From which year are MNNIT Allahabad students given single-seater rooms?

AB
Anuva Bhowmik Posted On : November 30th, 2023
Studied at MNNIT Allahabad

The scenario of hostel room allotment is different for girls and boys at MNNIT. 

Girl students do not get single seater rooms even in their B.Tech final year. Final year girls get two seater rooms.

Now as for boys,

  1. Freshers are allotted Swami Vivekananda Hostel, and each room contains 3 people. It is a newly constructed 7 floor hostel building. The rooms are nice, except for the lack of LAN connection and below average mess food. The in-time is 8:30 pm.
  2. During the second year, one has a choice. Either one can choose the senior hostel complexes- Patel Hostel / Tilak Hostel, or opt for Tagore Hostel. The earlier two have 2 seater rooms, while Tagore is 4 seater. Tagore Hostel is exclusively made for second year students, and it is spacious. But it is far from the college campus, so one has to walk a lot for the whole year. Patel and Tilak are old hostels, and inhabited by senior students as well. 
  3. In third year, one gets a hostel from among the four senior hostels- Patel, Tilak, Tandon and Malviya. The rooms are two seaters, but there is a single LAN port in the rooms, so wifi sharing is predominant.
  4. During fourth year, one is allotted a hostel among the four senior hostels. But as a final year student, one gets a single room. 

This is the complete detail regarding room allotment for hostellers at MNNIT Allahabad.

Which is better if one is planning to apply for an MBA/PGDM from IIMs after graduation: ECE and/or CSE at NIT Durgapur, or IT at Jadavpur University? Why?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 8th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Let me share with you some important details about these courses/institutes-

  1. NIT Durgapur is a residential campus so you’ll get ample exposure during your undergraduate studies. On the other hand, JU doesn’t even offer IT on its main campus.
  2. NIT DGP is an Institute of National Importance. This makes it more significant on a national level.
  3. NIT Durgapur is seeing a growing number of recruitments in its CSE branch. Startups visit the campus with interesting offers for CSE students.
  4. The student community of NIT Durgapur is more diverse.
  5. NIT DGP has no political interference. JU, on the other hand, is heavily influenced by state politics.
  6. In terms of extracurricular activities, JU is a better choice.
  7. The CSE/ECE departments of NIT DGP lack good infrastructure, have inconsistent course structure and content, and have a low teacher-student ratio. These departments lack quality research work.
  8. Phd.s in the CSE department of NIT Dgp are low in number.
  9. But NIT DGP carries the much-valued ‘NIT’ tag.

That being said, I feel you are at a very early stage of narrowing down your goals and aspirations to this extent. Enter your UG with an open mind, and an aim for self-discovery. Right now, you have a picture in mind of doing an MBA. But I don’t think you have a proper idea of the different specializations in this degree. 

You should have made a clear decision by the end of your 3rd year. Before that, pursue internships and discover your field of interest. Right now, look for the institute that will offer you the best technical education and the best future prospects.

What are the best things for Punjab University students to do on weekends?

NS
Nandini Sen Posted On : June 28th, 2021
M.Sc Master of Science in Mathematics, Kurukshetra University (2016)

Punjab University is located in Chandigarh and there are many places to visit and things to do there on weekends. But then again after some visits, it will eventually become repetitive and except for a few places which are worthy of a second visit, you will eventually get bored. So here are some things you could try to do on weekends instead –

  • Mohali, a nearby town in Punjab is famous for international cricket matches as well as IPL. You could visit there sometimes with your friends.
  • The university campus is beautiful. If you are a photography enthusiast or you are fond of making video blogs, then definitely you could consider doing those during weekends.
  • Also, the city of Chandigarh is close to the Himalayas. So there are plenty of hill stations such as Manali, Kullu, Kasauli, etc. to visit and spend the weekend in mother nature’s lap.
  • You could also join some club or committee or society and work on your weekends. They organize various activities such as street plays, blood donation camps, BP and diabetes-free check-up camps, etc. You could volunteer for such activities which will help in better utilization of your time along with doing your bit for the society.

Lastly, you could also sleep in your own room and enjoy movies, TV shows, etc. on Netflix. This is the most common thing that youngsters do. If you are among those who like to keep their rooms clean, then you could do that on your weekends as well.

RS
Rati Singh, Posted On : November 16th, 2021
B.Sc. from Ravenshaw University, Cuttack (2018)

Admission to Ravenshaw University (RU) is done purely on a merit basis. Your scores in class 10+2 examinations will determine your selection.

First, fill-up the form and wait for the merit list. If you are selected in the first round, you will be needed to submit the documents with a demand draft of the amount mentioned. 

If you are in the waiting list then also you will have to come to the college to submit the demand draft, showing your interest in taking admission. If you do not get selected, your draft will be returned.

The cut-off marks usually change, so nothing could be said for sure. To get some idea about it you can check the previous year's cut off marks in the admission brochure.
