Hello Sir, My daughter has got Mechanical Engg. at NIT Nagaland in CSAB Round 1. She has already joined BTech Electronics & Computer Engg at VIT, Chennai. Is it advisable to leave VIT and join NIT Nagaland? How good are the faculty & placements at Nagaland? Is it safe there? We are in a dilemma to let go of the NIT tag. Please advise. Thank you Sir

Ans: The NIT tag carries prestige and recognition, but it’s essential to weigh it against the quality of education and overall experience, both NIT Nagaland and VIT Chennai have their merits, more or less reach out to current students or alumni from both institutions to get firsthand insights.

Majorly you have to consider factors like faculty expertise, infrastructure, exposure, and peer learning. You have to discuss with your daughter her preferences, career goals, and comfort level.

You may proceed for NIT Nagaland, it has a Training and Placement Cell that actively works on industry collaborations and skill development for students. While it’s a relatively new institute, it has made progress in terms of placements. Last year, about 70% of the first batch students received placements in reputed companies like National Instruments, Polaris, Verizon, Aricent, and IBM.

I have completed my msc in biochemistry n now doing internship but I am confusing about my future because I see this field don't pay me inuff for life even for future... N don't have more jobs in Maharashtra. I don't like production jobs but in Pharma only production pay much so what can I do .. Can u suggest me which job is high payable after Msc biochemistry
Ans: Hi Nandu,

Greetings!

Could you please let me know which year you completed your course and whether you are currently doing an internship or apprenticeship? An internship is part of the curriculum, where students gain practical training, sometimes with a stipend and sometimes without. After completing your course, you can opt for an apprenticeship, which typically lasts one to one and a half years and includes a stipend, usually split 50%-50% between the industry and government.

If you are in the internship phase, please inform me about the specific field you are working in. Initially, you may not expect a high salary, but after gaining expertise in your field, your compensation will improve. Typically, this takes about three years, so it’s important to focus on skill acquisition for a better future.

If your internship aligns with your field of study, I encourage you to continue and consider starting a medical lab or exploring opportunities in medical devices related to biochemistry. However, pursuing a career in pharmaceutical production may not be suitable for you, as it is a different field, and you may find it challenging to grasp the processes involved since you are currently inexperienced in that area.

Please share the specific field of your internship, and I would be happy to provide more tailored advice.
with regards
