Should I go for CS in MSIT or ECE from MAIT?

AC
Ankita Chatterjee Posted On : July 3rd, 2021
Computer Science and Engineering at Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology (2018)

First of all, both the branches differ a lot from each other. Thus, you need to understand which branch you are inclined to. Also, keep in mind that you can change your field from ECE to CSE but not vice versa. So, choosing CSE can get you an advantage in many ways. My friend is currently studying CSE in MSIT and here’s what his experience says.

Dedicated faculty: Most teachers are well experienced and really enjoy what they teach you. If you have even smallest of the doubts, do not hesitate as they will assist you whenever you need them. Especially in the CSE department, teachers are really cooperative.

Infrastructure: If you visit both MSIT and MAIT, you will find that MAIT has a tad bit better infrastructure.

Location: MSIT definitely has a location advantage as you can find various hangout spots around the institute and even the nearest metro of Janakpuri East is just 5 minutes away. On the other hand, MAIT lacks proximity to metro and hangout spots.

Placements: While both the colleges have great placements, the CSE branch will get you better packages and increased opportunities, like any other college In India.

According to the recent placement data the highest and average CTC offered at MSIT is 47 LPA and 3.6 LPA. For MAIT the average and highest CTC is 3 LPA and 28 LPA.

All in all, both MAIT and MSIT are reputed private colleges of Delhi. The biggest thing that makes the difference here is the branch you choose. No doubt CSE has an upper hand over ECE as mentioned above.

Which one to choose: IIM L PGP-SM course or NITIE PGDIM?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : June 7th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

For an SCM background, PGDIM from NITIE will be a better option.

NITIE PGDIM focuses on core management and operations, while IIM Lucknow PGP-SM focuses on sustainability management. 

For students from an SCM background, learning core management is of greater value. You will learn marketing, HR, and finance in depth.

Sustainability Management focuses on micro and macroeconomics to sustain the business environment. Sustainability Management is becoming increasingly important in management studies.It is becoming popular in the field of management. But the PGP-SM course will not cover core management.

Which one is better doing MBA marketing from IMT Hyderabad or MBA IB from NDIM Delhi?

DS
Divya Saraf Posted On : June 2nd, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

The colleges are from different leagues. Although IMT Hyderabad only started in the year 2011, the brand image of IMT has helped the college in many ways. You could see many big brands such as Deloitte, ICICI Bank, Amazon D.E. Shaw, and so on visiting IMT Hyderabad. You’d also get the benefits of living in a good hostel and getting the campus experience since NDIM wouldn’t be able to compete in terms of infrastructure.
