Anyone wanna go to Indian Institute of Technology to study?
IIT is well renowned in Asia. Some of their top graduates get drafted into MS, Google and others in sillicon valley.
The IITs were ranked third-best worldwide for technology, after MIT and Caltech. IIT is one of the best if not the best IT uni in the world today , this is a fact acknowledged by MIT
Here comes the best part
Cost:
Per annum
fees around US$6K
living expenses around US$4K -

Most of the graduates head towards Silicon valley in US or India's own tech developement facility.
Considering the money spent and the competition from fellow IIT graduates in the job market, it'll be overtly expensive for a Singaporean to study there. Singaporeans will be asking for a higher pay due to higher cost of living than their Indian counterparts, even if they have the same degrees. -
i read its harder to get into IIT den MIT, not including high competition and not very recognized among non-IT sectors. e.g. a dye company would never have heard of it even if they have an IT department.
overall, its still not worthwhile for foreigners to study there.
ps: i rather go china. -
who cares.

Expensive and no guarantee of a job in MS, Google or Silicon Valley.
By the way, those who think Silicon Valley is still the place to go for a tech job, please wake up. -
you are dumb...i don't know why the heck about "regionally recognized"..Originally posted by Herzog_Zwei:It's only regionally recognized... not globally... anybody bothered to read the bloody sentence?

the fact is that US can pay these talents better than what SG can offer... as simple as that.
if you wanna talk about how recognized they are.. i would say SG can't afford to recognize them....even if SG can.. they will be taking the leftovers...Top ones all go US liao la....why? because they are recognised... -

silicon valley is not as bad as you think... not many people can make it there because all the gd jobs are taken up by the better ones. -
I am not dumb. If you checked properly, IIT's degree is not globally recognized hence you can't take that to anywhere in the world which needs your professional specialization. If fact, that certification is mainly recognized in the Indian subcontinent, although a few graduates made it big in US.Originally posted by weeie:you are dumb...i don't know why the heck about "regionally recognized"..

Yes, Singapore does employed those that it recognizes through the LAOTSE plan. And paywise, which Singaporean graduate can take a S$900 per month paycheck. Only the local graduates from IIT can afford such a paycheck and still survive. -
Whether it guarantees a job, I don't care.Originally posted by weeie:no uni guarantees you a job in MS, google or silicon valley..

I don't agree with the Silicon Valley part. There's no such thing as a good or bad job, only whether you are interested in it or not. -
You work in a global world, not a regional continent. The world is not a just a continent either. The fact that only a few universities recognize shows how famous it is. And add on to the fact that barely anybody outside of India knows what the heck IIT is, you get the drift.Originally posted by weeie:you are dumb...i don't know why the heck about "regionally recognized"..

IITs are a group of seven autonomous engineering and technology oriented institutes of higher education established and declared as "Institutes of National Importance" by the Government of India (in their constitution ).
So no joke ok. anyway the living expenses u can get really cheap food in India if u don;t take the unversity campus offer
If u hav been living like a turtle in its shell which never popped out its head, its time to wake up and see the world.
1. Brief description of the higher education system in India
The India higher education sector has expanded at a phenomenal rate in the last century. The European system of higher education was introduced in India by the British in 1857 with the establishment of universities for European education in three cities and withdrawal of support for indigenous education. By India's independence in 1947, an additional 18 universities had been established. In 1950-51 when the country's First Five Year Plan was launched, there were 27 universities serving 174,000 students. By 1997 there were 229 universities (composed of general universities; science and technical universities; open universities; agricultural universities; women's universities language universities; and medical universities), more than 8,000 colleges, and 6.4 million students, making India's system of higher education the second largest in the world (Chitnis, 1999, 26).
India also have ranking of their uni.

It is a fact NTU and NUS will never make it to their Uni requirements. So its time self proclaimed idiots shut up and face the facts.
The most humble part is that IIT dont boast and say they are the best IS0 certified, what Sh*t things like that. They make others talk about their graduates when the pass out. Wake the hell up u turtles. -
Wow, strong language indeed!
What is IIT's ranking in the world? And also the other unis? -
Dumbsters are everywhere. ForgivableOriginally posted by Herzog_Zwei:Expensive Uni without worldwide acreditations...+1 and ban...
The reason why IIT is not advertised becos they accept mostly their own Citizens
the 2nd thing is that u are mind dumbingly "right". US silicon valley accepts IIT graduates who are "not recognised" -
give me scholarship and stipend i also dun wan to go there.
-
Repeat post
Wow, strong language indeed!

don't worry no one will force U to go there.
Given the Uni provide U with scholarship and stipend, I bet U can get these from Local Uni or even Australia Uni and be above to graduate spending half the time!
cheap but it is for postgrad.
don't think they take students at undergrad level. -
MIT caters to the smartest from all over the world whereas IIT caters almost exclusively to indiansOriginally posted by TehJarVu:give me scholarship and stipend i also dun wan to go there. -
So IIT is not ranked? LOL
NTU and NUS are a regular feature in the world rankings every year. -

IITs, world's 3rd best tech universities

There's another feather in the much-adorned IIT cap.
The United Kingdom-based Times Higher Education Supplement has ranked the Indian Institutes of Technology as the third best technology universities in the world for 2005.
In a statement, THES said: "Our peer review of the world's top technology universities shows that in 2004, the high praise for the Indian Institutes of Technology was no fluke. Up to third position in 2005 from fourth place last year, the IITs are a source of Indian national pride as well as innovation and wealth."
The technologists among our peer review panel regard Imperial College London as the UK's hottest university, ahead of Cambridge University and fifth in the world, the statement adds.
The rankings, THES said, is dominated by the United States, no surprise for the world's top high-technology nation. It appears 26 times in the top 101 institutions in our list. For once, this area is one in which Harvard University ranks outside the elite, appearing in 21st place.
"Our definition of technology covers the main engineering disciplines including information and communications technology. Viewed alongside the tables for science subjects, our rankings suggest it is possible for a university to be strong in science but not technology, and vice versa," THES said.
The top science institutions, Cambridge and Oxford universities, cut less of a dash in engineering and IT, placed 6 and 13, respectively, while the IITs come 36th in science despite being third in technology. Overall, 10 of the top 20 institutions in science are rated by our peer review panel as being in the top 20 for technology and IT.
In contrast to science, many technology academics appear rarely in the world's top research publications. This applies especially to institutions outside the English-speaking world but also to some well-rated universities in Australia and elsewhere. It suggests that big US institutions such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the California Institute of Technology, Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley generate not only highly regarded papers but also many commercial innovations and spin-offs, THES said in a media statement.
