Where do private universities (LPU, AMITY or SHARDA) fail compared to IIT or IIM even though they provide all facilities and also claim to have the top foreign faculties?

SB
Shreya Bose Posted On : May 27th, 2021
B. Tech Computer Science, Sharda University (2018)

Having foreign faculties or providing world-class facilities is not the only thing necessary to reach the level of IITs and IIMs. There are several necessary aspects that distinguish such private institutes from elite institutes like IIT and IIM, like - 

  • Students at IITs have different levels of educational qualifications.
  • Students of IITs and IIMs are confident to reach heights in their work careers. But, this passion is mostly missing in 90% students in of private colleges 
  • Regular students at private institutes are satisfied with Rs. 4-5 LPA packages.
  • Students from IITs usually have excellent depth in mathematics, and in coding. 
  • Students from private colleges make several mistakes in their preparation, which affect their entry into institutes like IITs. But, your hard work in college can surely make you successful.
  • Students are even placed in companies like Amazon (Rs. 16 LPA), Adobe (Rs. 8 LPA), Sandisk (Rs. 8.5 LPA), etc.
  • There are some institutes like BITS, VIT, Manipal, Dhirubhai Ambani University, etc, that are excellent institutes, having good faculties and enough resources. 
  • Other than those, most private institutes in India are not in good condition.

These are some of the main reasons why such private institutes, though providing excellent infrastructure and faculty, fail to reach the levels of IITs and IIMs.

What do IIIT Allahabad students think about Dr. Rahul Kala?

VS
Varun Singh Posted On : March 16th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2019)

Dr. Rahul Kala- assistant professor at the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics is one of the faculty members at IIIT Allahabad. He indeed is one of the finest of all. Here are something you should know about him -

  • Dr. Kala completed his 5-year integrated B.Tech (IT) and M.Tech (IT) program from IIIT Gwalior. 
  • Dr. Kala also has a Ph.D. in Cybernetics which is from the School of Systems Engineering, University of Reading, UK. 
  • Pattern Recognition and Classification, Intelligent Vehicles and Intelligent Transportation System, Robotic Motion Planning were areas he had done extensive research in. 
  • There are a good number of books and research papers written by him. 

Naturewise, Dr. Kala is one fine person who is so very humble and simple in his ways. Unless he doesn't have any lectures or meetings to attend, Dr. Kala arrives at his office around 9:00-9:30 AM and departs right at 9:00 PM in the night. 

He can be described as someone who is-

  • Down-to-earth 
  • Known for his candor amongst both his students and colleagues
  • Extremely passionate about what he does. He learns at once and makes decisions accordingly
  • Would always be seen either going through certain research papers, AI Books, Thesis, etc., and scribbling some technical formulae on the whiteboard in his office which no student would be able to decipher and wonder why even did they opt for Robotics in the first place. 
  • Even if you decide to barge into his office unannounced, he would never mind that and would be ready to help you with your thesis or coding.
  • Even if it is a teacher or even a student, he would always be a great mentor to them 
  • You'd always find Dr. Kala wearing a smile and would never find him cranky. He is someone who would also lighten the mood of the class by cracking a joke 

To capsule everything about Dr. Kala, the point that I've tried to make is that you'll receive the best guidance and learning from him. His company is always appreciated. Whether it is anyone from their labs or lecture rooms- they'd always praise having Dr. Kala around.

How is Chemical Engineering at IIT Gandhinagar in terms of course, faculty, packages and placements?

AS
Anisha Srivastav Posted On : July 17th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar (IITGN)

Chemical Engineering has a broad scope outside India but is yet to make its mark here. The field is not developed here yet, the demand is low and so is the pay. If you are genuinely interested in this field and want to pursue a career in the same, universities in the USA and Germany provide excellent opportunities. To ensure the maximum utilization of the benefits of this field, we need qualified professionals.

Infrastructure: IIT Gandhinagar is well known for its infrastructure and facilities. The new hostel has excellent accommodation facilities with 90 Mbps speed wifi. The food served in the mess is decent and there are also 4 canteens that have got a 5-star rating from FSSAI. Students are provided with 24/7 medical facilities.

Faculty: Sparing a few assistant professors, the faculty is mostly dedicated, passionate, and very learned. They provided constant assistance to the students.

Course: All the courses have the same syllabus in the first year. The semester exams are no joke and can be quite challenging at times. You will get some free time post classes so prepare well and get a good CPI. The institute follows a relative grading system so the passing marks vary from teacher to teacher.

Placements: Out of 27 registered students this year, 16 got placed bringing the placement percentage to 52.26%. IIT Gandhinagar's average package of Chemical Engineering stood at INR 14.82 LPA while the median package stood at INR 14 LPA.

Overall, the chemical Engineering department of IIT Gandhinagar is very promising although the placements are still average and need to improve.

Who is the best faculty at ECED, NIT CALICUT?

IS
Isha Sharma Posted On : March 25th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Calicut

At first, the term 'best faculty' is not an extensive classification basis. As we know Electronics and Communication are a vast field of engineering, and here we can classify roughly into Digital and analog domains.

The faculty members have different specializations and some are indeed true masters of their trend.

  • For Signal Processing - Dr. G Abhilash – He is the perfect blend of Dedication and discipline redefined. He makes students learn subjects through the blend of excellent lecturing skills as well as practical sessions.
  • For Communication - Dr. lillykutty Jacob and Dr. P C Subramanian (Chaos Theory)
  • For Semiconductor Physics, VLSI - Dr. Rama Subramanian – He is also very popular among students for his student-friendly nature.
  • For Embedded - Lyla B Das – Also the author of some textbooks, she has the industry experience and is also student-friendly.

Dr. Sathi Devi and Dr. Elisabeth Elias are also doing remarkable work in their fields.

Dr. Praveen Sankaran, Ameer P M, Dr. Rama Subramanian, and Abhilash are some of the coolest ones among the faculty members and personal favorites of most of the students. They just not come to deliver lectures but also motivate the students and share their industrial experience.
