Shiksha All Time Q&A

It is not necessary to do B.Tech though it will raise your chances of getting into it. Through B.Tech, one need to have their stream of aeronautical and aerospace engineering. After completing the engineering, one has to go through a one year exam preparations and training process which after you will get into ISRO.
Another and the most convenient way for ISRO lovers is to join IIST, which is Indian Institute Of Space Research. You can get through this college, your JEE Mains and Advanced marks but it is very difficult to get into as cut-off is very high and accompanying with the toughest national minds.
Though if you are able to make your place, then you are provided with free education as well as free food and accommodation facilities.
After graduating from them, they make you to work with ISRO by signing a bond for at least three years.
This way, you can directly get into ISRO.
In all, a degree from aeronautical and aerospace is needed. Or else, crack the entrance exam for ISRO. Thank you.
I hope it helped.

The strategy should be the one with focused and hardworking soul.
The most important part of the competitive preparation is that the one is unable to continue the same hard work it has initiated with.
That intensity should be maintains throughout the session for making the absolute place in the toppers.
Now, the guidelines one should follow to crack WBJEE are:
Go through the entire theory portion and no part of the theory should be skipped from your mind especially from chemistry's inorganic part.
Secondly, don't let any distraction element interfere in your life because the one year may be worth the whole life.
Third, constantly focus on the previous year papers and you should be aware about the syllabus of the exam. For that, go through the website or manual of the respective exam.
For excellence in maths and physics, more the practice more the confidence is generated. Don't try to cover the whole theory by reading but practice as many questions as possible for that.
And last, have a study of atleast 6 hours and more daily.
Thank you. I hope it helped.

I think that scheme of backlog for a year back or paperback depends on the particular student and his condition. Suppose for a fourth-year guy opting for higher studies. What happens if he has a year back? His admission chances for the next year are completely wasted. But if he has paper back then he can easily clear that exam and be eligible for the same session admission. Why waste the precious time of a student?
Also, this type of governance is easy for the college authorities as they can easily document his progress in papers and a whole semester or year.
If a guy is already in a disputable condition, and he fails to acquire certain scoring or if he is scoring badly in all the subjects then the option of year back makes sense, but just that guy fails by some marks, and he is made to study the semester again or year again, I think that it is not justified.
I hope that institutes become serious about the students future and make the necessary changes that are in favour of both student and university.
Hope my opinion helps.

Management quota is a percentage seat that is reserved for the management authorities to recommend the students for. Basically, these seats are a bet and the highest bidder gets the seat. This basically happens in private engineering colleges because government ones are filing their seats by well-governed exams like JEE and other state examinations.
And you should know these seats are for the students that failed to meet the required criteria or were unable to qualify the entrance exam. So, talking of the prestigious colleges through is a little bit hard because if a college is prestigious it won't have such quota and all students in the engineering college would be well screened.
Unfortunately, the selection procedure in top government colleges is fair and square and all the seats are filled with qualifying exams only.
Still, if you want you can opt for private colleges like KIIT University Galgotias University PES University, K J Somaiya Institute of Engineering, RV College of Engineering, Thapar University, Sharda University, VIT University, etc.
Hope that Helps.
All the best.

The average placement package for B. TECH in printing and packaging technology is around 3-4 lacs while the highest placement package for the same branch is around 10 lacs.
Some of the companies that make rounds during the placement season of 2017 for printing and packaging technology branch are:
IBM, oracle, Cadbury, TCS, Tech Mahindra, L&T Ltd., Saint-Gobain, JSW Steel Ltd, ZTE Bangalore, Dabur India Ltd.
If you don't manage to get in through campus placements and go for off campus placement, then the pay package is even lower and more difficult to get through.
The training and placement cell is really dormant and is only there in the name sake and does nothing more than issuing certificates no objection certificate (NOC) for internships and jobs.
With this, I hope you would make the right choice by joining the college and one should consider this only if there is no other better college to get admission at.
Only then one should resort to getting admission at this college or should consider dropping a year.
Cheers!

Uttar Pradesh is the largest state of the country in terms of population. Same in case of engineering colleges. The giant state of the country hosts so many engineering colleges. Noida has been the Engineering hub of the state. Many good private Engineering colleges are also there. Also, it's only state which has two Indian institute of Technologies.
List of top government engineering colleges in Uttar Pradesh:
1. Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur
2. Indian Institute of Technology Banaras Hindu University (IIT-BHU), Varanasi
3. Indian Institute of Information Technology Allahabad
4. Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, Allahabad (MNNIT)
5. Harcourt Butter Technological University (HBTI) Kanpur
6. J.K Institute of applied physics and technology, Allahabad University, Allahabad
7. Madan Mohan Malviya University (MMMU) Gorakhpur
8. Zakir Hussain College of Engineering and Technology, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh
9. Institute Of Engineering and Technology Lucknow
10 Kamla Nehru Institute of Technology, Kanpur
11. Central Institute of Plastic Engineering and Technology, Lucknow
12. Bundelkhand Institute Of Engineering and Technology, Jhashi
13 Indian Institute Of Carpet Technology, Bhadohi
14. Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar Institute of Technology for Handicapped, Kanpur
15. Rajkiye Engineering College Ambedkar Nagar

Both the colleges have a collaboration with Mumbai University and have the same course curriculum for all 4 years of the four course years.
Sardar Patel Institute of Technology is much better than DJ Sanghvi.
This is because of the fact that the college had a much better reputation in terms of placement and faculty.
But, if you don't get into any of the branches like computer science or information technology, then it is not worth it, as the placements in mechanical and other such core branches are below average.
I must tell you though that both the colleges are below average and the faculty members are never able to complete the course to a 100 percent.
Hope this helps. Cheers!

Bharath University is a good university for technical education in South India.
This University is ranked 35th in MHRD ranking among all Indian engineering college. This college has 4 campuses but mainly in Chennai with a good campus life and total facilities for their students.
Aeronautical engineering is the study about the design and systems of an aircraft. There is a lot of scope for aeronautical engineering branch in government sectors and departments.Through this course, students also get a chance to study in NASA.
Placement is average in this university. The placement ratio is around 50 to 60%. The average package is around 5 Lakhs per annum.
But in future, the placements in aeronautical engineering will increase with good packages as this field is developing much in our country.
Companies like TATA Motors, Tech Mahindra, Reliance Industries and L&T are the bulk recruiters. Other than these companies , many companies like ITC, Zydus, Torrent , Sun pharma, Apollo, Ultratech etc takes students from here.

Production engineering is a combination of manufacturing technology, engineering sciences with management science. A production engineer typically has a wide knowledge of engineering practices and is aware of the management challenges related to production. The goal is to accomplish the production process in the smoothest, most-judicious and most-economic way.
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings. Civil engineering is traditionally broken into a number of sub-disciplines.
Production has a bit better scope than civil as of now. The placements and jobs are better than civil and there are many areas of interest that one can pursue after production engineering.
On the other hand the condition of civil engineers is not so good.
The core jobs are very less in numbers. Civil Department has much lower placements as compared to other branches in almost all colleges, many students from civil opt for IT roles due to lack of Core jobs. So what is the use of studying civil engineering for 4 years?
Even the premier institutes like IITs and NITs are facing same problem with civil.
Production beats civil by one or two points max.
Choose whichever you are passionate about.

Before talking about the placements, let us know a bit about the branch as it is not a popular choice in engineering. Established in 2001, the relatively new Department of Biological Sciences and Bioengineering (BSBE) strives to implement a multidisciplinary research and teaching program in modern biology and bioengineering. The department allows undergraduate (B.Tech) and postgraduate programs (M.Tech and Ph.D.). The branch is new whereas there are branches which are about 100 years old. But we are going into future not past. It is a thriving choice for engineering. It is just growing. The pay scale is not at par with other core jobs but it is satisfactory. There are other things other than money. 71% students get placed every year, making an average of 5 LPA package in core bio-engineering jobs. There are always other options for the participant. Gilead Sciences, Inc. (GILD), Amgen (AMGN), Celgene Corporation (CELG) and other pharmaceutical recruiters visit the campus for placements.
