2008 Orissa JEE (OJEE) Counseling by BPUT possibly from July 11th: Sambada

From http://orissasambad.com/newsdetails.php?section_id=9 in Oriya.

It basically says that the counseling date of July 11th is not final but most likely. Its not final because the BPUT VC is out of town. The final date will be announced when he gets back on June 22nd. The counseling will start with the lateral entry students.

Orissa JEE 2008 (BPUT JEE 2008) result out! Where can I get a seat with my rank?

Most of you already know your result. But just in case the result is available at http://www.jeeorissa.com/jee_result.asp.

Now you will be wondering what you can get with your ranks. Its very hard to answer that question. You can get some idea from last years counseling data. (See https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1157 for a ranking of Orissa engineering colleges.)

I had compiled the following last year for the GE category. (See https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/508) That may give you some idea. But there are no guarantees and I do not have information on the other categories.

This is a continuation of our earlier effort. Following are the branches and colleges that no longer have any GE seats. On the side we mention in which counseling the seats got filled up and what are left. [Please note that when we mention that a certain branch got filled up in the range, say, 800-1200 that means it got filled in some rank in between that. It could have been filled up in rank 801 or rank 1200. I just don’t have the data to make that distinction.]

Ranking of engineering colleges in Orissa

(Update on June 17 2008:  For guidance on what you can get with your Orissa JEE rank in 2008, please see https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1185 I do not have more information than that.)

The following is from our earlier post titled: "2007 ranking of Orissa Engineering colleges that participated in BPUT counseling – solely based on student preferences."

Continuing with our methodology, and solely based on the student preferences in the GE (general) category,  we develop a ranking below. Our methodology is we compare when the various branches of the colleges get finished.  For example below when we write CET (8, 8, 12, 12, 16) it means that two of the CET branches were all finished in the GE category by the ranks 800, two by 1200 and one by 1600. We will use the first three numbers unless it becomes necessary to go beyond that.

• 1. UCE Burla (8,8,12,12,16)
• 1. CET Bhubaneswar  (8,8,12,12,16)
• 2. ITER Bhubaneswar (16,16,16)
• 3. Silicon Bhubaneswar (16, 20, 20)
• 4. CV Raman Bhubaneswar (20,24,28)
• 5. NIST Berhampur (24, 24, 28)
• 6. GITA  Bhubaneswar(28,28,32)
• 7. Orissa Eng College Bhubaneswar (28, 28, 36)
• 7. IGIT Sarang (20,28,45)
• 8. College of Eng Bhubaneswar (36,36,41)
• 9. Gandhi Eng College Bhubaneswar (36,41,45)
• 10. Krupajala Bhubaneswar (45,45,45)
• 10. Trident Bhuabneswar (41, 45, 50)
• 11. East Bhubaneswar (45,55,66)
• 11. Gandhi Inst for Tech Bhubaneswar (50,50,60)
• 11. GIET Gunupur (50,50,60)
• 12. Orissa school of mining eng Keonjhar (45, 55, 117)
• 13. NMIET Bhubaneswar (66, 72, 78)
• 14. DRIEMS Dhenkanala(72,72,100)
• 15. Konark Bhubaneswar (78, 78, 117)
• 15. Koustuva Bhubaneswar (78, 100, 100)
• 15. Mahavir Bhubaneswar (78, 84, 100)
• 15. Synergy Dhenkanal (78, 84, 100)
• 16. Nalanda Bhubaneswar (84, 84, 100)
• 17. Rajdhani Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 100)
• 18. Roland Berhampur (84,100, 108)
• 19. Techno Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 117)
• 19. Padmanav Rourkela (100,100,100)
• 20. Ajay Binay Cuttack (100,100,117)
• 21. Ghanashyam Hemalata  Puri(100,108,136)
• 22. Jagannath Cuttack (108,117,147)
• 22. Bhadrakh (117,117, 136)
• 23. JITM Parlakhemundi (117,126,147)
• 24. Inst of Adv Rayagada (117,136,159)
• 24. Sanjay Memorial Berhampur (117,147,159)
• 24. Purushottam Rourkela (126,126,136)
• 26. Balasore (136,136,159)
• 27. Seemanta Mayurbhanj (159, 159, 186)
• 28. Padmashree Baragarh (172,172,200)
• 29. Majighariani Rayagada (172,200,200)
• 30. Satyasai Balasore (159, 172, 999)
• 31. Samanta Chandra Sekhar Koraput (186,999,999)
• 32. Gopal Krishna Jeypore (999,999,999)

The colleges that are missing from the above are NIT Rourkela, and KIIT. I consider NIT Rourkela to currently be the best in Orissa. I would slot KIIT around ITER and Silicon.

Outlook for 2008-2009:

Now that ITER’s parent organization Siksha O Anusandhan has become a deemed university, ITER may opt out of Orissa JEE and/or 2008 BPUT counseling.

In 2008 and 2009 there would be several new colleges.

Tathya.in: BPUT graduate requirements changed; old year back system removed

Following is from Tathya.in.

Accordingly it was decided that each student will have to receive 6 Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) out of 10 to be eligible to pass the B.Tech degree.

However in the first year itself the student has to receive 4.5 CGPA, so that he/she can be promoted.

But by the end of the course he will have to get 6 CGPA to receive the degree.

Though B.Tech program is for 4 years but a student will be allowed 7 years time for clearance of the degree.

The student, who will be enrolled in 2008-09, if fails consecutively in 3 semesters will be out of the university, said a spokesman of BPUT.

It was decided to set up a Faculty Training Institute to train the faculty members of the constituent colleges.

The proposed system is probably similar to the system followed at IITs. The year back system is what is followed at most colleges in the rest of the country. In the US universities there is no year back system. However there are pre-requsites for classes.  So if subject A is a prerequisite for subject B then one can not normally take B before he/she has passed A. However, the courses that are prerequisites for other courses and are in the critical path to graduation are offered every semester.

One question to the readers: If a student fails in a course in a semetser and takes the exam for that course the next semester, what happens to the internal marks. Does he/she have a chance to improve them? How?

The engineering and MBA system in Karnataka: lessons for BPUT

An article in Deccan Herald elaborates on the practice that is being followed at the various engineering colleges and MBA institutions and their technical university. I do not know the detailed process at BPUT, but it seems BPUT is stricter in some ways. Following are some differences that I came across between the Karnataka system and BPUT.

• According to the above mentioned article In Karnataka admission under management quota is done by individual colleges making up their own merit list. Under BPUT, this year admission to management quota is also through common counseling and one has to take the Orissa JEE. BPUT is even having a second JEE so that the leftover seats in the colleges can get filled.
• In Orissa many of the colleges do not have heavy political connections.

Some questions that I hope some students in engineering colleges can answer are as follows:

• How does the internal system of marks work in Orissa engineering colleges under BPUT?
• How good or bad is the grading?

Dear Readers: Please make other comparisons.

Private Engineering Colleges restrict student movement: Ad in Samaja

Orissa JEE counseling drags on further

Following are excerpts from a New Indian Express report.

… the Orissa High Court on Monday directed the State Government to initiate fresh centralised counselling for filling up the seats in the different professional colleges and complete the entire exercise in two weeks.

The single-judge bench of Justice AS Naidu, however, asked the Government and the JEE authorities to declare the total number of seats available in different colleges first and within three days. Students already taken admission would be allowed to exercise their option to switch to available seats of their choice in preferred colleges first and they have to be fixed by JEE in three days after declaration of total seats and this should be followed by the fresh counselling.

The ruling came in response to a batch of writ petitions filed by different college bodies and the Orissa Private Engineering College Association praying for initiation of steps to fill up the seats in the institutions. They submitted that while counselling was on the AICTE granted approval for establishment of new colleges with a combined intake capacity of 240 in each discipline and enhanced seats in different old colleges.

As per norms, 30 percent of the seats were to be filled up by management and AIEEE qualified students by equal share. The rest was to be filled up by JEE qualified students. But despite assurances, the authorities have taken no steps towards filling up the added and enhanced seats.

The petitioners had submitted that AICTE approval was for two years only and the colleges would sustain huge financial loss along with loss of image topped by threat of withdrawal of approval by AICTE during scrutiny. The State Government had earlier and even last year allowed admissions way into October in some institutes but this time it is unyielding, they alleged.

Considering the submissions, the Court observed that discrimination was writ large in the action of authorities and debarred them from taking a different stand this year while allowing admissions to enhanced seats last year.

So as to not cause any prejudice to the students who had already taken admission in different colleges, Justice Naidu said they should be given the chance first to exercise options in seeking switches to colleges or disciplines of their choice.
