According to NIRF rankings 2020, the rank of MNNIT Allahabad is #48^th for B.Tech courses and the rank of JU is #117^th for B.Tech courses (in India). MNNIT Allahabad has more number of qualified faculties in their institution as compared to JU. JU as well as MNNIT Allahabad are approved by AICTE. But does the institution give good placements to their students? Let’s determine by the subsequent data.

Intake procedure

• JU:The selection is completed on the basis of the merit list. The university conducts an entrance exam namelyJET for admission.
• MNNIT Allahabad:The candidate must have completed his/her 10+2 in Science stream acquiring a minimum of 75% marks in the examination.Passing the entrance exam, i.e., JEE Main conducted by CBSE is necessary.

Placements

JU:

• Recently around 250 companies visited the campus for selections.
• Some of the frequently visited companies in JU are Dell, IBM, Coca Cola, Aircel, Airtel, Axis Bank, Bajaj and many more.
• In the campus selection of the university, the highest salary offered to an ECE student was INR 30 LPA and the average salary offered was INR 7 LPA.

MNNIT Allahabad:

• The placement rate for the ECE department is 90.63%with a total of 285 companies visiting the campus for placement.
• Some of the top recruiters of the institute are as follows: Indian Navy, Dell, Canon, BHEL, E-bay, Adobe, Bharat Institute of Technology, etc. followed by frequently visiting companies like Google, Infosys, Amazon, Flipkart, HCL, Axis bank, Dell, E-bay, Cisco, etc.

• Cut off of other state candidate for the general category is ranging between 4615-6752 and for home state general candidate ranged from 3600-7128.

Now on comparing the above data, the candidate might have come to know which institution is better. One should not only look for placement rate and salary as the key point to decide which institution is better. It is always advisable to look for other factors also like faculty, city life, which atmosphere suits him/her better, extra facilities, extracurricular activities, etc. Then a conclusion can be drawn to know which institution is better for them.

ECE and IT are two completely different streams in the field of Engineering and hence, one must go for the stream he/she wants to pursue. However, choosing the right college to build a student’s career is also important. So the following points can be taken into consideration for choosing between IIEST Shibpur and Delhi Technological University(DTU). IIEST Shibpur is ranked 20th in India by NIRF / MHRD in the Year 2019. Whereas, DTU presently ranks 62 by the NIRF.

Cut-off: Both the institute takes admission based on a valid score in JEE Main followed by Joint Admission Counselling.

• At IIEST Shibpur the JEE MAIN cut-off rank for taking admissions in IT was 9524 - 17031 in 2019.

• At DTU the cut-off rank in ECE was 22258, in the same year.

Fees:

• At DTU the average fees per year are 1.95 lakhs.

• For IIEST Shibpur the average fees per year are 1.37 lakhs.

Thus in terms of fees, BTech in IIEST Shibpur costs less than that of DTU.

Placement:

• Headed by a Renowned Ex IIT Director, IIEST Shibpur got the highest placement record of 75% in IT, last year. It witnessed the highest salary package of INR 39.12 LPA.

• Whereas, 170 out of 192 that is 88.5% of students got placed in ECE in DTU. The highest salary for B.Tech ECE during the last placement was INR 39 LPA.

So, DTU is much ahead in terms of placements.

You can apply for any of the two colleges keeping in mind the above-mentioned comparisons. DTU and IIEST Shibpur are the two most renowned colleges in India. However, IIEST is ranked higher and offers better placement than DTU. Nevertheless, the first thing that you have to consider is which stream you want to study and then decide a college depending upon that. Now, if you haven't decided anything and is confused between the above two streams, then studying IT at IIEST Shibpur is a better option.
