The curriculum at TAPMI is extremely busy. The number of quizzes, projects, assignments, and committee work is enormous. Additionally, due dates are sacred. If you are a fresher, you go through a lot of change in terms of the development of corporate culture, and it's a pretty important lesson for an MBA graduate to learn. It can be challenging at times, but it is extremely vital. Even if you have worked, you put in more effort than usual (or you're forced to) and work to advance your management and technical skills.
You are given a lot of rigour, prepared to accept responsibility, and work in teams to complete some extraordinarily difficult jobs. A normal day begins at 8 am with classes that may begin at 8:30 am and end as late as 8:15 pm, with significant breaks in between; tests, assignments, and projects take up your afternoon. It would be a lot busier if you were on a committee or if it was placement season.
The good news is that Manipal is a great place to live and that's where you spend your evenings (at least some of them). In the midst of rural Udupi, it is a metropolitan metropolis with everything from 5-star hotels and bars to beaches and shopping centers. People party hard because alcohol is inexpensive, and those who work the hardest are also the hardest party animals!
Motor vehicles are allowed for both juniors and seniors and you must be on campus by 11:30 p.m. If you work till two or three in the morning to finish any unfinished business, the Night Canteen will save the day. However, at the end of the day, you know that you are preparing yourself for the corporate world (the placements are excellent), and that motivates you.
My friend recently graduated from NIT Jaipur with a B.tech degree in CSE. She shared her detailed review which I have mentioned below
The college will offer a plethora of opportunities and exposure so is a decent option for CS.
IIIT Bangalore provides students with a unique blend of academic excellence, personal growth, and vibrant campus experiences.
With well-maintained hostels, diverse culinary offerings, outstanding sports facilities, and access to medical and counseling services, students are well-supported in their pursuit of knowledge and personal development.
Here are a few factors that have combined to make life at NIT Kurukshetra amazing for all
These were some of the best experiences. Students of NIT Kurukshetra shared that made their lives happening and fun-filled.
Here is the experience of a student at IIT Bombay who has explained how he had spent his last days at IIT Bombay.
During the last 7 days, he experienced the most hectic and difficult days of his life at IIT. He was skipping almost a meal a day during those 7 days while developing a photobioreactor. This device converts sunlight into chemical energy using green algae which could be used for biodiesel and pharma-grade products. The experimental procedure was quite tedious and meticulous requiring measurement of 7 parameters every 4 hours, including the sweetest hours of sleep at 2 am and 6 am.
Testing all 7 parameters would take 1-2 hours, and he was left with just 2 hours before he took the next reading. He had failed numerous times in the process of building up this technology over the last year.
Whenever he failed, he would start all over again and wash the whole setup. After so many failures, he finally succeeded and was able to file a patent on the technology. Although those were the worst, hard, and most satisfying days of his life, he is happy today when he looks back, and that's all that matters in the end.
At NIT Silchar, classes begin at around 8 am. Everyone rushes off to attend their lectures, mostly on an empty stomach. At 12 noon, everyone gets a break from classes and has lunch. This is followed by lab or afternoon classes on some days and free time on some others. Afternoon sessions are held till 5 in the evening. After 5, some people go for club meetings, some hit the gym, some play their favorite sports, and others spend time with their friends. This goes on till 7-7:30 pm. Sometimes, workshops and practical lab sessions take up most of the evening.
After that, it's time to go back to hostels, get some work done, take a bath and eat by 9 pm. Football fans like to watch games on the common room TV and gamers are on their screens till 12-1 am. Midnights are meant for birthday gatherings. This hostel schedule is for boys, it may differ for girl students.
NIT Silchar has been a great experience for me, despite coming from a totally different cultural setup. You’ll find people from all over India over there. You should go to Indie Lake with friends in the evening. The campus is really big and there’s a lot to explore. The tech fest Tecnoesis and cultural-fest Incandescence are much awaited. Although NIT Silchar has undergone a lot of improvement, frequent power cuts, uncertain weather, and forest-like fields surrounding the campus may irritate you sometimes.
Regardless of a few shortcomings, you will have plenty of fun with your friends during your time at NIT Silchar. Apart from studies, you’ll be introduced to night outs, college fests, and basically finding joy in the most random things. This place will teach you not just academics but also some valuable life lessons.
IIT Kharagpur has around 15 hostels and guest houses for both girls and boys. The Hall Management Center has allotted each hostel its own private tender to serve food and thus every hostel has different quality and range of food served.
The first-year students are allotted the Lal Bahadur Shastri Hall the menu of which is excellent.
Apart from the routine mess food, there is also a Nescafe just outside the hall. Each hostel has a night canteen which runs till 3 am to satisfy midnight cravings.
Special dinner takes place twice a semester before the mid sem examination and end sem examination.
My brother had the pleasure of staying at hostels 9, 16, and now 13 in chronological order. However, he claimed not one hostel had the complete facilities one expects in a hostel. I have described each hostel in a few pointers
Hostel 9
Hostel 16
Hostel 13
Since you have specifically mentioned the aspects on which you want info, I will go straight to the point.
Learning experience: The pedagogy and curriculum are industry relevant and are updated on a yearly basis. The students are taught about Marketing from Day one covering all the arenas. It’s the relevancy and well-structured nature of the curriculum combined with excellent pedagogy that gives the students of MICA an edge over other students of B schools like IIMs during internships
The course is specially designed for Marketing enthusiasts. The students win many corporate and B-school competitions like Mahindra War Room, HUL Lime, etc. owing to the institute's specialization in Marketing. These competitions fill the gap between the theoretical and practical knowledge we gained in class.
Campus life: The MICA campus is one of the liveliest campuses across India. A student-driven committee organized fun events and kept the spirit alive on campus. We have football, cricket, Game of Thrones, and other movie screenings. Birthdays at MICA are celebrated with much fun. You will get a baggage of memories just in 2 months that will stay with you throughout your life.
ROI: MICA fees are not less given how coveted the course is. This year the fee was ?21 Lakh. The course is priced competitively but it is still not as high as the fees charged by private B Schools like NMIMS or IIMs. After interacting with a few alumni I got to know that most of them managed to repay their loans within 3-4 years. So overall the ROI is pretty good.
IIT BHU is 15th in the NIRF India Rankings 2023: Engineering. It is one of the top engineering institutes in India with a healthy curriculum and an impressive placement record.
Apart from the statistical data, IIT BHU is an old and beautiful institution that is situated in the spiritual city of Varanasi. Varanasi is a small town and for those who wish to experience clubbing and party culture during their college days, this town does not have much to offer. But for those who wish to live the joys of a small town with narrow streets and amazing local culture, IIT BHU, and Varanasi is the place for you.
My brother studied Chemical Engineering at IIT BHU, and here are some of his views regarding life at IIT BHU:
IIT BHU is an amazing place to learn, grow and make friends. It offers a plethora of opportunities to its students. You should consider IIT BHU.
