NITIE does not exclusively mention the courses pursued by the alumni from the institution.

Here are some of the notable alumni of NITIE along with their position and company names:

These are just a few names and the list of alumni is endless. 

One of my close friends recently got admission to NITIE Mumbai. In the interview, he was asked mostly about his final year engineering project and his work experience, education, and about his skills. To clear your interview you will have to prepare very hard and will have to practice a lot. Here are a few things you should do for your preparation.

• Introduction: You will be asked to introduce yourself. So prepare a good introduction about yourself where you should cover all the major points you want to highlight. Tell them about your academics, hobbies, extracurricular activities, and also about your personal life. 
• Project: You will be asked about your graduation project. So you should know everything about the project. They will ask about the topic, project objective, your contributions, and what were the achievements. 
• Work Experience: If you have any prior work experience, then they will ask questions about it. There will be questions about your job role, your experience, and your achievements. And if you are a fresher, then prepare 3-4 engineering subjects, as they will ask you questions based on that.
• Current Affairs: Stay updated with current affairs. Read newspapers, magazines and watch the news regularly. This will help you in GD too. 

NITIE has a mock admission process called B-Cube. This will give you an idea about the GD and Interview. 

You can definitely join NITIE as a fresher. You will have ample learning and placement opportunities at NITIE. 

NITIE has placements at par with any other B school in India. NITIE is one of very few B-schools that conduct separate lateral and common placement processes for experienced and fresher. Also, NITIE has a magnificent ROI.

In case your academic record is not good and you have no prior work experience then it’s better to join a job and prepare for next year’s CAT. You can’t improve your academics but this way, you can improve your overall profile. 

So, choose the option that suits you best. 

PGDIM and PGDISEM are both courses that one can apply for with a CAT score at NITIE. Here are some differences listed according to some of my friends studying there.

• PGDISEM is a specialized course majoring in industrial safety, sustainability, and the environment. 
• Whereas PGDIM is a general management course with a focus on operations.
• PGDIM is a general management course similar to IIMs. 
• PGDISEM on the other hand caters to a niche segment of students who are highly interested in industrial safety and sustainability of corporate companies.
• Both the courses have a few common subjects and subjects which cater to their specific industries in-depth as well.
• The faculty teaching any of the courses in NITIE are highly experienced.
• From PGDIM, you will majorly get into Operations, IT, Consulting roles, whereas PGDISEM will get you into EHS, Safety, Sustainability, or Environment profiles.
• The placements for both the courses are in different fields. Other than that, the course structure for both courses is similar.

Selecting the right course depending on your interest and preferences is most important. So choose wisely as this will shape your career ahead.

Both PGDIE and PGDIM are very good courses for a mechanical engineer, but the syllabus for both these courses is different. 

PGDIE

1. It is a flagship course of NITIE which is more focused on industrial engineering. To get admission to this course, you have to clear the GATE exam.
2. As a fresher, you can make up with most of the students in your branch but you might not be able to contribute as much as the students who have significant experience, especially in class discussions and group activities. 
3. But there won't be many problems during placements as there are many companies who are looking for fresh candidates to join their team, especially in the FMCG sector. 

PGDIM

1. It is a management course that is equivalent to an MBA course, and to get admission in this course, you have to clear the CAT exam.
2. As a fresher, if you take admission in this course, you would probably be in the minority as most of the students would have some kind of work experience. 
3. There will be certain projects which would need some kind of experience and here your other batch mates can be a step ahead of you. 
4. You will have to do a lot of reading and communicating with all your batch mates, professors to learn how a business works. 

Both the courses are very different from each other and now it depends on you in which field you are interested in. If you want to pursue a management course then go for PGDIM or if you want to be in the field of engineering, then you can choose PGDIE. 

If you are asking from a technical point of view, you will not face any issues for doing PGDIM from NITIE once you have completed your M.Tech.

But, in the future, you might be asked during an interview as to why you have pursued a management degree after completing your master’s in a core field. Be prepared to give a convincing answer. 

If you are thinking of joining the industry and then doing a management degree makes sense. It would definitely help you scale up your current job prospects. But, if you are pursuing this degree without any industry experience, it might come off as a little haphazard, like you are jumping from one degree to another. This might confuse your recruiter a little if your final goal is to bag placement in a decent company. 

You can go ahead but think of a good reason as to why you want to pursue this to ensure that you get placed in your future and don’t face any problems.

I think I can give you an idea about the opportunities that you will receive at NITIE since a have a few friends who graduated from the institute.
