How is the placement at the MNNIT in Allahabad for an MTech CS student?
My brother has completed his M.Tech from MNNIT Allahabad and according to his experience, this institute lives up to the expectations in terms of placement. Here’s why:
- If you have done enough justice to your studies during these 2 years of M.Tech, then the rest is assured. Although no specific CTC can be guaranteed, you will ultimately land a good job.

What should I know about MTech life at IISc, Bangalore?
The life of an MTech student at IISc is pretty busy and challenging. Students are given broad exposure to a wide variety of disciplines. The coursework is rigorous and helps you become proficient in a particular discipline through thesis research. My sister completed her ME in Microelectronic Systems from IISc last year and shared her experience of the same.
The first semester was very challenging and tiring as she had to complete 36 credits in all. She was advised to complete 5 credits in the first semester which wasn’t easy as most courses have assignments and projects.
The curriculum at IISc is flexible and students are given freedom in course choice. So apart from the core courses, students can take courses from any department be it Genetics, Molecular Biology, or Physics.
The students are assigned research advisors by the end of the first semester so they have to get in the good books of the faculty members they wish to work under.
The campus is serene with the best amenities one could ask for. The sports facilities are also great including TT, Soccer, Cricket, Hockey, Swimming, etc. The food served is of good quality and midnight cravings are catered to by coffee shops and fresh fruit juice stalls operate really late into the night to serve the late-night cravings of the graduate students.
Her overall experience as an MTech student at IISc Bangalore was challenging and rewarding at the same time.
How is Mtech cse at NIT Delhi and how are placements there?
Truth be told, NIT Delhi is mainly known for its BTech program only and its MTech program is relatively new so it lacks credibility. The faculty of M.Tech. CSE is well qualified but has little or no practical experience and the computer labs have limited access to software. Although the overall environment is conducive to studying, academics at NIT Delhi are more of a personal affair. You will have to rely on your own and not on the professors for studies. The college provides the resources necessary for your thesis and project work but you have to work alone. You will also be required to do some lab work because the MTech students are also the lab assistants of juniors, instructing them how to deal with different software languages or software.
M.Tech CSE students of NIT Delhi usually receive offers from IT companies, mostly coding. However, most IT companies don’t allow Mtech students to sit for placements. Only a few allow Mtech CSE students to sit for Pre Placement Talk (PPT) and placement tests. But the M.Tech. students are almost offered the same role and packages as B.Tech. graduate in the same company. Overall, the placement scenario isn't very great, but most students end up with a decent job.
Which one would be a better choice, in terms of career, if one has the option to pursue a B.Tech/M.Tech in CSE from either the NITs/BITS or IIIT Hyderabad?
One of my friends was in a similar dilemma when he had to choose between NIT, BITS Pilani, and IIIT Hyderabad. Visiting the NITs he found out about their poor infrastructure so removed it from his preference list. Confused between BITS and IIIT he decided to consult his cousin in BITS and eventually decided to go for it. Today, he claims that choosing BITS was one of the wisest decisions of his life. He stated his entire experience that I have summarised below in points
- BITS Pilani focuses on the holistic development of its students and its wide range of clubs, departments, disciplinary associations, and regional associations develop you as a person and not just as an engineer.
- The institute instills a sense of responsibility within you and you become an emphatic part of the society.
- BITS Pilani gives you the chance to work on interdisciplinary projects with mechanical and electrical engineering students,
- Here you will see an active entrepreneurship culture and the professors not only motivate but also assist the students in the same.
- The research culture is another prominent feature and my friend won several international accolades.
- You will be surprised to know that BITS is the only private Indian university that is working on sensitive military projects.
- The BITS tag does help in securing good packages but the rest of the journey depends on your efforts, performance, practical experience, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
So, every institute be it IIIT Hyderabad, BITS Pilani or NIT Trichy offers its own kind of opportunities, culture, and resources. It depends on you, how much you are willing to make the most out of them.
