Nirma University Ahmedabad, Ahmedabad Comparison

Although DA-IICT is unquestionably better than Nirma, Nirma is more well-known in Gujarat and other regions since it is older than DA-IICT. But DA-IICT has made a huge development in aspects like academic excellence, infrastructure, faculty, etc. The reasons for choosing DA-IICT are mentioned below:

• Ranking & accreditation: According to the IIRF report 2023, DA-IICT ranked 1 among the top engineering colleges of India. The institution is accredited Grade A by NAAC.
• Placement Records: The highest salary package offered is 54 LPA. The average salary package offered is 16-17 LPA. Almost 100% of students got placed.
• Industry Connections: The university's connections with industry partners. lead to better internship opportunities, guest lectures, and networking.
• Alumni Network: A strong alumni network can be valuable for networking and job placement after graduation. Krishank Dubey (Co-Founder at FeedCraft, Raipur), Bhavesh Manglani (Co-Founder at Delhivery, Gurgaon), and many more professionals are notable alumni of this organization.
• Financial Considerations: The university provides scholarships ( DA-IICT Merit & Merit-cum-Means Scholarships, Cybage Khushboo Scholarships, Jai Jhulelal Scholarships for B.Tech. students) up to 100% to the students based on their merit and scores in different exams like CAT, GMAT, etc.

DA-IICT offers a compelling opportunity for a solid academic foundation, good placement statistics, and a dynamic learning environment that is ideal for being a better choice than Nirma University.

IIIT Guwahati is a relatively new institute so its placement might not be at par with NITSilchar. Here is a brief comparison of the placement statistics of both institutes

Moreover, the academic environment is much better at NIT Silchar than at IIIT Guwahati. As for the location, NIT Silchar is gradually overcoming all connectivity issues and the situation is only going to get better. 

Ultimately, the final choice depends on your preferences. If you are inclined towards Mechanical, choose NIT Silchar but if you want to pursue a career in CS, definitely go for IIIT Guwahati.

All three colleges fall under the Tier 2 category of MBA colleges in India. However, TAPMI and GIM possess a slight edge over Nirma as they have a stronger brand reputation and placement figures. 

When it comes to TAPMI and GIM, the former is known for finance and marketing while the latter is known for marketing as some top FMCG companies recruit from there. GIM could be considered slightly better if someone wishes to pursue marketing, and it also has a smaller batch size than TAPMI. The bigger the batch size, the harder it is for the placement team of any college.

If you are 25-26 years of age, I would suggest you go for one more attempt along with your job. If you even get into TAPMI with this much experience there are high chances that you will not get a good placement. 

Having this much work experience, you can go for MBA from BLACKI (Banglore, Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Calcutta, Kozhikode, Indore), XLRI Jamshedpur, FMS, and other premium institutes. 

These institutes can easily offer a package of more than 25 lacs and even a good strategy and consulting profile and plus you can get a tag for a lifetime which will help you to accelerate your career.
