Digital Marketing Follower & Experienced Sales Professional

IIM (Indian Institute of Management) is one of the country's top business schools. To graduate from the IIMs is a goal shared by many students. IIM offers Executive MBA Programs in addition to its well-known Post Graduate Diploma in Management Program. Professionals with a minimum of five years of work experience are typically eligible for these executive MBA programs. Apart from the Executive MBA Program, there are many specialized Executive Programs available today, such as Digital Vidya's Executive Program in Digital Marketing in collaboration with Deakin University. Freshmen, consultants, marketing specialists, and people switching careers can all apply for this program. Nowadays, people are more interested in Digital Marketing specialized programs rather than generic MBA programs.

With a top salary of INR 89.25 lakh and an average salary of INR 23.67 lakh, it projected a positive placement season for its eleventh batch. A batch of 68 students received a total of 61 offers, 61 candidates accepted the offers, 5 students returned to their previous employers, and 2 students opted out of the placement program. IT services firms led the charge with 29 offers, followed by consulting firms with 8 and e-commerce firms with 6. Consulting, banking/finance, manufacturing, and real estate were some of the other industries with a lot of hiring going on. There were 78 companies in total that participated in the campus placement process, and major employers included Accenture, Amazon, PwC, Virtusa Polaris, EClerx, Flipkart, and Cognizant. 

The best part is that by the end of the program, you will have three months of the internship experience. Consequently, there were 7 months of learning and 3 months of implementation. The curriculum offers a good balance of academic knowledge and real-world application.

Which is better after graduate in civil: an M.Tech in transportation engineering from an IIT, or construction management from an IIT or NICMAR?

AS
Ajit Singhania Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied M.Tech in Electrical Engineering at IIT Kharagpur

IIT Delhi and IIT Madras offer a Post-Graduation in Construction Technology and Management. To secure a seat at either of the institutes, you must obtain a good rank in the GATE examination.

IIT Delhi gives more weightage to the technical aspects of the course, while NICMAR focuses more on the managerial aspects of Construction. The curriculum of the course is unmatched, yet the placements, at times, can be quite unanticipated. 

Both the courses are quite equivalent to each other on various stages whatsoever. But, when the decision boils down to which among the both is better, then IIT Delhi might win the race.

Now, the Transportation Engineering department from IITs is indeed a great course. The average package some of my seniors from this course secured was about INR 5 LPA. However, by all means, your placement partially also depends upon whether or not you are typically prepared for it.

Why is IIIT Allahabad IT a favourite among the people even when its cutoff is around 12k, when compared to CSE at other good NITs like Nagpur (6.5k), Bhopal (9.5k), and Surat (9.5K)?

JG
Jatin Garg Posted On : February 26th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad

There are several reasons for IT in IIIT Allahabad to gain popularity among students. The table below gives a brief level of comparison among IIIT Allahabad and three NITs, Nagpur, Bhopal, and Surat.

Particulars

IIIT Allahabad

NIT Nagpur

NIT Bhopal

NIT Surat

NIRF ’20 Ranking

103

27

65

54

Median Salary Offered (B.Tech)

Rs.12.9 LPA

Rs.6 LPA

Rs.6.5 LPA

Rs.6.7 LPA

Size of campus

100 Acres

216 Acres

650 Acres

251 Acres

Key Highlights:

  • There are a total of 180 seats in IT at IIIT Allahabad. This is 3 times the number of seats in CSE at NITs. So, there is a greater chance of getting selected for IT at IIIT Allahabad.
  • There are no state quota seats in IIIT Allahabad, which is a great benefit for students’ all-over India. Considering the fact that 90 seats are allotted to students in UP and the rest 90 is available for all other students, is a huge competition that may result in a much higher cut-off. This is not the case in IIIT Allahabad.
  • Mostly, students after 12th have little knowledge about good institutes or good branches in institutes. Surfing over the internet and selecting colleges with lower opening and closing ranks is done by maximum students. This results in students choosing lower graded NITs over IIIT Allahabad.

These factors establish the popularity of IIIT Allahabad, even when it has a higher cut-off for IT than CSE in some good NITs.

IIIT Allahabad, like most CFTI, has a set of students managing placements and getting companies on board. So the placement scenario is directly proportional to the quality of peers and their ability to attract the best companies. 

The placement scenario has observed an improvement over the past few years. IIIT Allahabad offers an excellent ROI because it charges fees much less than other private colleges.

Overall, the placement scenario might need improvement but the knowledge, experience, brand name, and scope of growth IIIT Allahabad offers are great!
