How is the chemical engineering branch at Manipal Institute of Technology?
MIT's chemical department has a rich legacy of over 50 years and is one of the university's oldest and most reputed departments. Here are a few core highlights of the department
- The department has a strong alumni network and some of them have made it to the position of Board of Directors of big companies.
- The faculty is highly qualified with excellent research experience, strict yet helpful in clearing your doubts.
- MIT Manipal does not have a very active research culture, especially at the UG level. The scenario however is gradually improving as they are being called for conferences with well-published journals.
- The curriculum of the chemistry department of MIT Manipal is decent and at par with BITS since the HOD was an alumnus of BITS.
- The department has well-equipped Chemical Engineering laboratories such as Mass Transfer, Heat Transfer, and a Process Control lab.
- There is also a computer lab decked with the latest engineering software - CAD, Aspen, and Matlab.
- As per the institute's Practice School Policy, students can complete their final year projects outside the institution.

A few companies that have recruited students from this department in the past are Jindal Steels, Grasim Textiles, Reliance, and Mangalore Refinery.

Can I get into CSE at Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering with a rank of 21 429?
One of my friends recently graduated from Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering and according to him, if you fall under the General Merit category, there is no chance of getting CSE in DSCE. For DSCE the recent cutoff for CSE is 2361.
But if you fall under other reservation categories, then there is a chance you can get a seat in the second shift in CSE. Check the recent cutoff rank for your category to know about your chances.
There is no difference between the normal shift or the second shift. The only difference is the college code. Rest all is as the normal shift. You can't change your branch if you get admission in the second shift.
If placement is your concern, then you can also go for DSATM. Because during placements, both DSCE and DSATM students are allowed to attend together in the same campus.
There is no partiality between DSCE or DSATM for placements. All are given equal opportunity.
I have scored 86 marks in JEE and 86.4% in boards is there any chance of getting IT in Heritage institute of technology?
Before making a decision on what college you want to get admitted to there are some factors that must be kept in mind: the quality of academics and faculty, extra-curricular activities, the record of recent placements.
- In the Heritage Institute of Technology, the head of the department barely ever engaged in any interaction with the students and never had a say in any matter.
- The quality of the faculty members is not good. There are exceptions but most of them lack knowledge so they are of not much help.
- No events involving extra-curricular activities take place on the campus.
- Talking about the placements, the average salary package is only around INR 3-4 LPA. Companies like Wipro and TCS visit the campus but the job roles offered are not good.
There are far better options such as IEM and Techno India. Heritage is an overhyped institute. Also, look for institutes that are not in Kolkata if you want better exposure.

How is life at pondicherry engineering college?
Life at Pondicherry Engineering College is quite enjoyable, mixed with a lot of emotions and activities throughout the four years.
The points below give a brief overview of life at the institute, based on the reviews of students who were once a part of the same.
- The professors are extremely qualified and teach well. But, some of the newly recruited teachers in the institute are not that good at their job.
- A maximum of 60% of the entire syllabus is covered by the teachers throughout the semester classes. In case of lab works, teachers are quite strict in evaluation.
- The pattern of the exam is totally similar to the Anna University, which is a little primitive in nature. It is not very much helpful for students learning and has much less impact on logical thinking skills. Passing the theoretical exams is not at all difficult, and can be cleared through simple mugging. Practical exams are much more serious and need proper concepts.
- The campus of PEC is very beautiful. For nature lovers, it is a perfect place to stay and walk around with a bunch of friends. For commuting inside the campus, having a cycle is necessary.
- Students need to reach the city through crowded buses. But, the overall atmosphere of Pondicherry is enough to soothe the students.
- The time restriction for the girl’s hostel is 8:30 PM, which is somewhat inconvenient.
- Most of the students in the hostel are from south India, especially from Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Andhra Pradesh. There are few north-Indian students, who seem to be disinterested in attending classes mostly.
- In PEC, there are all kinds of students mixed together, students who are nothing other than bullies, extremely outgoing students, and even very few outgoing students.
Life at Pondicherry Engineering College is a mixture of thousands of aspects, including fun, serious practical sessions, activities, and lovely campus.

Should I pursue ECE at a new IIIT like IIIT Bhopal or attend an NIT in one of the Seven Sister States?
Firstly IIITs are newly established colleges and hence they are far behind from good NITs. I have a friend in NIT Silchar. I heard good things about the institute from him.
Here are some of the things that make NIT Silchar a good choice.
- It is 9th on the list of top 10 NITs.
- It is the second most premium institute in the northeast after IIT Guwahati.
- Placements here are top class with great infrastructure and world-class faculty.
- NIT Silchar is known for its Digital Library which is the biggest, not only in India but in entire South Asia.
You should go for NITs and you won't regret it. Rest depends on your research and feasibility.
