IGNOU: Has anyone over here done a MAPC master's in psychology or a Ph.D. in psychology via distance learning?

RY
Raj Yadav Posted On : October 18th, 2022
Studied Psychology at IGNOU

It is a well-planned course that includes a required internship, research project, and term-end examinations (TEE). According to some practicing psychologists, the study material appears to be on par with regular university courses.

The main difference is that you can complete the course over a 5-year period, with exams held twice a year. As a result, you can write exams for 2-3 subjects each term and finish the course while working full-time.

IGNOU has two points of contact for you:

  • SC Study Centre: This is where lectures and practicals will be held, assignments must be submitted, and course-related questions will be answered. There are two in Mumbai: Hansraj College in Khar and Seva Sadan in Ulhasnagar.

  • Regional Centre RC: This is your administrative point for receiving books, issuing ID cards, making changes to exam centers, and so on. This is the IGNOU's general office in Mulund West, Mumbai, for all courses.

IGNOU PROBLEMS

The RC is sometimes unresponsive, and with a low student-to-administrative representative ratio (IGNOU has no upper limit on the number of students it can admit), it is difficult to get questions answered. To receive a response, students must send emails in bulk.

IGNOU (or RC) appoints teachers to give IGNOU lectures in addition to their regular teaching duties.

IGNOU urgently needs to address these concerns in order to maintain and improve students' trust in the system.

Is MAMC better than KGMU?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 26th, 2023

Both MAMC and KGMU are top medical colleges in India. However, MAMC has a slight location advantage over KGMU and is also known to have a better environment for medical education.

Here is a brief comparison of these colleges based on common aspects

  • Infrastructure : KGMU has a much better infrastructure than MAMC with around 4500 beds and 80 departments with it's own cancer institute whereas MAMC has a bed capacity of 2800. Despite being a government college, KGMU is well-maintained and clean.
  • Campus : KGMU has an exceptionally beautiful campus and the MAMC campus cannot even be compared to it. 
  • Faculty : Although both colleges are known to have excellent professors, MAMC does give a slight edge to KGMU in this aspect. It has some very renowned faculties of India second only to the faculty in AIIMS.
  • Location : Located in the capital city, MAMC is the first choice of NEET toppers. KGMU is situated in Lucknow which has no such location advantage although some UP students may prefer it over MAMC. 
  • Ranking : The MAMC Medical ranking by NIRF is 32 out of 50 colleges in India in 2023 while that of KGMU is 12 out of 50 in India in 2023.

So, KGMU is a good option if you dont make it to good medical colleges in Delhi.

Is studying ECE at NIT Trichy better than studying ECE at CEG?

AS
Anuraag Sharma Posted On : September 9th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

I have a few friends from both NIT Trichy and CEG and here is what I gathered from my conversations with them. 

  • In terms of ranking, NIT Trichy is placed higher than CEG. This is because NIT admits students based on JEE Mains ranking and CEG admits students based on board marks.
  • In terms of placements, NIT Trichy would be way ahead of CEG. The college enjoys a better reputation and big firms come for placements.
  • For ECE, then recruiting companies visiting the on-campus placements at NIT Trichy are Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, SanDisk, Nvidia, etc. The average CTC offered is 6 LPA. 
  • You can also go for higher education if you have a good GPA and great projects.
  • The faculty team is overall good. A few of them are extremely knowledgeable and conduct high-quality research. In terms of facilities, NIT Trichy has an edge over CEG. 
  • Since CEG is in Chennai, there are other sources of enjoyment but NIT Trichy is 20 km away from Trichy.

Overall, NIT Trichy will be a better choice than CEG.

Which college should I choose for CSE, IET Lucknow or JSS Noida? The fees are not an issue. Focus on environment, campus, hostel and what is taught in CSE.

AA
Aishikh Arora Posted On : August 5th, 2021
Studies CSE at JSS Noida, (2018)

I can give you some information on both institutes since I have friends from both IET Lucknow and JSS Noida. Based on the reviews that I got from my friends I will say choosing JSS Noida will be better. It has a locational advantage, which plays a crucial role.

  • The curriculum of JSS Noida is in accordance with the current industry trends. In the first two semesters, you will learn the same courses as any other engineering institutes in India. You can get the detailed syllabus from the website.
  • JSS has a good reputation in the industry. Alumni of the institute are working on Google, Microsoft, etc. Many reputed companies visit the campus for the placement drive including IBM, Wipro, TCS, Amazon, etc.

For IET, the location is an issue. The faculty and curriculum are not that great either. So, I will suggest you choose JSS Noida.

Which is better: chemical engineering at NIT Trichy or computer science at NIT Durgapur?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 7th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

It's difficult to determine which is better chemical engineering at NIT Trichy or computer science at NIT Durgapur. In fact, it's illogical to compare two diverse fields and choose one between them. Both are completely different in the knowledge, scope, and job opportunities they offer. Clarity of goals is very important for the right choice. It’s better to analyze your inclinations first and put the choice of the institute at the back. Imagine your life after 10 years and picture what you would like yourself to be doing

In general, NIT Trichy is the best NIT. So if you have an interest in chemical engineering, and want to pursue a PG or research, then choose NIT Trichy. However, bear in mind that the placements of this branch aren’t very promising so it won’t be a very good choice if you are planning to work right after graduation. If you want a stable job with a corporate lifestyle, then choose NIT Durgapur CSE. You can also pursue an MS or MBA post-graduation.

Ultimately the choice depends on your career prospects!
