Which is better, mechanical engineering in IIT Hyderabad or engineering physics at IIT Roorkee?

AB

It is difficult to determine which is better; Mechanical Engineering in IIT Hyderabad or Engineering Physics at IIT Roorkee without knowing what your expectations from the degree are and your personal preferences. Nevertheless, I am here to spill a few facts about EP at IIT Roorkee.

  • Engineering Physics at IIT Roorkee is a multidisciplinary branch, with courses from Physics, Electrical, Electronics, Mathematics, and Chemistry departments.
  • The courses included in the curriculum are quite demanding and can be really challenging for those who have little interest in Science
  • Engineering Physics provided no core placements after completion of the BTech degree.
  • Those who have an interest in a specific field of Physics can pursue research as it has great scope.
  • You can also work as a scientist in DRDO or ISRO.
  • You can also opt for fields like Artificial Intelligence, Quantum Computing, or Quantitative Finance where people with majors in CSE, Applied Maths, and Physics are preferred. 
  • Software Engineering roles are also available for EP students although it is challenging to manage the academics along with programming. 

I would recommend you go for an easier branch that has less workload so that you can focus well on coding and get placed right after BTech in IIT.

What should I join IIT Roorkee or IIT Hyderabad for MTech CSE?

RH

PhD in Computer Science, Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (IITH)

If you want to see rank-wise, of course, IIT Roorkee is the best option and you will notice a difference in a variety of parameters, but IIT Hyderabad is also a good option because it has good faculty members and offers all advanced courses. Placements are also good here. As a result, both are relatively similar.

Both are excellent Mtech programs, but IIT Roorkee has an advantage over IIT Hyderabad due to the older IIT and its superior research environment.

Which one is better- IIT Gandhinagar or IIT Hyderabad for mechanical engineering?

SA
Saef Ansari Posted On : May 16th, 2023

The worth and credibility of any department of a particular institute can be determined by the faculty pool of that concerned department. Generally,

  • Many faculty members working in different specializations mean that the students get to learn from a variety of courses. This helps you in exploring your interests better.
  • A large number of professors also imply that you will definitely find a person working in your area of interest with whom you can work on projects.

The Mechanical Engineering department of IIT Hyderabad specifically, has an extensive faculty pool of many professors that are specialties in diverse fields. IIT Gandhinagar’s Mechanical Engineering department isn't necessarily inferior, but a major part of the faculty pool comprises temporary visiting professors.

Thus for Mechanical Engineering, IIT Hyderabad is a better option than IIT Gandhinagar.

Which one is considered better, IIT Hyderabad for an M.Tech CSE (RA) or BITS Pilani for CSE?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 20th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Before I begin, let me clear the misconception that the 3-year MTech program is inferior in quality to the 2-year MTech program. Because of this false assumption, the higher ranking MTech students tend to choose the 2-year MTech programs instead of the 3-year program.

Similarity

  • In reality, the credibility of the degree you are awarded and the credits requirement of both programs are equal. 

Differences

  • The difference is that you will have to invest more time in your RA (research assistantship) duties. 3 year MTech is funded from research projects so you will be working on research projects quite early. 3 years are more than enough to get publications with the right determination and hard work. This is extremely beneficial for higher studies as well as making the most out of your skills.

Both IIT Hyderabad and IIT Bombay offer 3-year MTech programs. There may be some other IITs as well offering similar programs.

Between BITS and IIT Hyderabad, I think the latter is a better option from a research point of view. Additionally, IIT Hyderabad also has a locational advantage, better connectivity, industry, expert interactions, etc.

What kind of preparation is needed to get an admission in executive MTech in data science in IIT Hyderabad?

HR
Himika Roy Posted On : May 9th, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (2021)

Honestly speaking, Executive M.Tech or MBA in part-time or short-duration courses in newer IITs or NITs has zero effect on your career prospects and is not worth the money and time invested. Instead, it's better to invest 2 years for a full-time M.Tech in top universities like IIT Madras, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Kanpur, IIT KGP BITS, etc. Utilizing more time to prepare for six top universities will help you reach better heights career-wise. However, keep working and prepare for GATE alongside your job. In the meantime, you can clear BITS-HD, and PGEE for IIITs easily if you prepare at the GATE level. Even with an experience of 4 years, you can invest 2 years for M.Tech in top IITs and secure a good IT job in tech giants like Google, Amazon, McKinsey, etc. 

It's better to consider other options and leave Executive MTech as the last option when all doors are closed.
