Which is best, IIIT Allahabad information tech or BIT Mesra ECE or IT?

AS
Aakash Sinha Posted On : March 9th, 2021
Studied at the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad.

IT In IIIT- Allahabad is a great choice. It is one of the best colleges in India for this field and branch. The course structure is amazing and polished and focuses more on topics related to IT. The course emphasizes practical applications. There are almost no courses that are out of the sphere of field.

The labs and infrastructure are one of a kind and the student culture in IT is very motivated. Most of the students start taking part in competitive programming right from the 1st or 2nd year. If you find coding really interesting and see it as a career, then you should definitely go for IIIT-Allahabad. The coding culture is awesome and people praise it a lot. You will love the college for its study environment. If you feel the passion and love for hardware-oriented work, you should definitely go for ECE.

Placements:

  • The placements for IT are really good. They have top IT companies or firms visiting the campus. 
  • Some of the top companies are Microsoft, Facebook, Adobe, Flipkart, Amazon, Directi, etc. offers a great package. 
  • 2020 batch received the highest package of 43 LPA and an average package of 20.83 LPA. 
  • The college’s reputation is growing significantly year by year.

Seeing the wonderful coding culture, the growing alumni base of brilliant minds, and therefore the previous records of placements from IIIT- Allahabad, there’s no lookout for any other college if you intend to be a part of this one.

Talking about the disadvantages, the campus doesn’t lie in the proximity area of any big city or town. The proximity to a metro city nearby is a huge problem. Though BIT Mesra has the same issue, hence I feel that both the colleges are even. A journey to Delhi by train takes a lot of time, probably a one-night trip.

Which is the best PTU and GNDU college in Punjab?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : August 24th, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

My brother was admitted to PTU and regretted his decision a lot in the first year. However, he wants to be financially strong enough to restart his education in a new college and pay the fees again. He continued studying at PTU and graduated in 2015. 

Soon he landed a government job and he realized that college doesn't matter in the long run. What matters is your knowledge and ability to ace the interview. Choosing either college, GNDU or PTU, will offer similar opportunities as it is you who decides your prospects. 

So rather than focusing on the ‘better college’, become a better person and become a top ranker. As long as you are committed to hard work, all colleges will offer similar opportunities to you.

Which one is better for pursuing an MBA: IBS Hyderabad or IIM Sambalpur?

AT
Akash Tiwari Posted On : January 24th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Amritsar

First of all, it’s wrong to compare IIM Sambalpur with a below-average institution like IBS Hyderabad. IIM Sambalpur might be a new IIM but it is still among the tier 3 colleges whereas IBS Hyderabad is nowhere near. 

My friend is currently pursuing an MBA from IIM Sambalpur and has listed the following pros and cons of the institute 

Pros

  • Under the mentorship of IIM Indore, IIM Sambalpur is slowly making its mark in the IIM family. It welcomes visiting faculties from IIM Indore which also shares the research work and other material with Sambalpur
  • IIM Sambalpur might soon become an educational center as it hosts one of the oldest engineering colleges of the state which is on its way to becoming an IIEST, a very reputed government medical college and a couple of other well-known government universities.
  • The airstrip near the city might soon become an airport in the near future thereby enhancing connectivity.
  • Although it functions from a leased campus, the infrastructure is top notch

Cons

  • It does not have its own campus and functions from leased premises 
  • The campus is situated 20 km away from the city and the nearest railway station in a lowly private engineering college.
  • The placement is nowhere near the IIM standards 
  • Weak alumni base due to recent establishment 
  • The faculties are mediocrely experienced
  • The lack of connectivity is a major reason for poor placements. The nearest functional airport is in Bhubaneswar, 350 km away.

All in all IIM Sambalpur is a decent choice if you are passionate about the IIM tag only and have limited options. Some years down the line it might improve in brand value as well. So go for it if it’s the tag you are after but go for ISB if you want a better teaching experience.
