Which is better, mechanical engineering in IIT Hyderabad or engineering physics at IIT Roorkee?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : May 22nd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

It is difficult to determine which is better; Mechanical Engineering in IIT Hyderabad or Engineering Physics at IIT Roorkee without knowing what your expectations from the degree are and your personal preferences. Nevertheless, I am here to spill a few facts about EP at IIT Roorkee.

  • Engineering Physics at IIT Roorkee is a multidisciplinary branch, with courses from Physics, Electrical, Electronics, Mathematics, and Chemistry departments.
  • The courses included in the curriculum are quite demanding and can be really challenging for those who have little interest in Science
  • Engineering Physics provided no core placements after completion of the BTech degree.
  • Those who have an interest in a specific field of Physics can pursue research as it has great scope.
  • You can also work as a scientist in DRDO or ISRO.
  • You can also opt for fields like Artificial Intelligence, Quantum Computing, or Quantitative Finance where people with majors in CSE, Applied Maths, and Physics are preferred. 
  • Software Engineering roles are also available for EP students although it is challenging to manage the academics along with programming. 

I would recommend you go for an easier branch that has less workload so that you can focus well on coding and get placed right after BTech in IIT.

What is the average salary package for a PGPM course at SPJIMR when it comes to placements?

VS
Vishuv Sethi Posted On : March 10th, 2023
Business,Education and Real Estate Blogger

During SPJIMR Placements 2022, the average salary of the PGDM students was higher than the PGPM students. The average package statistics are 

Particulars

Statistics 

Average Salary

INR 23.6 LPA

Top 25% Average Salary

INR 31 LPA

Top 50% Average Salary

INR 28.7 LPA

The average salary is a rather misleading aspect to determine the worth of a college because the highly inflated results can pull the average towards one side. This works in the favor of the college and most times students end up getting misled.

However, SPJIMR was able to maintain decent placements even during the pandemic. Its one-year PGPM course enjoys a strong reputation among companies and witnessed some of the best CTC packages against the eligible roles and profiles.

IIM SBP PGP'23 || CAT '21- 98.29%ile || CAT '20- 95.8%ile

It is currently too early to provide a definitive answer regarding the outcome of your question. However, there are cases where students were in a similar situation as you and become anxious as well as desperate to want a seat. It is advised to have patience and go with the flow. 

There was a case where a student had a waitlist number of 2XX, and no one was convinced that it is possible to convert at that number. However, due to various factors such as the uncertainty caused by Covid, online classes, and other factors, the waitlists may go even further than in previous years. He received an admission offer to IIM Sambalpur, which was something he had been waiting for. 

There may be many factors that come into play such as external and internal factors that may influence the process, such as batch strength. It is important to keep an open mind and have patience as the outcome may be different from what you expect.

What are the prospects of doing an MBA in tourism and hospitality from IIM Sirmaur? How would it compare with core MBA courses from other private AA and A grade MBA institutes?

SS
Surya Pal Singh Posted On : January 19th, 2023
Programmer Analyst (2021–present)

Both the courses give an edge to each other and cannot be compared. MBA T and HM are specialized courses that should be taken only if you are inclined toward the field. It helps you to establish a career and knowledge of the Tourism and Hospitality industry. 

The 2-year MBA flagship course has been standing for more than 2 years and therefore its curriculum cannot be compared to that of these recently launched courses. Some perks of these courses are 

  • Become a part of the legacy.
  • Learn how to build everything from scratch by founding or becoming part of clubs and committees.
  • International Job opportunities 
  • Himachal is famous for its tourism because of its beautiful landscapes. The tourism sector of Himachal Pradesh contributes 7% to the state GDP.
  • You can contribute to promoting Tourism, increasing its capacities to serve foreigners while remaining settled in your hometown.

So this course is very beneficial for people who have a keen interest in tourism.

What should I choose, chemical engineering at NIT Calicut or ECE at IIIT Jabalpur?

IR
Ishita Roy Posted On : August 25th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur (2018)

Chemical Engineering and ECE, both the branches are in demand. The major scope of Chemical Engineering is in chemical, food processing, pharma, medical industries, oil, and gas, etc.

The major scope of ECE is in android, mobile, and telecommunication. The majority of the students prefer ECE because of two reasons. The first reason being comfort. Secondly, after acquiring skills in programming languages, it is easy to switch to the IT or software field.

Here is a brief overview of CE at NIT Calicut and ECE at IIIT Jabalpur.

Institute  NIT Calicut  IIIT Jabalpur 
Average CTC  11 LPA  9.9 LPA 
Highest CTC  43 LPA  23 LPA 
Major recruiters  CISCO, Bosch, TATA Group IBM, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft
Course fee 2.08 lakhs  5.29 lakhs 

If you don’t have any particular inclination towards any branch you can go for ECE at IIIT Jabalpur.

NR
Nayantara Raman Posted On : August 20th, 2021
B.Tech. in Mechanical, National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra (2017)

All the mentioned NITs are among the top engineering institutes in the country. Out of all the NITs in India, the best choice is NIT Rourkela. As some of my friends studied there I might be able to give you some reasons. These are:

  • NIT Rourkela is famous for its Chemical Branch. 
  • The research culture of the institute is outstanding.
  • The institute has been ranked 16th in the NIRF Ranking for Engineering 2020. It is way above all the three institutes mentioned.
  • The JEE Main cut-offs are high. So, only the best students get a chance for admission. 
  • The college also encourages diversity.

The fee and chemical branch placement details are as follows.

Categories Chemical at NIT Rourkela
Fee INR 8.22 Lakhs
Minimum Package INR 3.6 LPA
Average Package INR 6.58 LPA
Highest Package INR 22 LPA

The top recruiters include L&T, Reliance, Tata, P&G, Parle, ACC Cement, Aditya Birla, IOCL, PGCIL, NTPC, GMR Energy, GlaxoSmithKline, and more.

Overall, NIT Rourkela is an excellent choice. After CSE and EC branches, the Chemical branch recorded the highest placements. The return on investment of college is decent. But you should opt for it only if you can deal with and function under strict regulations and laws.

Does IPM IIM Indore have reservations in the final selection?

HS
Hiten Sahu Posted On : August 20th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Management, Indore (2019)

One of my cousins studied at IIM Indore. According to him, yes, IPM IIM Indore has reservations in the final selection round.

IIM Indore, just like any other government institution, follows the reservation policies that are set up by the Government of India for colleges across the country. And, the same is followed for admission into the IPM course of IIM Indore as well.

However, even though this matters, I would suggest you not think about all these factors as of now and aim at scoring the best that you can.

Which is better, 'KJ Somaiya - Electronics engineering' OR 'Vivekanand - Electronics and Telecommunication engineering'?

SK
Shivani Krishnamurthy Posted On : August 31st, 2021
Studied at Swami Vivekanand College, Mumbai (Bombay) (2016)

Having known some people studying in these colleges, I can tell you that both colleges are really good in their own ways. But, you should consider the following before you make any decision:

  • KJ Somaiya has slowly improved over the years and now is considered much better than Mumbai University (MU).
  • Vivekanand is known to keep track of attendance which is not the case with KJ Somaiya.
  • If you are considering doing Electronics, you should know that Electronics and Telecommunications has an upper edge.
  • The exams at KJ Somaiya are tougher than MU. This is because MU repeats a lot of previous years’ questions.
  • You will get a 5 day holiday in MU before a semester paper. At KJ, you will only get a day or two. Therefore, at KJ, your exams will be hectic.
  • The semesters end pretty quickly at KJ as opposed to MU. 
  • MU students only get one month’s leave after a semester ends. For KJ, this leave is for 2 months. 
  • You can utilize this time to look for internships and other activities that will help strengthen your resume.
  • Electronics has a few subjects like digital communication which might overlap with telecommunications.
Categories EE at KJ Somaiya ETC at Vivekananda (MU)
Course Fee 13.50 lakhs 4.52 lakhs
Highest CTC 12 LPA 9-10 LPA
Average CTC 5-8 LPA 4.5 - 5 LPA
Recruiting Companies L&T, TCS, Phillips, Schneider Electric, etc. JP Morgan, Tata Power, Mercedes, Microsoft, etc.

Both the colleges are even. It will finally depend on where your interests lie and what you would like to do. Find out if you are more interested in telecommunications or just core electronics, then choose accordingly. 

Electronics will teach you more about electronic components, circuits and other basic ideas that might be required in general electronics. Telecommunications will only give you a deeper understanding of communication technologies.
