same. The professor kept on modifying the constraints, and I modified the solutions accordingly.

 It was an intense discussion. At the end, I was asked if I had any questions. Finally, he told me to go. Some panels asked questions on OS, DBMS, CN. Some candidates were even asked questions based on their current job. 

Though I wasn’t selected, the interview experience was quite good for me.

Why do people not consider SIBM/SCMHRD Pune at par with other prestigious MBA colleges despite the fact that they rank among top 20 of India?

AD
Aditi Deshpande Posted On : June 6th, 2023
Lives in Pune,Maharashtra

Most of the top B-schools in the country select candidates on the basis of CAT and to an extent, XAT. Since the aim of all the students is to get into the old IIMs, so there are a lot of amazing candidates who only sit for the CAT. Since the only way to get into SIBM/ SCMHRD is through SNAP, there is a perception that the best candidates do not prefer to go into these institutions, which is not necessarily true but might explain the public perception. Also, with the introduction of a number of subpar colleges under the Symbiosis umbrella, the value and prestige of SIBM and SCMHRD have declined in the eyes of the general public. 

SIBM and SCMHRD are amazing institutes, but the public might not consider them on par with other prestigious universities due to the above-mentioned reasons.

Who is the best professor in CSE department, MNNIT Allahabad and why?

AM
Anuva Maity Posted On : April 23rd, 2021
Studied at MNNIT Allahabad

MNIT has had quite a few good teachers over the years but some of them have really resonated with the students to leave an everlasting impact on our minds. Some of the most reputed teachers of the institute according to student reviews are as follows.

  • Ranvijay Singh: Professor Singh has a really thorough knowledge of his subjects and one of the few teachers who deeply care for their students. You can also approach him for extra classes in case of any difficulties even if it is not his subject. He is also great at career advice and a teacher who just wants to genuinely help and is truly one of the best teachers of CSED.
  • Neeraj Tyagi: Professor Tyagi was quite instrumental in developing my friend’s interest in networking. In my friend’s batch, he did not teach this subject but did so for IT. He was also fortunate enough to get to work with Tyagi sir and completed quite a few projects under his guidance. One of these included FTP quota on server accounts. He is open to learning new ideas and keeping himself updated, discussing things, quite accessible, and a humble teacher.
  • BD Chaudhary: It is quite possible that professor Chaudhary has retired now but he used to teach databases. His classes were miles apart from other teachers. He was a professional at teaching, much like an IIT professor, and would make you understand even the minute details of the subject. You would never feel like missing his lecture. His test papers were also quite different where he set a single 100 mark question for the half-yearly exam. He would instill the hunger for learning in students. 

These were some of the teachers that made college memorable for a few of my friends. You can hope to see a few of them taking your classes too.

Priya Raghav Posted On : December 22nd, 2021
studied at Tezpur University (2018)

The main difference between Tezpur University and Gauhati University is that the former is a central university while the latter is a state university. So, TU has a residential campus, central funds, and better infrastructure compared to Gauhati University. 

In terms of quality of education, there is no such difference between the two universities. GU being the older university has better experiences. However, TU has improved a lot over the years. Both universities are well recognized in India.
