Which among BIT Mesra and NIT Rourkela is better?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 9th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

One of my friends is a student of BIT Mesra and yet claims that joining NIT Rourkela would have been a better decision. He regrets choosing BIT Mesra because

  • Very adamant and unapproachable administration that does not pay heed to students' complaints.
  • The campus has poor infrastructural facilities and students constantly face issues related to water, electricity, and network 
  • The faculty pool comprises only a handful of qualified professors and most of them are not interested in teaching.
  • The institute has imposed illogical restrictions that affect the quality of campus life largely.
  • The institute charges exorbitantly high fees making it difficult for financially weak students to join.

Overall, I will say BIT Mesra offers a good academic environment but that is it. It lacks a vibrant college life so if you are looking for one, choose NIT Rourkela!

How much will a low grad score affect summer and final placements in NITIE (PGDIM), SJMSOM IIT B, and XLRI BM?

JM
Jyoti Mishra Posted On : June 9th, 2021
Studied PGDBM Marketing & Operations Management, Xavier School of Management (2019)

My cousin is an alumnus of NITIE and has spent two years in the institute as a student. His opinion is based on professional experience and may not be true for summer and final placements at SJMSOM and XLRI.

  • Companies consider students with good grades as an equivalent proxy to dedication at the workplace, and the ability of the students to analyze critically and intensively.
  • The merit required for the consideration is open to question and/or debate. Marks obtained in high school and graduation usually serve as filter criteria for filtering out worthy students from hundreds of them.
  • Experience in work in domain and years or the lack of it and the college you completed your undergraduate degree from matter in a few cases.
  • It is wrong to say that one of these matters will nullify and get you a place in the shortlist for the subsequent selection rounds.

A counter-argument can turn up claiming that the companies do not look at the scores. It is up to the students concerned to follow this notion.

What is it like to be a passout from XLRI, Jamshedpur with a degree in HR? Also, is HRM better than BM in XLRI?

IC
Indrani Chatterjee Posted On : April 17th, 2023
PGDM from Xavier School of Management (2018)

XLRI Jamshedpur is one of the top business schools in India, and its HR program is highly respected in the industry. Graduating from XLRI with an HR degree can open up many opportunities for you in the HR field, including roles in recruitment, training and development, employee relations, and more. The highest international package offered is Rs. 1.1 Crore for the HR domain, and an average package ranging from 19 to 30 LPA with a vast alumni base are the reasons which make the XLRI (HRM) the most sought-after management program in India.

In terms of the difference between HRM and BM (Business Management) at XLRI, both programs have their unique advantages and career paths. HRM is focused on developing skills related to human resource management, while BM provides a broader business education covering different aspects of management.

Ultimately, the choice between HRM and BM at XLRI depends on your personal interests and career goals. Both programs have excellent faculty and resources, and you can be confident in the education you receive at XLRI, no matter which program you choose.

Is IIM Calcutta an "IIM Ahmedabad" rejected college?

AP
Abhilekh Paul Posted On : November 22nd, 2022
Studies at Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (Expected 2023)

I think comparing both IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Calcutta is doing injustice to these colleges. Both the IIMs are excellent at their own level.

If you consider the rankings then IIM Ahmedabad tips the list and IIM Calcutta comes next. But do rankings really matter that much? It might be possible that a certain college is on top of the list but inconvenient for you and a certain college is second in the list and is best suited for you. 

I have seen friends who have rejected offers from IIM Ahmedabad and went for IIM Calcutta because it suited their needs better. 

Some special features of IIM Calcutta that IIM Ahmedabad does not have are:

  • A finance lab with a Bloomberg terminal

  • Top notch finance faculty 

  • CEMS-MiM programme (Masters in Management programme ranked 7th in the world)

So yes IIM Ahmedabad is the best IIM but IIM Calcutta is also not an ordinary one. Choose the one that suits your needs best rather than which ranks the most.

Should I pursue ECE from MSIT or CS from BPIT?

SR
Sukriti Roy Posted On : May 19th, 2021
Studied ECE at MSIT

Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology (MSIT) and Bhagwan Parshuram Institute of Technology (BPIT) both are private engineering colleges in New Delhi affiliated to the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU). There is not much of a difference between them in terms of the syllabus of the branches. 

Here are some of the things that you should know about the two courses. 

Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE): 

  • The prerequisite for doing well in this branch is a strong grasp of mathematics. 
  • Most of the subjects in this branch are logic-based and if your mathematics is good, then you can easily score and get some good grades. 
  • As for placements, core companies almost do not visit any of the two colleges (hardly 1 or 2). However, jobs in the service-based sector are plentiful and you can easily get them on the campus of MSIT with almost no knowledge of ECE.

Computer Science and Engineering (CSE):

  • There is no prerequisite for doing well in CSE at BPIT and you can easily score good grades. 
  • Top companies like Amazon, Commvault also visit the campus along with service-based companies such as TCS, Wipro, etc. 

2021 Placement Statistics:

Parameters 

MSIT

BPIT

Average CTC

4 LPA

3.95 LPA

Highest CTC

13 LPA

10 LPA

Choose a branch according to your strengths and passion. In terms of college, both are almost equal and branches should be the differentiator rather than the college.
