Should I join Manipal Institute of Technology or IIITD?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 8th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

My brother was in a similar dilemma when he got CS in Manipal as well as IIIT Delhi. After consulting a few friends at Manipal, he decided to go for IIIT Delhi. He stated the following reasons for choosing IIIT Delhi over MIT Manipal.

  1. Selection Criteria : Manipal selection criteria a relatively easier selection criteria than the JEE Main + CBSE criteria IIITD uses. There isn't any kind of negative marking and focus is given to the English language. Thus, the crowd may not be as talented and intellectual as IIIT Delhi.
  2. CSE : I wouldn't be exaggerating if I said IIIT Delhis CSE program is at par with the IITs. The faculty is highly qualified and the curriculum is very dynamic. The first year is branch-specific and does not have common subjects.
  3. Higher Studies : IIIT Delhi students are exposed to some of the best research and projects. The faculty's Letter of recommendation can help shape your career for the better.
  4. Placements : IIIT Delhi does not have mass recruiters and very limited non-tech companies. The overall placement stats are excellent.

If you want laid-back academics with a vibrant campus life, your choice should be Manipal whereas if you want a rigorous curriculum, then go for IIIT Delhi. It’s just a question of what your priorities are.

How is IIT Dhanbad as compared to other IITs?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : October 12th, 2023

ISM Dhanbad got the IIT tag a few years back. 

It offers pretty good placements and research facilities. The campus is well-maintained and of decent size. It is being further improved and even has its own mall now. Other than that, the college has a fully centralized air-conditioned technical library- the largest in Asia.

IIT Dhanbad is at par with the old IITs. It is the best college in India for Earth Science branches (Mining, Mining Machinery, Applied Geology, Mineral, etc). Other branches have also developed in recent years, especially since ISM has received the IIT tag.

This institute has one of the largest alumni networks in the public sector. It has an MHRD-funded faculty development centre, which is one of its kind in the entire country. It is constructing a Central Research facility within its campus, in collaboration with Australian universities, as a result of an MoU signed by PM Modi during his visit to Australia a few years back. Many centrally funded projects are also taking place within the campus.

So IIT Dhanbad is far ahead of new IITs and at par with the old ones.

Which is better, IIITM Gwalior or IIIT Lucknow?

SK
Shubham Kumar Posted On : March 20th, 2021
Studied Electronics and Communication Engineering at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad (2018)

According to most of the students studying there, both the colleges have average reviews. Though if compared IIITM Gwalior is considered better than IIIT Lucknow. As IIITM Gwalior was established at the same time when IIT Hyderabad and Bangalore were established, they have passed out many batches of students, but still have average placements below 10 LPA.

If we talk about IIT Hyderabad then it has also passed out many batches, but the average packages here are of more than 20 lakhs. IIITB has passed out several Btech + Mtech batches offering 17 to 18 LPA as average salary package.

IIT lucknow unlike the others mentioned is not that good or worth it, as it is a newer establishment, placements by significant companies are less. Try for old NITs, as they will get you better and higher salary packages.

Which is better, taking EI in SGSITS or E&TC in IET-DAVV?

SM
Sukalyan Majhi Posted On : March 30th, 2021
Studied at Institute of Engineering and Technology, DAVV

Some of the facts are listed below to help you understand which one is better in taking admission.

  1. SGSITS has its brand name. No one even knows about the institute about IET-DAVV; generally, the students who are staying outside of Madhya Pradesh.
  2. There are not enough differences in the syllabus of these two institutes. And for this reason, you have to study yourself to perform better.
  3. If you want to pursue higher studies, then seats are limited in the good colleges for instrumentation. For this reason, the candidate number is also less. Thus, you have a preference to alter your stream for higher studies. One of my friends has told me that many people studied very hard and appeared in GATE although they have studied opted EI in B.Tech.
  4. If you are looking for placement, then DAVV is the best. This institute always has better placement statistics than the other one that is SGSITS. My friend also told me that in DAVV, most of the students from E&TC, despite EI, are preferred by the recruitment companies.

In the following, the placement statistics of these two institutes are highlighted.

Criteria

If you have not so many ideas about the stream and do not aware of the institutional tag; then it is better to choose E&TC in DAVV. Besides, if you are considering these two institutes, then both are quite similar in terms of academics. However, E&TC also has many other fields in the future, so that the job opportunity might be expanded. Hence, it will be best to go for E&TC over EI.

Without second thoughts, IIEST is better than all the colleges you mentioned. The institutes that are better than IIEST are the top 7 IITs, BITS Pilani, IISc.
