Studied M.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2017)

Every college has its own methods to train students. SPA is focused mostly on the market requirement and less focus on detailed analytical studies. IITs and NITs do not have undergraduate courses but if you want to pursue post-graduation courses then they are the best.

NIT Calicut is one of the best options due to the highly qualified faculty members and the major focus of the college is towards the holistic development of students. The atmosphere is also very familiar to live in Calicut.

Will I get into NIT Calicut in the special round? My rank is 4,687.

Abhinash Kumar Mishra Posted On : August 27th, 2021
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal (2021)

To be frank enough, your rank 4687 is quite a pretty decent rank. You should have gotten into these colleges in the beginning rounds itself. 

If you have not filled these colleges as per your preferences and are now going to a special round, Then it solely depends on the vacancy of that particular seat. 

But surely if there is any sort of vacancy, then with such a decent rank you will get a seat there.

Which one is the best, a dual degree in economics at BITS or ECE at NIT Calicut?

NS
Nikita Sharma Posted On : August 25th, 2021
Studied at NIT Calicut (2019)

Both the fields are greatly different. One lets you deal with finance and the other with mobile and technology. It completely depends on your interest.

ECE from NIT Calicut seems to be a better option. Because if you opt for it you will just have to brush up your knowledge on physics and learn more about it. Whereas economics will be a new subject and it will take a lot of time to learn it from scratch.

  • In terms of college, BITS is surely a better option than NIT Calicut. But it’s not just about college, an NIT CSE graduate can land a job in Google and earn a lot. 
  • Whereas somebody from IIT with Civil would have to compromise as there are not a lot of jobs offered in that field. 
  • If you are interested in pursuing M.Tech from India or abroad or if you even want to have a great job, in the beginning, ECE from NIT Calicut is the best option. 
  • But if you want to learn economics from scratch and pursue it to become an economist then economics is also a good option. 
Category NIT Calicut BITS
Total Fee 5.42 lakhs 2.3 lakhs
Companies Visited Oracle, Infosys, JP Morgan, etc. Accolite, Aditya Birla, Cummins, etc.
Highest Package 49 LPA 15 LPA
Average Package 15 LPA 8.5 LPA

Therefore, you must look into your interests and not opt for anything which just looks good. ECE is a circuit line and jobs are plenty in them too. So taking up ECE at NIT Calicut is a better option.

Which is the best option, BITS Pilani Goa (CSC) or Calicut NIT (CSC)?

SJ
Shanaya Jauhari Posted On : August 20th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Management Shillong (2019)

First of all, I want to clarify that there is no such branch called CSC in either BITS Pilani or NIT Calicut. Both the colleges have Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) degrees 

  • BITS Pilani is a top private engineering university. However the same cannot be said about its Goa campus. 
  • NIT is a brand that is recognized instantly by almost everyone in any part of the country and this gives NIT Calicut a distinct advantage. 
  • As it is a government-run college the learning environment is also better due to the better quality of students. 
  • Companies also prefer NITs over private engineering colleges. You will get better job opportunities at NIT Calicut.
Categories CSE at BITS Pilani Goa CSE at NIT Calicut
Course Fee 19.19 lakh 5.42 lakh
Highest CTC 24 LPA 29 LPA
Average CTC 11 LPA 18 LPA
Recruiting Companies Google, nVidia, DE Shaw, Arcesium, etc. Wipro, TCS, Accenture, IBM, etc.

Hence it is suggested that CSE at NIT Calicut is a much better choice than CSE at BITS Pilani Goa campus.

Between IIIT Allahabad, IIIT Delhi, DTU, NSIT, DAIICT, NIT Calicut, which college should I choose for pursuing CS ?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : July 5th, 2023

My cousin graduated from DTU in CS. According to him, these institutions can be ranked for CS in the following order-

  1. DTU
  2. NIT Calicut
  3. IIIT Allahabad
  4. NSIT (now NSUT)
  5. IIIT Delhi
  6. DAIICT

DTU is considered one of the best Indian institutions for CS. Therefore, you should go for DTU if you get the opportunity. Every technical society at DTU, be it IEEE, ASME, CSI, IET, or even the small ones, gives great value to coding competitions. Thus, coding classes and competitions are held on a regular basis.

For those who want to work on real-use-productive coding instead of passive-competitive coding, there are many opportunities at DTU. DTU has several societies, and there are student entrepreneurs who are always in dire need of talented coders. 

DTU also has a locational advantage. Being situated in the capital of India, it offers students great opportunities and exposure, not just industrial but of all types. Gurgaon is the IT hub and since you will spend 4 years of student life in Delhi, if you land a job in Gurgaon after graduating, you will have been accustomed to the region by that time.

The seniors at DTU are helpful and there is a strict anti-ragging policy on campus. The faculty consists of learned and helpful professors. The non-tech placements are also quite good at DTU.

DTU has huge brand value, long-standing history, and it is the mother of a lot of great colleges.

NIT Calicut is a good choice as well because it has a good placement record and an impressive infrastructure. In terms of location, however, DTU, NSUT, and IIIT Delhi are at an advantage.

You can consider all the above factors and finally decide which of these institutions is the right choice for you to pursue your CS.

How is the hostel accommodation for 1st-year M.Tech students at NIT Calicut?

NS
Nishat Suri Posted On : April 15th, 2021
M Tech from National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2017)

Hostels in NIT C for the PG students are not good. Students are allotted to the Professor's Apartment in their first tear. 

  • The apartment consists of a flat which has 3 rooms, kitchen and 1 hall i.e. equivalent to a 3 BHK flat. But the number of students in each flat depends on the number of rooms each flat possesses. 
  • Along with that, some students get the golden opportunity of residing in halls or even in the kitchens. 
  • The toilets according to the number of students are always less and then there is always a queue outside the bathroom gate in the morning. There are a total of 14 to 16 students per flat. 
  • The journey from apartments to college is like going on a trek. Now they have started a bus service.

This was the scenario of the first year and for the second year students, the scenario is a bit different. The second-year students are mostly accommodated in the MBA hostels which have toilets attached with the rooms but are far from the previous apartments where you were living in the first year. 

Wi-Fi is available on the campus and works well for the new buildings and hostels. At the time of joining they will tell you that the new hostels are under construction and will be ready to move soon. 

Please take a note that if possible go for the kitchen as that will be the only single room accommodation available for you as a PG student in NIT Calicut.

How are NIT Calicut hostels?

RB
Riya Banerjee Posted On : August 25th, 2021
B.Tech Electrical and Electronics Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2018)

Few of my friends attend NIT Calicut and they were able to give me some information regarding the hostel on campus. 

  • More than half of the hostel buildings appear to be old and rustic. They were built about 50 years ago but they still serve the basic required standard.
  • Apart from your own room, everything else is cleaned almost every day. You will have to clean your room on your own.
  • The first-year students are allocated rooms based on a 4 sharing system.
  • For the second-year students who reside in hostel C, one room is allocated to three students. For those of the students who reside in Mega, the rooms are allocated on a two-sharing system.
  • For third-year students residing in hostels B and C, one room is shared by three students.
  • In the fourth year, usually, single rooms are allocated but due to renovation in hostel E, some of the rooms are allocated on a two-sharing basis.
  • The food at the messes is sometimes good and sometimes bad. If you are willing to spend some extra money, you can make up for it.
  • Internet connectivity is good. On some days the download speed goes up to 12 megabytes per second.
  • From the second year onwards, there is no restriction imposed on boys regarding entry/exit time. Girls have permission to stay out till 9 pm.

NIT Calicut hostels are good in comparison to many engineering institutions in the country. You will enjoy your engineering life at the hostels there.
