Would you suggest joining NICMAR right after BE?

AJ
Akhil Juneja Posted On : September 29th, 2021
Studied at the National Institute of Construction Management and Research

If you join NICMAR as a fresher or with experience of 1-2 years, you may get placed with an average package of INR 5 LPA. However, if you have experience of more than 2 years, the average package offered will automatically increase to 6-7 LPA in NICMAR. 

It must be noted that the placement opportunities are also dependent on academic records and fair communication skills. You should be capable in this regard as well. 

You can join NICMAR after BE but as a fresher, you need to work hard to relate the classroom fundas with real-life project conditions and issues.

AN
Aaditya Hari Nair Posted On : September 13th, 2021

The procedure to get into the NICMAR Pune is not at all difficult because you need to pass an entrance and a personal interview. 

The entrance is nothing else than the NCAT, which you have to pass with flying colors, and then there will be a personal interview scheduled after the exam. 

If you manage to pass the personal interview, you will get admission in NICMAR, or else, work harder for your next attempt. NCAT is not that tough. It's easy if one prepares well.
