Lives in Bangalore

We need to consider a number of factors before choosing one college from DTU, NSUT, IIIT Delhi, IIT Bangalore, IIIT Allahabad, and NITs. 

  • Quality of education: In terms of academics, IIIT Delhi serves the best. The teachers are genuinely interested in teaching and encouraging students to research work. In DTU and NSUT students are expected to cope with the curriculum on their own.
  • Campus life: DTU offers the best resources and campus life to its students followed by NSUT and IIIT Delhi
  • Peer group: You will find the best peer group that is passionate about CS at IIIT Delhi and NSUT. 
  • Placements: This aspect is quite arguable because there is the general scenario as well as the statistics to consider. Generally, DTU fares better than NSUT and IIIT Delhi but if you look at the statistics, IIIT Delhi is the best among these colleges followed by NSUT and DTU. 
  • Brand Name and Alumni: In this aspect, DTU is the clear winner. 
  • Research Culture : IIIT Delhi has more faculty that are inclined towards research. The overall ambiance is conducive to cutting-edge research and students have to do research as a part of the curriculum. IIIT Delhi is followed by NSUT and DTU.

What is the true ranking of NITs and IIITs for CSE in all respects?

RY
Rashi Yadav Posted On : March 16th, 2021
Studies at Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior

My friend got a rank of 13471 in JEE-Main 2019 and after a lot of website research and references from other people; he has come up with the top 10 rankings for 2021:

  1. IIIT Hyderabad: It has the best faculty for CSE with very hectic college life and rigorous curriculum. Placements are very good here and can be easily compared to those at the top 6 IITs, BITS Pilani, and a tad better than NIT Trichy. 
  2. NIT Trichy: Undoubtedly the best NIT which is a class apart from the rest. The administration is not up to the mark, but you’ll learn to manage on your own. Also, it is supposedly better than most IITs bearing the top 9.
  3. NIT Surathkal: You will get really good placements and the exciting part is that the college has a personal beach so you can enjoy it to some extent.
  4. NIT Warangal: The placements are quite at par with NIT Surathkal but except for the beaches.
  5. NIT Allahabad: You won’t get a happening college life or good infrastructure there but the placements are quite good. The Alumni base of the institute is also decent.
  6. IIIT Allahabad: The placements are a bit better than NIT Allahabad, but are ranked lower due to its reputation and college life.
  7. IIIT Delhi: You can get a good potential for research especially if you belong to the A.I domain. The branches offered are also quite unique (some similarity to those offered at IIT J, IIT H, or BITS) which will really help you to apply abroad for research.
  8. NIT Jaipur: The placements are okay and it is one of the top NITs. Although if you go get in the CS branch then you’ll surely get somewhat better placements than your counterparts.
  9. IIIT Bangalore: The placements are very good here but it is ranked so low because it only offers 5-year programs. The fee is also much greater in comparison to the NITs.
  10. NIT Rourkela: One of the oldest colleges and finds its reputation due to the NIT tag. The alumni base and the placements are all good here.

Apart from the top 10, here are is the ranking for the remaining ones:

NIT Kurukshetra> IIIT Gwalior> NIT Hamirpur> NIT Surat> NIT Jalandhar

To sum up, every college comes with its own pros and cons. Thus, setting up your preferences might help you get a clearer opinion whether you want excellent placement, campus facilities, college life or a little bit of all.

Which is better academically (preferably CSE and ECE branch), NIT-Manipur, NIT-Meghalaya, NIT-Sikkim, NIT-Nagaland, or Tezpur University?

CD
Charitra Das Posted On : May 14th, 2021
Studied Ph.D. in CSE from NIT Sikkim

If your need is a job right after graduation, then NITs certainly are good alternatives. In this scenario, NIT Meghalaya & Nagaland would be safer. But don't expect dream companies on-campus placements. The university of Tezpur can also offer you few IT placements, but TU placements are not comparable to the NITs.

TU will be the best choice amongst those listed if you want to learn, explore, study ECE, CSE fields. The University of Tezpur has great ECE & CSE departments. Both departments are over ten years old. In comparison with NIT-Silchar, TU's CSE faculty & labs better. TU has a strong research orientation, since many science and engineering departments exist, which is not the case for all the NITs listed. 

So, if you want placement, go for the NITs. If you want to learn and explore your field then TU is definitely the better choice.
