What things should I do to perform well in NICMAR?

NG
Niladri Ghose Posted On : May 26th, 2023
National Institute of Construction Management and Research, Pune

Civil engineering students are typically thought to have poorer communication skills than students in any other field. Since NICMAR students are known for their strong communication abilities and are seen as proficient in the English language. This distinguishes them from other civil engineering graduates. Improve your communication abilities if you want a pleasant CTC. To enhance your public speaking, you need to present a variety of assignments and presentations in front of your class while attending NICMAR.

Assignments: Exams are quite easy to pass at NICMAR, where no one fails. Assignments are the only takeaway that matters from the trimester. Try doing assignments by yourself. You would also have easy access to the assignments of seniors, but don't replicate them; instead, utilize them as a guide to help you create a better assignment.

Maintaining general awareness will help you do well in group discussions (GDs) during the campus placement process. 

Thesis: A significant portion of your final percentile is determined by your thesis grades. The third trimester would be the due date for submitting your thesis subject. Finding a thesis topic of your own interest is a time-consuming task that requires you to spend a lot of time buried in books. If you are successful in doing so, half the battle is won. If not, you will choose an uninteresting thesis topic to meet the deadline, which will make the entire research process boring and ultimately affect your grades.

Theoretical Knowledge: Recruiting firms have been complaining for the past few years that NICMAR students don't have a solid foundation in civil engineering. A strong communication ability will get you through the personal interview stage of campus interviews, but after that, everything will come down to how much understanding you have of the NICMAR courses (PMST, Contracts, Financial Mgmt, etc.) and the basic civil engineering subjects.

ITER Bhubaneswar is a private college while VASUT is a state government college. Based on the preconceived misconception, Government colleges are better even if they are poorly located just because they charge lesser fees. However, I will be shedding light on how ITER is better than VSSUT 

  • ITER has a better infrastructure.

What are personal experiences and reviews for the Adani Institute of Infrastructure Management, Ahmedabad?

RA
Rakesh Ahuja Posted On : June 29th, 2021
Studied at Bachelor of Technology in Chemical Engineering (2020)

My friend has completed his PGDM from the Adani Institute of Infrastructure Management recently. His initial years were pleasant with no complaints about the management and the facilities.

But as he got used to his surroundings, he came across internal politics, employees who were not satisfied. The core faculty panel which consisted of 6 professors was changed within a year and a half.

New people replaced the ones on the placement committee. The team went through a complete revamp. Some of the people who joined for placements did not have any manners as to how to approach a company or how to be respectful with them. Even after a number of complaints, the management never paid any attention to any of them.

On contrary to what was promised, the institute only brought in 20-30% companies and they provided packages of only around 60% and the average package was 4-5 LPA.

In addition to that, most of the companies that the institute brought in were giving placements in the sales area. Most of the time, the job descriptions, packages, and even the locations were unclear. The director of the institute is hardly approachable.

The course of infrastructure management does not provide anything distinctive. It is very much like the PGDM program.
