Course Curriculum Overview

4

i choose this course as this has some of the unique subjects which i would be taught and no otehr department is taught.also this is a really famous curriculum in foreign and almost all ivy league universities provide this course nbut in india IIT kgp provided this and since a long time so here the proff are really experienced in their domain and influenced by the alumni network of this department. in my opinion this course has most application in real life coz as an industrial engineer i need to know how the industry works how to deal with clients what all problems come and how to optimistically and practically solve it.the exposure this branch gives to their students is indeed the best and also practical in real life.we learn engineering along with management which gives the best fusion for a successful entrepreuneur.also we can work in non core field like AI ML and find its applications in our core field which is practical.

Admission

i applied for BITS and IIT only. i was sure about getting an iit but if i was not introduced this department in right time i would have not known and chosen bits over iit.after i researched about this curriculum i found it really intresting also talked to many alumnis of iit i made this decision of choosing bits cse over iit kgp IM branch no i didnt get rejected from a college as i was goal oriented in clearing jee and as a backup option kept bits in place so i gave bitsat.admisiion process of colleges like iit nit and otehr state colleges is after the jee advanced result there is a jossaaa council which conducts this and it takes place online.also to give students a feel how this works they also provide you moke rounds.the students have to decide a priority in which they keep the respective colleges and branches and after they submit there priorities they float/freeze/slide. float is basically trying for an upper priority college in next round/freeze is locking the college.

Faculty

my department faculties and some of the other proff i really like and they teach well and cooperative. some of the proff are really mean they dont provide slides and also teach really fast best faculties should be of my department really grateful to have them though our department courses will start in 3 sem i was really intrigued by how passionately they took our seminar and introduced us to our department. some core subjects which all the departments have have some really unhelpful proff there are midsem endsem and class test weightage is most for endsem then midsem then class test some proff give marks for attendence and some dont. also class test and lab test are important as they are graded on every test and then mean is taken. exams are generally easy for midsem and tough for endsem.thoguh we cant predict a definitive pattern for difficulty but if an exam comes tough the grading becomes relative as proff consider it not to go so harsh on us.

Placement Experience:

Placements depends on your skills Usually there is a compulsory internship at the end of 3rd year If you didnt get it via college you should do it from outside but its compulsory And at the end of 4th year you get placement. Placemeng isnt 100% . If you have the skill you will get placed thats the criteria.many people say you are in IIT your life is sorted .but that aint the reality

Placement Experience:

Students generally start getting their pre-placement offers from their 3rd year after completion of their internships other students gets their placement too in their final year. Starting from Apple to Google and Microsoft too hired some of our senior but the number of the students get placed in those tech giant companies is very less but there are mass recruiters too like TCS infosys PW chaitanya education TATA steel BHARAT petroleum and many other companies the offers are made based upon the eligibility of the students and the packages are decided based on the skillset and experience of the students . Highest package was 70 LPA this year and the average packages are also pretty good based upom the companies and their offers it ranges from 15-30 LPA .Almost 80-83% students gets placed but it depends on the branch of the students and their skillsets.I want to sit for GATE exam after completion of my BTech and want to persue MTech

Course Curriculum Overview:

The university is MAKAUT so the curriculum is up to the mark. I liked Programming so I chose B.TECH in CSE. The curriculum is very basic in terms of practical world problem though they are building blocks, but you need to do the extra bit of work to qualify for the real world scenarios. I think more mandatory projects integrated with current set of skills would be a cherry on top. Exams are very frequent like every 3-4 months there is a semester exam and they are moderately difficult.
