Course Curriculum Overview

4

My love for physics and Electromagnetism influenced me to take an Electrical Engineering course. It's a prestigious university and its course curriculum is also of that level. This curriculum includes Theory classes along with Laboratory sessions that prepare us to be ready for real-world applications. The course curriculum was available to all students beforehand to know everything that what he/she will study in his/her next 4 years. I think the course curriculum is great however the teaching methods that can be improved by the use of new technologies. The exams were very frequent, In a semester we have to give 2 quizzes and a midsem and an endsem for all 5 subjects each and this all in just 4 months but this is a speciality of an engineer that to manage his time in such a hectic schedule also. The difficulty level of the exam is also high enough that one can't get good marks until he knows the concepts clearly.

Our campus is lively with various events throughout the year. We have our annual cultural fest called Srijan Technical fest called Concetto, Geo-mining fest called Khanan, Sports fest Parakram, and Alumni get-together fest called Basant. The Srijan and Basant happen in February, Khanan in November Concetto in October, and Parakram in March.

Various sports and extracurricular activities happen in campus there is a coach for every sport and they train you for competitions like Parakram, Inter-IIT also some NGOs like Kartavya and FFI help poor students from nearby localities by teaching and providing them with study materials also organize blood camps for blood banks.

Admission

As this is an IIT, To get admission here Firstly You have to take the JEE mains exam. At our time there used to be 4 rounds of the JEE Mains exam and Your maximum percentile among all 4 would be considered for a cutoff It was around 90% and to be eligible for give JEE advance Exam. The JEE advance exam happened in July, and its results were also released in August. After Qualifying JEE Advanced exam too you have to go through JOSSA counselling. In JOSSA counselling you have to give your list of colleges priority wise and you will be allotted college based on your AIR. After JOSSA counseling of 6 rounds, you will be allotted a college and then you will receive an offer letter from a college. For me, at IIT Dhanbad after taking admission firstly we were introduced to college through an orientation session with our respected director. After this we were called to campus for pre-registration for our course there we had to submit our documents and verify our identity. That's it !!

Course Curriculum Overview:

Since I am a diploma holder in civil engineering, I had to choose the same branch in B.Tech also. But actually I chose this college because my diploma friends were taking admission in the same college. The college needs some improvements, but the surrounding areas need more improvement.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I will rate the course curriculum decent because it cover the basic engineering concepts that made me choose this course and it prepare us okay for real-world or higher study, but still more practical work and updated teaching method needed, and exams come mostly every semester with some internals which are moderate tough but manageable with regular study. There are some teachers who teach very well and have good teaching methods.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I feel the course curriculum is okay and the basics are covered well, which is one reason I choose this branch, but some subjects feel outdated and not fully connected to real industry work. It prepare us for further studies more than practical jobs. Exams come every semester with internals in between, difficulty is moderate but few papers become tricky. I think more practical topics, updated labs and better teaching methods will make the curriculum more useful...

One of my colleges best features is its placements program, which offers fantastic chances for students to launch their carrers. In the fifth and sixth semesters, students are prepared with aptitude training sessions, group discussions, and resume construction. About 85% of qualified pupils were placed during the previoes school year. Compared to core engieering fields, placements rates were marginally higher in IT branches.
