How is the integrated M.Sc in Pondicherry University?
Some of my friends studied at Pondicherry University. According to them, they offer three Integrated M.Sc programs –
- Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science
- Physics, Chemistry and Applied Geology
- History, Sociology and Political Science
You will have to choose from these three disciplines only and then choose the major subject among them.
The advantages of the course and university are listed below.
- You can exit the course after three years with a B.Sc degree.
- The syllabus is light even though there are three major subjects and thus you can take up any additional courses you like.
- The university offers freedom in terms of uniform, timetable, and everything else while many of the undergraduate colleges still have school-like rules.
- You can study an undergraduate course from a university which is pretty rare.
Studying 5 years in an Arts stream is difficult and should be reconsidered. The best course is Physics, Chemistry, and Applied Geology. Doing M.Sc in Computer Science is also not a good idea.
What should I choose, a dual degree MSc program in BITS Hyderabad or some branch in NIT Raipur, or CSE in NIT Puducherry?
Choose BITS Hyderabad over NIT Raipur or NIT Puducherry. Here are some of the reasons for choosing this institute:
- They offer a beautiful campus with an enthusiastic student crowd.
- BITS Hyderabad has updated modern machinery and lab facilities.
- The placements definitely differ between the BITS and NITs.
- NIT Raipur is very old-fashioned in its approach towards studying and learning.
- Their faculties teaching method is old and prefers their students mugging up notes rather than learning and understanding something.
- BITS, unlike NIT Raipur, their teaching method is industry-oriented.
You might think that going for a dual degree is better as IT companies only prefer CSE graduates. But nowadays this notion has changed as with big data and analytics creating a boom, more and more such companies visiting campuses and hiring people from all branches.
Therefore it is suggested that you go for BITS Hyderabad, where you will grow and learn in a much more competitive environment. Your vision will be broadened.
