Which is a better option: CSE at IIIT Hyderabad or CSE at top NITs like Warangal, Trichy, and MNNIT?

A
Admin Posted On : May 31st, 2024

CSE at top NITs is a far better option. Among the NITS, I would suggest you choose NIT Trichy. The CSE department of NIT Trichy is better than other NITs. The department is old and the curriculum is at par with the top IITs. The faculty is experienced and will guide you throughout the four years of your college. You will get hands-on learning because of the multiple practical projects that are given to the students. The campus of NIT Trichy is just as amazing. You will have hostel facilities as well. Each year the top companies visit our college to recruit the students. The CSE department is one of the departments that get the highest packages. Last year the average package in the CSE departments was 27.27 LPA.

How is NIT Agartala in terms of academics, hostels, facilities, studies and placements?

SM
Spandita Majumder Posted On : September 18th, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Agartala (2019)

NIT Agartala is quite old and was established in 1965 as Tripura Engineering College. As a student of this institution, here are my honest reviews of it-

  • Academics- The college offers average academics, but research facilities are lacking. But like other central government colleges, it receives good funding. The faculty is below average and students mostly depend on self-study. CSE, ECE, EE, ME, and CIVIL are good branches that you can opt for at this institution. The curriculum is at par with top institutions. 
  • Hostels and Facilities- The facilities are top-notch. Libraries are well-maintained with one being a completely digital library. Workshops and labs are well-equipped and have virtual class facilities. NITA hosts a supercomputer, and ISRO established an innovation incubation centre on campus. The college has good wifi and sports facilities. The hostels are quite good but the mess food is below average.
  • Location and Connectivity- Agartala is a developed but remote city. Air is the main means of connectivity because rail connectivity is quite poor. NITA is in a remote area, 23 kilometers away from the city, but buses, autos and vans are available. 
  • Placement- CSE placements are average, but this is not the case with other branches. Because of its remote location, the college is visited by few companies. IT companies like Infosys, IBM, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, etc. visit for mass recruitments. Product-based IT companies like Samsung, Oracle, Info Edge, etc. also hire students. Non-IT companies like MuSigma, L&T, Kirloskar, Vedanta, etc. are also seen during the placement season. PSUs visit towards the end of the placement season. Just the top students can expect to be offered placements. 

Overall, NIT Agartala is a good college with low placements. Based on this information, you can decide whether or not to opt for it.

How easy is it to change branch in IIT Kharagpur?

NG
Nikhil Goal Posted On : March 22nd, 2023
Mechanical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP)

My cousin had got a branch change from Mechanical engineering to Electronics engineering (ECE). He shared his experience with me of how easy it was to get a branch change.

The primary and most important thing is to be regular and give equal attention to all subjects. You have to focus on your studies only and not let any distractions take the better of you. Be firm on your goal and give up all time-wasting activities.

You need to be rightly motivated and determined to achieve these goals. Not losing hope is the key as one or two exams do not define you. You will get ample opportunities to prove yourself so just keep working hard.

My cousin scored below average in the middle of the 2nd semester. However, she got this sudden motivation and studied hard and was able to score an overall CGPA of 9.64. She studied consistently every day and was able to change her branch eventually.

How did IIT Ropar suddenly beat the top 7 IITs and came to the first position?

DK
Deepesh Khanna Posted On : August 2nd, 2023
Studied B.Tech CSE from Indian Institute of Technology Ropar (2023)

The former Director of IIT Ropar, Mr. SK Das is very visionary. Sir had hired during his time, very qualified faculty for IIT Ropar. In this institution, the student-teacher ratio 9:1 is appropriate for a healthy teaching environment and ample class interaction. Also, the research facilities and focus on research is truly unbeatable. 

IIT Ropar has signed numerous MoUs with foreign universities for faculty, research collaboration, and student exchange. It has a state-of-the-art infrastructure. 

The older IITs have a strong alumni network, however, that is not taken into consideration for rankings.

There are numerous rankings and each uses different parameters to rank institutions. One should be accepted if a newer institution ranks higher than an old established one. 

The older IITs are mentors to the newer ones and thus, the success of IIT Ropar should be celebrated as an achievement for all.

How is Lovely Professional University for Engineering?

A
Admin Posted On : May 4th, 2024

My sister completed her BTech ECE from LPU in 2018. She was placed in BSH Bosch Home Appliance in the 3rd year of BTech and she didn't have to study for the 4th year as she got placed early and went for her training.

From her experience, LPU is quite good. I will mention the points in favour of her statement:

1. LPU Placements

Top MNCs and organizations like Capgemini, Tech Mahindra, and Cognizant Technology have visited the LPU campus for placement in the recent years. Students got placed at CTCs of stirking INR 3 crore (Yasir M.) and INR 1 crore, the highest package is INR 42 LPA. 

One thing she highlighted was the fact that LPU focused on placement assistance and mentoring. They take soft skills and training classes before the placement season. 

2. Internships and Industry Immersion

University offers ‘industry immersion’ facility to the students. LPU has collaborated with major companies and students have gained the experience and exposure by interning in companies like ISRO, Infosys, Microsoft, Cognizant and many more.

3. Campus Facilities

The security measures are strict in the campus. The residential facilities are also good.

4. Academics and Curriculum

Students get to work on live industry-relevant projects. The additional lectures and workshops help students enhance their existing knowledge.

What is the reason behind the low rank of NIT Warangal and NIT Calicut in MHRD, NIRF ranking?

Sapna Malik updated Posted On : February 27th, 2024

MHRD ranks colleges on the basis of various aspects besides academics. One of them is infrastructure. Unfortunately, NIT Calicut has a poor infrastructure in comparison to other engineering colleges. Weak administrative measures are to blame for this. The college authorities are not utilizing the funds provided by the central government to the fullest extent. 

We can only hope that the infrastructure and other facilities at NIT Calicut improve. If this happens, the rankings of NITC will also improve.

Some more details about the University are

  • Infrastructure: The college has decent infrastructural facilities with great importance to sports and extracurricular activities
  • Academics: Honestly, this is where the Institute lacks. The staff delivers robotic knowledge without any lively classroom discussions making the learning experience monotonous.
  • Placements: The placement cell of the college works pretty hard to maintain a decent placement scenario and students with good academic performance usually get good packages. 
  • ROI: Another aspect I feel one should consider is the ROI which is low in case of SRM. The fees are extremely high in comparison to the academic standards but the surety of placements makes people choose it anyway.
  • Campus Life: You get to experience amazing college life with lots of creative activities and new things to learn.

Ultimately it’s you who decides whether a certain college is right for you or not, so do your part of the research and make a wise decision.

Which one is better for CSE: IIT Patna, IIT Mandi, IIT Jodhpur, IIT Bhubaneswar or IIT(ISM), Dhanbad?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : August 2nd, 2023

I am a CSE student at IIT Patna and I will try to justify why choosing IIT Patna for your

CSE is a good decision. Don’t base your choice on how old an institution is. 

All the new IITs like IIT Patna or IIT Jodhpur are doing exceptionally well, some are even competing against the old IITs. IIT Patna has a great campus and it has achieved tremendous success in a short span of time. 

CSE department has a learned and supportive faculty and great seniors. The teams have always performed exceptionally well in the ACM-ICPC and have even made it to the world finals. A good number of students clear the  GSoC( Google Summer of Code). 

NJACK club organizes tutorial classes and workshops on Web development, App development, Android, etc. It also organizes competitions like Capture the Flag, NWoC-an open source coding event, and other competitions throughout the year.

Other interdisciplinary teams which you can join are ROBOCON, Supra BAJA, HPVC etc. 

CSE alums at IIT Patna have made successful startups and others are working in good positions at top MNCs. Overall, the coding culture over here is excellent.

The placements for the CSE department are quite impressive. For 2023 placements, the highest package stood at INR 82.05 LPA. The average package stood at INR 35.57 LPA and the median package stood at INR 32.85 LPA. 98.65% of students from the CSE branch were placed.

In the end, whether you choose IIT Jodhpur, IIT Mandi, IIT Patna, or any other institution, the choice should be based on your personal preference. However, I would suggest you choose IIT Patna CSE as I am quite satisfied with my choice.

My brother recently graduated from IMT Hyderabad and thoroughly enjoyed hai college life there which gave him a plethora of memories. IMT Hyderabad MBA is a highly regarded program and is comparable to other B Schools. Here are a few reasons why he chose it over other reputed B Schools in the country.

  • The institute is located in a remote area away from the hustle and bustle of city life so you get to experience a peaceful college life
  • IMT Hyderabad faculty pool is one of the best in the country and engravings the concepts in you so well that makes learning an interesting job.
  • The accommodation facilities are also great and all basic amenities are provided to the students.
  • The institute focuses on holistic development of its students so academics and extracurriculars are given equal importance.
  • IMT Hyderabad offers the right platform to showcase your talents and skills to the recruiters but does not guarantee placements because it all depends on your performance in the interviews.

So bear in mind that no matter how good an institute is, your career and placements depend on your skills and performance. The institute just renders you a platform and does not guarantee the result.
