What are some must-have experiences at IIT Guwahati that you would recommend your juniors to experience?

SG
Srimona Gupta Posted On : April 29th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (2020)

One of my cousins shared a very adventurous experience at IIT Guwahati and she highly recommended every IIT Guwahati to try this once in their life. Visible right from the campus, you can see a mountain peak. She along with her friends decided to climb the mountain and teach the top of it. Although it seemed impossible they embarked on this journey with full confidence and determination.

The journey was indeed tiring with thorns, slippery soil, and rocks becoming major obstacles. But their determination took the better of them and they finally made it to the top. The exhilarating feeling of accomplishment thrilled them to the bone. They were in awe at the spectacular view and the fresh air. They even had snacks and rested there for an hour. 

Here are a few things you can keep in mind if you plan to executive this trip one day.

  • Wear a full sleeved jacket, track pant, and shoes
  • Carry water bottles and some snacks
  • Bring a strong stick for support 
  • Climb only if you are confident 

Many may not consider it safe, and rightly so. But the outcome is too great to be missed.

Is it better to take metallurgy in NIT Rourkela or electrical in NIT Silchar?

RH
Rituparna Hazra Posted On : July 5th, 2021
B.Tech in E.C.E from National Institute of Technology Silchar (2020)

You need to compare the two universities to make a decision between the two. Having friends studying in both the institutes, I might be able to help you with the question.

Metallurgy at NIT Rourkela:

  • Campus-wise, the college has a very large campus.
  • But, if you are planning to pursue metallurgy, let me tell you that you will have lesser job opportunities in both the public and private sectors in India.
  • You might have to shift to another country to get a well-paying job and earn decently in your field of study.

Electrical at NIT Silchar:

  • There are also some really good facilities here including the largest digital library in South Asia.
  • The campus is really good too.
  • The placement records are amazing. Moreover, electrical is an evergreen branch with decent scope in the public sector. This would surely make a good alternative.

What are changes made or added in NSIT after it became NSUT?

LS
Lakshminath Sinha Posted On : August 21st, 2023
B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering, Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology

NSIT (Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology) became NSUT (Netaji Subhas University of Technology) in 2018. As a result of this change, a few key changes were made to the institution:

  1. NSUT transitioned from being a college to a full-fledged university. This means that it now has the autonomy to offer undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral degrees, as well as conduct research.
  2. Students now get an NSUT degree instead of a DU degree. 
  3. The intake has increased drastically.
  4. The course offered at the UG level now is BTech instead of BE.
  5. The infrastructure is being improved and an additional canteen is under the way.
  6. The curriculum was updated to include new courses and specializations, such as Artificial Intelligence and Data Science.
  7. The university also established new research centers and labs to support its academic and research programs.
  8. The university also expanded its campus, including new academic buildings and sports facilities.
  9. The university also changed its name from Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology to Netaji Subhas University of Technology.

These are some changes that have been made ever since NSUT became NSUT. More changes are expected in the future!

Can I apply for LLB after graduating B.A through IGNOU correspondence study?

DM
Devraj Mehta Posted On : November 3rd, 2022
Works at ICICI Bank

The eligibility criteria for various universities vary. Because IGNOU is a recognized university, you can certainly apply for admission to pursue LLB if you take the CET.

The Bar Council of India does not recognize law degree programs completed through distance education, so IGNOU does not offer 3-year LLB, BA LLB, BBA LLB, or LLM programs. It should be noted that no entrance exam is required for IGNOU law programs (except for Ph.D. in Law). Candidates must simply register for IGNOU law programs by completing the application form and submitting their application fee, as well as the course fee.

How does it feel to sit for campus placements in NIT Warangal ?

CR
Chitra Roy Posted On : August 17th, 2023
M.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Warangal

Like most engineering institutes, placements at NIT Warangal are broadly categorized to CS and Non CS placements. Currently, the huge batch size has made placements a more competitive sport. Students go through a number of emotions before sitting for placements. Most students are able to secure good packages and jobs given the fact that NIT Warangal admits the best minds of the country. 

The placement process is complex and students have to go through a number of screening processes from Aptitude Test, Coding Test, Group Discussions, and several peer-to-peers interview sessions with company employees to the HR round. Every round evaluates you from a different angle to ensure thorough screening of the students.

Placements in NIT Warangal commence from mid-July. The first day is the most nerve-wracking experience for the students and their anxiety levels are high. Those who are able to manage the stress and perform excellently, end up with a good package and the celebration begins. Those who fail, feel embarrassed to face their peers. The companies keep visiting every alternate day in the first month so if you don't get selected, don't lose hope.

How did you manage your UPSC preparation while doing an M.Tech from IIT Delhi?

SG
Sushmita Gupta Posted On : April 1st, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

The key to manage your UPSC preparation while doing an MTech from IIT Delhi is to score well in your optional subjects rather than General Subjects. A successful candidate scores 275+ in optional whereas an unsuccessful candidate scores around 240. The General Subjects' scores are usually the same.

So prepare well for optional in MTech because you can prepare for GS in just a year. Focus more on optional as it’s a major criterion for selection.

How do I apply for a foreign language course in DU?

S
Saloni Posted On : October 10th, 2022
Bsc.(H)Mathematics from Lady Shri Ram College for Women

Admission to foreign language courses at Delhi University is relatively simple. You must investigate which colleges offer such courses and which languages are available. You should make a list of colleges that you will be comfortable in based on your requirements and the faculty.

Once you have a list, go to each college's website and look for all of the information there. The date of form distribution, the application deadline, the fee structure, time slots, and other pertinent information.

You can fill out the form online and then keep checking the site for the list. Once the list is published, you must check your name to see if it is on it, and if it is, you must go to the respective college with all of your documents in hard copy. They'll check your documents, and if everything checks out, you'll be seated.

After you've been admitted, you must pay the fees online within a certain number of days. Following payment, you will receive an email confirming your registration as a language student.

The forms are usually available in June and July, and there is a minimum fee for the form.

How is the placement of metallurgy in IIT BHU, Varanasi?

PM
Prashanth Mathur Posted On : August 14th, 2020
M.Tech Metallurgy & Materials Science and Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (2018)

The placement scenario of IIT-BHU metallurgical engineering is not as good as other branches but this is improving every year. More companies like Tata Steel, Tata Motors, and Saint Gobain are coming with job offers for B.Tech, IDD, and M.Tech students. The chances of getting placed are more for a B.Tech student than for an M.Tech student.

  • In the year 2016, 52 B.Tech, 16 IDD, and 10 M.Tech students registered for placement out of which 36 B.Tech, 11 IDD, and 1 M.Tech student secured jobs. The highest CTC was 13 LPA, the lowest CTC was 5 LPA and the average CTC was 7.78 LPA. These statistics have improved in successive years.

  • In the year 2019, 44 out of 47 registered students got placed and the average CTC was 9.67 LPA. This clearly shows that the percentage of students getting placed and the average package amount has improved over the years.

Moreover, not all students register for placement rather they prepare for other entrance examinations like CAT, GATE, GRE, UPSC, etc. The chances of clearing these entrance examinations are higher here than other IITs because one gets more free time in IIT-BHU and can spend more time in personal development. This will help them in grabbing good jobs even without registering for placements.

Some non-core companies also present job offers that are open to all branches. These recruiters only look for a particular set of skills that one can acquire through online courses in their free time. Thus there are many opportunities for the students and it depends on the student how he/she grabs the opportunity
