Which college is better- NIT Warangal, IIT Hyderabad, IIIT Hyderabad, CBIT or BITS Hyderabad?
Let’s do a comprehensive comparison of IIT Hyderabad, IIIT Hyderabad, and NIT Warangal (as my knowledge is limited to these 3 only)
IIT Hyderabad
- It has a great learning environment and students are very focused on academics and research. The fractal system is a cherry on top.
- The faculty is dedicated and very young, some of them aged less than 40.
- The system of fractal academics imparts a diverse learning experience as students are allowed to choose a course of their choice taught by their favorite professor. You can take courses in liberal arts like painting, learning foreign languages, pottery, etc.
- The course structure is flexible and one can do a minor or even a second major in other departments.
- Being close to the metropolitan city, Hyderabad, IIT Hyderabad attracts the best recruiters and faculty.
NIT Warangal
- It’s one of the first RECs established and is a highly esteemed institute with experienced faculty and notable alumni.
- Many professors lack a systematic course plan and are unable to complete the course in time. Some of them aren’t approachable and students are unable to get their queries solved.
- A lot of on-campus politics goes on at NIT Warangal.
- You get the opportunity to join NCC as well. There is a big outdoor stadium, gym and facilities for sports.
- The student body committee is very powerful and you can even protest openly against the director.
IIIT Hyderabad: It’s considered a good option for computer science students.
BITS Hyderabad: It is also a decent institute with students enjoying good opportunities and freedom.
CBIT: It is one of the best private institutes in AP and Telangana. However, it cannot be compared to NIT Warangal or others, as the exposure and opportunities of NIT are way better.
In my opinion, the ultimate preference order should be,
IIT Hyderabad> IIIT H>=BITs H>= NIT W>CBIT
Which one is better, IIM Udaipur or IIM Kashipur?
In most ways, IIM Udaipur and IIM Kashipur are similar. In terms of infrastructure, Kashipur had the first permanent building. But now Udaipur has as well. In terms of faculty, there isn't much of a difference; both are world-class in this regard.
Now comes the most crucial fact placement. Both are nearly identical in this case. Placement in the BFSI sector is the same in both. Kashipur is only four hours from Delhi and is located in a better industrial hub, so opportunities in sales and marketing are better. However, placement in the IT, consulting, and analytic sectors is better in Udaipur.
Should I opt for PEC CSE or NIT Jalandhar CSE?
If you are confused between PEC and Jalandhar for CSE, I would suggest going for NIT Jalandhar. Here you will avail some additional benefits like:
-
More experienced faculty and thereby better teaching quality.
-
The tag of being an NIT student is quite valuable.
-
Students belonging to financially weak strata can get fees relaxation. Exact details can be sought from the official website.
-
Placements are much better at NIT Jalandhar than PEC. The highest package offered at NIT Jalandhar this year was INR 62 LPA while that at PEC was INR 43 LPA
-
NIT Jalandhar had been ranked 52 by the NIRF rankings in 2020, while the PEC Chandigarh had been ranked 68 by the NIRF.
NIT Jalandhar has a lot more to offer than PEC. Also, it’s brand name will help you in the future.
Which is better IIEST Shibpur or Jadavpur University for ECE?

Which is better, LNMIIT, Jaipur or IIIT, Vadodara?
Among the above two institutes, LNMIIT Jaipur is a better choice, considering several factors like quality of education, placements, etc. I have a few friends from LNMIIT Jaipur, so I think I can give you a fair idea about the academics at LNMIIT.
Following is a table of comparison between the two institutes.

- LNMIIT Jaipur is a much more well-known and established institute, compared to IIIT Vadodara, which is a much newer institute too.
- The quality of education in LNMIIT Jaipur is higher than that of IIIT Vadodara. There are better quality faculties and an updated syllabus followed in LNMIIT.
- The placement statistics also clarify that LNMIIT Jaipur is much ahead of IIIT Vadodara in this aspect.
- There is an excellent coding culture in LNMIIT. Students from the institute participate in various national and international competitions and hackathons.
- The only disadvantage of LNMIIT Jaipur, when compared to IIIT Vadodara, is its high fees. As evident from the above table, the total fee of LNMIIT Jaipur is almost double that of IIIT Vadodara.
In both institutes, CSE is the first preferable stream. Other streams are not that good in offering opportunities in internships and placements to students.
Considering the above points, it is clear that LNMIIT Jaipur is definitely the better choice among the two institutes.

Which is better: IIIT-Delhi CSE or DTU CSE?
I had the same choice in front of me a few years back. As a student of DTU, I can present before you some pros of choosing it over IIIT Delhi for CSE. These are-
- DTU will provide you with ample time to explore your interests. These can be anything- coding, dancing, music, sports, drama, etc.
- You’ll have less academic pressure. With one to two hours of routine self-study, you can score good grades.
- You’ll have more time and energy for GATE, CAT, or GRE preparation.
- You’ll get excellent peers and a large and lush green campus. The campus is spread across 164 acres.
- DTU has great fests. These are- Engifest (cultural), Aahvaan (sports), Yuvaan (Literary), and Invictus (Technical). You’ll also enjoy DJ nights at the campus.
- It has a strong alumni network and brand value.
However, the CSE curriculum at IIIT Delhi is more up-to-date. Also, as DTU has a huge number of students for CSE, the competition is high.
Despite these cons, I believe DTU CSE is a better choice. But your decision should be based on your personal preferences.

Should I opt for Civil Engineering in IIEST Shibpur or Production Engineering at Jadavpur University?
First of all, it is important to note that Civil Engineering and Production Engineering are not the same things. Students looking to pursue courses in any of these fields are required to do thorough research before choosing and applying to a university.
Ranking:
- IIEST Shibpur and Jadavpur University are both excellent colleges for education. Jadavpur University is one of the top graded A-tier universities in India however, IIEST holds more brand value because of its recent popularity and placements.
- Jadavpur University has been ranked at 12 out of 200 universities in India by NIRF ranking and the 2nd best university in Kolkata. IIEST Shibpur has been ranked at 43rd place in the same ranking.
Departments:
- The Civil engineering department is one of the oldest departments at IIEST university and has one of the highest numbers of placements. The production engineering department at JU is relatively new but it has the benefit of having experienced and up to date professors.
Admission Cut-off:
Both universities accept JEE scores for admission. IIEST Shibpur B.Tech in Civil Engineering requires a rank around 2506-27001 whereas JU B.tech in production engineering requires a rank of 315-420.
Placements:
- The placements offered at Jadavpur University are better for the reason that it has a better nationwide ranking and engages in campus recruitment programs. It had recently achieved a record of 84% placements in May 2020.
- IIEST civil engineering program had 78 students out of which 42 got placed in 2020.It recorded a 57.14% placement percentage.
Thus, it all depends on the student and their JEE ranking if they want to take admission in IIEST Shibpur or Jadavpur University. Again, it also depends on the interest whether they want to pursue Civil Engineering or go towards the production engineering line.
