Studied at Sir JJ College of Architecture ,Mumbai

 you can pursue Bachelor in Architecture even after completing a diploma in Civil Engineering. The scope for Architecture is increasing day by day in India. The Bachelor in Architecture course is related to the design of bridges, multipurpose buildings, industrial areas, residential area etc. Owing to many ongoing dam and bridge projects in India, there is a huge demand for Architecture students.

Since you have completed a Diploma in Civil Engineering, B.Tech in Architecture is the most logical option for you.

The candidate who has completed a diploma in civil engineering is eligible for the architecture engineering course through the lateral entry scheme offered by the Engineering colleges in India.

Under this scheme, you are eligible for admission for the second year in the Engineering course provided that you have either completed 

  • Diploma In Engineering 
  • B.Sc course

For you it’s the former case, and thus you can avail the lateral entry scheme and get admission in Architecture.

Now specifically talking about Sir JJ College of Architecture, some key points regarding the eligibility criteria are

  • For B.Arch, you should have passed (10+3) Diploma in Engineering/ Technology with Mathematics as a compulsory subject Candidates should have scored a minimum of 50% in NATA (i.e. 80/200)

Should I take NIT Surat for mechanical engineering or BITS Goa for an MSc in maths?

RS
Riya Siyar Posted On : August 24th, 2021
Studies M.Sc in Mathematics at BITS Pilani, 2021

There are different viewpoints for the same question. It primarily depends upon what is best for you, and whether or not the course you are willing to take interests you. 

One of my friends encountered a similar problem likewise, and addressing the same, here are some points you might want to consider before diving into any conclusion,

  1. A dual degree in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry is claimed as a part of Science, while others are considered in the case of Engineering. You will learn the theories of science instead of the application of technology.
  2. In Mathematics, you are supposed to learn the series of higher-order and their respective application. While, in Mechanical Engineering, you will learn more deeply about Engines, Boilers, Automobiles, Refrigerator Systems, and much more.
  3. A single degree, like Mechanical Engineering, CSE, EE, Civil Engineering, or Chemical Engineering, can be more advantageous than dual degrees. 
  4. If you opt for a dual degree in Mathematics, you have a higher probability of becoming a mathematician or a professor. But, in case you pursue Mechanical Engineering from NIT Surat, then you bear higher chances of securing a placement offer at top-tier MNCs.
  5. Your choice should always remain ahead of most others. The one piece of advice is that in NIT Surat, you supposedly cannot change your degree from M.Sc to B.Tech following the 1st year and vice versa. 

You should research the same for BITS Goa and find whether or not the rule is similarly applicable in the institute. This is the basic difference you can find between both institutes.

PGDM Marketing & Operations, IILM Gurgaon (2019)

I have friends at both Jaipuria and NDIM and based on the conversations I had with them, I will say Jaipuria is definitely a better alternative.

  • Jaipuria has a better brand value. The institute is over 24 years old with a 9000+ alumni base spread across the globe.
  • It has more than 100 experienced faculties.
  • As per the current rating, Jaipuria College Noida ranks 69th, though NDIM is not ranked at the national level, Jaipuria Noida has always been listed among the top 75-year-olds in the country by NIRF.
  • The University is AICTE-approved and provides two-year-long PGDM, PGDM in Service Management, and PGDM in Marketing.
  • The infrastructure, curricular are great. There are live projects through which you can improve your skills.
  • It also offers various scholarships to meritorious students and students from economically weak backgrounds.
  • The placement records are quite impressive. In the 2021 placement drive, the average CTC offered to the students was around 6.75 LPA.

Manipal Institute of Technology or NIT Nagpur? Which one should one choose and why?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : September 9th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

In my opinion, NIT Nagpur would be a better choice than Manipal Institute of Technology. Here are some key reasons why 

  1. NIT is a government institute so receives huge funds and also charges less fees.
  2. Some of the NIT Nagpur departments are at par with that of IITs.
  3. The crowd is more diverse and you get to interact with people from different walks of life and cultural backgrounds.
  4. MIT Manipal has a better placement scenario. Its average package is INR 14.10 LPA while NIT Nagpur's average package last year was INR 10.36 LPA.
  5. The institute has a decent campus life with all basic amenities
  6. Connected to National knowledge network (provides highest available internet speed in India +100mbps)

It’s advisable to talk to students from both colleges and compare their reviews before making the final decision.

Can anybody give the correct Dr. CV Raman University review?

AS
Aniket Sharma Posted On : June 27th, 2021
B.E. Computers & Information Technology, Dr. C V Raman University (2011)

Dr. C.V. Raman University is a newly established institute, which offers average-level infrastructure, opportunities, and placement. There are several reviews about the university being a fraud institute, which is not at all true. The points below give a brief overview of the institute.

  • It offers decent placement, considering its recent establishment. It is obvious that students in the institute should not expect companies like Microsoft and Google o conduct recruitment drives in it.
  • It is one of the finest private colleges in Chandigarh and provides good academic as well as port facilities inside its campus. The scenario of job opportunities provided by the institute is getting better with time.
  • The institute is a good place for students who are actually interested to study a specific engineering course, and go to research fields in the future.
  • The main backlash that the institute faces is the truth of its establishment, due to several fake negative reviews over the internet. For this case, students can visit the UGC website to verify the identity of the university.

It is a decent choice for an engineering degree and is a legit institute. Being a newer institute, it is still in the phase of development and growth.

How is mathematics at SVNIT?

AS
Amit Sharma Posted On : January 6th, 2024
Studied at NIT Surat

I graduated from SVNIT some years back. During my time, the faculty and teaching methods for Math were not up to the mark. 

I personally love Mathematics, which is why I opted for CSE. The time spent in studying Math at SVNIT made me realize that the teaching methodology was not good at all. During this time, I failed to learn any good Mathematical principles and applications. 

The lecturers provided very few examples and cookie cutter solutions instead of explaining why an idea works and where it can be applied. The teachers expect students to mug-up theorems. Fourier Analysis is not given ample time, even though it is the crux of all modern technology and data analysis techniques. 

The exams can be easily cleared by learning all the solutions from certain books, instead of using one’s conceptual knowledge and math skills. I would recommend you go through B. S. Grewal. It helped me understand important concepts like ODEs and the Taylor Expansion. Math-III is totally focused on three theorems, and learning the derivations of each one of them. 

I do not know the current state of the Mathematics department at SVNIT, but back in my days, the faculty did not try at all to improve the students’ concept building. Thus, if you are really passionate about Math, the department might disappoint you.

Whether you will get a call or not depends on a lot of factors. For general category students, IIM Bangalore cutoff stays around the 99 percentile. However, for interview shortlisting, IIM Bangalore considers a lot of factors - 10th, 12th, graduation scores, bachelor's field of studies, work experience, etc.
