How is the chemical engineering program at Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata? Please provide details about the infrastructure and faculty members.

DJ

Deeksha Jaiswal

04 Sept 21

I can assist you with the latest scenario of Chemical Engineering at Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata.

Curriculum:

  • Being an autonomous institute, the curriculum is pretty up-to-date. Though subjects such as Petroleum Refinery Engineering, Piping, etc are missing
  • As the institute is new, you can see the slightest change in the syllabus over a timely basis.

Faculty:

  • Maximum teaching faculties have done their Ph.D. from reputed institutes and some even have exceptional teaching qualities.
  • There are few, who are willing to put in extra efforts for sincere students and guide them whenever possible.

Labs:

  • Almost all labs do not have a sufficient number of apparatus which leads to students performing experiments in groups.
  • But still, the labs are pretty much sufficient and enough to clear your basic idea about the subject.
  • Computer Labs lack modern softwares such as Aspen, ChemCAD, etc. but recently they have started introducing FLUENT and COMSOL, MATLAB, and AUTOCAD.

Research Facility:

  • You won’t see much research happening here due to a lack of infrastructure.
  • The project lab is not very well equipped but if want do some project you are guided by the faculty.

Placements:

  • Companies like Linde, Phillips Carbon Black Ltd., Haldia Petrochemicals, and Voith Paper recruit regularly.
  • There is a good aura for someone who’s aspiring to crack GATE to get into some PSU and also, who wants to pursue higher studies both in India as well as abroad.

Ultimately it totally depends on you and how you use the resources provided to you for your benefit and how you seize the opportunities which come to you.

How is Chemical Engineering at NIT Surathkal?

RG

Reshmi Ghosh

23 Mar 21

My brother graduated from NIT Surathkal, with bachelors in chemical engineering and hence I could give you quite a relatable experience.

To be clear, chemical engineering is not like studying chemistry. There is only 20% of chemistry and the rest is all physics. You might also want to do your own little research for further understanding of the branch what subjects it entails. There is no point in me mentioning all the curriculum details here.

The basic point here that I’m trying to make is that if you are fond of solving intricate problems in the petroleum and pharmaceutical industry, chemical engineering is the right fit for you.

The placements here are well known and historic. Apart from the handful of students who wished to pursue their higher studies, all the other students in the batch were quite well placed. Therefore, you can stop worrying about the placements from now on.

The only minor concern here is with the professors. Apart from a few professors who are quite old, the others are not quite impressive. They care less for students’ ability to understand complex matters and subjects.

Can I get into the chemical engineering program at IET Lucknow with a general of 20K and a GNGL of 2,500?

SS

Shivani Singh

04 Aug 21

Honestly, the answer is No. One of my friends was in a similar situation and he did not get admission with a rank closer to this.

With the GNGL rank of 2,500, it would be very difficult for you to get into the chemical engineering program at IET Lucknow. The general rank is way higher.

I would strongly suggest you not settle for any random private college with this rank. It would be better to take a year drop.

However, if you have other options such as JEE Mains, you can try private colleges like LNMIIT, Thapar, etc.

Should I join IIT Delhi chemical or top NIT CSE?

SG

Sushmita Gupta

01 Apr 23

Yes, irrespective of the branch, choosing IIT Delhi will always prove to be beneficial for you. IIT Delhi has ties with many big firms that visit the campus for placements and offer great packages irrespective of your branch. One needs to be proficient in DSA and other computer science core subjects such as OOPS, OS, DBMS, and Computer Networks. A good grasp of these will fetch you a high-paying job no matter which branch you belong to in IIT Delhi.

Although most companies that visit IIT Delhi also visit NIT, your IIT tag will always fetch you extra benefits and no one can deny that. For instance, the same role offered to an IITiand will have more salary than that offered to a non-IITian.You can easily switch roles and fields given the brand name of the institute you are associated with. IITians even have more opportunities for higher studies in Foreign countries than non-IITians.

IITians especially from Mumbai or Delhi are always given preference over non-IITians hence it is advisable to go for IIT Delhi in any branch.
