Which is better, IIT Guwahati or DTU?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 6th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Without any second thoughts go for IIT Guwahati instead of DTU. Consider the points below if you aren’t convinced already.

  • Campus: IIT Guwahati has a far more beautiful campus than DTU and also enjoys a better location than DTU.
  • Batch Size: The increasing intake of DTU is now an alarming concern while IIT Guwahati still maintains a small batch size. A small batch size improves the placement opportunities and individual attention from professors.
  • Infrastructure: IIT Guwahati being an IIT, has better infrastructure and campus facilities than DTU.
  • Placements: IIT Guwahati and DTU have similar recruiters but the same company offers more roles and better packages in IIT Guwahati than DTU.
  • Brand Name: The IIT tag especially of the old IITs is any day better than any other institute.
  • Diversity: IIT Guwahati has a more diverse student crowd than DTU because DTU has a reservation for Delhites.

In all, it can be safely concluded that IIT Guwahati is a far better choice than DTU.

Is IIM Nagpur good for freshers or not since I have heard that the max batch is experienced (I converted)?

RY
Raja Yayathi Posted On : February 4th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Management Ranchi (Expected 2023)

When considering which MBA program to attend, it is important to not rely solely on hearsay and to research different options thoroughly. While it is true that many students at IIM Nagpur have work experience, this is not the case for all students. If an individual is not comfortable working with students who have work experience, it is suggested to explore other options, or even wait a year and take the CAT 2021 exam in the hopes of securing a spot in an even better IIM.

It's important to note that as a fresher, there are some challenges that one may face when studying among a large number of work-experienced students. These challenges could include being perceived as less experienced, having ideas and answers dismissed, or being passed over for leadership roles in group projects. This is why, it's essential to evaluate one's own comfort level, strengths, and weaknesses and decide accordingly. Furthermore, it's not a one-size-fits-all solution and different individuals may have different reasons to prefer one institute over the other.

Is IIM Nagpur good for giving placements in Nagpur?

RY
Raja Yayati Yadav Posted On : February 4th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Management, Nagpur (Graduated 2020)

IIM Nagpur is currently one of the fastest-growing institutes among the new IIMs and has been making significant efforts to increase its batch size, academic programs, and placement opportunities. This is evident in the strong placement statistics that the institute has been able to achieve. According to media reports, the 2021-23 batch of the flagship MBA program at IIM Nagpur successfully completed its placement drive, with the highest package offered to be INR 64 LPA, and the average and median packages standing at INR 16.74 LPA and INR 16.85 LPA, respectively.

Over 100 top companies participated in the placement drive, including well-known firms such as Microsoft, Adani, ICICI Bank, and Bank of America. Furthermore, the IT & Consulting sectors and the ITES & BFSI sectors emerged as the leading sectors for placements, accounting for over 70% of the total placements from the 2021-23 batch.

IIM Nagpur is also expanding its field immersion programs to various countries such as Japan, South Korea, France, and Dubai, in addition to its student exchange program. This can present better opportunities for students in multinational companies this year. For people considering an MBA program and looking for an institute, IIM Nagpur would be a great option for considering, especially for those who have job experience of over a year, as it provides a great opportunity for growth. It's not as good as the older IIMs (BLACKI IIMs) but could be a good next-best option.

Which college should I prefer among Jaipuria Lucknow, NDIM, JIMS, Asia Pacific, IMS Jaypee Business School, IMS Ghaziabad, and ITM Navi Mumbai? I've got a call for GDPI.

SJ
Sidhharth Jain Posted On : February 21st, 2023
Studied at Delhi Public School

Based on your education as an alumnus of JIMS Rohini (PGDM) and IMS (BBA), and your work experience of 7 years in the skill development sector for higher education in India, you are qualified to answer this question.

It is important to note that the colleges you mentioned are considered to be 'Tier 4 & Tier 5' B-Schools, meaning they are below average in comparison to other B-Schools. The median package offered at these schools is typically around 3-4 LPA with faculty that may not be as competent as those at higher-ranked institutions.

When comparing these institutes, you will find that they charge similar academic fees, but the placement opportunities and international placements they advertise may not always be attainable. Investing 7-8 LPA or more in an unstable job that pays less than half of the fees you paid for your education may not be a wise decision. Additionally, obtaining an MBA from these institutions is not only a financial investment but also an investment of your time and efforts.

For a better return on investment, it is recommended to attempt the CAT exam and try to get into the IIMs or FMS, as opposed to institutions like JIMS Rohini, Jaipuria Institute of Management Noida, or Asia Pacific.

In conclusion, it is not recommended to pursue an MBA from these colleges. A better option may be to invest the money into a fixed deposit or start your own business.

Is MSU Baroda a good place to study textile engineering?

FS
Farah Shah Posted On : December 31st, 2022
B.E. in Textile Technology, The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda (Graduated 2018)

Whether MSU Baroda is a good place to study textile engineering depends on a few factors.

If you are from Gujarat and do not want to study outside of Gujarat, you can choose MSU Baroda because there are only a few options for Textile Engineering in Gujarat. Otherwise, there are better textile colleges outside of Gujarat, such as IIT Delhi, DKTE (Maharashtra), GCTI (Kanpur, UP), and so on.

The majority of the teachers in the Textile Department at MSU Baroda are excellent and helpful. There is also a good learning infrastructure. If you are unsure whether to pursue a career in Textile Engineering, you should look into other options.

What is your review of Dibrugarh University Institute of Engineering Technology DUIET?

SK
Samrat Khanna Posted On : October 18th, 2021
Studied B. Tech Mechanical Engineering, Dibrugarh University Institute of Engineering and Technology

During the first year, the students of all branches will have a common classroom for all subjects. It is from the 3rd semester that you will be well acquainted with respective branches. The teachers are very dedicated and cooperative and the classes are held regularly.

Alongside academics, you would be left with enough time to excel through various extra-curricular activities. The annual tech fest “Auxesis” is held every odd semester and the University Week is held every even semester. The workload becomes exhausting during these semesters.

The campus is serene and splendid. The greenery everywhere brings out the best of the serene beauty and creates an enthusiastic environment for studying. Overall, your college time here would be terrific.

Everyone has their own individual perspective and opinions thus; your experience might be very much different and better too.
