Shiksha All Time Q&A

Jawaharlal Nehru Technology University is a government university and is funded by the government and it is located in Hyderabad.
Hyderabad being the defined centre of technology, companies and many great colleges are located in the area.
There are many foreign companies that come for placements in Hyderabad and also visit Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University to find the students capable of joining those companies.
Due to this, I would like you to suggest that it does not depend on the college placement cell, which has brought the foreign companies, that a student will get placed in a foreign company and can get a chance to work abroad.
It is very difficult to know whether any foreign company will be coming in the future or not.
It totally depends upon the companies whether they have requirements to get students from the universities.
Therefore, I would like to suggest that you shouldn't wait around for any foreign companies to come for the placements in Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University and just go abroad for better study options and try to make your own path towards getting a job abroad.
It is not definite has that every year foreign companies visit Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University for placements but I would like to say that there are some years in which foreign companies come for the placements in the university and take students from it.
Hope it helps.

If I tell you the truth, job prospects aren't that promising in India.
If you want to pursue aeronautical engineering, try going into premier institutes like IIST or IITs so that you would have decent opportunities for good jobs in the field.
Jobs for aeronautical engineers generally are:
Maintenance of an aircraft: Aerospace engineers test new aerodynamic and aviation systems, and maintain them.
Aircraft designer: Aerospace Engineers specializing in this field deal with designing, constructing, and testing aircraft, missiles, and spacecraft. They may conduct basic and applied research to evaluate adaptability of materials and equipment to aircraft design and manufacture.
Aviation engineer: Aerospace engineers in this field deal with the airport design, aircraft navigation technologies, and aerodrome planning.
Defence: Aeronautical engineers in this field deal with creation, maintenance and deployment of defence aircraft such as fighter jets, choppers, bombers, etc. Also, the job requires being able to handle such aircraft at necessary times.
You can work in the government sector with ISRO, DRDO, HAL, etc. We can also look at the private companies such as L&T, Godrej & Boyce aerospace, Boeing, Airbus, Mahindra, etc.
You can also go for Indian Air Force and Indian Navy.
All the best.

Agricultural engineering is comparatively a newer branch but still has decent job prospects.
Government Departments where graduates may find jobs are Food Department, Research Departments, Dairy Boards (State wise), Coir Board, etc.
When it comes to the private sector, Fertilizer firms, Research and development firms, Agriculture Machinery manufacturing firms, Food Products Processing and Manufacturing firms, etc., are the prime recruiters.
Some agricultural engineers can look towards NGOs working in rural areas. Those interested in research activities can join IARI as the junior fellow researcher.
Some positions:
Agriculture Officer
Quality Assurance Officer
Farm Manager
Research Engineer
Process Manager
Purchase Manager
Agricultural Engineer
Agricultural Crop Engineer
Agricultural Inspector
Agricultural Specialist
Farm Shop Manager
Researcher
Environmental Controls Engineer
Food Supervisor
Plant Physiologist
Agronomist
Microbiologist
Soil Scientist
Survey Research Agricultural Engineer
Industries and companies which hire these professionals:
Farming Industry Consultants
Agricultural Commodities Processors
AMUL Dairy
ITC
Escorts
Nestle India
Proagro Seed

You can easily crack MUOET in three months even if you are not preparing for any engineering entrance exam. The level of MUOET is not that high but competition is everywhere. You need to make proper time table. MUOET generally ask conceptual Questions. The mathematics part is generally easy and scoring as well. If you have studied well for board exams, then it will be quite easy for you.
Points you should know while preparing for MUOET:
1. You should spend 5 hours in mathematics, 4 hours in physics and 3 hours in chemistry.
2. Prefer NCERT books for chemistry and physics (chemistry is must).
3. Stick with the basics as MUOET tests your command over the chapters. For physics, you may prefer HC Verma (both volumes). RD Sharma objective is enough for maths.
4. Apart from all these, you should solve previous year's papers. This will give you an idea about the quality of Questions asked as well as paper pattern. Solve a lot of mock papers too.
I hope it helped. :)
Thanks.

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.
