The Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology (IIEST), Shibpur, formerly known as Bengal Engineering and Science University, is a premier technical institute in India that offers undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programs in various engineering and science fields. The first year of the Mechanical Engineering program at IIEST, Shibpur, is a common curriculum for all engineering streams. 

Here are the subjects taught in the first year of the Mechanical Engineering program at IIEST, Shibpur:

1. Engineering Mathematics-I: This subject covers topics such as calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, and complex numbers.
2. Engineering Physics-I: This subject covers the fundamental concepts of classical mechanics, thermodynamics, and waves.
3. Engineering Chemistry-I: This subject covers the principles of physical and inorganic chemistry, including topics such as stoichiometry, chemical equilibrium, and acid-base reactions.
4. Computer Programming: This subject introduces students to the basics of computer programming using a programming language such as C or Java.
5. Engineering Graphics: This subject covers the principles of engineering drawing, including projection methods, dimensioning, and tolerancing.
6. Basic Electrical and Electronics Engineering: This subject covers the basic concepts of electrical circuits, including DC and AC circuits, electromagnetic fields, and electronic devices.
7. Engineering Mechanics: This subject covers the principles of statics and dynamics, including the laws of motion, equilibrium, and the analysis of structures.

Most of the faculty members at Navrachana University are alumni from IITs and it is worth it to pursue Mechanical engineering. This university is a good place if you want to prepare for the GATE examinations. It follows the exact syllabus for GATE and engineering services.

The pattern of teaching at Navrachana University is different from that of Gujarat Technological University (GTU). You will be asked questions in any pattern in the examination. You will not be asked to follow any standard books but a lot of reference books instead.

Following is the pattern of examination followed by Navrachana University:

• 2 quizzes - 15 marks each
• 1 mid-semester exam - 30 marks
• 1 end semester exam - 40 marks

The mid-semester and quizzes are considered like internal assessments in which scoring a minimum of 18 marks are mandatory to be eligible for the end semester exam. Scoring a minimum of 12 marks is mandatory in the end-semester exam. If you fail to obtain the minimum marks, you will have to appear for the exams again.

A minimum attendance of 80% is mandatory otherwise you will not be allowed to appear for the exams. Do not bunk the lectures as they are very informative and you will enjoy every bit of it. However, the environment at the campus is chill and no one will force you to attend the classes.

Yes, CGC Landran is a good choice but there is no other college to compare with.

• CGC Landran is a college that focuses mainly on the computer science branch rather than the mechanical branch.
• As a college, in terms of placement and campus life, CGC is a perfect choice.
• The only disadvantage found in the college is the hostel’s food that does not taste good.

Lastly, it depends upon the student’s interest and choice to opt for CGC Landran.

Yes, it can be a good option for your career if you opt for ME from NIET. There would be no regrets in the future if you sincerely want to join the college for studies and growth in your career. My brother graduated from the same college in the year 2017 from the ME branch, so I might be able to help you with the question.

• NIET is not a bad option for a course like ME.
• Although there are not many extracurricular events that get scheduled in NIET like fests or DJ nights for students, it is still good for studies and placement purposes.
• Many reputed companies visit NIET for recruitment drives.

To provide you with a clearer picture and scenario, it does not matter which college you opt for because your skills will ultimately speak for you. Companies tend to hire freshers from many institutes altogether.

According to the current status of different engineering branches, Chemical Engineering at PDPU is preferred due to a number of reasons stated below.

The following table compares certain aspects of the departments stated in PDPU.

Placements: (Winning Department- Chemical Engineering)

• Chemical Engineering in PDPU has a much better placement rate and a higher maximum salary and average salary offered than Mechanical Engineering.
• Various companies recruit from Chemical Engineering, varying from Oil, Gas, and even Management Consultancy. NOCIL, Nayara Oil, Coromandal Fertilizer, Reliance, Protiviti Abudhabi, Honeywell UOP, Nirma, and many other MNCs recruit students from the Chemical Engineering branch at PDPU.
• Due to the lesser number of students in the Chemical branch than in the Mechanical branch at the institute, the competition for placements is quite less in Chemical.

Curriculum and Faculty:

• The course syllabus and subjects in Chemical are easier as compared to Mechanical, in matters of lab and theory papers. You need to study fewer numbers of subjects in Chemical Engineering.
• Faculties in the Chemical Engineering department are better and can be approached easily in need of curriculum-related or research-based problems.

Opportunities:

• GATE aspirants have a lesser struggle in Chemical Engineering as the overall competition pan India is less as compared to the same in Mechanical.
• Even at low GRE scores, graduates get the opportunity for higher studies at better colleges abroad for Chemical Engineering, than in Mechanical Engineering.
• PDPU Chemical Engineering department has received a lot of project grants from DST and research grants from PDPU ORSP to individual students.

Therefore, for an overall outcome, the Chemical Engineering department is considered to be a much better option in almost every aspect than Mechanical Engineering in PDPU.
