Entrance Preview

Aligarh Muslim University Engineering Entrance Examination was the name of examination. I preferred this college because it is one of the best. The culture and heritage of this institute is simply one of it's kind. It is governed by central government.

Course Curriculum Overview

I preferred electrical branch. I am currently in first year so can't tell much. But til now everything has been awesome. Teachers are supporting. Infrastructure is amazing. Libraries offer great help. Books can also be rented from college book bank at a much lesser cost then cost of books which help economically.

Internships Opportunities

I simply does not know about the internships that are offered by the college because I haven't spent enough time here to know about internships.

Placement Experience

4.5

The placements and job opportunities offered by various companies coming in college is good. Various companies like TCS(Tata Consultancy Services), WIPRO comes to our college for placements and job opportunities. Almost all the students who wish to work in a company get their chance.

College Events

Our university is known for its culture and heritage. A lot of events are celebrated in our college like ZARF, Library Fest etc which are all awesome. The freshers party and farewell party are also great opportunities for students of various semesters meeting and knowing each other.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is simply great. It is probably the cheapest in all over India. The central government helps the students by minimizing the fees low enough so that students can concentrate on their studies easily without worrying about the money. I paid approx 12000 INR for an year that is two semesters. Another 2000 INR for the books from Book bank.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure is low enough itself that the scholarship or loan facility is simply not required.

Campus Life

Campus life is just great. One can find people from all over the world in our college. There are many extracurricular activities like SAE clib, Robotics club, Library club etc which are awesome. SAE club of our college developed a formula racing car which is great.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

I have not taken the hostel facility because my family house is near to the college. But some of my friends do live in hostile and they are really very happy about the facilities provided. If any problem are faced by them, college staff as well as student's union helps them in every possible way.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Alumni support is well know for they provide support to students in need. Senior students are also very supportive. They provide help in each and every aspect.

Exam Structure

The examinations and the laboratories are neither too frequent nor too chilled but it is a balance which is perfect. Ours is the semester system in which every year, there are two semesters leaving us with two mid semester examinations and two end semester examinations.

Admission

For the admission, firstly the notification was released to fill the forms. The course was declared alongside. The test was of objective type. 150 ques (50 each of physics,chemistry and maths) had 4 choices each which had 1 correct and other 3 wrong. After approx 2-3 months, the result was declared which consisted of selected students along with chance memo students.

Faculty

4.5

All teachers are amazing. They are like a ocean of knowledge. All teachers support the students in every way possible. Not only in studies but also in any problem that is faced by any student. They teach in efficient way by giving the subject related videos and presentations.

A honest review about NIET(fees, internship,faculties,placements,and everything you need to know before joining)

Likes

The quality of study is very appreciable. As our syllabus is very updated. Also the practical knowledge in colleges very good as well.
New buildings for 1st year as to prevent ragging is a very plus point. This prevent first year student from ragging and also give them a very friendly and good environment as well.
The placements are very good as in terms of quantity and quality as well many many companies came here and also many big companies which do not come in any other colleges in greater Noida also come in NIET.

Dislikes

The one thing I decide is high requirement of attendance which is 85% attendance by this criteria we get less time in fore hours kill enhancement and learning other things.
Also the coding culture is quite not good for 1st year as well so this thing also I don't like.
The other thing I don't like is that the assignments pressure was quite high in semester one and very very much assignments was given to our branches as well.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for setting in the campus placements is from 6 semester. And for internships the students become eligible from 4th semester and the internship is mandatory for every student. The companies visiting the college are quite in number. The highest placements which was offered during the ongoing placement is 44 lpa. And the average packages for company and profiles of a days 7 to 8 LP. The percentage of students getting placements are very good as 80 to 90% students are getting placed. My plans after getting the degree is to get the highest placement

one of the best things about iiit Lucknow is the senior junior culture senior 8 January approachable and helpful
IIIT Lucknow has developed are reputation for its coding culture competitive programming open source project and hackettrons are deeply immediate
another unique aspect is the gender ratio which is the round one girl for every 2.5 poise compared to take institute is relatively balanced and healthy

Dislikes

compare to other reputed College Lucknow does not have very vibrant fest culture there are fewer culture music
hostel life has its advantages but the dormitories system from 2nd year onward is a big negative for many living with 8 to 12 student
most of faculty members simply come to class 11 lecture and their leave without much interest in melting student or classifying doubts

Placement Experience:

student are eligible for internship from second year and for job placement i think its from 3rd year highest is 1.45crpa avg 33lpa median is 26lpa this year around 201 from 209 get placement to that make around 96 %

Our college IIT bhu don't have their boundaries it is connected to bhu that's why clashes happened every month . Students of IIT and bhu fight every month and the service of proctor in IIT bhu is very disrespectful,they are lazy and don't take actio

Placement Experience:

Our college IIT bhu provides placement at end of year companies came for hiring students and hire them . Our IIT has 2nd rank in terms of placement in all iits. At the end of 3rd year students became eligible for campus placements. Our college also provide internship in third year companies came for internship in our college.

Inside Experience of my Time in University

Likes

I really liked learning in the Electrical Workshop. The Smithy Shop and the Welding Shop were my favourites. The Faculty there, were truly very enthusiastic and not stressful. The Electrical Workshop helps us to learn the hands on skills, of labour.
I liked the Cultural Fiesta, which is an Annual Event, where different Artistic, Technical and Sport Activities were prevalent. My favourites were Jam, Debate, Artwork, Basketball, Skits and Corner Plays, Creative Writing Sessions, Onstage activities
I liked the beautiful diversity and greenery of my University, different departments, crossing one another, everyone is friendly with one another. No unnecessary mess, during the class sessions, and there were not any such restrictions while we skip.

Dislikes

I did not like the high fees structure, which surrounded with our Course, as Btech is a vast expanded course, that requires more practical skill mastery, rather than theoretical study. I think the fees structure must be revised for deserving students
The Faculty were pretty knowledgeable, but I guess they did not put their knowledge into full action. Only a few Teachers focused upon enlightening the students with profitable learning. The use of resources and knowledge is indeed must for such.
In comparision to the high fees structure, I realised that the internship and campus placement opportunities were not adequate, to amass all the departments and their students. A Company Campus Pool is not something for both Commerce and Engineering

Placement Experience:

Placements are both on and off-campus based. Placements are usually common for both IT and Non-IT students, Technical or Non-Technical. Students become eligible, in their final years to pursue internships or acquire placements. Usually students from Computer Science and Engineering avail more placement opportunities. The Medical Department have more options of Employability. Companies like HCL, Byju's, Extramarks, IBM and other local companies like Stambh Power Systems, Pieinfocomm and others have arrived. But the placement ratio needs to be increased. Off-Campus Placements are more successful. Highest Package can be 8lpa CTC to average package be 2.5lpa CTC, with profiles of assistance and associates. Atleast 30% students get placed on average. My plans are based on Learning in different ways.

Dislikes

College infrastructure and no one is serious about placement
TPO and Director behaviour they are totally unable to make your future bright

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would like to inform uh that electronic and communication is a very good trade to choose. So many carreer opportunities if you will go in in industrial area, or in government sector. Make some connections with ur seniors others it is tough to enter in industry for freshers.

I chose this college mainly because of the less fees structure and the greenary campus , a good place to study.Moreover, I'm preparing for govt exams also, so the time needed during M.tech. is enough to focus on exams too. Also, I don't want any gap between the study and job as we have to justify later during interview (the year gaps , if any). Moreover , lot of opportunities are also possible in foreign countries too , and we are also eligible for Assistant professor post (if any). I applied for Jamia Millia Islamia too , but was in waiting list , so i decided to join Aligarh Muslim University and I'm grateful that i did so....Read More
