Which college is better, the Narsee Monjee Mumbai or the Great Lakes Chennai?

AG
Akriti Gupta Posted On : July 11th, 2023
lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

The best college depends on your profile, work experience, and future prospects. Consider the following scenarios

  • If you have no or very little work experience and want to get a specialization in any other discipline than Systems or IT, then NMIMS Mumbai is the better choice for you. 
  • If you have 2-3 years of work experience and want specialization in Systems and IT, NMIMS Mumbai would be the best choice. This is because, in GLIM, students with work experience and freshers are treated as equals.
  • But if you have a work experience of more than 3 years, then GLIM is the best choice for you.

So, make a choice that suits your needs the best!

Lived in Jalandhar, India (1998–2017)

Both NIT Jamshedpur and NIT Jalandhar offer excellent B.Tech CSE programs and have a good track record of placements. However, if you have to choose one of the two based solely on placements, it would be recommended to go for CSE NIT Jamshedpur. Here are a few reasons why:

Companies such as Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Goldman Sachs have visited the campus in the past, providing students with a wider range of job opportunities.
  • Strong alumni network: NIT Jamshedpur has a strong alumni network, with many alumni working in top companies across the world. This network can provide students with valuable connections and opportunities in their careers.

How is M.Tech in Atmospheric-Oceanic Science and Technology at IIT Delhi?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : April 5th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

To be brutally honest, IIT Delhi M.Tech program of the Atmospheric-Oceanic Science and Technology branch has a very poor placement scenario. Core job opportunities are scarce and hardly any companies visit with core job offers.

Most students from this branch prefer choosing an elective from the branch that matches their preferences and try to use that knowledge during their placements. Sometimes companies don’t even shortlist this department for placements but you can approach them with the proof that you have studied the required subjects as electives although not as a core subject.

What are the future prospects of ocean engineering at IIT Madras, assuming I want a lucrative position somewhere?

AG
Aditi Goswami Posted On : March 30th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (2018)

As there is no exact definition of a lucrative position, I will answer this question objectively. Firstly, there is no comparison between MTech and MBA as the latter has excellent job prospects while MTech does not.

As far as the Ocean Engineering department of IIT Madras is concerned, you definitely will have great career prospects after graduating from this department. The faculty are experts in their respective fields and because of the small size of the department, you get to interact much better with them.

But if we talk about placements, core companies offering roles are very limited, almost zero. This is a very specific branch and has limited opportunities to offer. This situation is similar in most MTech branches other than CSE and Electrical. 

If you are genuinely enthusiastic about this branch, let me tell you this department has excellent research opportunities that will satisfy you. Anyone who prioritizes research over placements will find this branch to be pretty good. We can say that the prospects vary from person to person depending on an individual's commitment to the discipline.

will find this branch to be pretty good. We can say that the prospects vary from person to person depending on an individual's commitment to the discipline.
