How is production engineering at NIT Agartala?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 18th, 2023

My uncle is an alumnus of NIT Agartala Production Engineering and never once regretted choosing the branch. While most of the students were after branches like Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Computer Science, etc. 

He chose the least preferred, Production Engineering. He claimed that if you want to go for higher studies or secure jobs through GATE then the branch doesn’t really matter. Moreover, most campus jobs are from IT companies so the branch does not matter but your skills do. If you have already chosen Production Engineering, then wait patiently because the results will be great.

From my uncle's batch, many students moved on to pursue successful careers. A few of them have been listed below

  • Lakshmi Soren joined NTPC on campus
  • Dipankar Narah joined BHEL through GATE
  • Prasenjit Chanda joined Tata Steel after post-graduating from IIT Roorkee
  • Rashmi Dhar joined Tata Auto Comp System on Campus
  • Ratul Bhaduri and Kashyap joined Tata Motors 

Additionally, many others joined IT industries like Virtusa, Polaris, Capgemini, and Cognizant while some joined as professors in different universities after pursuing Mtech or PhD from good universities.

So the conclusion is, that there are a plethora of opportunities and options you are exposed to even in the Production Engineering branch of NIT Agartala.

Should I choose production and industrial engineering at NIT Kurukshetra and then try to change branch during internal sliding?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

I will not recommend you choose NIT Kurukshetra Production and Industrial Engineering because you will need a good rank for it and you can opt for CS at better colleges with that rank. Moreover, joining a college in the hope of solely upgrading your branch isn't a wise decision. The branch change procedure is more challenging than it seems. For branches like CS, you need a very high CGPA around 9.6+ which will be very tiring. Even after that, there isn't a guarantee for branch change as other factors like availability of seats and the demand of the branch are considered. You might get Mechanical with a lower CGPA around 9 though. I know a friend who went for Production and Industrial Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra and then changed his branch into mechanical engineering by securing a pointer of 9.0.

The point is this is a risky option and you cannot bet your 4 years on this. If you are good at dealing with failures and want to come out of your comfort zone to challenge yourself, then consider joining the branch and working for branch change. But if you feel you won't be able to handle the consequences then look for other options because the branch of Production and Industrial Engineering isn't very easy.

The placement support at NIT Calicut in Production Engineering is not up to par. Core companies like Tata Motors, NRF, etc. do not encourage students from Production Engineering to sit for the placement. They are not considered equivalent to mechanical engineering by the major recruiters.

Should I opt for Civil Engineering in IIEST Shibpur or Production Engineering at Jadavpur University?

AM
Ahana Malhotra Posted On : September 17th, 2020
Studies at Jadavpur University (2024)

First of all, it is important to note that Civil Engineering and Production Engineering are not the same things. Students looking to pursue courses in any of these fields are required to do thorough research before choosing and applying to a university.

Ranking:

  • IIEST Shibpur and Jadavpur University are both excellent colleges for education. Jadavpur University is one of the top graded A-tier universities in India however, IIEST holds more brand value because of its recent popularity and placements.
  • Jadavpur University has been ranked at 12 out of 200 universities in India by NIRF ranking and the 2nd best university in Kolkata. IIEST Shibpur has been ranked at 43rd place in the same ranking.

Departments:

  • The Civil engineering department is one of the oldest departments at IIEST university and has one of the highest numbers of placements. The production engineering department at JU is relatively new but it has the benefit of having experienced and up to date professors.

Admission Cut-off:

Both universities accept JEE scores for admission. IIEST Shibpur B.Tech in Civil Engineering requires a rank around 2506-27001 whereas JU B.tech in production engineering requires a rank of 315-420.

Placements:

  • The placements offered at Jadavpur University are better for the reason that it has a better nationwide ranking and engages in campus recruitment programs. It had recently achieved a record of 84% placements in May 2020.
  • IIEST civil engineering program had 78 students out of which 42 got placed in 2020.It recorded a 57.14% placement percentage.

Thus, it all depends on the student and their JEE ranking if they want to take admission in IIEST Shibpur or Jadavpur University. Again, it also depends on the interest whether they want to pursue Civil Engineering or go towards the production engineering line.

Which one would be better: production in Jadavpur university, power in Jadavpur university, mechanical in Jalpaiguri, or government engineering or mechanical in Kalyani govt. engineering?

MB
Madhurima Banerjee Posted On : October 22nd, 2021
B.E Chemical Engineering, Jadavpur University (2021)

Choose the course that interests you, college is a secondary thing. Here are some of the facts that may help you in choosing the right branch for you.

  • If you want to work in PSUs or Govt. sectors, it’s better to not choose Production Engineering as there are fewer recruiters.
  • Jadavpur is the best college you can get through WBJEE. If you choose Production or Power in JU, you will have good on-campus job opportunities.
  • Production Engineering is a branch of Mechanical Engineering itself. The syllabus will be more or less the same. 
  • Mechanical at Kalyani University will be slightly better than Jalpaiguri. You may not get lucrative job packages at on-campus placement from Kalyani University but in the long run, you will have a much better hold with your Mechanical degree. You can expect well-paid jobs in the future. 

Your future will depend on the branch you are choosing so choose according to your interest. All these Universities will offer you enough opportunities and resources to prosper. It’s up to you to use that well.

GG
Gargi Gupta Posted On : September 1st, 2023
Studied at NIT Jamshedpur

There are several things you should consider while comparing these branches.

During 2023 placements, 97.29% of students were placed in the Civil branch. Metallurgy students received 100% placements while production students received 97.61% placements. 

The salary package stats for these branches are as described below- 

NIT Jamshedpur

Out of the three, Metallurgy has the highest placement percentage.

TATA Steel offers good placements to Metallurgy students of NIT Jamshedpur. Other than them, Vedanta, Jindal Steel, Hindalco, and Tata Metaliks are some other companies that offer placements to Metallurgy students of NIT Jamshedpur.

Metallurgy is a good choice for higher studies. Many students from this branch perform really well in GATE exams.

I recommend you consider joining Metallurgy at NIT Jamshedpur because it offers good future prospects. However, also talk to some seniors from the other branches before making a final decision.
