What is the college timing in NIT Trichy?

BS
Bharti Shah Posted On : September 1st, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli

The classes at NIT Trichy start at 8:30 AM and lasts till 5:10 PM. There will be classes in two phases. The timing for morning classes is from 8:30 AM to 12:10 PM and for afternoon classes it is 1:30 PM to 5:10 PM. 

On some days, afternoon classes will be canceled and only the morning classes will be conducted. The number of cancelled classes depends from department to department. The CSE department has a lot of cancelled classes and you would be free by 3:30 PM. But this is not the case with EEE & ECE departments as here all the classes are conducted regularly. 

If you are residing in these hostels Garnet, Agate, Coral, Diamond then you can wake up before 5-10 mins of classes as it is located nearby to the lecture halls and you can easily reach on time. But if you are residing in Amber or Opal hostels, you will have to wake up at least 30 minutes earlier to attend the classes on time as the rooms are very far from the lecture halls. 

The timing for hostels depends upon the class. For 1st year boys, the entry timing is till 9:30 PM and for others, there are no such fixed timings and you can come at any time. But for girls, the timing is only till 9 PM and there is no exception in timings for anyone.

  • The first 2 semesters, however, you will have to study alongside the 4th year BE students.
  • Following that, on the basis of your over 1st and 2nd semester’s CGPA, you can go on to choosing your preferable engineering branch.
  • It partly also depends upon your individual performance and branch availability.

How does the internship program work in the PES University?

KS
Khushi Sengupta Posted On : June 1st, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, PES University (2019)

I have a few friends at PEC. And based on the information I got from them, here are some of the facts about the internship program work at the PES University.

  • Some of the foreign institutions such as Carnegie Mellon University, NTU (Singapore), and some others do take a few of the students from the sixth semester for Summer internship programs. But the students have to pay quite a big amount to avail these internships in these institutions.
  • It is important to note that these internships mainly offer subjects from CS such as Machine Learning and AI. These internship opportunities are limited to students from the CS department only and those few students from other branches who have an interest in programming.
  • However, some Multinational companies such as Microsoft, Goldman Sachs (Software and Business analyst profiles), GE Digital, NASDAQ, Cisco (Software, Hardware, Business analyst and project analyst profiles), Kirloskar, Toyota, TVS visit the campus for hiring students for a summer internship from CS, EC, and mechanical department. Sometimes, these summer internships are also converted into pre-placement offers according to performance.

In the 8th semester, the internship companies visit the campus for placement drive and offer internships as well as a Full-time placement offer. Overall, the placement is good and if the performance of the student is good, they can land in a good place.

Is rural management from XIMB - 3 years work experience with TCS worth it?

AK
Anjini Kumar Posted On : April 20th, 2021
Ph.D. in Strategic Management, Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (2020)

Firstly, it is important to understand what management means to you. Yes, just like People going to Microsoft or Google post-Engineering were passionate about coding/computers vis-a-vis those who opted for say a TCS/Wipro. Therefore, if a Management education is an escape route from the monotonous coding life, do not go for this degree. Simply because after a few years of working, you might find yourself in a regretful situation.

Now coming to XIMB, Bhubaneswar as a college, these are the key highlights.

  • The colleges have an impeccable infrastructure.
  • The faculty is great.
  • Great campus culture
  • Good placements

However, check the following reasons why you should not go for the Rural Management course.

  • The Rural Management course requires a lot of fieldwork and expedition which won’t suffice the basic ROI model.
  • The course is shifted to the other campus which is situated in a suburban area. This is a huge downfall as you might be curtailed from important facilities and infrastructure.
  • Placement may not be that great, having invested 13 lacs as the course fee itself. With mediocre placement records, this might not be a good return on your investment.
  • With a 3 year experience in TCS and a continuous C band, the salary you have now will be more or less equal to what you might get after placements. Hence, it won’t make a huge difference.
  • Undoubtedly, the scope for courses like Rural Management is limited, that’s why most people who acquire an RM degree go for corporate jobs at last.

Categories

Rural Management in XIMB

Course Fee

13.80 lakh

Highest CTC

13.2 LPA

Average CTC

9 LPA

Overall, if you are very much into the management sector, go for courses like MBA and other PGDM courses instead of Rural Management. Limited scope, extensive fieldwork, mediocre placements is not a good return when you pay such a high fee. Hence, choose wisely.

What is the reputation of IIIT Hyderabad in the Silicon Valley?

AJ
Adinath Jain Posted On : July 28th, 2023
Studied at IIIT Hyderabad

Honestly, IIIT Hyderabad does not receive the hype it deserves and does not highly regard in Silicon Valley either. No donut, it has many big recruiters but given its top-notch faculty and education, it should have a much better reputation than it has today. I personally feel that this stems from a few flaws of the institute. For instance,  it lacks a lot of the essential Math, EE, Design, and even several Business, Finance, and Management courses which are prominent in IITs and BITS. IIIT Hyderabad curriculum revolves around programming only and getting a lucrative package at Google MTV or Microsoft Redmond or Facebook seems to be the ultimate goal of the CS students here. People fail to realize that no matter how huge the package offered is, they are just routine Software Engineering jobs at the end of the day. Many IIT graduates give up on such offers just to pursue entrepreneurship or research.

Comparing IIIT Hyderabad with any old IIT says IIT Guwahati, you will see that although the latter has lower placement statistics, its graduates have diverse prospects like MS/PhDs from top US Universities,  MBAs from Harvard-Stanford-Wharton, unlike IIIT Hyderabad students who end up with the most monotonous jobs as Software Engineers.

In a nutshell, the reason IIIT Hyderabad has failed to gain a good reputation in silicon valley is the lack of diversity and flexibility in its curriculum and has nothing to do with the quality of its education or job opportunities.

Which is better: Anna University or SSN?

MU
Monish Uday Posted On : December 1st, 2022
Studied at Madras Institute of Technology , Tamil Nadu, India

One of my relatives happened to choose SSN. She has visited the campuses of both the colleges namely, Anna University and SSN. She told me that SSN was way ahead of AU in many aspects. Some amazing features of SSN are:

  • Amazing infrastructure with top notch Wi-Fi facilities 

  • Diverse crowd which helps you get more exposure 

  • SSN does not force its students to attend classes

  • SSN emphasises on the overall development of its students and fulfilling their dreams

  • Good hostel facilities 

My relative completed her M.E. from SSN and went to CEG to pursue PhD. She regrets this decision a lot. She had listed so many shortcomings of CEG. Some of them have been listed below.

  • Lack of proper sanitation facilities

  • No emphasis on extracurricular activities or club activities

  • Lack of transport facilities 

So SSN focuses more on quality rather than quantity.
