Hi, how good is a B.Tech + MBA integrated course from NMIMS, is it worth and does the industry accept such degrees?

Ans: Industry does accept such degrees. The problem here is that the Btech + MBA course is conducted by the Technical institute. It will be worth it only if the placements that are offered are common with 2 year MBA students from NMIMS. Else the placements may not be good.

I want yo know if the Btech integrated 6 year course after 10th std offered by Nmims has equal value to the Btech course done after the 12th? Would you recommend it? What is the value of such courses abroad or jobs in India? MIT pune also offers a similar course
Ans: The value of an integrated B.Tech. program after the 10th standard versus a traditional B.Tech. program after the 12th standard depends on various factors. Generally, both paths lead to a B.Tech. degree, and the value often lies in the institution's reputation and the specific program.

NMIMS and MIT Pune are reputable institutions, and their integrated programs are designed to provide a comprehensive education. However, it's essential to consider the following:

1. Curriculum and Accreditation: Assess the curriculum and accreditation of the integrated program to ensure it aligns with industry standards.
2. Internships and Industry Exposure: Evaluate the opportunities for internships and industry exposure, as practical experience is crucial in the job market.
3. Career Opportunities: Research the placement records and career opportunities for graduates of both programs.
4. Flexibility: Consider the flexibility of the integrated program in terms of adapting to changing career goals or pursuing higher education.

In India, integrated programs are gaining acceptance, and reputable institutions like NMIMS and MIT Pune are recognized. And abroad, some universities may have specific entry requirements, so it's advisable to check with the institutions directly.

Ultimately, the decision depends on your preferences, career goals, and the specific offerings of each program. If the integrated course at NMIMS or MIT Pune aligns with your aspirations and provides adequate industry exposure, it can be a valuable choice. Consider contacting alums, attending information sessions, and gathering as much information as possible before deciding.

Sir, My son studies in VIT Vellore in CSE specializing in AI and Machine Learning. He just finished his first year semester with 8.56 CGPA. Can you please guide how to go further maintaining CGPA and what else to do extra apart from studies to get good placement in companies. He is keen to work in Google. Thank you.
Ans: Some important tips for your Son here to follow: (1) To maintain the same and / or try to increase his CGPA (2) He should start upgrading his skills through NPTEL, Coursera, Internshala, LinkedIn etc. and / or from any other online platforms, recommended by his College Faculties (3) Maintaining a good student-faculty relationship till 4th year (4) Giving more importance to Class Notes and the Reference Books recommended by his Faculties (5) Involving in co-curricular (related to his domain) & extra curricular activities which can be / should be reflected in his Resume (6) Improving his soft skills / communication / presentation skills during the next 3-years which also can be shown in his Resume during his Campus Recruitment Drive (7) Should have a Professional LinkedIn Profile & keep updating them every 3-months (8) Connecting with Professionals of his domain (should not ask for jobs). Not advisable. (9) Put Job Alerts, (related to his domain), in LinkedIn Itself to get notifications to know the Current / Future Job Market Trends and how to upgrade himself accordingly. (10) He also should start RESEARCHING from now, about the Recruiters who visited the Campus during the last 2-3 years, related to his domain, company's Profile, Manpower Strength, Nature of Business / Services Provided etc. This will help him to be more CONFIDENT at the time of Interview in 4th year.
