How is NIT Srinagar in comparison to NIT Silchar and NIT Agartala for a student from Delhi-NCR?

AG
Akriti Gupta Posted On : August 31st, 2023
lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

One of my friends from Delhi is pursuing MTech from NIT Silchar. He claims it to be the best college in the North East at least for North Indians. However, the quality of food served is not very good and there are many varieties of veg food around the campus. The campus life is vibrant but it's better to go for other NITs in the North. NIT Silchar is a decent choice if you are getting CSE, ECE or Mechanical else go for CSE in NIT Agartala or NIT Srinagar. Also, if your goal is to pursue higher studies, then go for NIT Agartala as it has better connectivity from Delhi, the hub of coaching institutes.

Which should one choose for studying, IITM or IIIT Hyderabad for CSE?

DS
Divya Saraf Posted On : August 1st, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

One of my friends has completed both his Bachelor’s and Master’s in CS from IIIT Hyderabad and still suggested his younger brother go for IIT Madras. 

He feels that IIIT Hyderabad certainly gives you an edge in getting placed initially but it restricts your prospects to a large extent. IIT Madras on the other hand gives a wider perspective and scope. Students get to learn specifics in their sub-field.

The lab facilities offered at both institutes are equally good. However, you can join as an intern/RA later in any of these institutes. So this affects the research edge in specific areas. IIT Madras seems to have better research options mainly because of its huge size.

Outside life shouldn’t be a problem in either institute because both are excellently located and offer a great urban life. So look at the vegged picture and choose wisely!

What has more value, an IPM from IIM Indore or a BBA from some reputed college and then an MBA from some top IIM?

FS
Farah Shah Posted On : January 12th, 2023
Studies Integrated Programme in Management, IIM Indore (Expected 2024)

First, keep in mind that you're looking for a program that will help you develop your entire personality while also giving you access to cutting-edge amenities and facilities and an assured MBA from one of the best B schools in the nation. The IPM course offered by IIM Indore is ideal for you if this is what you're looking for.

If, however, you are solely interested in a BBA program and are confident that you can enter IIM ABC after BBA despite the competition from roughly 2 lakh engineers, then go for it.

However, if you choose to do so, you also have the choice to leave the IPM after receiving your undergraduate degree and enroll in a better business school to complete your MBA. Therefore, if you must choose between the two, it is advised that you go with the first because it will give you better exposure, a more competitive environment, better amenities, and a rare opportunity to graduate from an IIM that is among the top 5 in the nation.

Can IIM Calcutta PGP students get a job at multinational banks like Citi and HSBC in the US from placements?

RS
Ragini Shah Posted On : December 1st, 2022
Know quite a few things about CAT and IIMs

Multinational banks, private equity firms, and investment banks used to pay a visit to IIMs to directly recruit candidates for the US. It no longer happens. These MNCs have been extremely cautious since the 2008 crisis and the 9/11 incident. They rarely hire IIM graduates for these positions unless they are exceptionally talented or have a particularly unique skill set.

However, these companies do regularly recruit for roles in India and pay very well. The figures aren't huge, but they're adequate. IIMC is known as the "Mecca" of finance for good reason. It is the best place to be if you want to work in finance.

If you perform exceptionally well, you have a good chance of being transferred abroad after a few years of significant experience. At the moment, the only international placements available are to Dubai, Singapore, Malaysia, and, at most, Europe (though this is relatively uncommon). Your chances of going abroad increase as your performance in the company and the impact you make in your role improve. So hone your skills and concentrate on working hard in your company. You will be given the chance you deserve.

Which business school is better, Thigarajar School of Management or PSG Institute of Management?

YS
Yukti Sharma Posted On : July 7th, 2021
MBA from PSG Institute of Management (2018)

Both Thiagarajar School of Management and PSG Institute of Management are average-rated tier-2 institutes, none of them being up to the mark for an MBA.

The points below give a brief overview of the PSG Institute of Management, which has a sight better reputation than the other.

  • Placement in PSGIM is moderate. The average package offered to students in MBA is around 5 LPA, which is considered to be not so decent for MBA graduates.
  • For marketing, the placements are somewhat better. For students in finance, only two major companies, BNY Mellon and State Street visit the campus for placement in core finance jobs. So, most students in all branches of MBA go to sales profiles only.
  • The highest package offered in the institute to date is close to 9 LPA, which is not very high.
  • Academics in PSGIM are is moderate, which is nowhere close to that of IIMs and XLRI.
  • The course offered in the institute is not residential and so, there is less focus on summer internships and practical knowledge-based learning.

Both the institutes are not very good options for MBA degrees. But, PSG Institute of Management still manages to offer some decent jobs in Marketing and so it can be considered.
