Hi everyone,

I'm a final-year B.Tech CSE student and I'm looking for a minor project idea that I can later extend into my major project.

I don't want to build the usual projects like a Library Management System or Student Management System. I'm looking for something unique, practical, and industry-relevant that can help strengthen my resume and improve my chances during placements.

I'm interested in areas like AI/ML, Cybersecurity, Data Analytics, Web Development, Cloud, or anything that's currently in demand.

If you were in my position, what project would you choose in 2026 that has real-world value and can be expanded into a full-fledged major project?

It would be great if you could also explain:

Why you recommend it

The tech stack

How it can be expanded for a major project

Whether recruiters would find it impressive

Thanks in advance! 😊

Hi everyone,

I am currently balancing a dual degree (BTech CSE + IITM BS in Data Science). Due to my heavy core coursework this semester, I am looking for 2 NPTEL courses (3 or 4 credits each) that have a manageable workload.

1. Our college forces us to do NPTEL; now I have done 3 courses so far. I want to do 2 courses this semester. I want courses that are easy to score because:
2. I want to get 3-4 credits per course
3. I want to get the money back, so 60% can be easily scored without extra effort.
4. I am already doing 2 degrees; I have many things on my plate, so I don't want to struggle with another pressure. I just want the final exam to be easy, assignment based or PYQ-based. Like, last time Java questions came totally from PYQs and assignments, so I scored 93%.

Please suggest some courses from your expertise. Thanks

So let me explain my situation i am cse(iot) student currently taking admission on btech collage year2026 first year, my collage is one of worst kind ,it has recently opend like in 2018 and is situated in small town of bihar, the availability from my home town to my collage sucks , i really don't like this collage but my jee rank is 437000 which is worst that my collage so i am thinking about starting preparation of gate cse but i have little to non information about what to do and where to start my preperarion or which online batch should i buy.

Anyone who is reading this i really need your guidance. I prepared for JEE for 3 years with the dream of getting into an IIT/NIT. Last year I scored 96.59 percentile but took a drop for IIT. This year I got 92.31 percentile, and now I'm confused about my future.

My family wants me to do B.Sc. along with government exam preparation, but I want to pursue B.Tech in CSE from a college I can get through my JEE score. At the same time, I'm scared because of AI and the layoffs happening in tech companies.

I'm confused between these options:

• B.Sc. + Government exam preparation

• B.Tech in CSE

• One more drop for NIT

I also lost both of my parents 8 years ago, so I don't really have anyone to guide me. That's why I'm asking for your honest advice.

One last question: Does age matter in campus placements? I'm 20 years old, and I'm worried whether my age or drop years will affect my opportunities.

Please guide me. It would mean a lot.

Thank you.

qualifications : 12th done in 2025, took 1 year drop for JEE.

Now I got two colleges options.

NIT Raipur metallurgy and IIIT naya Raipur.

In terms subject interest, for me it's ECE > Meta.

BUT...

CONS of IIIT naya Raipur:

(Indian International institute of info. Technology)

0 placements for btech ECE (no ece companies visited)

total on campus placement was 48 out of 179 students ( for cse and dsai)

most ece grads go for mtech there. But if i later don't want to do mtech I'll be jobless (probably).

2015 institute, alumini network weak.

it's NOT a standard iiit , it's state funded.

This iiit tag will NOT help in off campus placement (non core) , makes it Difficult to land on a job after graduation.

6) will Cost me approx 14Lakh for college (including everything)

So my only option will be to do GATE, and if that's the end goal, I can prepare for it from studying in any tier 3 College with half the Fees.

In NIT RAIPUR Metallurgy.

Subject may not be my interest BUT.

Off campus placements will be easier.

more free time to up skill non core

More companies visit, more chance.

Strong alumini Network, useful for Off campus placement.

NIT tag, better peer group.

Safety net of a core job with avg 9-10 lpa in psu with less competition in GATE.

Why is the servo under powered? I am using a power supply set to 9V and it can supply up to 10A.

Looking for final-year students or recent graduates who are having a tough time breaking into tech.

A friend and I are running an affordable interview prep and job search program. We've already helped 2 students land software roles, and we're now opening up a few more spots.

We're keeping it very low-cost because we're focused on helping more people get their foot in the door in this god awful market, not selling an expensive bootcamp.

If you're interested or just want to know what it includes, leave a comment or send me a DM. Happy to answer any questions because I know how intimidating it is to try to put yourself out there. Heres one of the people we were able to help.

I am a student of Btech 7th semester and looking for advice to what to do in this situation.

Recently i received an offer letter for the TCS digital role through NQT. Before this i also got a selection confirmation for the Infosys DSE role through my university's TPO (No offer letter yet).

I am confused about what to do in this situation and looking for insights from people either already working there or has faced similar situation?

• Which role would you prefer and why?
• What are the internal upgrade opportunities available in each of these companies?
• What about the work culture and learning opportunity?
