What is the toughest thing to do at IIIT Hyderabad?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : August 2nd, 2023

I asked my friends at IIIT Hyderabad the toughest things they had to do there and most of them listed these two

  • Passing in PT and Yoga is one of the toughest things to do at IIIT Hyderabad. 
  • Studying for the SSAD, a 3 credit course is quite challenging.

Most of them believed that spending 1 hour daily just for exercise and yoga is a waste of time for a future CS engineer. No doubt, exercise is important but not at the expense of one's academics.

Which is better for an M.Tech in civil engineering, NIT Surathkal or IIT Bhubaneswar?

HT
Harsha Tyagi Posted On : August 13th, 2020
Studied at National Institute of Technology KarnatakaSurathkal

Both the colleges are equally good but you should go for NIT Surathkal because it is a well-established institute and has a greater alumni background. It is one of the top NITs which are better than a new IIT. IIT Bhubaneswar is a new IIT therefore it lacks proper infrastructure, alumni, and faculty. 

On the other hand, NIT Surathkal is old and has proper faculty and alumni which is a plus point. The average package at NIT Surathkal was 11.90 LPA for M.Tech and 11.44 LPA at IIT Bhubaneswar. In 2019,  there was a 69% placement for M.Tech students in IIT Bhubaneswar. M.Tech is considered a dead course in India because it lacks job options. But it is up to you, what you do with your post-grad degree. Both colleges will provide you a great number of opportunities. 

College life of both the colleges is great but there is one thing that NIT Surathkal has that no other college in India has and that is it has an own beach. Environment wise both colleges are good. NIT Surathkal hosts the second biggest fest in south India called Incident. 

Although the IIT tag offers certain advantages, you should choose NIT Surathkal because of its experienced faculty and better opportunities it can provide.

Which is better - the IIT in Bhubaneswar for ECE, or the NIT in Rourkela for CSE?

Namrata Das Posted On : June 22nd, 2023

Considering the two options, ECE from IIT Bhubaneswar is a better one. IITs have a brand name and the faculty and atmosphere of an IIT are top-notch, regardless of the branch.

But if you are interested in CSE, NIT Rourkela is a good institution, you can surely go for it. 

If you are not concerned about the branch, then joining the older IITs like IIT Delhi or IIT Madras is the best option. There you will get better exposure and whichever stream you choose, you will have access to the best minds.

Here is a comparison of IIT Bhubaneswar ECE and NIT Rourkela CSE:

What are some best books for 1st year students in IIEST Shibpur?

AS
Anil Sahani Posted On : February 26th, 2021
Student of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology

The answer to this question may help the student, as my sister was in this place just a year before. However, class notes are the best and real deal, and the students must follow class notes to understand the topic discussed in the class.

Chemistry

  • Class notes are the best, but the students must collect notes from the different departments as well.
  • My sister also followedCastellan for the Physical Chemistry part.

Computing and Programming

  • There are numerous books for Logic Gates and Binary System.
  • C programming course is the main course for this subject and you can follow Let us C for this course.

Basic Electronics Engineering

  • The student must follow the Electronic Devices and Circuit Theory by Boylestad and Nashelsky for this subject. This book contains a number of solved problems.

Mathematics I

  • For this, students can go for Higher Engineering Mathematics by B.S Grewal; this book is also helpful for the second year of study.
  • Besides, the student can also follow A Textbook of Engineering Mathematics Volumes I, II, III, IV by Guruprasad Samanta from their first year to last year’s study.

Mechanics

  • The class notes and the problem sheets are important for this subject and you should solve the problems thoroughly.
  • Besides, they can follow the book with 4 authors, namely, Engineering Mechanics by S.Timoshenko, D H Young, J.V Rao and Sukumar Pati. 

Basic Electrical Engineering

  • Besides regular class notes, the student can go for Basic Electrical Engineering by Abhijit Chakrabarti, Sudipta Nath and Chandan Kumar Chanda, and Basic Electrical Engineering by V.N Mittle and Arvind Mittal to get a good backup.

Mathematics II

  • As it is mentioned in Mathematics I, the Vector Space chapter will be quite troublesome for the students. For Linear Algebra, they can follow the book written by Sheldon Axler.

Physics

  • Students must go for B.K Guha's Degree Physics for Science and Engineering, as this book helps the student keep afloat.
  • They can also follow Ajoy Ghatak for Optics¸, Schaum's Outline of Vector Analysis by Murray Spiegel and Seymour Lipschutz for Vector Algebra¸ Advanced Acoustics by D.P Ray Chaudhri for Acoustics.

From the above, it is cleared that class notes should be the first priority for every student; besides, they can take the book from Ramanujan Central Library. But, they have to be an early bird; otherwise, everything will be stocked out. Students can also find online PDFs for the study if they can’t buy books, as most of the books are expensive enough.

Which is better for cs iit Patna or iit bhu?

SC
Suparana Chatterjee Posted On : August 13th, 2020
B.Tech+M.Tech. from Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi

IIT BHU CSE is better than IIT Patna CSE due to many reasons. First of all, the coding culture at IIT BHU is unparalleled. Although the coding culture at IIT Patna is quite revered, it still does not match IIT BHU. The institute(IIT BHU) also conducts Tech fests(Codefest being a prominent fest). Codefest has been successful in creating a competitive milieu for coding by inviting students from all over the world. The seniors at IIT BHU are very helpful and provides guidance. 
An underpinning feature of IIT BHU is the Internship opportunities that it provides for students. The overall infrastructure of IIT BHU is also better than IIT Patna. While NIRF rankings(2019) rank IIT Patna at an overall rank of 22, IIT BHU is ranked at 11. The overall placement performance and scenario of IIT BHU also better when compared to IIT Patna. In 2019 a total of 66 students were placed with average packages ranging from 10 LPA to 58.21 LPA from CSE in IIT BHU. However, the 2019 placement highlights of IIT Patna revels 50 students from CSE got a placement with an average package of 13.5 LPA.
IIT BHU also has a vast number of alumni as compared to IIT Patna. Many alumni from IIT BHU CS have secured high echelons in eminent MNCs and PSUs. While some have placed themselves in reputed companies or opted for startups, others pursued further studies in reputed universities of the world. However, considering all the factors, CS at IIT BHU is definitely a better choice as compared to CS at IIT Patna.
