How is a dual degree in mechanical engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar in comparison with NIT Surat (SVNIT) mechanical engineering?

SR
Sumit Rana Posted On : March 2nd, 2024
B.Tech in Mechanical from SVNIT

I pursued my B.Tech Mechanical from SVNIT, thus, I can only comment on my college.

The faculty of the mechanical department is top notch. Majority of our teachers are highly driven. It is because of them that mechanical is the most famous branch of our college. Our teachers emphasize practical knowledge over mere theoretical understanding. Many of them have more than 10 years of experience in teaching. The department has enough professors, so very few courses are taken by TAs. The faculty is very helpful for projects and research work.

The curriculum for B.Tech Mechanical is very rich, and you’ll get to choose one elective per semester in the 3rd and 4th year. You can choose courses from other branches as well. You can choose management courses, programming courses, physics related courses, automobile courses, etc. SVNIT is probably the only college that teaches its students topics like Mechatronics, Computational fluid mechanics (CFD), Cryogenics, etc. at the UG level itself. 

Unfortunately, like most other colleges, our practical syllabus and lab equipment needs to be upgraded. The labs do not contain equipment of the latest technology. The workshop contains all conventional and non conventional machines like lathe, shoper, milling, grinding, welding, abrasive jet machine, EDM, 3-D printer, etc.

As far as B.Tech Mechanical at SVNIT is concerned, I would say it is quite a decent option.

Which is better, IIT Hyderabad CSE or IIT Madras EE?

AG
Akhil Gupta Posted On : February 29th, 2024
B.Tech EE from IIT Madras

This question can only have a subjective answer. I have myself done my B.Tech EE from IIT Madras, but I would recommend you consider several factors before arriving at a decision-

Your subject of interest matters a lot, even more than your college. Make sure to select the branch that interests you. Take a good look at the curriculum and course offerings of both these options, and find out which of them aligns with your career/academic goals. Also consider the specialization opportunities offered by each option. 

Look at the research interests and projects undertaken by faculty members of each program. Realize whose interests align with you the most. Getting into research work at UG level will only be beneficial for you. Take a visit to both the institutes or consult some seniors to find out which one offers better infrastructure, campus life and other facilities. 

Personally speaking, I’ve had an excellent experience at the Electrical department of IIT Madras. So, if you don’t have a particular interest in CS, you may very well consider EE at IITM.

Will I regret joining IIT Roorkee for MBA leaving IMT, IMI, TAPMI?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : October 6th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

IIT Roorkee will never be an option that you’ll regret. Here are some reasons why getting an MBA from an IIT like IIT-R is considerably different from getting one from a business school like XIMB or Tapmi.

  • Infrastructure: Modern labs, classrooms, libraries, and other spaces were made available. Both the hostel's amenities and the meals at the mess were excellent. Students utilize bicycles to get to the department, which is around 500 meters from the dormitory.
  • Placements: 90% of the batch was placed. In 2023 the highest package was INR 27.94 LPA and the average package offered was 18.34 LPA. Top recruiters were KPMG India, Bristlecone, Cognizant, ICICI Bank, etc. There are student exchange programmes with some of the top universities around the world which also is an added perk of studying in this university.
  • Faculty: All the professors and assistant professors in the faculty were Ph.D. holders and had good acumen and knowledge.

How is the placement scenario for the finance and marketing domains at NITIE?

AR
Ayan Roy Posted On : June 7th, 2023
studied at National Institute of Industrial Engineering

NITIE is not visited by many companies with dedicated Marketing and Finance profiles.

It is a richer option for SCM, Operations, and IT management placements. 

It is the leading name in supply chain management.

Only freshers are offered marketing profiles. The FMCGs offer profiles that are somewhat related to marketing (thus not fully dedicated to marketing).

Corporate finance profiles, Investment banking positions, or Banking firm positions are offered in finance. Banking firms do visit NITIE with good finance placements, for both freshers and experienced candidates. These finance placements offer good packages. However, the placement figure is much lower as compared to JBIMS and IIMC.

Here is the NITIE Placement record for Banking, Finance, and Insurance sectors:

YEAR

PLACEMENT PERCENTAGE

2022

8%

2023

11%

Students at NITIE are mostly not interested in a Finance Career. Most belong to an engineering background, almost none have a finance background. Very few students at NITIE have CFA certifications. The finance faculty is not as good as IIMs. A CFA certification is a must if you want to secure a finance position. Mostly, you are on your own. 

This is the reason why recruiters seldom come to NITIE for finance and marketing positions.
