Should I join MANIT (NIT Bhopal) Chemical Engineering while I get CSE at IIIT Sri city? I've no particular inclination towards any branch.

Why do you want to opt for engineering? Is it because you enjoy Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics? If that’s the reason, then there are two possibilities for you.

Joining IIIT Sri City for CSE-

  • You can sharpen your coding skills and work better on Computer Science learning more about ethical hacking, cybersecurity, etc. This is how CSE would prove to be fruitful to you.
  • But if we perceive the other side of the situation, if you do not hold any interest here, you might find it hard to cope with and eventually lose interest. Since IIIT Sri City is a new college, it will not be able to impart the essential communication/soft skills to you.

Joining Chemical Engineering at MANIT Bhopal-

  • Apart from developing a great interest in Chemical Engineering, you have the opportunities to either go for higher education via GRE or ensure placement via GATE.
  • But again, comparing the other side of the situation, if Chemical Engineering does not spark your interest, you can go for other domains like Management. MANIT offers all the adequate communication/soft skills that would be essential for that.

If you have no particular inclination, then choosing CSE may be better. As it has two domains, i.e. coding and non-coding. Plus, the internet is full of great ebooks and tutorials to teach you.

How many people are allotted in a hostel room at IIIT Sri City?

B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Sri City (2021)

My cousin studied at IIT Sri City and he had a hostel room for himself. The hostel life seemed to be very dull and uneventful however the facilities were on point.

  • He was in the twin sharing boys hostel where summers were difficult to pass as it was non AC.
  • The hostels allowed students to bring home coolers, after checking with the authorities.
  • The washrooms were common as well, so be prepared for long queues.
  • The girls’ hostel has 2 BHK rooms which are non-furnished which means you have to bring your own stuff in accordance with the rules for or against items to be kept in a room.
  • 7 girls can easily stay in these 2 BHK flats while 3 BHK are non-AC and 9 students can live there.

Even though the rooms are not fully furnished, each student will still be given a table and a chair to study.

Can I (OBC, AP) get CS in IIIT Sri City for a 96.5 percentile?

KS
Krishna Srivastav Posted On : July 9th, 2021
B.Tech CSE, IIIT Sri City (2018)

In IIIT Sri City, an OBC candidate from Andhra Pradesh with a 96.5 percentile score has some chances of getting a seat in Computer Science, which depends on certain factors.

In recent years, the closing rank for OBC candidates was 41400 for Computer Science. A candidate having a 96.5 percentile score is expected to have a general merit rank of about 40,000. So, you may get selected for admission with a 96.5 percentile

However, the OBC rank equivalent to general merit rank changes every year, depending upon the number of students applied from the same category.

How are the placements in IIIT Sri City?

UN

Studied at Narayana Junior College, Visakhapatnam (2018)

My friend is a pass out from IIIT Sri City and was placed at a well-reputed company. According to his experience, the secret to their great placement record is their curriculum.

As we all know that IIIT Hyderabad is the mentor institute of IIIT Sri City, it gets excellent faculty and placement assistance. The curriculum is totally different compared to NITs and IITs, so you will have a year of advantage over others because in IIITs there is no PCM in the first year.

You will be taught core subjects in depth from the first year itself, unlike regular B.Tech. This is a major plus point that helps train you enough for the placements later. Currently, the average package at IIIT Sri City is about 8–9 LPA and the highest is 24 LPA.

You might also get offered semester-long internships out of India in which you will get paid too.

Here is a list of some companies who recruit at IIIT Sri City:

  • C A Technologies
  • Michelin Tyres
  • Seedo Labs
  • Smart Pix
  • O C Tanner
  • HSBC Bank
  • Mac Software
  • Perceptive Analytics
  • Spring M L
  • Glocal Health Care
  • Byju’s
  • Flipkart (Operations)
  • Zipper Technologies
  • Apache Footwear

However, the placement package and company also depend on your skills and capabilities. So, you will need to strictly adhere to their curriculum to climb the ladder of success. Also, in case you miss the campus placements, the rigorous curriculum and training will make you capable of getting any good-paying job outside the campus.

Which college is better between IIIT Bhubneshwar, IIIT Delhi, IIIT Kota, IIIT Vadodara, IIIT Lucknow, IIIT NR, IIIT Trichy, IIIT Sri City, IIIT Guwahati, and IIIT Kalyani for CSE/IT, in terms of fee s

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : October 5th, 2023

Here is the best preference order you can refer to while choosing one IIIT from the long list you mentioned. I have considered all parameters including placements, coding culture, research, infrastructure, alumni, etc 

  • IIIT Hyderabad
  • IIIT Allahabad = IIIT Delhi
  • IIIT Bangalore
  • IIIT Lucknow 
  • IIIT Sri City = IIIT Gwalior = IIIT Chennai = IIIT Jabalpur
  • IIIT Bhubneshwar = IIIT Guwahati = IIIT Kota
  • IIIT Trichy = IIIT Vadodra = IIIT Kalyani = IIIT NR

If you are genuinely interested in coding or CSE, the best options for you would be IIIT Hyderabad, Allahabad, Bangalore, and Delhi. You can consider the top NITs as excellent options too. These 4 IIITs are the only IIITs that are better than NITs in terms of research, curriculum, and holistic development.

IIIT Lucknow, although a new IIIT, has established its name among the top IIITs. Its high ranking is because of its excellent coding culture and thus many product companies visit it. These 4 IIITs have their own campus too and charge high fees because of the top-notch faculty and research resources they offer.

All the remaining IIITs are in the development stage and should not be given consideration. It’s better to choose the top 7 or 8 NITs than these developing IIITs.

How are the packages being offered at IIIT Sri City Placements 2020?

AC
Arindam Chakraborty Posted On : March 16th, 2021
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Sri City (2020)

Well, the student can visit the official website and get a look at the placement statistics.

With this, the student will understand that one of the third-year students from this institute got an internship in Cisco. This is more or less a dream for the students from the CS department. Besides, students here also have done an internship in different foreign countries.

From the above, the student may get an idea regarding the placement statistics. However, the best thing about this institute is that the companies that are visited here are mainly product-based companies, not service-based companies, but most of them are start-ups. So, if the students do not have an idea about the disparity of these, then it is better to go through the difference, and the student will understand why the placement statistics of this institute are just awesome.

The main consideration is that the companies that come here for recruitment are mostly start-ups.
