Dear Friends,
.
Based on my GATE score last year, I applied and got calls from IITB, IITK, IITM, IITG, NITIE and CCMB. Though I got admit offers from IITB, I chose to enter the Techno-Management arena, by joining the Industrial Engineering course at NITIE, Mumbai.
NITIE is one of the Centers of Excellence of MHRD, Govt. of India along with IISc, IIMs and IITs.
.
The PGDIE course aims to equip Engineering graduates with Managerial skills in a scientific and systematic way, so that they can work with finnese in ANY industry in the future. The basic concepts taught in Engineering are extended to encompass many theoretical and practical avenues of management.
The institute welcomes students with a high GATE percentile, with good acads and extra curriculars, good project/work experience and a streak of BOTH Technical skills (in any branch) and Managerial attitude (of any kind). The selection process considers these things, and also the cumulative scores of a Group Discussion and Personal Interview round.

Please understand that this is not an advertisement of any sort, but just an info. Had I been not fortunate to read a scrap of a person on a topic similar to this last year, I would never have set foot in this beautiful institute.

Congrats to all those who have secured good ranks in this year's GATE.. For others, there is no end of the world either, as the options are wide open still...

In continuation with my previous post, these are some of the things which I wished to share with u all..
.
The PGDIE course at NITIE, since its inception from 40 years, has seen 100% placement for its students. Some of the companies that have recruited Industrial Engineers over the years include HUL, P&G, Ranbaxy, Cadbury, ITC, J&J, KPMG, HSBC, Standard Chartered, E&Y, Godrej, Deloitte, GSK, Pepsico, Oracle, Citi Bank, Marico. Also companies like DU Telecomm, Olam International had also been offering Foreign placements to the deserving candidates.
.
If u r having above 98 percentile score in GATE, then u stand a very good chance in getting admit to this prestigious institution of MHRD, Govt. of India which is a Centre of Excellence, along with IITs, IISc and IIMs.
.
Since the no. of seats this year has increased by a big amount, those having 92 to 98 percentile may also apply, as they also have a good chance of getting and admit here.

Specifically for Biotechnology / Life Sciences / Pharmaceutical Engineers :
The Industrial Engineering program has engineering graduates from all streams like Computer Science, Mechanical, Electronics, Production, Textile, Pharmaceutical and Biotech also. The concepts taught in the program go a step further in a way as to how one can effectively manage organizations and their processes,which are basically technology based. Suppose a Biotech engineer knows about CSTR operations, then the concepts of 'line balancing' and 'operations scheduling' will be very helpful in making optimum use of your resources in any industry - even in a pharma based or biotech one.
Similarly, the concepts of Facility planning and Supply chain operations taught in the PGDIE curriculum may help u in deciding how to best design a Biohazard laboratory minimizing contamination, while maximizing workflow. Quality control logistics can help u in deciding optimum routes in sending vaccination vials from one place to other. Finally Financial Cost accounting may help u in deciding ur costs for manufacturing your enzymes and manpower requirements.
So PGDIE course stands as a revolutionary course, which will not only make u self-dependent., but also make u as the prime point of contact from companies like Glaxo Smith Kline, Ranbaxy, Dr. Reddy's etc. which have visited our campus in the recent past for both placements and consultancy.
NITIE is the only college in the country which offers Industrial Engineering on a PG level. In USA etc., they have many colleges offering this course, and it is a superhit course out there.
So guys and gals - get ready to experience the joy of academic learning, coupled with business acumen, by being a part of this legacy of 40 years.. BEST OF LUCK for the GD / PI Process !
