All of the mentioned branches are core branches and are somehow interlinked by areas like automobiles, structures, and circuits. If you are eligible for all of these then it's better to sort your preferences now.

You should take time and decide which one among them holds your interest the most. This is quite important because your passion and interest will impact these 4 years and your career too. However, in case you share an equal interest for all the three branches, then mechanical is the best choice. Here’s why:

  • Mechanical engineering is one of the best branches not only in NIT Raipur but in all the NITs of India too.
  • The faculty of the mechanical department is quite good.
  • The branch is also best in terms of placement and opportunities both in and out of campus.

The following table shows the placements statistics for Mechanical Engineering at NIT Raipur:

GJ
Gagan Jain Posted On : April 21st, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology Durgapur

CS certainly holds more importance compared to IT in all the reputed engineering institutes irrespective of everything else.

IT at NIT Raipur is a good enough option to choose especially because of its HOD. He is very sincere and too much dedicated to the students and their well-being. Unlike many other departments and colleges of our country, he takes a special interest and personally looks into every student’s growth and academic performance. Starting from the appointment of the teachers for the various subjects to the handling of the detention lists, he does it all.

Moreover, the faculty here at NIT Raipur is overall a young group of teachers, which basically means they are way more enthusiastic and energetic. A couple of teachers from other departments also take a few subjects here at times.

Even the placements are quite well known here and although placements eventually depend on your throughout performance and scores. The following table shows the placement statistics of both institutions:

How can I score good marks in CT’s at NIT Raipur as a first year undergrad? How important are CT’s?

DS
Devesh Saha Posted On : June 14th, 2021
B.Tech Civil Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Raipur (2017)

My brother attended NIT Raipur and here’s what he had to say about CT.

  • Go through the content your teacher has taught in class to know about the general topic.
  • Take proper class notes.
  • Ask your seniors to share the old papers so that you get an idea of what you would face. Also, ask the seniors about any pattern to follow while writing the paper.

After completing the topics and talking to your seniors it should be easier to go through the test. CT definitely plays an important role during the initial stage as well as during the placements. CT gives you extra credit if you need it in any subject which is a huge benefit to keep since it helps scoring full marks in your internals or the exams.

CT is also very helpful as it generally consists of only a few chapters rather than the whole syllabus so it becomes quite easy to score high while just studying 2 chapters instead of the whole book.

How is the CSE at NIT Delhi compared to NIT Raipur's?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 2nd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

I would recommend you go for CSE from better NITs or other institutes like PEC, IIIT, YMCA, and others. Even IIIT Delhi is a decent option if you are considering staying in Delhi only. The reason I am against NIT Delhi so strongly is because it’s new and its CSE course is yet to develop and reach a certain standard. It does have its own campus and the facilities are also very limited here.

  • There are serious connectivity issues as the hostel buildings are very far from the main campus. The accommodation facilities are poor and not at par with NIT standards. 
  • Being newly established it has a very poor placement scenario not comparable to the old NITs or other institutions like PEC Chandigarh, IIITs, etc.
  • NIT Delhi does not have an active coding culture. The timetable is very rigid and the classes are conducted consequently without many breaks.
  • The faculty is also underqualified and has only a few good professors. 

Ultimately, I will suggest that if you are seriously inclined towards CS, and are ready to explore endless opportunities in the same,  then consider joining some other NIT than Raipur or Delhi. Go for IIIT Delhi instead!

Which is better, ECE at NIT Raipur or CSE at CBIT?

VT
Vidya Trivedi Posted On : July 13th, 2021
B.Tech in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Raipur (2019)

A relative of mine used to be a student of NIT Raipur. He pursued electronics at the institute and in his opinion, it is a good institute for electronics. However, choose the branch if you have a genuine interest.

If you are interested in CSE, then you stand to benefit from NIT Raipur Electronics too, as the students pursuing electronics at NIT Raipur get placed in CSE companies most of the time. The students also get placed in IT companies as the campus is visited by only one or two core electronic companies.

The faculty of the institute is experienced and supportive. It has also good lab facilities.

You can get placed in a CSE company through NIT Raipur which gives you the opportunity to choose your area of interest whether it is CSE or IT.

The average package offered by NIT Raipur in 2020 was INR 9.5 LPA. The top companies that visit the institute during the placement process are Siemens, Barclays, TATA, FIAT, Reliance, Amazon, etc.

You should do your own research on the institutes before deciding on any of the institutes.
