Instrumentation and Control engineering of NIT Trichy is a tremendously demanding branch. I have a few friends from NIT Trichy and according to them, the department is great. Except for a few of the faculties the faculty members are cooperative. 

In fact, in this branch, you will be exposed to a very healthy learning procedure. Most essentially, the department of Instrumentation and Control engineering has a broad and diversified curriculum. You can ask some of the alumni members to walk you through the subjects, electives, curriculum, and other relevant areas of concern. 

There is nothing called instrumentation engineering. The students usually study the syllabus of the electronic branch that includes learning low-level languages along with the complete command of them. 

• There is a very high demand for highly skilled engineers who know the top programming languages like TopCoder, GitHub, and many more. 
• Learning these languages totally depends upon the person that they can do without going to college.
• Becoming an electronics engineer totally depends upon the person, and their effort, not the college. 
• Some of the students follow the GATE syllabus to enter into the government sectors. 
• Some get recruitment in top private companies by learning these programming languages. The college can help you out only by giving a proper study environment that can promote your overall development. 

If you wish to join the private sector, then only the placement facility provided by the college is useful to you.

Last but not least we can say that the college for the instrumentation branch is the version of the electronics branch of engineering. It totally depends on you how much effort you are putting into the same and not depend on the college.

For understanding the several factors relevant to the institute, you should know both the advantages and disadvantages that are in favor of you. Thus, here is a detailed breakdown of every aspect you should know about NIT Trichy. 

Instrumentation and Control Engineering (ICE) at NIT Trichy - 

• The placement ratio of the branch is really high. 
• Students can have multiple opportunities in both circuital and non-circuital engineering fields. 
• The faculty of NIT Trichy is extremely cooperative and helpful for students pursuing their higher education.
• Moreover, there is a lesser number of credits, unlike many other departments, helping students have free time. Thus, it can lead students to pursue their hobbies, alongside education.
• Most essentially, it escalates students to acquire a good rank in GATE, leading them to secure positions in top PSUs. 
• Besides, it inculcates advanced interdisciplinary engineering, making it convenient for students to secure positions at top foreign universities. 

The major disadvantage to talk about is, It can degrade your performance if you lag behind, during study hours. There is no other significant drawback of neither the branch nor the institute. So opting for this course can be a good step.

ICE at NIT Jalandhar is one of the most reputed branches in the terms of placements as well as in the aspect of GATE. I have a friend in the 2018 ICE batch at NIT Jalandhar. In 2018, the GATE IN topper was from the ICE branch at NIT Jalandhar. Also, nine students of ICE were Under 100 in GATE 2018.

Faculty: The faculties are very good, supportive, and dedicated.

Campus life:

The campus life is very happening. Various cultural and technical events are being organized for the students. If interested you can join the Robotics club and DAKSH (Solar car manufacturing team). The labs and lecture halls are air-conditioned and well equipped with smart boards and other facilities.

These are a few of the things that you opt to know about NIT Jalandhar. Hope this was helpful. 

The first and most important thing to know is “Nothing is difficult”. If you are finding difficulty in engineering then you lack passion and motivation. If you are passionate about Instrumentation then you would not find anything tough.

The atmosphere at NIT Trichy is quite competitive and you should be well prepared to score good marks in your respective branches. You might find some challenging professors. The course curriculum for Instrumentation is a blend of Electronics and Coding. It is also one of the fast-growing industries.

Here is the placement highlight of the year 2020.

NIT Trichy is one of the finest engineering institutions in India and you would surely get the best learning experience and knowledge. In terms of getting admissions at NIT Trichy, then one might say that it is a little bit difficult but not impossible, just score well in the JEE Main.

Instrumentation & Control Engineering and Electrical and Electronics Engineering are different branches. Although, both of these branches have some similarities. To choose between both of these is your choice.

Here are some of the facts about NIT Trichy and SSN.

NIT Trichy has a brand name higher than SSN. However, if you are planning to do higher education such as MS abroad, then regardless of the brand, you should choose SSN as it will help you to grow academically. 

I know a little bit about ISI Kolkata since I have a few friends from the institute. Here is what you should know about the internships between semesters. 

The course curriculum specifies that in the summer after completing your first year of M.Tech, you have to do an internship either in the industry or academia. You will have 3 options. 

Industry:

• Many companies that visit the Campus for placements of 2nd-year students also select interns for the same.
• Some of such companies are Samsung Research Labs, Google, General Electric, Reliance, Flipkart, De Shaw, JP Morgan Chase, etc.
• The average stipend offered last year was 65,000 rupees/month.
• Some companies offer more than 1 lakh/month. One of my friends interned at Samsung Research Labs.

Academia:

• As per ISI guidelines, you need to pursue an internship at a different academic Institute or industry.
• A friend of mine went to NUS Singapore, while two others went to a university in Germany. You can also apply to other institutes in Japan, USA, and Europe. People also go to IITs, CMI, and other Tier-1 Institutes of India.

Within ISI:

If for some reason you could not get an internship in the above-mentioned ways, you can approach any of the 250+ faculty members across all 5 ISI‘s and can ask to work with them in their labs.

You will have internships at the end of the first year. In the second year, you will have placements, dissertation, academics. So, the only time left to do an additional internship is the winter break after the first sem. Unless you are extremely enthusiastic, I will suggest that you take a break during this period. Because after the break you will be swamped with coursework for 1.5 years.
