MAKAUT offers excellent learning resources to students. You can utilize the weekends to upskill yourself. If you are a software engineering student, you can learn various coding languages such as C, C++, Java, etc. Having knowledge of different coding languages can help you a lot during placements. If you are a student of Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or Electrical Engineering, you can learn Auto CAD. MAKAUT also offers the opportunity to learn other software such as MEP, CATIA, etc. 

You can use the weekends to do internships or training as well. These will certainly add value to your resume. You can prepare for jobs by working on your communication skills, soft skills, personality management, etc. Many students also use the weekends to catch up with their hobbies.

Are the final projects in the MAKAUT final year done individually or in groups?

SB
Sushmita Banerjee Posted On : June 23rd, 2023
B.Tech from Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University Of Technology

The final year projects in the MAKAUT are done either in groups of 5 students or fewer each. Some students prefer doing their projects alone to impress the invigilators and end up in books. Usually, students doing their projects alone get better grades than those doing them in groups.

Projects done in a group include maximum efforts of only one or two students while the rest of the members just while away their time and make no major contributions. Some of the professors are well aware of this practice and thus give low grades to students involved in group projects while some professors give good grades nevertheless. 

In my opinion, if you genuinely want to learn while making the project, do it alone. This will be the first project you will be working on alone and will impact your degree too.

Is there any fee waiver for SC student in the MAKAUT college(formerly, WBUT) for the B.Tech IT program?

Recently, there were complaints regarding the high fees charged by MAKAUT and many students in the affiliated colleges of the University were facing hardship during the studentship. Some cases that resulted in this situation are

  • Death of a Parent /Guardian / Earning Member of the family
  • Accident faced during their studentship

The university thereby introduced measures to extend relief to the casualty-stricken students. Soon the Student Welfare Committee (SWC) was organized. The body suggested that 100% (50% of the semester Fee will be waived by the respective colleges and the remaining 50% will be provided by the University.

There aren’t any specific fee waiver policies for SC students at MAKAUT.

If a student failed or remains absent in a lab exam in MAKAUT, will he get a year lag?

PS

No, if a student fails or absent in a lab exam in MAKAUT he does not necessarily get a year lag. In case you face a similar situation and somehow are not able to appear for a lab exam, contact your faculty and they will give you passing marks. The lab exam is of 100 marks that comprise other aspects apart from the lab exam itself. These include

  • Divided into attendance
  • Lab assignment
  • Lab performance

So even if you do not appear for the lab exam you will be marked on the above criteria and get passing marks. Honestly, you don't need to worry about the lab exams at MAKAUT as it's nearly impossible to fail.

Is it possible for recruiters to check if someone had a backlog in their 1st semester even after clearing it in the 3rd semester under MAKAUT?

KR
Kritika Roy Posted On : July 7th, 2023
studied at Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University Of Technology

Yes, they would carefully analyze the backlog even after you cleared it in the third semester. The certificate provided by MAKAUT clearly mentions the year of passing, which is a disadvantage for students with a backlog. Some companies give preference to students without a backlog; in such cases, you won’t be able to attend the interviews. But many giant recruiters are looking for the talent and skills of the candidate, not the mark list. Try to score a minimum of 60% in your academics, which is the basic eligibility requirement to appear for placement. So do not worry about your backlog and strive hard to clear it in the third semester itself.

Which is a better college for pursuing CSE: Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology or Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College?

Prerona Datta Posted On : February 2nd, 2024

MAKAUT in house campus has higher opening and closing ranks as compared to JGEC. This makes it clear that students usually prefer MAKAUT CSE. But this does not mean that one institute is better than the other. JGEC is an autonomous college, but it is located outside the city limits.

Having studied CSE at JGEC, I am listing down some advantages of our department-

  1. The CS faculty has strong communication with their students, and they know the strengths and weaknesses of each one of them.
  2. The students get good internship opportunities, and teachers offer ample guidance for publishing their research papers.
  3. JGEC has a better campus life as compared to MAKAUT. The college environment is quite healthy.

Ultimately, the choice is yours. Select the college that best suits your requirements.

How can I score a perfect 10 at Makaut in the 2nd semester?

PS
Pradipta Sinha Posted On : July 7th, 2023
Studied at Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University Of Technology (MAKAUT)

You need to strive very hard to score a perfect 10 in the second semester. Strong determination and dedication are the keys to success. Covering each and every topic given in the syllabus, and self-study is the best tool. Stay away from distractions and reduce your leisure time. You can also refer to the MAKAUT organizer for the second semester to follow the question pattern. Keep a timetable and a consistent study routine to score high marks.

What are the things you receive (and are needed) after graduating from MAKAUT/WBUT (like migration, transfer, college leaving certificate) from the college and university?

PS

Studied at Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University Of Technology (MAKAUT)

My cousin recently completed her graduation from MAKAUT and received the final semester grade card and degree certificate issued by MAKAUT from the college administration. 

The degree certificate denotes the completion of a course and is actually a course completion certificate. MAKAUT does not issue any leaving certificate although you may get one on request. The migration certificate is issued to students who get enrolled for higher studies in any other university. There is a separate procedure to obscure the migration certificate for which you will have to make a request for its prescribed application form along with the required documents.

How does one fail in the MAKAUT practical exam?

KR
Kritika Roy Posted On : June 26th, 2023
studied at Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University Of Technology

The only way you can fail the MAKAUT practical exam is if you fail to appear on the exam. Some MAKAUT colleges have strict policies regarding practicals prohibiting students from even taking their mobile phones inside the laboratory. You will not be allowed to talk to your mates during the practicals. Such colleges having strict rules might even fail the students who are not able to do the practical alone and perform poorly.

However, in most cases, it's almost impossible to fail the MAKAUT practical exam unless you have a strong reason to do so.
