You buy "Engineering Drawing " by and BHAT & practice construction of engineering curves like : ellipse, parabola, hyperbola, cycloid, epicycloid and hypocycloid.
Read about how to draw "plan", "elevation "&" end view" of simple three dimensional objects like:
sphere,
cuboid,
cylinder,
cone,
rectangular parellelopiped,
regular tetrahedron,
regular octohedron, &
other regular objects used in engineering.
I think this will keep you busy for a month. If you still find time, study projection of straight lines & their drawings when they(st.lines) are in:
Horizontal plane ( parallel)
Vertical plane (parallel)
Horizontal plane (vertical)
Vertical plane (vertical)
Horizontal plane (inclined)
Vertical plane (inclined)
All the best for your engineering.

At NMIMS, you will get ample opportunities, be it working for a big time MNC, or be it an entrepreneurial journey, provided you grab them with both hands.
The quality of the curriculum and the faculty is top-notch. No compromise on that.
Now coming to placements, I will give you the true picture. Yes, you guessed it right, the placements arent what are shown in their placement reports.
Before describing placements, I would like to mention that I wasnt the one who didnt get placed (in fact, I got placed in Deloitte, and yes Im no CA); so please bear in mind while reading this that this aint my frustration, its the actual scenario out there.
A hell lot of companies visited the campus, thanks to the brand name of NMIMS.
Having said that, there was a stiff competition too, as there was an intake of 240(BBA)+60(B.Com) students out of which 120 odd students in total opted to register for placements.
But the pay packages offered were rather poor, if not dismal, and not even close to what the website states. The only exception were 3 students, 2 of which got into an investment bank (9lpa each) and the other 1 got around 4.5lpa
Rest all the placed students got 3lpa (by Deloitte which hired 17 students of our batch) or even less than that.
Hope it helps. Cheers.
PS. The knowledge that I gained in those 3 years did help me in passing CFA level-1 this year.

Eligibility for admission:

2) A First Class or 60% marks (55% marks for SC/ST) in Master's degree in Science / Commerce / Graduate Degree in Engineering / Technology will be considered for research areas consistent with the academic background and special interests of the applicant, OR
3) An M.Phil degree in any of the six disciplines (pertaining to the research areas listed below) or in any allied subjects, or an M.Phil in Humanities and Social Sciences with specialization in Planning and Development awarded by nit Bombay.
A minimum of 2 years of professional work experience for Sponsored or External Category (EX) and Self Financing Category (SF) is mandatory.

The academic session of IIIT Sonepat started from its temporary campus at National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra from last year
Advantages
You get NIT Kurukshetra at a much lower rank and get taught by their faculty. This year It started at 9k and closed at 20k for CS, other branches (IT, ECE) closed at 25k for General Category.
There are only 30 seats in each branch, so no need to worry about placements. As there are only 14 seats for general category, I expect the closing rank of CS this year to be at about 12k for general category as you cannot get CS branch at that rank at any good college you should probably opt for this one
You get the same treatment from all the other students as NIT students, nothing is biased.
IIIT Sonepat recently was announced to be an Institute of National Importance, like NIT Kurukshetra.
No state quota
Benefits of NIT Kurukshetra (Obviously).
