Before deciding on any institute you should analyze it based on different parameters. Check if the college provides good facilities like hostels equipped with a good and stable internet connection, good food, satisfactory infrastructure, and the most important, a good campus placement drive. Both IIIT Allahabad and NIT Durgapur offer above-average facilities. Here is a brief outline of the institute.

Category

IIIT Allahabad

NIT Durgapur

Total Fee

5.85 lakhs

5.6 lakhs

Companies Visited

Amazon, Infosys, Cognisant, etc.

Infosys, TCE, Amazon, etc.

Highest Package

43 LPA

33 LPA

If we look at the placement scenario closely, we can see that IIIT Allahabad has a better placement record and gets more companies. They also provide a higher package to their students. This does not make NIT Durgapur bad. Even NIT Durgapur provides good placements as well as opportunities for higher studies as well.

Both the colleges have a similar kind of course curriculum and nobody can force you to study.

It is not fair to compare the two universities because both of them are unique in themselves and have their charm. So, choose according to your convenience.

Which one will be better, MNNIT Allahabad or IIIT Allahabad for an M.Tech in CSE?

SV
Suhaas Verma Posted On : July 16th, 2021
Teaching Assistant at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad

Both IIIT Allahabad and MNNIT Allahabad are excellent institutes, providing sufficient placements in the circuital branches of engineering. But, IIIT Allahabad has slight advantages over the other, considering certain parameters in branches, which are discussed below in the following points.

  • MNNIT Allahabad and IIIT Allahabad are two incomparable institutes, having decent placement records each. Both the institutes have an excellent self-study culture among students for their own betterment.
  • IIIT is totally devoted to IT and Electronics branches only, it has a slight advantage in placement and opportunities over the other.
  • IIIT Allahabad is a much newer institute, being established in the year 2000. Even, many faculties of IIIT Allahabad are pass-out students of MNNIT Allahabad.
  • Both IIIT and MNNIT have an excellent placement record for M.Tech branches.
  • The coding culture of IIIT Allahabad is famous all over India, which is the second-best in the country after IIIT Hyderabad. If you are interested in coding and open-source development should definitely choose IIIT Allahabad over MNNIT. Students who have an interest in other fields can choose MNNIT.
  • Students who are in doubt about their coding capabilities can visit some notable websites for practice and tests in competitive coding. If the student is good at it, he/she should surely come to IIIT Allahabad and can even expect a package of about 20 LPA after the degree.

For M.Tech in CSE or IT, IIIT Allahabad is a better choice, provided the coding culture and placements in those branches at IIIT.

Can someone from IIIT Lucknow upgrade to IIIT Allahabad after 1 year?

AS
Atanu Sen Posted On : July 2nd, 2021
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2019)

IIIT Lucknow and IIIT Allahabad are two different institutes altogether and there aren’t any options to change from one to the other after 1 year. So, no you cannot upgrade to IIIT Allahabad from IIIT Lucknow after 1 year.

IIIT Lucknow was established recently and it does not have its own campus ready in Lucknow yet. So it is using the IIIT Allahabad campus as its temporary campus. The students of IIIT Lucknow are thus treated equally in the same league as IIIT Allahabad. They share almost every facility but that does not mean you can change your college entirely after 1 year.

Should I try for ECE at IIIT Allahabad or ECE at MNIT Jaipur?

AS
Ayush Sharma Posted On : June 29th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, Malaviya National Institute of Technology, Jaipur (2020)

IIIT Allahabad and MNIT Jaipur are institutes of national importance. But if you like coding, it's not wise to search for options in ECE. ECE is a hardware-related program dealing with communication, whereas CS deals with software.

For the NIT tag, you can choose SVNIT. Among the IIITs, the best will be IIIT Bangalore ad it provides the best research opportunities. But, the best choice as per your interest is B.Tech Hons. Computational Sciences from DA-IICT.

The reasons are below.

  • The institute is famous for its coding culture. A team from the institute had recently qualified for ACM ICPC World Finals.
  • CS opens the gates for research opportunities if you are inclined.

The fee and placement of DA-IICT are as follows.

Tuition Fee

7.28 Lakhs

Average Package

10.16 LPA

Highest Package

39.3 LPA

Overall, DA-IICT is worth joining for the CS program. It will reap excellent results.

Which is the better option for me? Mtech IT from IIIT Allahabad or Mtech CSE from IIT(ISM) Dhanbad?

AM
Ahana Majumdar Posted On : June 19th, 2021
M.Tech CSE - IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, 2020

The first thing you should consider is whether you want to pursue a Ph.D. or want a job after the completion of the course. I have a few friends at IIT ISM and I can tell you there are very few good faculties for CSE if you want guidance regarding Ph.D.

For any information regarding the faculty and research projects of IIIT Allahabad, you can visit both their faculty profile page and set a legitimate comparison with IIT (ISM).

Here are some other parameters of IIT (ISM), which you may find useful.

Placements:

The job prospects are increasing every year and the change is noticeable since its conversion to IIT. The institute also had a new director from IIT Kanpur. There also was a significant change in the placement cell, and the M.Tech placement stats have been kept under consideration, alongside B.Tech only after that.

The latest stats are as follows,

No. of Students Placed

31 out of 58

Average CTC

INR. 14 LPA

Highest CTC

INR 43.31 LPA

Top Recruiters

Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Ernst & Young

Moreover, the summer and 6-month internships have also been good over the past few years. For instance, the 2021 passing out batch has received several summer intern offers from companies like Goldman Sachs, Amazon, and Microsoft.

If you prepare for the coding session interviews from the beginning of the 1st year, then you are more likely to obtain internship opportunities. You can convert it to PPO before the placement season begins.

Other Parameters:

There is another thing you should consider. It is the number of students from either CSE or IT in B.Tech + M.Tech taking part in the placement season,

A total of 372 students participated in the placement drive from IIIT Allahabad while 203 participated from ISM Dhanbad.

However, there might not be a significant difference between companies that visit both institutes. Fewer participants in placements mean less competition.

So, I will suggest that you take all these factors into consideration and also do your own research. Consider other options too, if you have any.

Which is better, VNIT Nagpur or IIIT Allahabad, for the ECE branch?

PK
Pallavi Kapoor Posted On : June 19th, 2021
Information Technology (IT) at VNIT Nagpur (2019)

One of my acquaintances has a better opinion on the same. He says that if you opt to take admission at IIIT Allahabad, then you are more likely to have better opportunities in the IT field.

  • Mostly, the students of ECE are thoroughly engaged in coding and are known to study ECE because of reasons that center around only graduating.
  • While, on the flip side, in VNIT Nagpur, the students pursue ECE because they are interested in it.
  • However, the placements of IT field are more likely to surpass the number of placements seen in ECE fields. This is because the core hardware companies relatively do not share the same amount of trust with the freshers.
  • If you want to obtain a better salary package after graduating from a B.Tech course, then going for IIIT, Allahabad can be a superior option.
  • While, if you relevantly want to pursue your career in most of the core ECE companies, then it is suggested that you opt for VNIT, Nagpur.

Yet, here is a brief data about the overall placement, course fees and more about both the institutes,

Intitutes

IIIT, Allahabad

VNIT, Nagpur

Course Fees (1st Year Fees)

1.65 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)

1.49 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)

Average CTC

INR 20.83 LPA

Rs 3.3 LPA

Highest CTC

INR. 43 LPA

INR. 22 LPA

Top Recruiters

Adobe, VISA, Paytm, Amazon, Flipkart, Arista Networks, Cisco Systems

ACC Limited, Amazon, Aarti Industries, Capgemini Technology Services Ltd., Goldman Sachs

However, in most cases, 10-15% of students choose ECE companies, but ever since software companies have become high-paying, several students tend to rather opt for an IT job profile.
