Faculty Executive Position: Fill & Download for Free

Yes! Definitely. I graduated from BBA in Jan 2014 along with many of my colleagues. Its tough finding a well paid job here in Pakistan, like everywhere else currently. After a month of searching for jobs, i got a call from Axact and they offered my content writer position with 30k per month in Rupees, which is quite good here for a fresh graduate. However, i had heard about Axacts rumours so I refused. They called again after a few weeks and offered an executive position for their sales team with 50k salary per month. I again refused. Although I was tempted to accept it, I didn't fearing the damage it would to my resume later on. Anyway, after two months of graduation a friend of mine started working at Axact. He was offered the content writer position for 30k and took it. I asked him about all the rumours concerning Axact. So he told me that yes its true. He told me that just after a couple of months serving there as a sales guy, one gets promoted to sales executive position with 60k salary and a car. He confirmed to me that they do actually issue false/fake degrees online.And most of the general public already mew all about this even before the NYTimes article. Furthermore, I have visited the so called fake university websites and anyone with even the most basic exposure to internet would find by just surfing through those sites that they are fake. I dont understand how Americans and so many other people got duped like this. I mean the faculty page doesn't even list the faculty members. And the programs page doesn't have any detail regarding any program. One has to be really stupid to get scammed like that. Anyway, all the sympathy with the ones who lost thousands of dollars like this.P.S. I don't have any bias towards NYTimes or Axact. Just telling what I know.

Of course it is!The IFBI faculty has to have at least 7–10 years of work experience in India’s leading banks - in a managerial position, and this is constant throughout the country.All the IFBI courses (PGDBO, PGPBS, PGDB+) are worth it.They allow a fresher to be introduced in an executive position in a leading bank - where they can work, learn and gain experience.All in all, it gives a good jump start to your career.That is what 99% of the graduates want in the country, and NIIT (not to boast too much) makes it possible.

Disclaimer: I am a 4th year IIT-K CS student. So, my answer might be slightly biased. I would also recommend that you get advice from an IIT-D CS guy as it would give you a more balanced perspective. I will list out the pros and cons of IIT-K as I don't have a good idea about IIT-D.I will first list out the pros and cons of the institute in general and then focus on the CS department.Pros:1) Liberty:You don't have LAN bans, download limits, compulsory attendance(well, it is a percentage of the overall course weightage in some courses, but generally, not even that), no fixed time by which you should be in the hostels, the campus etc. There are no restrictions regarding the dress code.( I have had several meetings with my advisor in slacks and slippers) Boys are allowed in girls' hostels and vice-versa until 12 in the night.2) FoodI am sorry, but this is the thing I like most about my campus. You can get some food for 22.5 hours of the day. Only for a very short period of time between 4 AM and 5:30 AM will you be unable to get any food. Hostel canteens open at 2 in the afternoon and remain open till 2 in the night. The Food Court remains open till 4. At 5:30 in the morning, you would be able to get samosas, tea etc. Also, having lived in a Kota hostel, the food in my hostel was surprisingly better.3) ClubsInterested in something? There will be a club for it. If there isn't one, you can open your own. (assuming, of course, that you get enough people interested in the same activity) More importantly, you don't have to approach a professor for opening a club, you just put up a proposal in front of the "Students' Gymkhana"(composed almost entirely of students in executive positions). If the Gymkhana approves it, you are done.4) Counselling Service:The counselling service is, in my humble opinion, the most important organization in IITK. In my stay here, I have seen the mind-numbing amount of work done by people in the counselling service. They organize extra lectures for the weaker students, provide guidance and support for those on the brink and bring them back.5) Flexible branch change policyStarting from my junior batch( the Y12 batch), branch changes are allowed in case there is a vacancy in the department which you wish to shift to.6) Flexibility regarding course templateI guess this should be present in most institutes. You are allowed to shift the order in which you take courses (to a certain extent). For example, in my 5th semester, instead of the department prescribed template, I took some PG level courses which were being offered. I would obviously have to do the courses specified, but not necessarily in the order in which the department specifies them.Cons:1) Compulsory coursesAs far as I know, this particular irritant is present in all IITs. We need to do some very stupid compulsory courses in our first and to a certain extent, in our second year. These courses are intended to give an idea about all the damned departments present in the institute.I will now move to the specifics of the CSE department.The CSE department is, in my humble opinion, one of the most liberal departments at IITK. As far as I know, it allows academic flexibility unheard of in other departments of IITK. In my batch, we have students who have done as many as 5 PG level courses in the 3rd year, something which would be unthinkable in most other departments.However, we have a huge faculty crunch. I think this would be present in most other CS departments, but if you are interested in research, this might pinch you. If you do have some idea about your area of interest (most people don't, so don't worry about it), you could look at the following to know about the profiles of the faculty. Department of Computer Science and EngineeringIn case you do know about your research interests, a majority of our faculty members are interested in theoretical computer science, specifically, in computational complexity theory, randomized algorithms, streaming algorithms etc.(and if you are interested in theoretical computer science, I would recommend IITK) while we have fewer faculties interested in systems, code verification etc. and very few faculties interested in machine learning, AI, artificial intelligence etc.PS:I had the same doubts three years ago. In hindsight, because I became interested in theoretical computer science, it looks like I made the right decision. However, do not fret too much over the decision. Both of them are good IITs and it wouldn't be a life-changing decision. You have done the hard work, do not worry too much over this decision.Edit:I don't think this would influence your decision, but the CS department has 6 open electives which can be any course from any department.(IITK has an MBA program as well and you could potentially pick all these courses to be MBA courses.) We also have, in addition to the common courses in the first year, 4 science options and 4 departmental electives. Just in case.
