NIT Surathkal and NIT Calicut both are considered among the top NITs. According to the overall NIRF Ranking NIT Surathkal has been better than NIT Calicut. Having some friends studying in both these institutes, I can say that It totally depends on the aspect you are looking for. 

  • Both of them are NIT and hence the degree value will be the same. 
  • NIT Calicut has the better CSE department out of the two. 
  • If you look at placement records, almost 95% of the students from NIT Calicut get placed with the best companies. 
  • While almost 85% of students get placed in NIT Surathkal.
  • If looking at the academic and placement criteria then NIT Calicut is better than NIT Surathkal. 
  • The faculties are almost the same in both the institutes. 
Categories NIT Surathkal NIT Calicut
Course Fee 5.4 lakh 5.48 lakh
Highest CTC 17 LPA 14-16 LPA
Average CTC 9 LPA 6-7 LPA
Recruiting Companies Cognizant, TCS, Wipro, IBM, etc. Infosys, Capgemini, Accenture, HP, etc.

In terms of education and placement students prefer to go to NIT Calicut and hence it would be the better option of the two.

Which one should I choose: IIM Rohtak or IIM Raipur?

MJ
Manan Jain Posted On : February 16th, 2023
Head, Department of Business Management (1998–present)

All the new IIMs are currently in a similar position with one giving an edge to another in some or the other way. So you can join any. But if I was to choose one of the two i.eIIM Rohtak and IIM Raipur, I would have chosen IIM Rohtak. Some points that favor my choice are

  • The major reason why many choose Rohtak is because of the locational advantage it offers. Owing to regional industry coordination and NCR location it's better than other new IIMs
  • Among the new IIMs, it is the oldest. So the batch size is bigger and so is the alumni network.
  • Almost all the new IIMs function from a temporary campus and don’t have their own new campus. Meanwhile, IIM Rohtak is functioning from the MDU campus which is better than most campuses and has world-class facilities.
  • The institute specializes in Marketing and is a good choice for Marketing enthusiasts. Many good firms offer marketing roles.

Most of the people who are in a dilemma of choosing between these two IIMs already have offers from these. If you ask the alumni of both institutes which one is better, in 99% of cases they will claim that their institute is better. So it’s better to do individual research and make a choice based on your own inclinations and prospects.

Which is better: the Anna University College of Engineering or NIT Trichy?

K
Kishore Posted On : December 9th, 2022
BTech from Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2019)

I don’t think comparing both the colleges i.eAnna University College of Engineering and NIT Trichy is justified. This is because both are equally good in almost all the parameters. Both ranked among the top Engineering colleges in India. I have made a slight comparison based on the following factors to make a better choice:

Placements: NIT Trichy has an upper hand in placements. More core companies visit NITs in general than CEGs. This is because NIT is an established brand name.

Higher studies: CEG is slightly privileged in this aspect as it considers the TN state boards marks whereas NIT considers JEE performance. So the former is easier than the latter.

College life: College life at CEG is better because of its location. You can eat outside the hostel as many restaurants are available near the college. But NIT Trichy is far from the city so options for exploring are fewer.

Lastly, keep in mind that if you are choosing NIT then go for Trichy or Kurukshetra only. Don’t go for any other NIT leaving CEG.
