Which IIT is better for civil, IIT Indore or IIT Patna?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : June 17th, 2023

IIT Indore is one of the leading new IITs that has made its name because of its multiple achievements. Here is exactly why you should give more preference to IIT Indore than IIT Patna. 

  • The faculties are very approachable and cooperative. They guide you to do projects and even motivate you for research work. Additionally, they teach you tactics to clear GRE and GATE for top universities and PSU respectively. Such kind of guidance isn’t available at every institute.
  • The faculty-to-student ratio is great around 12 - 13 faculties for 40 students. This helps the students to get individual attention from faculty who track the personal and individual growth of every student. 
  • IIT Indore has ties with the University of Stuttgart, Germany enabling students to do internships in the second year. 
  • The students' demands are given due importance and the HODs bring all necessary changes demanded by the students to make things easy. 
  • IIT Indore being new has top-notch labs with all modern equipment and instruments.

In all, IIT Indore is a great choice for Civil Engineering.

Is MSc in astronomy preferable at IIT Indore?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : June 20th, 2023

The MSc in Astronomy at IIT Indore is a recently launched program and it’s difficult to determine its worth and credibility just yet. IIT Indore is the only IIT to offer such a unique program. The entrance to this program is through the JAM (physics) examination. Here is why it should be preferred 

  • Job opportunities for this program are present both in academia and industry 
  • Research work positions are present in universities, observatories, and research institutes.
  • Teaching positions at various colleges and universities in India are also a good option for the students of this program.

However, IIT Indore MSc Astronomy will restrict your research area to astronomy only. So, this program should be taken only if you are certain of doing full-time research in Astronomy. If you want to explore other fields of Physics then go for MSc Physics from any other IIT.

  • The small batch size makes IIT Indore look like a close-knitted family. The relationship between seniors and juniors is great. Here, you will get a chance to discover yourself by exposing yourself to versatile things like calling companies for sponsorship and working on new start-ups and projects.
  • Big changes are visible in the OR/CR of the Electrical and Mechanical branches proving the credibility of the new IITs further.

Which branch is better to join, CSE at IIT Indore or MNC (mathematics and computing) at IIT Guwahati?

SD
Souvick Das Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Software Engineer at Microsoft

My brother was in a similar dilemma last year when he had to choose between MnC IIT Guwahati and CSE IIT Indore. Eventually, he went for IIT Indore CSE. The main reason he decided against going for the MnC program was his lack of interest in Math. And when we talk about Math at IIT, trust me when I say it’s at another level. It’s purely proof-based and high-level Math that can be handled only by true Math lovers. The academic workload is also high with 60% Math and 40% CS courses.

Now, here are a few points that might convince you to join IIT Indore instead

  • IIT Indore qualified for ACM-ICPC World Finals thrice. This in itself is quite an achievement considering this event's importance.
  • As per HackerRank, IIT Indore is said to have the best coders in the whole country. Additionally, it’s at the 8th position globally for the best coders
  • IIT Indore has an extensive alumni base who completed their Master's from top foreign universities like Stanford, Caltech, University of Columbia. Many talented alumni also increase the credibility of the institute by working at reputed firms like Google and Facebook.
  • This year, the CS department recorded 100% placements with the highest and average packages standing at INR 48.5 LPA and INR 30.32 LPA respectively.

Overall, IIT Indore CSE is a much better choice than MnC IIT Guwahati considering the work of and job opportunities.

What should I choose: IIT Indore CSE or BITS Pilani EEE?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : June 20th, 2023

When faced with a similar situation different people make different choices. There is no right choice as it’s a matter of personal preference. IIT Indore CSE and BITS Pilani EEE are both lucrative options and thus only your personal choices can determine the right one. 

There are some who wish to grab the IIT tag and want to take CS because the branch is a major crowd-puller. While some want to experience the brand and prestige of the old BITS Pilani. 

I would suggest you go for IIT Indore as the small batch size has its own benefits and moreover, IIT Indore has been growing quickly and seems to give more promising results in the future. The small batch size gives the vibe of a small family and you will love the bond here. BITS Pilani on the other hand has its own aura with Meritocracy as the mantra but its high fees are a major issue. 

Both the institutes are equally good and choosing one of the other wouldn’t be a regretful decision.

How is the MS for Computer Science at IIT Indore (faculty, placements, infrastructure, etc.)?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : June 20th, 2023

MS by Research in Computer Science and Engineering is a 2-year full-time PG engineering program offered by IIT Indore. The MS in Computer Science at IIT Indore is a great option if you are a research enthusiast and are willing to pursue a career in the same. 

The faculty does not matter much as you will be dealing with them only during the first-semester post which you will have been assigned a professor under whom you will be doing your research work.

Placements-wise not much can be said as it’s a recently launched program and it will take a few more years to make its mark. However, the opportunities seem to be very promising.

The infrastructure is great although the campus is still undergoing development so you can expect better infrastructure in the future.

Overall, the MS in Computer Science from IIT Indore is a great option for research lovers.

What is lacking in the newer IITs (Patna, Indore, Jodhpur, etc.) that cause them to become less preferred by students?

Namrata Das Posted On : June 17th, 2023

I refuse to believe that the new IITs are less preferred by students considering their exponential growth and achievements. I don’t think that the new IITs are lacking in any way be it the campus or the placements. Most new IITs are now operating from their own modern campus with top-notch infrastructure. The average packages of the new IITs again prove that they are nowhere inferior. 

The reason why some are preferred over others is simply because of location. Initially, Andhra Pradesh had the maximum number of selections in JEE so the IIT Hyderabad's opening and closing rank was better than other new IITs. Also, Hyderabad enjoys a better location than Indore. Personally, I believe if you are able to make it into the new IITs then getting old IITs isn’t difficult either. This proved that the new IITs are doing well and aren’t lacking in any aspect.
