Hi all,
Recently Collegekhabar.com has started a campaign for ranking Engineering Colleges in India. They claim that it would be one of reliable ranking as they would going to consider student's perspective in big way along with Placement stats.
I am agreed on one point that 'Ranking' of should have element of placement above all which every student look in. Placements also reflect the trust institute has gained till date among Businesses. It also reflect quality of students, facilities utilization and live projects (some industries considered them very important like -IT)
I am copy-pasting details of this 'Ranking by Collegekhabar.com':
IITs & few other top-notch institutes rule in the engineering domain, but CollegeKhabar brings ‘Engineering College Rankings 2010’, an attempt to find out:
Institute where do top recruiters go first?
Institute which have the better placements?
Institute with the best academic environment?
Institute with the best corporate relations?
……and so on……
This ranking will be useful:
For engineering aspirants to compare among the best options available
For colleges to know where they stand & where to emphasize on improvement
For industry in their campus recruitment decisions
For students and alumni, for whom it is a matter of pride
But when there are already a lot of surveys/rankings done by big-shots in industry then what is the use of one more?
This survey will be focused on most important aspect student seek in a college – Placements*. Importance is also given on industrial relations, opportunity to work on good projects and quality of faculty members.
Quality of an institute can be judge by the perception of the students who are studying there or by opinions of Alumni. We tried to link them with this ranking. So this ranking/survey results will be the outcome of what current students & alumnus in engineering domain think about the institutes.
* Our secondary research shows that students put placements in engineering colleges a way ahead than faculty - student ratio, infrastructure, intellectual capital etc.
