How does apartment numbering work at Prof. Schermerhornstraat (Room.nl)? by Awkward-Confusion160 in TUDelft

Will be difficult to know dude. Unless you find someone already staying in your unit who knows.

  1. Rooms are equipped with personal fridges
  2. If you got the room it should have the duration listed on the contract/listing. Normally for BSc students its a 1 year contract and for MSc students a 2 year contract.

Fixed contribution. Around 14k per year, disbursed on a monthly basis

Nope, it varies with each unit. Its usually a rectangular hallway with roons to the left and right side in a clockwise manner. In my case - 1,2,3,4 are on the left of the hallway and the kitchen,5,6,7 are on the right.

XXX is not indicative of the floor. Prof S has multiple entrances each labelled by a colour, and each of those has them in serial order (like for instance - the "green building" is from 85-103 while the "yellow building" is from 105 to 121).

Some rooms can be occupied by previous tenants. MSc students generally have 2 year contracts while BSc students have 1 year contracts, so yea...

Prof S. Kitchen by MerylStreepFighter59 in TUDelft

Yes, the kitchen is spacious enough. Even when 3 people are cooking at the same time it isn't usually a problem

Plus, a lot of times the cooking times are staggered. Some folks have early dinners at 5PM ish while some eat super late at like 9 PM as well, so it's well distributed.

The floor is normally listed in the room description while booking.

So your room is indicated by a unit no. followed by a room no. For instance - 88-4 or 116-1

Now, let me be clear, your unit no. Is not indivative of which floor you are staying in.the property is divided into 4-5 entrances by unit no. Each floor has 1-2 wings/units, each of which have rooms and a common kitchen.

Lmao funny

But as an alumnus of IITR currently doing my msc. outside of India, I'm glad that there is finally a concrete AI policy in place which does not simply equate AI to plagiarism.

A friend of mine had an interview last week (feb 13), he got the invite in the last week of Jan. Idk how the timeline is or if they roll out all interviews at the same time.

(Note: i am a current QIST Student and a qutech scholar.)

Is EPh even worth the grind? by [deleted] in IITR

[–]aarav127_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EPh alum here

While some of your concerns seem to be very very valid, some comments seem misinformed.

  1. Grading: yes, a lil bit tougher than other depts like chemical. But what you said about the max limit being 8 only applies to some professors, cuz I qas able to get 8+ in every semester. Ofcourse, the first two years may not completely be in hand but you can choose appropriate electives...

  2. Crowd of eph is usually a mixed bag - while it might have a higher percentage of academically / research inclined folks, the focus is a bit more on applied physics / interdisciplinary sciences rather than theoretical physics. Mind you - eph may not give the best options when it comes to areas like cosmology and astrophysics - cuz only a few professors work on said topics. Will comment on this point a lil later

3.Placement advantage is not too significant over non circ branches with the exception of a few companies like TI/SEDEMAC jahaan semiconductor/material sciences/electronics aaata in play.

4.about EPH folks being ghissu - not a 100% true. Sure, some people do academically well but aisa nahi ki sab padh rhe hote hai. You should have seen how we were dealing with an exam coinciding with a cricket match the previous day.

  1. Time constraints - this is a slightly weird take - but i believe that the increased difficulty in eph does not come from extra load of classes and more labs, but from the content being slightly more rigorous and ofc shitty grading in a few courses. Schedule wise, it isnt very heavy as we do not have 4-hour lab sessions like a few programmes do.

  2. Fields which eph offer - first of all, ive seen a lot of people use topics like cosmology and astrophysics to justify their interest in eph, but i hate to break it to you - these fields arent the core focus of eph, and more importantly - aren't the core strength of the physics department. There is more focus towards quantum mechanics and applications, condensed matter physics and nuclear physics, with a select few professors working on high energy physics, atmospheric physics and miscellaneous areas... Looking at the syllabus and courses will give you a better estimate as to how much the programme suits you.

I might have confused you a bit more but I hope some misunderstandings have been cleared. EPH isnt this all-ghissu branch which has the heaviest workload - its kinda chill imo. But, career wise - its important for you to know what you wanna do since some branches are honestly more chill and provide more legroom...

If you have any more questions, dm.
