Which would be better to take from NIT Trichy: instrumentation and control or production?

AB
Anirban Biswas Posted On : September 4th, 2021
Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata (2020)

I know a little bit about ISI Kolkata since I have a few friends from the institute. Here is what you should know about the internships between semesters. 

The course curriculum specifies that in the summer after completing your first year of M.Tech, you have to do an internship either in the industry or academia. You will have 3 options. 

Industry:

  • Many companies that visit the Campus for placements of 2nd-year students also select interns for the same.
  • Some of such companies are Samsung Research Labs, Google, General Electric, Reliance, Flipkart, De Shaw, JP Morgan Chase, etc.
  • The average stipend offered last year was 65,000 rupees/month.
  • Some companies offer more than 1 lakh/month. One of my friends interned at Samsung Research Labs.

Academia:

  • As per ISI guidelines, you need to pursue an internship at a different academic Institute or industry.
  • A friend of mine went to NUS Singapore, while two others went to a university in Germany. You can also apply to other institutes in Japan, USA, and Europe. People also go to IITs, CMI, and other Tier-1 Institutes of India.

Within ISI:

If for some reason you could not get an internship in the above-mentioned ways, you can approach any of the 250+ faculty members across all 5 ISI‘s and can ask to work with them in their labs.

You will have internships at the end of the first year. In the second year, you will have placements, dissertation, academics. So, the only time left to do an additional internship is the winter break after the first sem. Unless you are extremely enthusiastic, I will suggest that you take a break during this period. Because after the break you will be swamped with coursework for 1.5 years.

How do I get the transcripts from University of Madras if I live abroad?

VE
Vinu Elangovan Posted On : October 1st, 2021
Studied B.E. from University of Madras (2004)

You should use some service provider such as “Mail Transcripts” or “Clear Transcripts” for the same. These services are online and quite seamless with a very simple process. 

  • Fill the online application in the portal and submit the required fee.
  • Send your original documents to the university. Here the service provider will come in handy as they will do the talking with the university on your behalf. 
  • You have to submit the notarized documents to the service provider after they come up with a solution.
  • Then you will get your transcripts at your doorstep without much fuss. 
  • They will send your transcript to WES/IQAS without needing your intervention.

You can do all this work by yourself or through some of your acquaintances as well but it will take your precious time on unnecessary work.

Which college is better Umesh Chandra or Jaipuria?

AL
Amol Lohani Posted On : October 4th, 2021
Studied Accounts Honours at Seth Anandram Jaipuria College (2018)

After doing some research online about these colleges, I got to know some things which might help answer your question.

  • Both the colleges will provide you with a degree from Calcutta University. But the brand value varies for both the colleges.
  • There will be a huge difference when you will mention Jaipuria college in your CV as compared to Umesh Chandra college.
  • This question also depends on what else you want to pursue along with your B.Com degree course.
  • If you want to enroll in CA or pursue some other course now or further, then it is suggested you opt for Umesh Chandra college as it is a more lenient college.
  • So, Jaipuria College evening is a good option if you want to seriously learn about the subject both theoretically and practically. 
Categories Umesh Chandra College Jaipuria College
Course Fee 3,770 (1st year) 4.72 - 5.44 K
Placement Percentage 75-80% 80%
Average CTC 5 LPA 6 LPA
Recruiting Companies TCS, Infosys, etc. Cognizant, Tech Mahindra, etc.

One of my friends is currently pursuing the CA from Jaipuria Evening college. He feels satisfied with the academics till now. So yes you could opt for Jaipuria as well. But ultimately it is your decision so choose wisely.

Can I change my shift at MSIT after taking admission?

SS
Samita Saha Posted On : May 17th, 2021
Studied ECE at MSIT

Yes, you can do so. But you can only do that once you are in your 2nd year by the procedure known as the migration process. In this, you can change your college and shift too.

  • For intra-college migration, i.e. migration within the college, you have to score at least 78 CPI, it is based on the credit score for each subject.
  • In GGSIPU you get credit for each subject. The credit system is such that each subject has certain credits for e.g. Eco is given 4 credits, Accountancy 1, and so on. After the result, each subject is marked and multiplied against credits like if you scored 80 out of 100 in Eco, your credits are 80×4, i.e. 360. The rest of the credits are summed up to get CPI.
  • CPI is used for up-gradation. All the up-gradation is totally based on 1st-semester marks. You have to fill an up-gradation form and have to submit it on the official website. There are usually 3-5 seats in each branch for up-gradation and for this you have to be among the toppers. 

Migration from one college to another does take place too. You have to score really well for the same. The information regarding inter-college migration can be found on the official website.
