Which will be better, IT at IIIT Allahabad or CS at NIT Allahabad, Surat, Nagpur?

SM
Sudesna Mukharjee Posted On : June 8th, 2021
B.E. Computer Science, Manipal University Jaipur (2020)

CSE at NIT Allahabad will be a better choice than selecting the IT branch at IIIT Allahabad. I have a few friends from NIT A and they vouch for the CSE course.

  • NIT Allahabad is among the top 5 NITs in the country. The faculties, infrastructure, culture. Academics are all good in this college.
  • The branch of CSE will be much better for you than the IT branch because CSE deals with both hardware and software while IT deals with only software.
  • In the future, if you plan on doing a master’s in electronics you will get an advantage over IT degree holders.

The placement statistics of NIT Allahabad are as follows.

Average CTC offered INR 10 LPA.
Highest CTC offered INR 49 LPA.

You will be allowed to sit for placement drives of electronic companies. CSE branch focuses on both job and research while it is mostly job-oriented.

What should I opt for the new IIIT's (Surat, Pune and Bhopal) or an old NIT for CSE?

UZ
Uzma Zarin Posted On : March 25th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior (2021)

Students are advised to opt for new IIITs and old NITs. Any of these would suffice. Students are advised to choose old NITs except the following as they are not good enough with the rankings or with the placements -

  1. NIT Durgapur,
  2. NIT Hamirpur,
  3. NIT Srinagar, and
  4. NIT Agartala.

Any of the institutes, that a student applies to, are good for CSE provided they have a good and knowledgeable faculty as well. Yet, opting for an old NIT would be considered a good decision since nothing can be stated with certainty about the others.

Which is better: CSE in IIT Bhubaneswar/Jodhpur or mechanical at Guwahati/Hyderabad?

DG
Debasree Guha Posted On : July 9th, 2021
Studied at IIEST Shibpur (2019)

The first CSE batch of IIT Bhubaneswar has recently graduated. CSE in the institute has just started a few years back.

On the other hand, CSE has been in IIT Jodhpur since 2008. Both IITs have a good coding culture. A friend of mine from high school used to be a student of IIT Jodhpur and he will always recommend the institute with the highest respect.

  • The branches that are circular, like CS, EE, ECE, EEE will always be better than other branches.
  • These branches that are mentioned will provide the students with a lot of opportunities for employment.
  • A lot of his seniors as well as students from other IITs have told him that opting for circuital branches will open a lot of doors in the future.

He has also been told that placements for mechanical engineering and other branches are not that good and it takes the companies some convincing to visit the campus and offer the students jobs. Circuital branches give you a lot of action and companies do hire students from those branches. There is no point whatsoever in joining CSE if you want to pursue mechanical engineering.

Studied at IIITM Gwalior
If you are studying Computer Science Engineering at IIITM Gwalior, you can expect your batch mates who scored less than 10K in JEE Main to have a better quality than those at VIT and Thapar. By studying at IIITM, you can enjoy better recognition since it is an institute of national importance.

Which college should i prefer for cse lnct bhopal or niit neemrana ?

SB
Siddha Bhattacharya Posted On : September 3rd, 2021
B.Tech Computer Networking & TALF, NIIT University, Neemrana (2017)

Having to know some people studying in both LNCT Bhopal and NIIT Neemrana, I would suggest you go for NIIT Neemrana due to their quality of education. Nowadays, if the correct set of teaching staff and practical labs are provided, any university can enable its students to excel in their preferred domains.

Let me mention some reasons of choosing NIIT University over LNCT Bhopal -

  • Students here get the best academic and industrial exposure.
  • The curriculum is planned with the right mix of research and industry-relevant subjects taught through project-based learning. 
  • NIIT offers a separate, optional minor certificate program that runs parallel to the degree program.
  • Undergraduate students are expected to work on an R&D Project right from their first year.
  • Credits are given for co-curricular activities.
  • Internships, seminars, etc are conducted for students, to get accustomed to the work culture.
  • NIIT offers the best technology and management programs. It provides support to encourage students to start their business ventures.
  • All the batches have had a track record of 100% placement. 
  • Leading companies like IBM, PwC, and TCS recruit students.
  • Student clubs and sports are also held.
  • The campus location is in the pristine Aravalli hills. Also, being just 90 minutes away from IGI Airport, being in Delhi is a major advantage.
Categories CSE at NIIT Neemrana
Course Fee 13.20 lakh
Highest CTC 13-16 LPA
Average CTC 6-7 LPA
Lowest CTC 3 LPA

When you start your educational journey at NIIT, you don’t just start an academic program, you embrace a new life that will be mentored, motivated, and given an ideal environment to achieve your career dreams.

Which one is better, IIEST Shibpur for IT or NIT Rourkela for CSE?

DS
Davdeep Sengupta Posted On : June 30th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (2018)

I have some friends at IIEST Shibpur and NIT Rourkela and based on what I heard from them, I will suggest that you choose the former. Here is why.

  • NIT Rourkela offers placement opportunities. Also, the companies that visit NIT R are more reputed.
  • Very few companies offer pre-placement offers to IIEST as compared to NIT R.
  • Many reputed companies have blacklisted IIEST Shibpur. Job opportunities available at the campus are quite low. Only a few mass recruiters like TCS, Accenture, Infosys visit the placement drive.
  • Also, securing a placement through off-campus placement will be quite challenging. You will have to have impressive coding skills to get recruited through off-campus placements.

Here are the recent placement statistics at the institutes.

Institute

NIT Rourkela

IIEST Shibpur

Highest CTC

42 LPA

39 LPA

Lowest CTC

3.5 LPA

2.53 LPA

Major recruiters

IBM, Samsung, L&T

Microsoft IDC, Aditya Birla Group

Go for IIEST, only if you are interested in doing research further, you can make some good contact there which will be helpful. But from a placement point of view, NIT R will be better for a CSE course.
