What is the better option between IIIT Vadodara and MIT, Manipal?

AM
Akshat Mehta Posted On : June 19th, 2021
CSE, IIIT Vadodara, 2021

If you want to either choose between CSE or IT, then going for IIIT Vadodara will be a better option. IIIT Vadodara is a government-run institute, while MIT Manipal is a private university.

  • However, IIIT Vadodara cannot provide you with the same facilities as MIT Manipal can, since it is a newly developed institute and is at present running on a temporary campus. Yet, it has shown noticeable changes in its development. The curriculum precisely concentrates on subjects that are related to either CSE or IT.
  • Now, when talking about the fee structure of each institute, MIT Manipal has almost double the fees as opposed to IIIT Vadodara, since it is a private university.
  • Moreover, the average package at IIIT Vadodara has also seen a potential hike to around 6.5 Lacs in the year 2019 from 4 Lacs in the year 2017. It was its first placement session. However, the average package at MIT Manipal is nearly about 5.5 to 6 Lacs.

Here is a brief highlight of both of the institutes according to the 2020 placement reports.

Which should I prefer, SVNIT mechanical or IIIT Vadodara computer science?

SR
Suchismita Roy Posted On : July 5th, 2021

If you are not looking at the branch, then you should think about going to SVNIT for Mechanical. Having friends study in both the institutes, I might be able to provide some details about them.

However, if you have decided that you would like to go for computers and if you could handle that field, IIIT Vadodara is a pretty good choice.

But many people will also advise you to not compare the two branches as they are quite different. NIT Surat is a better option facility wise but let me tell you that getting a job in the mechanical core is quite difficult. A lot of students will also opt for software fields.

Should I prefer IIIT Bhubaneswar, IIIT Vadodara, or IIIT Una?

KP
Kritika Kumari Pathak Posted On : June 29th, 2021
CSE at IIIT Vadodara (2017)

Here is a brief overview of each one of them that might help you choose the best.

IIIT Bhubaneswar: It has been recognized as an International Institute of Information Technology, where the first 50% of the seats are primarily reserved for the Odisha category, while the other 50% is decided upon the JEE Mains. The placement is comparably the same as IIIT Vadodara and in terms of infrastructure, it is largely adequate too.

IIIT Vadodara: The campus is as of now temporarily functioning at GEC Gandhinagar, Gujarat. However, it still has a very reputed technical culture surrounding students, as well as the placements, are continually hiking each year. It is proof of how it is rapidly growing. The hostels of the institute are extremely good, as opposed to most of the other IIITs.

IIIT Una: It was established after IIIT Vadodara. It is at present functioning from NIT. It, unfortunately, has poor transportation facilities.

Nonetheless, for a better idea, here is a brief highlight of each institute’s placement stats for the year 2020.

IIIT Vadodara is a newly established institute and is at present operating through its transit campus. That clearly means it is not fair to compare it with an old reputed institute like Thapar University.

The first batch of IIIT Vadodara graduated back in 2017 and you can find the details of that batch on their official websites.

However, here is a brief overview of the 2020 placement reports of both institutes.

Which is better, IIIT Vadodara or the government engineering college, Aurangabad?

PS
Pratyush Singh Posted On : July 15th, 2021
B.A. in Philosophy & U.G. Krishnamurti, Patna University (2020)

As per my sister’s experience at IIIT Vadodara, despite being a newly established one, it is a better choice than Government Engineering College, Aurangabad.

GECA Aurangabad has, unfortunately, lost its touch when compared to the other old institutes. The faculty in the college does not have the relevant experience. Some of them do not even have post-graduate degrees. During the placement process, no product-based companies visited the campus and the students ended up getting placed in jobs with low packages.

IIIT Vadodara, on the contrary, was mentored by the Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology (DAIICT). It is one of the best institutes for IT in the country. The students can get ample exposure to technology and gain experience in both field and professional activities with the help of experts from industries who engage in mentoring the students. IIIT Vadodara is rapidly improving.

What should I opt for if I am getting into IIIT Vadodara & IIEST Shibpur?

RP
Riyaz Pathan Posted On : June 29th, 2021
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2019)

One of my friends, who attended IIEST, says that IIEST Shibpur will be a better option than IIIT Vadodara. He also mentions several reasons why. Here is what he has to say,

Institute of National Importance:

IIEST Shibpur is amongst the very few institutes that are at present recognized as an “Institute of National Importance”. There are various other institutes competing for the same status, such as BHU, Jadavpur University, CUSAT, COE Pune, Osmania University, AMU, Andhra University, and more.

Alumni Base:

The institute has a legacy of over 160 years with a wide alumni network spread across the globe who are now engaged with top engineering companies in places like US, UK, Canada, and India as well. A few of them are Dr. Bimal Kumar Bose (USA), Dr. Fazlur Rahman Khan (USA). The directors of IIT Kanpur, IIT Guwahati, NIT Rourkela, and the Vice-Chancellor of SRM University are some of the institute’s alumni.
Several IIEST Alumni from USA, UK, Canada, Europe, Australia, Singapore and Japan also come forward to help regarding cases like Scholarships, Travel Grants, Sponsored Research, Chair Professors, and others to develop the institute more.

Collaborations:

Besides, IIEST Shibpur also collaborates with various top US universities, such as University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign, USA, and University of Wisconsin - Madison USA. It collaborates with top leading universities from places like the USA, UK, Canada, Japan, and Australia to help students pursue their studies abroad.
Having said that, you can visually determine that IIEST Shibpur can be considered better than IIIT Vadodara. It is also partially because IIIT Vadodara is relatively a newly built institute still establishing many sections under it.

How is IT at IIIT Vadodara?

IP
Isha Pandey Posted On : July 15th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior (2020)

One of my seniors was a student of IIIT Vadodara and he praised how academics were carried out in the institute. The faculty in the institute is highly qualified and has a lot of experience in the field they are teaching. They have PhDs from premier universities. IIIT Vadodara grants admission to applicants based on their applications.

IIIT Vadodara is popular because of its CSE and IT programs. In addition to that, the institute also offers courses in management and ones related to business which also attracts its fair share of applicants. However, if you want to study hardware and CS in theory, you will probably be disappointed.

The institute is currently in operation from the GEC campus which is Gandhinagar, Gujarat. IIIT Vadodara is very popular for its coding culture and has a reputation for recruiting companies like ICICI Bank, Mathworks, and Amazon.
