PGDM in Finance, Institute of Management Technology, Ghaziabad

Keep your answer crisp. Draft your answer in a way that highlights the applicability part. If you have work experience, write what kind of work experience you have and the key deliverables. Mention your roles and responsibilities. If you are a fresher, mention academic achievements, particular subject knowledge or General Awareness especially corporate ones like the latest disruptive technologies, mergers acquisitions, etc. 

For extra-curricular activities, you can mention any national-level achievements or participation. If you don’t have any national-level achievements to talk about, you can talk about undergraduate extracurriculars.

This is not only applicable to IMT Ghaziabad CT-GE-PI. It is applicable to all B-Schools applications. Keep it precise and talk about what you have done and can produce evidence of.

A
Admin Posted On : May 4th, 2024

I completed BTech CSE from LPU back in 2016. You might say that LPU has changed since then, but I am still in touch with my juniors and here is my experience:

  • Placements: More than 550+ MNCs and startups visit the LPU campus for placement. In recent news, Yasir M., student of LPU, grabbed an offer of INR 3 crore in Germany. The highest CTC offered for the engineering programs at LPU is INR 42 LPA.
  • Scholarships: People might think LPU is pricey since it is a private colleges, but LPU provides scholarships to bright students with good academic records, good track record in sports, or extracurricular activities. LPU also helps students in the education loan facility.
  • Research: In terms of research, Stanford University has ranked almost 13 LPU faculty members amongst the top 2% of scientists in the world. 
  • Faculty: The faculty members are from top institutes like IITs, NITs, IIMs, and top-ranked universities globally.

Why do students leave BHU?

AS
Amita Santra Posted On : November 15th, 2022
Economics from Banaras Hindu University (Graduated 2018)

Although BHU has the best faculty and management, many students tend to leave BHU after a few days. They feel isolated and homesick. Also, the teachers have a lot of political influence. The administration does not let you take a stand for yourself. A lot of inter students riots take place here.

Also, BHU has a sustaining hierarchy and preferential treatment that seeps down to the education part as well. Ex-students become professors without external exposure. So they bring much lesser value in terms of ethics, fair marking, and admission system.

I think these are some minor reasons why students keep leaving BHU after admission.

studied at Indian Statistical Institute

The career prospect of doing M.Tech in Quality Reliability and Operations Research from ISI Kolkata can be divided into two parts, i.e. jobs and placements. You don’t need to worry about job prospects, you will get placement offers as a Business analyst or Data scientist with a similar CTC of top b-school graduates. According to the 2021 ISI Kolkata placement highlight, the average CTC offered was INR 19 LPA. 

Doing Ph.D. or higher studies can be difficult, especially if you are planning on going overseas. It’s better if you choose the Industrial Engineering domain. It will aline with QROR. If you are interested in Data Science or Machine Learning domain, you can consider doing some projects. ISI offers ample opportunities for such projects.

How hectic is life in Mtech structural engineering at IIT Madras?

Yashveer Singh Posted On : March 1st, 2022

M.Tech structural engineering at IIT Madras is both challenging and rewarding. IITM is a prestigious institution, and its tag holds a lot of value both inside and outside of India. 

Time will pass very quickly during this course, and by the end of it, you’ll feel that there’s still a lot more to learn. The environment is quite competitive. If you’ll miss your lectures, it’ll be very hard to understand basic concepts while preparing for exams. 

Some professors are very likable, but you’ll not like the teaching style of many. Added to it is the tremendous workload. You’ll be overwhelmed by the never ending assignments. You won’t be spoon fed by anyone. You’ll get the reference books, syllabi and lecture notes, but you’ll have to study by yourself on a regular basis. 

Work hard by yourself, and show keen interest in learning. The professors will be happy to guide you and work with you, given that you show proper interest. They publish lots of research material every year, and are in constant search of good students to help them. 

Your career will get a positive direction at IIT Madras if you’ll work hard and make the most of your time on campus.

What is your review of K L University?

SB
Sailesh Banerjee Posted On : March 1st, 2022
B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, K L University (2020)

K L University, Vijayawada is an average university at best. The student intake is huge.  But the institute doesn’t have sufficient facilities and resources to support the huge student intake. They advocate strict rules and regulations, which may seem unnecessary at times. The faculty base is not good. But you can meet a few extraordinary professors who are helpful and passionate about teaching. Although K L University advertises 100% placements, it’s not entirely true. Everyone doesn’t get placed. The average CTC offered in placements stands around INR 4.78 LPA.

Lived in Chandigarh, India

First of all, there is no fixed GATE score that makes you eligible to do a Ph.D. at IIT Madras as the selection process comprises a number is criteria with the GATE score being just one of them. The students applying for a PhD program at IIT Madras, go through a rigorous admission process. To become eligible one needs to fulfill the following criteria

How did BITS Goa and Hyderabad develop so quickly?

AK
Aditi Kasyup Posted On : March 1st, 2022
Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (2018)

Naturally, BITS Goa and Hyderabad weren’t planned randomly. There are years of strategic planning behind the establishment of these campuses. 

I learned from one of the faculties of BITS Pilani that the late Mr. K. K Birla wanted to expand BITS campuses way back in 1990s and assigned the task to the administration to find a suitable location for the second campus. During the tech boom of the 90s, IT companies were setting up shops everywhere in cities like Bangalore, Mumbai. They strategically choose Goa as it is between these two locations and well-connected because of its airport. The location also helped them attract faculties from IIT Bombay and IISc Bangalore. Mr. Monahar Parrikar, then CM approved the project quickly, and that’s how it was possible to set up the Goa campus so quickly.

The Hyderabad campus also has a similar story. Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu, the CM of united Andra Pradesh back then, requested BITS to set up a campus in Hyderabad. He provided land for the campus and construction work was quick to follow. When the first batch joined in 20008, the infrastructure was already done.

What are some bitter truths about life at IIT/BITS Pilani?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : June 26th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Here are a few bitter truths about life at BITS Pilani and IITs in general that many are not known to 

  • The faculty no doubt is one of the best but they are more qualified in research work than in teaching.
  • The girl-to-boy ratio at IITs and BITS Pilani is deteriorating rapidly.
  • IIT students stay awake most part of the night and sleep early morning around 5 thus disturbing their sleep cycle tremendously.
  • The average IQ of IIT students is higher than people of the rest of the world yet the output is not particularly high
  • The attendance policy is a major hurdle here and even students with decent marks get detained.
  • The food served in the mess is hardly edible 
  • The highest package rarely reaches the CPA mark and if it does, it's usually an international package where the in-hand salary is much less.

Despite it all, IITs and BITS have excellent placement scenarios because the recruiting companies are well aware that these students will commit to work more than their capacity and thus prefer IITians over other people.

What is salary of Electrical Enginners from NIT Trichy?

SS
Savi Sharma Posted On : July 26th, 2023

NIT Trichy does not release official branch-wise statistics so I contacted my friends there to get an idea of the salary offered to Electrical Engineering students from NIT Trichy. The first friend claimed the placement percentage of the branch to be around 92.4% with the highest salary package offered at around 45 LPA and the average salary package offered in the range of 6.5 LPA-20 LPA. He claimed that the top recruiting companies were Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and DE Shaw.

Another friend offered a similar insight into the placement scenario of Electrical Engineering at NIT Trichy. He claimed the highest package to be 40 LPA whereas the lowest salary package offered to be around 5 LPA, and the average salary package around 10 LPA. He further stated that 60-70% of students were offered internships. 

It’s important to note that Electrical Engineering students are not placed only in the core sector but also in the software, marketing, and digital graphic sector. So ultimately the salary one will be receding depends upon one's capability, skills, and interests.
