Question 12

Which is better, PESIT VTU or PES University?

Accepted Answer

As far as the name of the university is concerned, let me tell you that PESIT became PES University back in 2014.

It is also known as PESU and like every other university, it also has its own advantages and disadvantages. The authorities at the university are keen on trying to create a strong workforce.

With PESU being in the early stages of its development, it also requires attention in many areas. For this, the authorities are quite careful with and everything.
Now, when you talk about PESIT VTU or PESIT South Campus, this college follows the pattern set by VTU. So, you can easily trust it.
This pattern has been tried and tested and quite a lot of colleges are known to follow it. But, PESU on the other hand, is trying something new.

The first batch at PESU passed out in 2018. You can accordingly check how well this and the other batches are doing and if taking admission at PESU is a risk worth undertaking.

Categories	PESIT	PESU
Course Fee	13.6 lakh	2.35 lakh
Highest CTC	30 LPA	35 LPA
Average CTC	12 LPA	16 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Wipro, Cognizant, Infosys, HP, etc.	TCS, IBM, Accenture, Capgemini, etc.

If you are looking for a practical and useful curriculum, you should think of applying to PESU as the curriculum here will provide you with exactly this.

Question 13

What is the average package for students of CSE at PES University?

Accepted Answer

The average placement package for CSE students at PES University according to my friends, ranges from INR 10-11 LPA. This was for the year 2020 during which many companies revoked their offers made to the students or reduced salaries owing to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns.

About 80% of the students get placed within 2-3 months of the start of the placement season.
More than 10 LPA average CTC is offered in the CSE department alone.
For the year 2019, more than 120 students have got more than INR 10 LPA as fixed compensation.
Though their overall CTC can be much higher just like Microsoft which offers INR 39 LPA as CTC only INR 12 LPA is the actual salary.

The table below will show the companies, their CTC, and the number of students they took.

Company Name	Final CTC	Number of students taken
Microsoft	INR 39 LPA	11
Goldman Sachs	INR 22 LPA	10 - 15
Cisco	INR 13 LPA	25+
Morgan Stanley	INR 16 – 18 LPA	2 - 3
Walmart	INR 18 LPA	4 – 5
Zynga	INR 14 LPA	3 – 5

Other companies offering fixed compensation of more than 10 LPA include Myntra, Epsilon, Sabre, McAfee, One Direct, Target, Mentor Graphics, Sorocco, Societe Generale, MIQ Digital, Capillary Technologies, etc.

Deloitte offered a package of INR 6.5 LPA and it took more than 90 students where all the branches were eligible. So you can say that this is an average package for all the B.Tech students. This would be much higher for CSE students, while less for other branches.

Question 14

How important is it to attend PES University orientation?

Accepted Answer

You don&rsquo;t need to attend the Orientation program at PES University. The authorities usually conduct a ceremony about the various aspects and details about the University. These details can help you in getting to know more about the University and understand its working process. You will be informed about the grading system for examinations and tests, the credit system, code of conduct, various clubs of the University, Data of Placements, and much more. The students attending the orientation with a &ldquo;Course Information Book&rdquo; that includes various relevant information about the syllabus and information of the subjects that are taught to students in the first year of college

Question 15

Which is preferred: a PESIT VTU degree or a PES University degree? Why?

Accepted Answer

It's challenging to determine which is preferred between a PESIT VTU degree and a PES University degree, as both have their pros and cons.

PESIT VTU degree may be preferred as it has a long-standing reputation and has been around for a while. The degree is recognized by many top companies, and graduates from PESIT have gone on to secure excellent job opportunities. The syllabus is well-established and has been tried and tested for years, ensuring a well-rounded education.

On the other hand, the PES University degree is a relatively new degree, and its value is yet to be determined. However, it is independent of the VTU and provides more specialized education in the chosen field. The syllabus is enhanced, and the university has modern infrastructure and technology that can be advantageous to students.

Ultimately, it depends on what one's priorities are. If a well-established reputation and recognition by top companies are important, then a PESIT VTU degree may be preferred. However, if specialized education and access to modern infrastructure and technology are priorities, then a PES University degree may be the better option.

Question 16

How tough is the first year at PES University?

Accepted Answer

My brother studied in this institute, so I might be able to help you with the question. Let me discuss how his first year went.

Honestly, at first, you do feel that your first semester is tougher than other colleges.
The faculty is good and very friendly and cooperative.
The marking scheme, the assignments, and the volume of study, plus the skewed branch-wise ratio can result in excessive peer pressure.
But once you've figured out how the system works it will be easier to manage.

Furthermore, from ex-students and present students, you will get to know both sides of the coin. You can then compare both of their experiences. You will get to know what changed and how tougher the first year became from before.

Other than your dedicated departmental subjects. Both physics and chemistry are also equally difficult. They require some surreal level of effort to achieve a good GPA. You just have to stay focused and concentrate on your studies. It is easier to improve your GPA in the first year.

Question 17

How is the average day at PES University like?

Accepted Answer

Life at PES University is very good, both in terms of education and recreation. For every student, an average day is different, with some similarities in routine like attending lectures and labs, taking short breaks, giving attendance at the hostel, etc. The points below are an in-general list of tasks and events a student goes through, based on reviews.

Students wake up at 8 AM and hurry for classes, which start at 8:15 AM. You will enter the classes from 8:20 to 8:30 AM.
Hiding hostel id cards, students will act like being local students and blame the traffic for being a bit late.
Around 10:15 AM, students rush towards the food court for breakfast, making sure that all of their friends are attending the next class. Otherwise, they decide their part by calculating their attendance, whether it is above 60% or not.
After 10:45, a series of classes and labs needed to be attended as regular periods.
12:45 is usually lunchtime.
After 1:30, again a series of classes and labs are scheduled. Some students skip those, others attend them but with much less enthusiasm.
3:30 PM is the end of the day in college and students rush towards their hostel.
3:30 to 5 PM is a fun time for students to spend some time on social networking and the internet.
At roughly 5 PM, students fetch some snacks from the food court.
5:30 to 7:30 PM is the time to play FIFA with friends, one of the most interesting time spans in hostel life.
7:30 to 8 PM is dinner time. Students rush as fast as possible to get the best out of the meal.
9 PM is the curfew time, where students had to give hostel attendance.
9 to 12 AM is also dedicated to FIFA gameplay.
At 12 AM, it is time for the students to get ready for the UCL or other football league.
12:30 to 2:30 AM midnight is the best time, watching football with friends with great enthusiasm.
2:30 AM is the time when the day gets over, and it’s time to sleep.

This is the overall routine of a normal student’s day, with classes, breaks, games, fun, and a lot more.

Question 18

When will I get my degree at PES University if I have a backlog of subjects in my final semester?

Accepted Answer

If you have a backlog in any subject in any semester, you have to clear it first. No Indian University can grant you a degree without clearing all your backlogs, even the private ones such as PES University.

There is a system called Fast Track in which you can clear 2 backlogs of 4 credits each within two weeks after your final semester at PES University.
If you still have more subjects or you could not clear them during the two-week window, you have to clear them within the summer term period.
If you can clear all your backlogs before the summer term, you will get your degree with other students as usual.

Finally, these are still plug-in mechanisms. Try to avoid backlogs altogether if possible.

Question 19

How is MRD scholarship given in the 1st year at PES University? Is it given to the top 20% irrespective of branch or is it given to the top 20% of each branch?

Accepted Answer

According to the latest guidelines by the institute regarding the MRD Scholarships, you need to be in the top 20% of students of your own section or class for any particular academic year. Then you will be entitled to get a tuition fee waiver of 40% for the next academic year of study at PES University. This is executed on a semester basis.

Now you should also fulfill some other criteria to be eligible for this scholarship. Which are as follows.

Your SGPA or Semester Grade Point Average should be above 8.5 for that semester.
You should not have been absent in any in-semester assessment (ISA) or end-semester assessment (ESA) exams.

The scholarships would be given after the result declaration and yes it is considered for each branch or section.

Question 20

Is the PES University CSE branch worth paying 3 lakh/annum through the PESSAT?

Accepted Answer

The PES University CSE branch is a popular choice among students who wish to pursue a career in the field of computer science and engineering. However, whether it is worth paying 3 lakh/annum through the PESSAT depends on several factors, including your personal goals, financial situation, and career aspirations. Here are some points to consider:

Quality of education: PES University is known for its academic excellence and has been consistently ranked among the top private universities in India. The CSE program is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in theoretical and practical aspects of computer science and engineering, and the faculty members are reputed in their respective fields. If you are looking for a high-quality education that can prepare you for a career in the IT sector, PES University could be a good choice.
Placement prospects: Another important factor to consider is the placement record of the university. PES University has tie-ups with several reputed companies in the IT industry, and the CSE branch has a good track record of placements. If you perform well in the program and maintain a decent CGPA, you can expect to land a job in a reputed company with a decent package. However, it's important to note that placement opportunities are not guaranteed, and your own skills and efforts play a crucial role in securing a job.
Cost: The cost of education is an important consideration for many students and their families. PES University charges a fee of 3 lakh/annum for the CSE program through the PESSAT, which can be a significant financial burden for some. If you have other options that are more affordable and offer similar quality of education and placement prospects, you may want to consider them as well. However, if you are convinced that PES University is the best option for you and you can afford the fees, then it could be worth the investment.
Scholarships and financial aid: PES University offers scholarships and financial aid to meritorious and deserving students. If you have a good academic record or are from an economically weaker section, you may be eligible for financial assistance that can reduce the cost of education. It's worth exploring these options to see if you can reduce the financial burden.

In conclusion, whether the PES University CSE branch is worth paying 3 lakh/annum through the PESSAT depends on your individual circumstances and priorities. If you value high-quality education and good placement prospects and can afford the fees, PES University could be a good choice. However, if you have other options that are more affordable or offer better value for money, you may want to consider them as well.
