What is better, IT in VSSUT Burla or in CET BBSR?

KS
Kalyan Sahu Posted On : October 12th, 2023
Lives in Bhubaneshwar

VSSUT and CET are both autonomous universities. Here are some insights on pursuing B.Tech IT at these two-

VSSUT is much older. This makes it a bigger brand. But in terms of location, CET is a clear winner. VSSUT is located in the small town of Burla.

Burla has no direct air connectivity, and the fastest mode of transport is a 6 hour train journey from Bhubaneswar. Thus, top recruiters hesitate to visit the campus for placements. But the placement stats are good. The students miss out on competitive events and internship opportunities because of the distance from Bhubaneswar. 

CET is the only government institute in Bhubaneswar other than IIIT. More recruiters visit its campus during placement season. Samsung, Dell and Toshiba are some of the top companies that visit the CET campus. 

In terms of academics, VSSUT offers a flexible curriculum. This allows IT students to opt for a few advanced subjects. CET on the other hand, has a rigid course curriculum. In any case, make sure to polish your coding skills for a successful career in IT. 

To conclude, pursue your B.Tech IT from the institution that best suits your personal preferences.

Is an M.Tech in IIT Patna a better option or not?

SR
Sushmita Rajput Posted On : June 22nd, 2023
Lives in Patna

I have a friend who completed his MTech in Civil and Infrastructure from IIT Patna and he shared his experience of the same with me. 

Course structure: The curriculum was poorly structured and failed to provide specialized knowledge in any area. The subjects included Environmental Engineering, Railway Engineering, Structural dynamics, construction planning and management, reliability, economics, etc. The mixture of subjects made it a jack of all trades but a master of none. 

Faculties: The faculty pool here is miserable and most of them are old people enjoying their life with government funds and facilities. They rarely take classes and when they do their pedagogy is pathetic and even the most difficult topics like Reliability, FEM, dynamics, etc. were poorly taught. 

Research: Comparing the research culture here and that of other IITs you will realize how pathetic the scenario is here. The reason was the lack of faculties’ research capabilities. Neither were they involved in any research work nor did they promote it to the students. 

I really hope actions are taken against the falling standards of IIT Patna and the IIT standards are restored.

Which is better for a B.Com honors - Sri Guru Gobind Singh College of Commerce or Ramjas College?

MS
Manpreet Singh Posted On : January 21st, 2022
B.Com Honours from Sri Guru Gobind Singh College of Commerce, University of Delhi (2022)

Among Ramjas and Sri Guru Gobind Singh College of Commerce (SGGSCC) it is better if you go for the latter.

  • The student crowd of SGGSCC are friendly and maintain a healthy competition with their peer groups. This is not the same in Ramjas, the crowd here are more aloof and distant towards each other.
  • Being a college dedicated only to commerce, SGGSCC has better placements. They do not have to scatter their focus in all streams like Ramjas.
  • SGGSCC has more culturally active clubs and societies students can take part in which will help in their holistic development. 
  • SGGSCC also has a better infrastructure than Ramjas. They have a huge library with 2 floors and fully air conditioned. 
  • The auditorium of SGGSCC has theatre seats with AC. Ramjas hardly has any placements for B.Com Hons or Economic Hons.

Therefore it is suggested that you go for SGGSCC to pursue a B.Com Honours rather than selecting Ramjas College.

Is NIT Calicut good in the ranking?

HS
Harshita Sharma Posted On : April 8th, 2021
M.Tech Machine Design, National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2022)

According to NIRF 2020 Engineering ranking, NIT Calicut is ranked at 23rd position. It is a good sign since in 2017 and 2018 it was ranked at 44th and 50th position, respectively.

But, the decline in ranking that it had to go through was because of the administration. Let us look at this one by one:

  • The infrastructure is not good. Hostels are not up to the mark and there are no separate hostels for PG students. The mega hostels have been under construction for so many years. Half of the college campus is forest.
  • Very few permanent faculties. Most of the faculties are visiting faculty. Even though faculties keep on retiring, no new permanent appointments are made.
  • The placement records are very bad. Core branches don’t even get placed. You can find placement only in the department of CSE, EEE, and ECE.

Hopefully, all this has changed for the better and so has the ranking in 2020. But, it was because of poor administration that the ranking saw a downfall in the past. On the contrary, cut-offs for JEE and GATE have only increased.
