Is PESIT South Bangalore better than IEM Kolkata?

TB
Trish Banerjee Posted On : July 17th, 2021
B.Tech in ECE Department at Institute of Engineering and Management, Kolkata (2020)

Having friends at IEM Kolkata, I can say that this question is similar to the debate between IT and CS.

  1. As a student of IEM, you will find the professors striving diligently for you. Growth in IT is determined by two things - how you make the most of the opportunities you are getting and how much effort you are willing to put in.
  2. You will get exposure to so many opportunities due to the presence of a number of organizations around you, PESIT would be an efficient choice.

My friend got PESIT but did not opt for it, instead, he went for IEM. If he had chosen PESIT, he would have to push himself all the time to achieve his goals.

If you get a chance to join top institutes, do your research and opt for the very best. You will be the one to spend 4 years learning that particular subject. In this case, both IIIT Nagpur and IEM Kolkata are good colleges.

Having known people studying in both IIIT Nagpur and IEM, I can say that IIIT Nagpur was recently established whereas IEM is quite older and has enough experience as an educational institution.

  • It won’t be reliable to take admission in IIIT Nagpur as it is new. Though it possesses a good faculty and placement record.
  • You can take CS at IEM confidently as the faculty is well experienced and possess relevant qualifications.
  • Besides, IEM is situated in one of the biggest IT hubs of east India.
  • Mostly all IT companies near the college visit the campus for recruiting and conduct industry visits.

What should I take, IT in IEM or CSE in Heritage Institute of Technology?

SM
Sayantani Mukherjee Posted On : September 27th, 2021
Studied at Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata

In terms of college, IEM and HIT both provide similar career opportunities in the IT sector. Major recruiters like TCS, Infosys, CTS, Capgemini from the IT sector visit both the institutes. 

If you had to pick between the two engineering fields, you should always go with CS. If you select CS, you will be able to apply for a variety of government/public sector positions (ISRO, BARC, IOCL) after completing your B.tech. Only CS guys are qualified to apply for the majority of these government jobs. 

Parameters  IEM Heritage Institute of Technology in Kolkata
Tuition fees (B.Tech) 5.88 lakhs 3.93 lakhs 
Average CTC  INR 5-6 LPA INR 3.75 LPA
Highest CTC  72 LPA  16 LPA 

As you will get similar opportunities you can choose either. Also, outside of WB, no one cares if you're from IEM or HIT. Unless you're from JU, everything is the same.

I'm in my last semester of graduation the results come in August, am I eligible for the mba program now? if not, then when should I apply?

PM
Priyanka Mukharjee Posted On : May 9th, 2022
studies at IIM Ahmedabad

Yes, you are eligible to apply for an MBA course. Technically, you need to have completed your graduation, to get admission to an MBA degree. But students in their final year of graduation can appear in MBA entrance examinations. If you are able to score a decent percentile in the entrance, you will get a provisional admission. Your admission will be final, once you complete your graduation with the required aggregate marks. Your provisional admission will be finalized once your graduation results are declared and you submit the relevant proofs. So, if you have a valid MBA entrance score, you can apply for an MBA program.
