Both NIT Warangal and BITS Hyderabad/Goa are enormous and well-known colleges. If you choose either of them for a particular field it will be worth it. Just make sure of that in whichever college you are, give your best and you shall lead to success.

Both the colleges stand equally in terms of academics and placement statistics.

  • In terms of exposure, opportunities, research and peer interaction in BITS specifically are much more than NIT Warangal.
  • BITS embolden you to go for a long project for one semester in your final year in any part of the world. This is the main point of BITS that keeps it ahead of NIT.
  • Otherwise, you can experience almost the same in both the colleges in terms of career.
  • If you want to experience great college life, full of freedom, industrial exposure, and quality education, you can go for either of them.
  • In case you are looking for a good return on your investment, you then have to take the benefits of a government institution.
Categories Chemical Engineering at NIT Warangal Chemical Engineering at BITS (Hyderabad/Goa)

Should I choose NIT Calicut CS or BITS Hyderabad EEE?

SG
Sreyasi Gupta Posted On : August 25th, 2021
Studying at NIT Calicut (2022)

In comparison to BITS Hyderabad’s EEE, NIT Calicut’s CSE, the latter would be considered a better option. However, it is entirely up to you whether you want to pursue IT jobs or electrical hardware jobs. 

  • The NIT Calicut CSE batch had a 100% placement record. 
  • They were offered the highest salary package of 40 LPA.
  • The department of computer science is regarded as one of the best in the institute. 
  • Many well reputed companies such as Direct I, Morgan Stanley and over a hundred other multinational corporations (MNCs) come to campus for recruitment. 
  • When it comes to the overall development of a student NIT Calicut provides a plethora of opportunities during the tech fest TATHVA and the cultural fest RAGAM.

Tabulated difference between NIT Calicut CSE or BITS Hyderabad EEE are:

Categories CSE from NIT Calicut EEE from BITS Hyderabad
Total course fee 5.42 lakhs 19.9 lakhs
Top recruiters ABB, Amadeus, Amdocs, Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, Capgemini Adobe, Amazon, Axis Bank , Capgemini, CGI Information Systems and Management Consultants, Cisco System
Highest salary package 36 LPA 45 LPA
Average Salary Package 15 LPA 12 LPA

As I am not much familiar with BITS Hyderabad, I am not able to share details about the college. I had some of my friends graduating from NIT Calicut so I was able to share these details. Therefore, I believe CSE from NIT Calicut is the better option. You can interact with ex-students of BITS Hyderabad to get a proper overview of the college.

What do IITians think of BITS Goa/Hyderabad?

AM
Ayush Mehera Posted On : August 2nd, 2021
BITS Goa (2018)

I have friends from IITs and most of them don't like or enjoy the fact that a private university competes with them in placements, especially the CS branch, and some students of the BITS do get better placements than some of the students at IITs.

But they also admit that had there been bad results in the JEE examinations and if they couldn’t get a seat in a good IIT then BITS Pilani or Hyderabad would have been their first choice for the good placements and the brand tag (also top NITs and top IITs).

So to conclude I will say that the students of IITs don't like to be compared with them because the IIT tag is at a different level but they don’t deny the fact that BITS is not far behind them.

Which should I prefer, electrical engineering at BITS Pilani, Pilani campus or CSE at BITS Pilani, Hyderabad campus?

MK
Manaswini Khara Posted On : July 20th, 2021
Pune University (2019)

According to my friends studying at BITS Pilani, you should go with CSE. As it has got quite higher packages and has a greater number of job opportunities.

  • The campus hardly matters. You should pick your stream carefully, as it will determine your career.
  • Check the faculty, alumni, and the scope your chosen stream offers.
  • Due to the rapid growth of the corporate world and IT firms, there is a huge demand for CSE graduates.
  • BITS overall provides a good curriculum as well as placement. Choose the branch you feel confident about.

There are many top companies that participate in the placement drives conducted by BITS Pilani. They include companies like Microsoft, Capgemini, Accenture, TCS, Cognizant, IBM, Mindtree, ZS Associates, HCL, HP, Morgan & Stanley, etc.

It is suggested that you go for CSE rather than electrical due to its huge demand and scope. But ultimately it is your decision to make.

Which college should I choose, IIIT Guwahati (CSE stream) or BITS Hyderabad (electronics and electrical stream)?

SG
Sudipta Ghose Posted On : June 23rd, 2021
B.Tech. Metallurgical Engineering, NIT Raipur, National Institute of Technology, Raipur (2019)

Among BITS Hyderabad and IIIT Guwahati, EEE at BITS Hyderabad is the better option, considering the excellent placement scenario of the institute. Here are some of the advantages of joining BITS Hyderabad

  • The environment inside the campus of BITS Hyderabad is very good.
  • Placement in BITS Hyderabad is much better than IIIT Guwahati. Being in Hyderabad, the institute has a lot of location advantages which further aids in placement. Sometimes, the placements in BITS Hyderabad are even compared to that of IITs.

Here is a brief overview of the recent placement statistics at both institutes.

Institute

BITS Hyderabad

IIIT Guwahati

Average CTC

5 LPA

10.2 LPA

Highest CTC

14 LPA

17 LPA

Major recruiters

Microsoft, Infosys, ZS Associates

TCS, Byjus, Zaloni

  • The fee of BITS Hyderabad is higher than that of IIIT Guwahati, which is a point students need to consider before applying for the institute.
  • IIIT Guwahati is a much newer institute and is in its growing phase at present. So, there is no guarantee of placement in the institute.

Although the placement of a student mostly depends on the student’s potential and hard work, the institute definitely plays a role in it. And, considering the above points, electrical and electronics engineering at BITS Hyderabad is definitely a better choice.

Which is better, BITS Goa CS or Hyderabad CS?

TG
Tridha Gupta Posted On : July 30th, 2022
B.Tech Computer Science, Manipal Institute Of Technology (2021)

BITS Hyderabad CS is a better option. Although BITS Goa is older, the CS program on the Hyderabad campus went through rapid growth in a very short time. The reason can be ascribed to the location advantage. Hyderabad is a cybercity, so it's easier for students to get projects, internships, and placement opportunities. 

The 2022 statistics of BITS Hyderabad placements show the average CTC for CS to be around INR 22 LPA. The highest CTC offered for CS, this year was INR 43 LPA. MNCs like Apple, Google, Amazon, Adobe, etc. visit the placement drive of BITS Hyderabad regularly.

Which one is best: CSE/IT at NIT Surathkal, NIT Trichy, DTU, IIIT Allahabad, or BITS Hyderabad/Goa?

JP
Jignesh Patel Posted On : October 31st, 2020
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

CSE/ IT is a preferred branch but the colleges offering these streams need to be compared on the basis of the following parameters Fees, Seats, Placements, Number of companies visiting the campus, and Cut-off.

The aforesaid parameters can be justified in detail below for both CS and IT separately.

Course Fees:

  • NIT Surathkal has a fee range of Rs. 4.94 Lakh for computer science/ information technology

  • NIT Trichy provides the course at Rs. 5.24 Lakh.

  • DTU provides both courses within a primary range of Rs. 7.81 Lakh.

  • BITS Hyderabad provides a computer science course at Rs. 15.66 Lakh

  • IIIT Allahabad has a fee range of Rs. 15.66 Lakh.

Eligibility & Cut Off scores:

The eligibility for CS/IT at all the institutes is set as 10+2 with a minimum of 60% and JEE Mains score except for BITS Hyderabad which accepts BITSAT scores for admission. The cut-off score varies accordingly.

NIT Surathkal

1000-1600, JEE Main

NIT Trichy

1373, JEE Main

DTU

CS-11560, IT-13679

IIIT Allahabad

1291-5330 in JEE Mains

BITS Hyderabad

342 in BITSAT

Placements:

  • NIT Surathkal offers 100% placements with a record of an entire batch of 98 students. Primary recruiters are Capgemini, Genpact, Samsung R&D, Wipro Ltd., and CitiBank Ltd.

  • NIT Trichy offers 95% placements in the sector of technology and operations. The top recruiters are HCL, Genpact, Wipro, Zoho, and Tech Mahindra.

  • DTU offered 433 job offers in core engineering and technology firms focusing around 131 IT firms. 158 job offers were made along-with 122 students placed successfully.

  • For BITS Hyderabad 120 companies participated from the IT sector, the majority of them were leading players like Adobe, Google, Microsoft, and Linkedin.

College

Packages

NIT Surathkal

Average-Rs. 22 LPA, Highest-Rs.49 LPA

NIT Trichy

Average-Rs. 4.5 LPA, Highest-Rs.40 LPA

DTU

Highest-Rs.40.63 LPA

IIIT Allahabad

Average-Rs. 20.83 LPA, Highest-Rs.43 LPA

BITS Hyderabad

Average-Rs. 11 LPA

The other factor that is to be concerned is definitely the ranking and reputation of colleges in the marketspace. Both the NIT’s are exemplary performers in the field of engineering. IIIT focuses primarily on information technology. BITS in comparison to all is a private institute that can be a little behind in the race compared to major government institutions.

Which is a better place to study economics, Presidency University, Kolkata or BITS, Goa (or Hyderabad)?

RK
Raj Shekhar Kumar Posted On : June 23rd, 2021
B.Sc Economics & Statistics, Presidency University, Kolkata

Presidency University, Kolkata is a better to place to study economics than BITS, Goa, or Hyderabad. Presidency University, Kolkata is well known for its economics department. It also has an excellent subject record.

In the national ranking too Presidency University comes at the top. One of my cousins studies at Presidency University, Kolkata. And he vouches for the Economics degree provided by the institute.

Taking into consideration various factors like fees, faculty, it is safe to say Pracidency University is the better alternative.

But if you are looking for placement after graduation, then joining Presdancyi will not be a good idea. Although their Economics dept. Is well-renowned, they don’t offer placements after graduation. You will have better placement opportunities at BITS Goa.
