Which is better for mechanical engineering - the NIT in Calicut or BITS Goa?

DK
Deepika Khatri Posted On : August 24th, 2021
Studied Mechanical Engineering at National Institute of Technology, Calicut

If you are fine with the higher fee structure of BITS Goa, then it will be a better choice for you. The infrastructure of both colleges is similar to each other but the alumni network is better at BITS Goa compared to NIT Calicut. 

But if you are interested in mechanical engineering and want to pursue it as your passion, then you should probably choose NIT Calicut. The placement records of the Mechanical department in core companies are better at NIT Calicut. The average package offered is also higher than BITS Goa. Many students opt for jobs in non-core companies especially in the IT sector from BITS Goa and they learn coding too during their graduation. 

If you are looking for a job related straight to what you have studied, then choose NIT Calicut. However, if you have a plan to go for higher education, probably abroad, then BITS Goa will be a better choice. Its alumni network will also help you a lot in securing a job in a reputed company.

Studied at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2019)

IIEST Shibpur is an excellent institute for courses in engineering, especially civil engineering. It is a well-established and well-known branch. There are several advantages of being in IIEST Shibpur and having a degree from the institute.

My brother has studied there and the points below are his experience at the institute: 

  • There are excellent faculties in the Civil engineering department, except a couple of faculties who are not that great as evident from student reviews.
  • There are innumerous projects and researches going on in the Civil engineering department at IIEST. The teachers and lecturers are excellent in their guidance for students interested in project works and show a lot of enthusiasm in the same.
  • Above all, IIEST has gained central status a few years back, which ensures the development in research and teaching methodologies even further with time.

Therefore, Civil engineering at IIEST is definitely a great choice for students, maybe even better than NIT Raipur in certain areas.

I got AIIMS Raipur in the 2nd round of counseling. Should I leave Seth GS for that?

MT
Mukund Tapdiya Posted On : November 16th, 2022
Studied at All India Institute of Medical Sciences

Whether you should leave Seth GS for AIIMS or not can be understood only after going through a general comparison between the two:

Academics: The academics of both colleges are somewhat similar.

Lifestyle: KEM is located in Mumbai so you will have to go through the metro lifestyle which includes pollution, crowd, and an unhygienic lifestyle.

Hostel: Hostel facilities are much better in AIIMS than in KEM. Also, KEM does not provide hostel facilities to 1st-year students. The hostels in KEM are very crowded.

Crowd: KEM has a larger batch and there might be crowding.

The final decision is yours.

Which is a better option for marketing, TAPMI PGDM or FORE PGDM?

MR
Mihir Roy Posted On : August 5th, 2021
Studied at Jadavpur University (2019)

Both TAPMI and FORE are very reputed institutions and are very good choices to pursue PGDM. As some of my friends studied in the above-mentioned colleges, I can provide some facts that might be useful for you while making a decision.

  • FORE is situated in Delhi which is an added advantage as this is the capital city and has better facilities and easy access to all parts of the country.
  • This also attracts a lot more companies to visit the campus for interviews.
  • The total seats available in TAPMI is 455 and in FORE it is 420 (180 for PGDM, 120 for IB, 60 for FM, 60 for BDA). So, the competition will be less in FORE and the students will get more opportunities.
  • Also FORE doesn't have any restrictions on placements, so any student from any stream can sit for all campus interviews.
  • FORE has better connections in the corporate industry and has a better alumni network which is another advantage over TAPMI.
Categories PGDM at TAPMI PGDM at FORE
Course Fee 15.1 lakhs 15.98 lakhs
Highest CTC 18-20 LPA 25 LPA
Average CTC 11-12 LPA 16 LPA
Recruiting Companies KPMG, Asian Paints, Mercedes, Adobe, etc. American Express, HSBC, Barclays, Mindtree, etc.

Hence, both the colleges are very good options to pursue PGDM, but FORE has some added advantages over TAPMI like better location and alumni which can be very beneficial for you.

I am interested in pursuing PGDBA offered by IIT KGP, IIM C, and ISI Kolkata. Have little to no programming experience. Should I pursue this career? 

GD
Gargi Devnath Posted On : September 15th, 2021
PGDBA Business Analytics & Data Science, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (2017)

My brother is doing his PGDBA from IIT KGP and he was rather afraid of programming and coding when he started the course. If you're stuck in the same situation, then my only advice is to enroll in the course with an open mind and a desire to learn to program if you don't already know-how. 

Coding Experience: There is always a first time of everything. Now there are numerous MOOCs available online that can assist you in taking the initial step. The discipline of analytics (technical side) necessitates solid coding abilities, and therefore if you want to pursue a career in analytics, you should start learning the necessary skills now.

Work Experience: It is not necessary to have prior work experience to enroll in the course. However, relevant analytical experience aids in extracting greater value from the course. 

According to your assessment of your interests, you have a preference for fields involving mathematics and statistics. Analytical science is an excellent fit in that regard. I would recommend that you go into MOOCs like Coursera, audacity, and your willingness to learn more about this field. You will obtain a better understanding of the field and would be able to decide if this is a good fit for you or not.

Which is a better place to pursue MPH: Manipal University or IIPH?

NS
Nishtha Sharma Posted On : July 28th, 2021
B.V.Sc & A.H. from G.B Pant University of Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand (2018)

My sister is pursuing MPH from IIPH and the University of Hyderabad. She is going to graduate in April of 2022. MPH in both Manipal and IIPH is structured in the same manner.

Here are the advantages of IIPH though:

  • IIPH has is a public health organization and it aims towards public health only.
  • Most of the IIPH professors are serving as guest faculty of Manipal too. You can assume the quality of education these professors offer.
  • IIPH courses are cost-effective too when you compare them to Manipal's.
  • You will discover brilliant Faculty members at IIPH like the esteemed epidemiologist Dr. Raghupathy Achla; Dr. Rajan Shukla of Health Policy and Dr. Nand Kishore Kannuri.
  • If you compare IIPH's faculty with any other institute's, then only TISS gets the upper hand.

As for working abroad, there are good chances but if you plan to work for India, then be aware of the ground realities because it's very different. The placement rate is about 80% but if you have the requisite skills then you should not worry at all.
