I have got admission in IIT Indore electrical. How is the life there at IIT Indore? And how is the Electrical branch over there?

IIT Indore has started operating from its permanent campus. Life here is very fulfilling and vibrant. The first year is light on your academics and you will have enough time to participate in club activities and extracurriculars. The seniors help you in every possible way. Life here is very dynamic and college fests are held in even semesters.

The infrastructure of IIT Indore is relatively new and still needs development. 

The EE branch of IIT Indore has a highly qualified faculty pool with the most learned professors. The curriculum is very challenging with many mathematical concepts. But if you attend the classes regularly you won’t face any major issues. What matters the most is your genuine interest in the branch. 

All in all, maintain a good CGPA and make the most of your 4 years ahead! What matters is how well you avail the opportunities that compare your way.

Being one of the new IITs established in 2008, IIT Indore has a very beautiful campus decked with all modern amenities and equipment. 

  • School Building: The building is huge with numerous classrooms in addition to Physics and Chemistry Labs and a library. The labs have modern instruments and all the equipment is updated. 
  • Sophisticated Instrument Centre(SIC)- The SIC has Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Mass Spectrometry, Elemental Analysis, and Single Molecule Imaging and Spectroscopy to ensure high-quality data analysis.
  • Central Workshop: Here, students are given training in foundry, welding, carpentry, machining, forming, molding, and fitting through skilled trainers.
  • Cafeteria: This is your ultimate escape when you are famished and are in no mood to have the food at mess. 
  • Hostel: Both girls and boys reside in a single building although with single occupancy rooms. The quadrangle has a badminton court as well as a mess. Additionally, the hostel building has a separate room for gym, TT, and foosball. 

Considering all these amenities, I do think IIT Indore is good enough.

Which is better: a CSE at new IITs like Patna, Indore or a CSE at DTU?

AB

My friend was in a similar dilemma last year and chose DTU over IIT Patna. She considers new IITs overhyped and not at par with the IIT standards. Running after the IIT tag is not logical and you should look at the bigger picture. Anaise your career prospects and see if other options fit your prospects or not. 

DTU is a great option for CSE considering the excellent exposure and opportunities you will get in Delhi, the capital. The salary packages, the companies, and the profiles offered at DTU are similar to the new IITs if not better. 

To make things simpler, here are a few pros and cons of going for a new IIT instead of DTU

Pros:

  • The most coveted IIT tag name, helps you get admission to foreign universities and also helps you in off-campus job hunt.
  • IITs have better research opportunities 
  • The academic structure and pedagogy are world-class at IITs

Cons:

  • Being in Delhi will groom your overall personality in addition to excellent professional opportunities and exposure. 
  • The new IITs fail to give a vibrant and dynamic college life and are still struggling with infrastructure and basics. DTU, being old, has a vibrant culture with all sorts of fests, cultural and tech activities.
  • Delhi is the hub of coaching institutes for higher education. 
  • DTU has a better brand name established by its successful alumni spread across the globe. 

Ultimately it’s your choice whether you want a better campus life or the IIT tag.

How did IIT Indore become so good in competitive programming?

SB
Shivam Behera Posted On : June 17th, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Indore (2020)

Asking how IIT Indore became good in programming is as lame as asking why Indians are good at cricket. The only reason is that it’s the first thing IIT Indore did big and succeeded. 

There are a number of students who started the legacy one of them being Archit Karandikar, an IOI Bronze medal winner. Many followed the footsteps of this genius of them being Sanjeev Shenoy and Gaurav Agarwal who too gained fame in competitive programming. IIT Indore had the honor to even make it to the World Finals. In the World Finals of 2013-14, the trio went to Ekaterinburg and again achieved a milestone.

It was after this that IIT Indore picked pace in competitive programming and then competitive programming and many coding lovers started coming in flocks to IIT Indore CS. 

Sadly, the faculties are rarely involved and make no major contributions. It’s the students who are left on their own to give shape to their dreams and talents.
