How can I get a CGPA of 10 at NIT Trichy?
Here are a few tips to get a 10 CGPA at NIT Trichy
- Attend classes regularly and make detailed notes that will help you save time later.
- Go through the assignments and last year's papers to get an idea of the questions that might come in the exams.
- Finish the syllabus well before exams and leave enough time for revision.
While all these may help you get a perfect 10, trust me it doesn't guarantee a happy and content college experience. For that, you need to look beyond academics. Participate in Festember or Pragyan, go for IOT, or any other technical projects. Develop your personality as a whole and don’t become a book nerd. Make new friends, go on trips, and create memories. Scoring a 10 will only restrict your growth and you don’t want that to happen!
How good is ECE at NIT Trichy?
Honestly, the academic environment of the ECE branch at NIT Trichy is deteriorating day by day. One of my friends, an ex-student of NIT Trichy, brought light to this matter. He told me that the labs are more focused on report writing than actual work. The exams conducted are based on rote learning and not testing the concepts of the students. They are expected to mug up the concepts even if they haven’t understood them and score good marks.
However, there are some exceptional cases of professors who are proficient in their respective fields like digital electronics, digital VLSI, signal processing, computer architecture, etc. To do projects under them, you need to have a high CGPA. The placement training sessions are also pretty good with many intellectual questions in the respective topics.
Ultimately, I will say if you are a true electronics fan then take ECE either in the new IITs or go to IIIT Hyderabad. Coming to NIT Trichy will only waste your time and money.
Which should should I choose to pursue computer science: DTU, NSIT, IIIT Delhi, IIIT Bangalore, IIIT Allahbad, and NITs except Trichy, Warangal, or Suratkal?
We need to consider a number of factors before choosing one college from DTU, NSUT, IIIT Delhi, IIT Bangalore, IIIT Allahabad, and NITs.
- Quality of education: In terms of academics, IIIT Delhi serves the best. The teachers are genuinely interested in teaching and encouraging students to research work. In DTU and NSUT students are expected to cope with the curriculum on their own.
- Campus life: DTU offers the best resources and campus life to its students followed by NSUT and IIIT Delhi
- Peer group: You will find the best peer group that is passionate about CS at IIIT Delhi and NSUT.
- Placements: This aspect is quite arguable because there is the general scenario as well as the statistics to consider. Generally, DTU fares better than NSUT and IIIT Delhi but if you look at the statistics, IIIT Delhi is the best among these colleges followed by NSUT and DTU.
- Brand Name and Alumni: In this aspect, DTU is the clear winner.
- Research Culture : IIIT Delhi has more faculty that are inclined towards research. The overall ambiance is conducive to cutting-edge research and students have to do research as a part of the curriculum. IIIT Delhi is followed by NSUT and DTU.
- Higher Studies: IIIT Delhi has a CGPA system while NSUT and DTU have a percentage system. A CGPA of 8.75-9 is considered pretty good while even a percentage of 79% is not. So IIIT Delhi students face a certain advantage during shortlisting. Additionally, their research work and skills add to their overall profile and increase their chances of admission to top universities.
Overall, the best option for you is IIIT Delhi considering the above aspects.
If I have offer from both IIIT Bangalore and NIT Trichy for MTech CSE which will be a good option to choose?
If you have offers from all the mentioned institutes, then firstly I would like to congratulate you for achieving such a feat. Many students fail to get offers from any one of these institutes, and here you are sitting at the top of your game. Congratulations!
When it comes to choosing the best option among these three, I would suggest that you choose NIT Trichy. The reputation of NIT Trichy as one of the best NITs is by far one of the driving forces of students choosing this institution. The CSE department of NIT Trichy has a curriculum that has been developed to meet the industry needs of the students. You will get to learn multiple programming languages as well as be able to use them on multiple projects. You will be encouraged to develop new software. There are instances where students become entrepreneurs on the campus and pitch their projects and software to investors.
Is there a way to change our course in NIT Trichy after first year?
No, after the first year it is certainly not possible to change branches in NIT Trichy. You will have to stay in the same department which you will be allotted during the JOSAA counseling.
But there is an internal sliding in all NITs after the completion of allotments where you can change your department in a particular branch. For example, if you are assigned Production Engineering, then you can move to Instrumentation and Control Engineering as both of them are under the electronics branch and the syllabus for both of them are similar.
So, what you can do is look up the allotment list for closing ranks of each department and try to estimate whether or not you will be eligible for internal sliding. Usually, the top 5 rankers (opening rank) from each department are eligible for internal sliding. However, this number varies depending on the people applying and the vacancies in a department.
Which is better: the Anna University College of Engineering or NIT Trichy?
I don’t think comparing both the colleges i.eAnna University College of Engineering and NIT Trichy is justified. This is because both are equally good in almost all the parameters. Both ranked among the top Engineering colleges in India. I have made a slight comparison based on the following factors to make a better choice:
Placements: NIT Trichy has an upper hand in placements. More core companies visit NITs in general than CEGs. This is because NIT is an established brand name.
Higher studies: CEG is slightly privileged in this aspect as it considers the TN state boards marks whereas NIT considers JEE performance. So the former is easier than the latter.
College life: College life at CEG is better because of its location. You can eat outside the hostel as many restaurants are available near the college. But NIT Trichy is far from the city so options for exploring are fewer.
Lastly, keep in mind that if you are choosing NIT then go for Trichy or Kurukshetra only. Don’t go for any other NIT leaving CEG.
How good are the placements for data analytics at NIT Trichy?
NIT Trichy placements are pretty good for Data Analytics. Students get good placements as well as internship opportunities. Here are the recent placement highlights.
| Average Package | INR 10 LPA |
| Placement Average | 90% |
| Recruiting Companies | Microsoft, DE Shaw, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, etc. |
Although there is a fair bit of competition, if you are skilled, you can get good placements through the campus drive.
Is it tough to secure 8.5 GPA in NIT Trichy?
Getting an 8.5 GPA at NIT Trichy depends on certain factors. Below I have talked about each one separately-
- If you get CSE/EEE/ECE/Mech branch in which the class strength is greater than 100, you will face slightly more difficulty (in comparison to other branches) in scoring an 8.5 GPA.
- If you get Meta/Chem in NIT Trichy, where the class strength is less than 100 students, you will face comparatively less competition.
There is a system of Relative Grading(RG), so your GPA also depends on your classmates’ performance.
If you regularly attend classes (maintaining at least 75% attendance), keep yourself updated on all that is being taught in the class, and study well before your CTs/unit tests, and end sem, you will easily score 8.5 or above in NIT Trichy.
On the other hand, if you are a lazy person who sleeps for 12-14 hours a day, will bunk your classes regularly, and play PUBG all day, you won’t score well.
Attend your classes regularly and try to study for 2-3 hours a day. Maintain at least 75% attendance. Try to score well in your CTs and Unit Tests, then you will be less worried during your end sem.
You can not control the performance of your entire class, but if you follow a disciplined and balanced routine, you will make sure from your end that you score well as a student of NIT Trichy.
How good is an MTech in industrial engineering and management from NIT Trichy? What are the job prospects?
NIT Trichy Placements are good for the Industrial Engineering and Management course. You can sit for placements in almost all the companies that offer jobs to Mechanical/Production specializations. IEM students are also exclusively offered placements for Management related profiles.
Data/Business Analytics, Simulation, and Supply Chain are some core IE profiles that are offered only to IEM students.
With an M.Tech in IEM, you can work as a Lecturer in Engineering Colleges or apply for a Ph.D. in IITs, IIMs, or Foreign Universities. The curriculum of IEM at NIT Trichy is job oriented and the department is lenient towards attendance, classes, and exams.
Thus an M.Tech in IEM from NIT Trichy is a good choice and it offers numerous job opportunities.
