Which MBA college should I prefer (background is from B.tech hons (CS) and have 15 months work experience), IIT KGP or IIM Trichy?

JD
Jaideep Kumar Dutta Posted On : January 13th, 2023
FPM Accounting and Finance & Corporate Governance, Indian Institute of Management Ranchi (2019)

The best way to answer your query is to mention the core highlights of MBA from both institutes.

IIT

  • The MBA course here is more of technical nature as the program is one of the many departments of a huge Technical institute
  • The peers are very talented and genius 
  • The small batch size increases the opportunities for placements 

IIM Trichy

  • The MBA experience here is much more diverse and challenging. You will find peers from diverse backgrounds.
  • The pedagogy here is top notch as they specialize in this area
  • IIM Trichy has a better academic rigor and their style of Management education is too good
  • IIMs offer better food and infrastructural facilities 

I will sum up my answer with 2 points. If you are looking for job prospects outside India, IITs are a good choice. But within India, IIMs are a better option as their style of Management surpasses that of IITs.

Which is better: Civil NIT Trichy or CSE NIT Patna?

SR
Sushmita Rajput Posted On : July 21st, 2023
Lives in Patna

NIT Trichy is one of the top 10 institutions in India for Engineering, NIT Patna makes it to the 56th position in the NIRF Rankings 2023 for Engineering.

Despite this, I would suggest you go for CSE from NIT Patna. Out of my experience of meeting different people, I would suggest you choose a better course over a better institution. CSE is in demand these days, while Civil might not be a good choice placement-wise.

A friend of mine pursued his B.Tech in Civil Engineering from a top NIT. He did not land a decent job. After that, he cracked GATE and went for his M.Tech in Civil Engineering from DTU. Even after his M.Tech, he landed a package of INR 5.5 LPA.

Civil Engineers from IIT Guwahati in my friend circle started preparing for UPSC because of not getting a job.

I believe that a course tag is permanent unless you switch your stream during your Masters. Therefore, I would suggest you take CSE from NIT Patna instead of Civil from NIT Trichy.

Which is the best university to study UG course in chemistry zoology CU, BU, KU or WBSU?

SR
Saloni Ray, Posted On : October 20th, 2021
Studies at Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) (2022)

One of my friends studied at Calcutta University, so I might be able to give you some details about it.

  • Calcutta University (CU) is one of the oldest functioning institutions in West Bengal.
  • It is popular among students.
  • In Calcutta, most of the colleges are affiliated with CU.
  • The one thing that every CU student is familiar with is their strict grading system.
  • Scoring even a 60% is very difficult. Some students even think this is a good enough score if you are a student of CU.
  • Nowadays top reputed MNCs also demand at least 60% to be able to sit for placements.

Finally, you should keep in mind that other mentioned universities may not be as old and experienced as CU, but they will show a bit of leniency while giving marks. So ultimately the decision is yours, whether you want to study in a reputed university with a strong and reliable alumni network or opt for the easier way out by getting admission to newer institutions.

What courses should I do before pursuing an MBA at IIM Sambalpur if I have an interest in finance and marketing?

SJ
Sidhharth Jain Posted On : February 13th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (Graduated 2020)

It is completely normal to have an interest in both finance and marketing, as they are both important and widely applicable areas of business. To explore your interest in finance, there are many short, introductory courses available on platforms like Udemy that can be completed at a relatively low cost, such as for no more than INR 500. Additionally, you can read basic finance books from any commerce background to gain a solid foundation in the subject. Similarly, for marketing, there are many courses available on platforms like Udemy, as well as other sites. However, it is worth considering that pursuing an MBA program with a fresh mind and an open outlook for many possibilities may be beneficial for gaining a comprehensive understanding of marketing.

In addition to gaining specialized knowledge in finance and marketing, it is also important to have a good understanding of MS Excel and Powerpoint. These skills are widely used in the business world and will be beneficial for any professional in any vertical or specialization.

Is an ECE at NIT Goa better than a CSE at Jamia Millia Islamia?

RB
Rita Banerjee Posted On : August 25th, 2021
Studied Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering at Jamia Millia Islamia (2020)

I have cousins from both NIT Goa, and Jamia Millia Islamia and as they mention, the latter is famous for its CSE course. Usually, students do not leave the opportunity to go for the CSE course of Jamia Millia Islamia.

  • CSE is comparably better than most of the other branches in the educational domain. 
  • CSE provides you job opportunities in accordance to what you have been exposed to, academically. 
  • On the other hand, ECE is undeniably a good choice of stream. 
  • For securing a good job position, you will have to pursue majoring in one of many programming languages or web development projects. 
  • This translates to studying for your course and also pursuing something extra for exposure. 
  • While CSE students are already part of studying these domains in general. 
  • ECE students usually also go for the GATE exam. 
  • However, the only upside ECE students enjoy is finding the slightest amount of vacancies in PSU, while CS students are somewhat one step lower than it. 
Categories ECE at NIT Goa CSE at Jamia Millia Islamia
Course Fee 5.38 lakh 64,600
Highest CTC 13 LPA 20 LPA
Average CTC 6.5 LPA 8-10 LPA
Recruiting Companies L&T, Microsoft, Siemens, Infosys, etc. TCS, Wipro, Adobe, Cognizant, etc.

Apart from these few, it depends upon how hard you work. Be it ECE or CSE, you have to work hard and utilize the time and opportunities you get while studying in college.

Rohit Roy Posted On : July 9th, 2021
Studied at NIT Trichy (2019)

Considering the opportunities which may get available for you in the future, I would suggest you go for Chemical Engineering at NIT Surat as it would be a better option over metallurgy. As my sister studied there, I am very well aware of the college and its pros and cons.

  • Many PSUs and organizations recruit students of the Chemical Engineering department from NIT Surat.
  • Some of these PSUs which recruit from the college include BPCL, HPCL, IOCL, and COAL India.
  • Many people consider NIT Surathkal to be better than NIT Surat based on incomplete information and the NIRF ranking released by the Ministry of Education, India.

Categories

Chemical at NIT Surat

Metallurgy at NIT Surathkal
