Is studying mechanical engineering at IGIT, Sarang good?
One of my friends graduated from IGIT this year. Here are a few things that I got to know about the Mechanical branch at IGIT.
Placements:
According to the statistics the placement sector is down in almost all colleges of Odisha. Seeing on the placement statistics of past years hardly a core company came for placement in IGIT.
- Companies like Vedanta, Jindal, and Bhushan did come for the core sector but the probability of students getting selected is not up to the mark.
- Most mechanical engineers join TCS or Tech Mahindra in IT. Very few of the students get placed in core companies like Vedanta, Jindal, or Bhushan.
This same situation can be seen in colleges like VSSUT and CET too. But they arrange some off-campus for mechanical students. Going in other campus placement is good in CET followed by VSSUT than IGIT. But that doesn’t make a big difference. Placement is almost the same in these colleges for core companies.
About Mechanical Branch:
The mechanical branch is one of the most strict branches of the institute.
- It has well-equipped labs or workshops and this is something mechanical engineers brag about.
- IGIT has more reputed and respected professors in mechanical engineering as compared to other colleges.
The quality of education is average.
It will be better if you opt for CET followed by VSSUT and then IGIT. CET/VSSUT does call mass recruiters as compared to IGIT. IT jobs play the role of saviors since the number of core jobs is quite less. and are not likely to get a boost in near future.
Is branch change easy if I want CSE at NIT Rourkela?
NIT Rourkela started branch change facility from academic year 2017-2018. For a branch change, your first year CGPA and seat availability in the desired course will be considered. However, to answer you precisely, it is not easy to get a branch change, that too into CSE. Top scorers at NIT Rourkela are able to achieve this feat.
The main obstacle is that students acquire a laid back attitude after getting an admission into an NIT or IIT. Even if you work 1/10th as hard as you did during your JEE preparation, you will get a good CGPA and your chances for a branch change will be high. For this, you will have to work hard instead of blaming the faculty, syllabus or hectic schedule.
It is quite difficult to upgrade to CSE at NIT Rourkela. However, if you work really hard and get lucky enough that the department has vacant seats, you might get into CSE after your first year.
What should I choose: IIT Roorkee metallurgy or NIT Warangal/Trichy CSE?
IIT Roorkee, NIT Trichy, and NIT Warangal are well-established institutes in India. The scope of metallurgy is comparatively lower than that of CSE. IIT Roorkee mainly concentrates on textual learning and does not give the students exposure to practical learning. They are using the practice of mugging up the lessons without having a clear understanding of the topic. The placement is very poor here; the students from the metallurgy department usually end up in data analytics and coding.
So CSE at NIT Warangal and Trichy would be a better choice.
Which is better: chemical engineering in BITS Pilani or mechanical engineering in PEC Chandigarh?
Choose what interests you. If you are interested in Chemical Engineering, BITS Pilani is a great option. It offers decent academics and exposure. Core Chemical companies and oil companies recruit from the institute. Schlumberger, ONGC, Reliance, etc. are among the major recruiters for the branch. BITS Pilani placement highlights show the average CTC to be around INR 12 LPA for Chemical Engineering.
But if you are interested in Mechanical Engineering, you should choose PEC Chandigarh.
Which one should I prefer: IIIT Bangalore ECE, IIIT Lucknow CSAI or IIIT Gwalior CSE?
CS and EC are very different branches. You need to decide which branch interests you more.
EC is about electronics and how the different electrical components communicate with one another. It involves a lot of Physics. It only involves a little programming. CS, on the other hand, is all about programming. It mainly uses logic and math.
If you are interested in programming, CSAI from IIIT Lucknow is the better choice. AI/ML is in huge demand in the industry as most things will be automated in the future. Placements and coding culture are top-notch at all these colleges. Students from IIIT Lucknow and IIIT Bangalore perform well in competitions like ACM ICPC.
All these colleges are good. You should make your choice based on your field of interest.
Which is better IIEST Shibpur mining or NIT Jamshedpur metallurgy?
NIT Jamshedpur has an established brand name in the country. Students are tagged with “NITians”. This tag is beneficial for future training, internships, on or off-campus placements, and even in pursuing a management degree afterward.
Professors & Faculty of NIT Jamshedpur:
- The professors impart decent knowledge to the students about their expertise core subjects. So, scoring marks is not a problem here.
- Some of the professors are adopting methods to revise the significant topics again and again. It decreases the workload of students.
- They can easily focus the first two years on pointing out their areas of interest and later two years in achieving their targets for their desired specialization.
Placement Statistics of NIT Jamshedpur:
- As per the past few years of placements, there are core companies that visit the campus. They are TATA Steel, Vedanta, Hindalco, TATA Power, JSW, Usha Martin, etc.
- In the metallurgy department, TATA Steel took only one candidate.
- If students lack interest in this department then they can opt for off-campus placements too or else prepare for further studies.
Winning Institute:
As per the above perks, NIT Jamshedpur can be concluded better between both the listed institutes.
What should I choose between IIT rank 1300-1500 (predicted rank) , IIIT Hyderabad CSE and BITS Pilani (Score - 369)?
Your rank is pretty good and you are likely to get both, IIIT Hyderabad CSE and BITS Pilani. However, had I been in your place, I would have chosen IIIT Hyderabad. There are a number of reasons that support my choice.
- IIIT Hyderabad is a CS-oriented institute so follows a well-structured and CS-tailored curriculum. The curriculum is flexible and concepts are delivered in a dynamic way through classes, tutorials, labs, and assignments.
- IIIT Hyderabad conducts rigorous classroom sessions that ensure maximum student involvement. The concepts are not just delivered but taught thoroughly. Students have explained the logic behind everything.
- The lab sessions are usually taught by TAs who guide you and explain the practical concepts thoroughly. They help you overcome the major and minor problems in coding.
- Students are given very challenging problems in tutorials that help them improve drastically.
- The assignments are set excellently by the professors who want to keep the students one step ahead of the classes and prepare them for the exams. The assignments are discussed during tutorials to ensure everyone completes them without any problem.
In all, IIIT Hyderabad gives you a sense of freedom to explore yourself and your surroundings better.
How are EEE and ECE trades at NIT Jamshedpur?
What your preference is and what interests you, these two are very important at making the right choice.
If any of the two branches is of your preference and interest, then you should go for it.
If you have no such preferences and interests and you are only looking at the job prospects after graduating, then I would suggest you consider the following things:
- Government and Public Sector: These sectors provide more jobs in the electrical field. If you secure a decent GATE score, you will get a lot of interview opportunities in the PSUs. Indian Engineering Services is also an option that has more job opportunities in the electrical branch than the electronic branch. There are very limited opportunities for electronics in the public sector.
- Private Sector: It is the opposite here. The electronics sector is much ahead in the private sector. You will find a lot of companies providing good salary packages in electronics than electrical. However, the job is not core electronics but software profile.
- Faculty: The faculty at NIT Jamshedpur is better in the electrical branch than the electronic branch.
- Laboratories: Electrical branch has better labs than the electronic branch.
- Academic Curriculum: Electrical branch has a lot more pressure than the electronic branch. A few senior faculty members of the electrical branch will make you cry while in the electronic branch, you can secure good marks even by studying less.
All these are relevant factors to keep in mind before making a choice. Now, the choice is yours.
How about B.Tech ceramic engineering in NIT Rourkela?
Ceramic Engineering is a good branch. My brother is a Ceramic Engineer and an alumnus of NIT Rourkela.
The faculty for Ceramic at NIT Rourkela is good. Since the number of students in Ceramic is comparatively small, the teachers are able to pay attention to each and every one of them. The assignment load is quite small and the seniors of Ceramic are very helpful.
As far as placements are concerned, students who work hard during the four years of their B.Tech get placement offers from core companies like Vedanta, Tata, etc. with a good package of more than 9-10 LPA. This is the best branch for MBA aspirants.
Thus, Ceramic Engineering from NIT Rourkela is a good choice. It is the best branch for those who wish to make the most of their Engineering life.
