Is it true that in NIT Trichy, Calicut, and other south colleges the professors teach in Malayalam or other regional languages?

VS
Vaani Singh Posted On : July 18th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (2017)

No, it's not true that professors in NIT Trichy, Calicut, and other South Indian schools teach in Malayalam or other regional languages. Most of the teachers are proficient in English and classes are conducted in that medium only. Occasionally some professors out of habit may speak a word or two in their regional language but it is not a requirement or the norm.

The official medium of instruction in these institutions is typically English. However, it's possible that, in some cases, professors may use regional languages as a teaching aid to help students understand complex technical concepts better.

Which B.Tech Branch is the best at KIIT Bhubhaneswar in terms of faculty and placements?

IB
Ishani Bandyopadhyay Posted On : July 25th, 2023
Studied at Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology

If you are enquiring In terms of placements then obviously CS is the best BTech branch not only in KIIT Bhubaneswar but in every engineering college. 

Out of the total recruiters, the majority seek only CS students so their placement opportunities are clearly better than students of other branches. This is exactly why many students of core branches learn coding to apply for CA companies.

Other branches that are good options include ETC Mech automobile, IT, etc. However, ETC has tough core subjects like AEC and SD in the second year that might affect your CGPA.  

My personal opinion would be to give maximum preference to CS. For this, you need to study hard and work on your coding skills and you will get a job that will help you replay the money you have spent. 

Generally, with the right mindset and hard work, every branch has its own benefits and it’s a matter of personal preferences.

Who are some of the best professors at IIT Ropar?

RK
Reema Khandelwal Posted On : September 8th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology Ropar (2016)

As some of my friends studied at IIT Ropar, and also after reading some reviews online, I can say that the best professor is Dr. Dhiraj K. Mahajan. 

He values knowledge above marks and he takes his own open time exam for students to understand their potential.

He has guided 5-6 students personally for a year and with his efforts. He helped students in securing a job opportunity in Germany for international exposure. 

Apart from him, here are some of the other good professors - Dr. Narayanan C. Krishnan, Dr. Nitin Auluck, Dr. Balwinder Sodhi, Dr. Deepti Bathula, Dr. Apoorva Mudgal, Dr. Yashveer Singh, and Dr. M. Prabhakar.

Who is the best professor in CSE department, MNNIT Allahabad and why?

AM
Anuva Maity Posted On : April 23rd, 2021
Studied at MNNIT Allahabad

MNIT has had quite a few good teachers over the years but some of them have really resonated with the students to leave an everlasting impact on our minds. Some of the most reputed teachers of the institute according to student reviews are as follows.

  • Ranvijay Singh: Professor Singh has a really thorough knowledge of his subjects and one of the few teachers who deeply care for their students. You can also approach him for extra classes in case of any difficulties even if it is not his subject. He is also great at career advice and a teacher who just wants to genuinely help and is truly one of the best teachers of CSED.
  • Neeraj Tyagi: Professor Tyagi was quite instrumental in developing my friend’s interest in networking. In my friend’s batch, he did not teach this subject but did so for IT. He was also fortunate enough to get to work with Tyagi sir and completed quite a few projects under his guidance. One of these included FTP quota on server accounts. He is open to learning new ideas and keeping himself updated, discussing things, quite accessible, and a humble teacher.
  • BD Chaudhary: It is quite possible that professor Chaudhary has retired now but he used to teach databases. His classes were miles apart from other teachers. He was a professional at teaching, much like an IIT professor, and would make you understand even the minute details of the subject. You would never feel like missing his lecture. His test papers were also quite different where he set a single 100 mark question for the half-yearly exam. He would instill the hunger for learning in students. 

These were some of the teachers that made college memorable for a few of my friends. You can hope to see a few of them taking your classes too.

How good is JBIMS as compared to IIMs, XLRI, and FMS in regard to faculty, placements, alumni, etc.?

SS
Shiv Shakti Posted On : February 28th, 2023
Guest Faculty at JBIMS for training students for GDPI for placements

You are advised to choose wisely when it comes to selecting the top MBA colleges. Most of the top colleges have excellent faculty who are experts in their fields and students highly appreciate their teachings. The alumni network is a crucial factor to consider, and it is best to speak to students and alumni of the colleges to get a better understanding.

The top-of-the-line MBA colleges include IIMs A, B, and C, which are considered untouchable at the moment. XLRI stands out for its HR batch, the opportunities it offers, and its excellent course structure.

If you are comparing FMS, JBIMS, and XLRI BM, you can consider your interest and preference. The author is biased towards JBIMS as her husband is from that college and she has close connections with the students and alumni. However, if you get admitted to XLRI BM, it is a great brand to be associated with, especially if you are interested in finance.

When it comes to choosing between JBIMS and FMS, you can opt for JBIMS if you are sure about pursuing finance, else you can choose either. Among the IIMs, the author rates IIM L above JBIMS and FMS and considers JBIMS and FMS above IIM I and K.

It is suggested not to rely on the ROI concept, as the benefits of a good education cannot be gauged in one year and do not follow arithmetic progression rules. Instead, you should look at the opportunities offered by the college and how it fits into your plan. Do not base your decision solely on rankings posted in newspapers and magazines or the highest packages offered during placement.

What department in MNNIT Allahabad has the best faculty?

RB
Ramesh Banerjee Posted On : April 29th, 2021
Studied at Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, Allahabad (2019)

Mechanical Engineering Department in MNNIT has the best faculties. However, the following are the reasons for this consideration.

  • Professors of this department are mostly highly qualified. However, a majority of them have done Ph.D., on the contrary of CSED.
  • Besides, the professors from the Mechanical Department of MNNIT are also well-experienced.
  • Most of them have a research profile, which influences the student’s mind towards the research-based work and study. They are also very helpful; if you want to pursue a research-oriented study, they welcome it from the heart.

Moreover, the most dissatisfactory thing about this department is the lack of cheering the students. My friend told me that he never saw anyone from his batch work on a research-based project or doing any further research-related studies.

I got an MBA seat both in Hyderabad Central University and Gitam University Vizag. Which is better in terms of placements and faculty?

WG
Writam Gupta, Posted On : November 10th, 2021
studied Master of Computer Applications at University of Hyderabad (2018)

Among Hyderabad Central University (HCU) and GITAM University Vizag, it is suggested that you go for Hyderabad Central University. 

  • Studying at Hyderabad Central University will be a much safer option, considering academics and placements.
  • Being a central university and entertaining politically affiliated student organizations on campus catches the attention of national media. 
  • The faculty is much more interactive here, and are more than willing to stay back after work if guidance is required.
  • GITAM has better hostels than Hyderabad Central University. 
  • HCU has much lower fees compared to GITAM.

Lastly, placements majorly depend on the individual and not on the institution. So, if you work hard no matter the institution, you will definitely secure a good placement offer from a reputed company.

Which is better in terms of a better study environment, academic quality and faculty GBPUAT Pantnagar or GBPEC Pauri Garhwal?

RS
Rajesh Sharma, Posted On : November 1st, 2021
B.Tech from Uttarakhand Technical University (2017)

It is recommended that you do not opt for GBPEC Pauri. Here are some reasons why:

  • It lacks basic life amenities and you won't be able to get proper medical facilities. 
  • Availability of water will be a big problem.
  • The hygiene level of mess and hostels here is extremely low.
  • The faculty and quality of education are not at par with GBPUAT or even DIT.
  • GBPUAT Pantnagar is a better college than GBPEC Pauri in terms of infrastructure, location, and faculty.
  • The administration is suffering from internal politics and no attention is given to student grievances.

You can rather go for DIT or GEU Dehradun which will provide a comparatively better environment and facilities.
