What is it like to do chemical science and technology at IIT-Guwahati?

RD
Rithi Dasgupta Posted On : May 4th, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Guwahati (IIITG)

Chemical Science and Technology is a great choice for those who have a genuine interest in the subject of Chemistry. 

  • It comprises inorganic, organic, and other aspects.
  • It covers aspects of drug design, medicinal chemistry, material science, environmental science, and even molecular biology. 
  • It is a research-oriented discipline
  • It's a contemporary of Engineering Physics
  • Its syllabus covers topics like nano-chemistry and nano-technology which is the next big thing in the engineering sector 

Prospects

  • The prospects of CST are not at or with that of Chemical Engineering unless you are going to opt for non-core jobs.

Chemical Engineering, on the other hand, is a blend of a profusion of physical chemistry along with a mess of physics, math, and many other things. It entails the processes that help maximize efficiency, increase profit, and focus on the best possible way for the production of any product in any industry.

Prospects

  • The prospects of Chemical Engineering are better than CST and its students receive better packages.

Ultimately, it’s all about if you are going for core or non-core jobs. Either way, Chemical Engineering is a better option than CST unless you have a serious inclination toward Chemistry.

How is placement for a B.Tech from VEL Tech University?

HJ
Harsh Jain Posted On : November 15th, 2022
ECE from NSIT(second year)

Overall, the college is satisfactory and offers good value for money. Approximately 60% of B.Tech students at VEL Tech University are placed each year. The highest package in college is 7.5 LPA, the average package is 3.5 LPA, and the lowest package is 2.4 LPA. Web development has become a popular career path not only for computer science students but also for people with non-technical backgrounds.

Most online hiring portals provide training, but it is useless if you are unable to demonstrate your development to potential hiring companies through projects under mentors. This is where edWisor comes in to assist you in developing technical knowledge through projects and later assisting you in the hiring process for companies in your chosen field.

How is JK Institute of Applied Physics and Technology, Allahabad University for a B.Tech?

JH
Jyoti Halder Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
B.Tech ( CSE ) from University of Allahabad (2018)

My friend is a student who will graduate from this college this year. To begin with, everything positive about this college is no longer true as per what my friend experienced. Anyone who is currently enrolled in this college is well aware of this. So, whatever excellence you've read, know that it's now gone.

  • In terms of experience, this college is the most unique you'll come across, as it houses a political science department that essentially symbolizes the current Indian administration. 
  • You won't learn anything from the teachers here, so you're free to learn whatever you choose. 
  • There are no placement facilities, no possibilities to go outside, and no administrative support. 
  • Every student who has ever accomplished anything here has done solely due to his or her merit. 
  • If you have secured a rank for this college, you can probably go to a decent college instead, so please do that. 
  • Otherwise, you will surely regret your decisions in the future.
  • Also, they have a dreadful year-back system; My friend has seen so many students' lives get messed up and squandered in this college as a result of this system. 
  • If you fail here, you're doomed for the rest of the course you have enrolled in. 

You will discover how awful things can get because every vice and illness is present at this college, and this will help you socially and politically. Because there are no lessons to worry about, you can prepare for whatever you choose after you have joined one of the courses at this college.

Which is better between IIT Patna and Jadavpur University for an equivalent branch?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : June 22nd, 2023

I have seen many students prefer JU to new IITs because of the experience and legacy it holds in contrast to recently established IITs. None of these students regret their decision of choosing JU over IIT. 

JU has the upper hand in terms of both placements and the quality of research work here. In fact, top NITs, BITS, JU, DTU, NSIT, IIITs, and such institutes are all better options than most of the newer IITs. These institutes have good credibility owing to their strong alumni network thus providing better opportunities. Those who prefer to stay on the safe side give more preference to these institutes than newer IITs.

The new IITs are expected to reach heights in the future and only then will you be able to benefit from their IIT tag. As of now, they lack credibility and opportunities. 

Ultimately, it’s your call to make because you can even avail the best opportunities through minimal resources.

Is it wise to leave IIT Delhi for CSE in IIIT Hyderabad?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 3rd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

I am assuming that you got CSE at IIT Delhi. As per my research, for CSE, IIIT Hyderabad is at par with the top 5 IITs in this field (Madras, Delhi, Bombay, Kanpur, and Kharagpur). According to the three possibilities listed below, choose the right college for your B.Tech CSE-

  • You are passionate about CSE and care in the least for brand name and course fee- In this case, choose IIIT Hyderabad. Its coding culture is one of the best in India and is praised by even the IITians. The results of ACM-ICPC and GSoC selections from IIIT Hyderabad are a proof of the same.
  • You are not as passionate about CSE, and course fee and brand name are more important for you- In this case, choose one among the top 5 IITs because they have a smaller course fee for CSE and carry the IIT tag.
  • You love CSE but are also worried about the fee and brand name- In this case too, I would suggest you choose one among the top 5 IITs, not because of quality education, placements and research opportunities, all of which you will also get at IIIT H, but for the IIT tag.

As far as CSE placements are concerned, they are as good at IIIT H, as any IIT. At IIIT H, you are sure to get placed in a tech profile. A good number of tech companies visit the IIIT H campus for placements, at par with the top IITs.

Thus, based on your personal preference you can choose between IIT Delhi and IIIT Hyderabad for your CSE.

Can I get a department change from a BS course to a B.Tech course in IIT Kanpur?

AT
Ayushi Tiwari Posted On : April 25th, 2023
IIT Kanpur (2019)

Yes, you can get a department change from a BS course to a BTech course at IIT Kanpur. The 2 most important things to consider during branch change are

  • Your CPI and the CPI of those intending for branch change in the same branch you are planning to get shifted to.
  • The availability of seats in the branch you want to get shifted to.

There is an additional criterion that comes to play rarely but one should be aware of it. This is

because Students are not allowed branch change if the strength in their parent department falls below a particular number (usually 55%).

Let me explain this to you with an example. If a student wants to change their branch from Earth Sciences to Physics and fulfills all criteria; the CPI and availability of seats in Physics yet, if the strength of Earth Sciences falls below 55% his branch change application will be rejected.

So these are some important points to consider before applying for branch change.

Which college is better for CS, IIT Kanpur or IIIT Hyderabad?

A
Admin Posted On : June 25th, 2024

IIT Kanpur is well-known for its cutting-edge research, vibrant coding culture, and successful placements. Students rush to it because of its coding culture, which is sometimes compared to that of IIT Bombay.

I will recommend you go for IIT Kanpur. Here are a few reasons that justify my opinion:-

  • The IIT tag is more valuable than the IIIT brand name, and most employers prefer IIT graduates over students from other engineering universities. 
  • You'll have two excellent department buildings with excellent infrastructure.
  • With so many assignments and course projects under your belt, you'd have a huge list of project accomplishments.
  • You would have some fantastic lecturers and courses.
  • IIT Kanpur has an NIRF ranking of 4th, with IIIT Hyderabad at 55th.
  • More than 250 companies like Plutus Research, Kivi Capital, and NVIDIA FVE visited IIT Kanpur campus in 2023.
