Which one is better: IT in IIIT Allahabad or CSE in BITS Goa?

MS
Muktesh Shukla Posted On : March 21st, 2023
Studied at the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (IIIT Allahabad)

The IT degree at IIIT Allahabad is considered one of the best in India, and it is aligned with the CSE curriculum from the best IITs and NITs in India. The professors are a mixed bag, with some highly qualified, doing good research, and teaching well, while some may be uninteresting. However, with some self-motivation, the academic landscape is quite good. 

IIIT Allahabad has a great culture for programming, which can help you become a serious developer. The infrastructure is good, the campus is green, and the architecture is impressive, with the added benefit of being centrally air-conditioned.

On the downside, the city life in Allahabad is not great, especially if you come from a metro city. You may experience a cultural shock. The research environment is not exceptional, and there are only a handful of students aspiring to pursue higher education. You will find yourself in a batch of more than 200 students, in which you have to create your own identity. The weather is terrible, with extremely hot summers and cold winters (although some people may like the winters). The sports infrastructure is not the most amazing one.

In summary, here's the verdict:

  • If you're interested in research and want to pursue technical education further in your career, BITS Goa may be the right choice for you.
  • If you want a great Indian IT job after your degree, IIIT Allahabad may be the right choice for you.
  • If you're looking for a better peer group, better girls, and a more happening city life, BITS Goa may be the right choice for you.
  • If you're serious about programming and have a penchant for Competitive Programming, IIIT Allahabad may be the right choice for you.

Which is better CSE from BPIT or IT from MSIT (second shift)?

SK
Subhash Kataria Posted On : June 10th, 2021
Studied at Bhagwan Parshuram Institute of Technology

MSIT is definitely better than BPIT when it comes to computer science engineering. BPIT is not that bad but not as good when compared to MSIT.

Placements at BPIT are getting better each year but MSIT is still leading. The table below should provide you with a better perspective on the same:

College name

Average package

Highest package

Hiring companies

MSIT

INR 4 to 8 LPA

INR 21 LPA

MU Sigma, Jaro Education, Amazon, Google, Ion Trading

BPIT

INR 3.95 LPA

INR 10 LPA

HSBC, BYJU’s, Mavenhive, Hashedin Technologies, Infosys

Overall, there isn’t much difference between the two colleges. If you are planning to pursue your post-graduate studies, the college will probably not matter but your studies definitely will. You should also take into account the distance you might have to travel every day which could play a major role.

My suggestion to you would be to write down the pros and cons of both the colleges and see which matters more. Is it the college name or the college stream?

Which is better: CSE at BIT Mesra or IT at NIT Allahabad?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : August 9th, 2023

It’s highly illogical to compare BIT Mesra with NIT Allahabad. MNNIT Allahabad belongs to a different league and is way better than BIT Mesra. Its CS and IT placements are surprisingly better than the new IITs too.

The best part about MNIT Allahabad is its extensive job opportunities. Companies coming for CS students allow IT and ECE students to sit for placements as well. So all you need to do is become proficient in coding and clear the interview smartly. 

Here is a comparative analysis of the placement statistics of BIT Mesra CS and MNNIT Allahabad IT

Should I go to LPU (Lovely Professional University) or Manipal University Jaipur for a B.Tech (IT)?

A
Admin Posted On : May 4th, 2024

As a former student of B.Tech IT at LPU, I can only provide information about my own college. Here are a few benefits of joining LPU for your B.Tech IT-

  1. Scholarships - LPU offers scholarships to those who perform well in 12th grade or various entrance exams. These scholarships continue for the entire B.Tech course. This brings down the course fee for meritorious students by a great extent. 
  2. Placements- The university performs quite well in IT placements. Companies like HTC and Cognizant visit the campus for mass recruitments, and offer decent salary packages to CSE and IT graduates. Other companies recruit a lesser number of students, but they offer handsome salary packages. For a hardworking IT student, LPU offers good placement opportunities.
  3. Faculty- The IT faculty is decent, and some of the teachers are very good.
  4. Exposure- LPU is home to students from various parts of the country, and thus, it offers excellent exposure. Each student gets a platform at LPU to enhance their skills and learn new things.

These are some of the many reasons I chose LPU for my B.Tech IT.

What is your review for MVJ College of Engineering for information science?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : December 15th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

According to me, the Information Science and Engineering program at MVJCE Bangalore is good. This is my opinion not because I have completed the same degree from this college, but because I have friends who’ve been to other colleges for the same (or similar) course.

The curriculum at MVJCE is similar to other engineering colleges, but there are certain advantages to pursuing Information Science from there. The department faculty is not only highly educated, but skilled in teaching as well. They were always very supportive, and made us understand the practical applications of each and every concept.

Apart from that, the college placement cell also does a decent job. It was particularly my teachers whose support enabled me to grab a well paying job during campus placements.

Which is better, VNIT for metallurgy or NIT Raipur for IT?

KM
Kaushal Madnani Posted On : April 15th, 2021
VNIT, Graduated 2019

One of my acquaintances who has graduated from VNIT has asked me to choose my institute by keeping the following points in mind.

  • VNIT for metallurgy would be a suitable choice for you if you don’t have a particular liking. Apart from that, the metallurgy of VNIT holds an enviable position in India. The syllabus for metallurgy is vast and involves a lot of memorization.
  • If you want CS and unfortunately end up not getting it, the next logical step would be to choose IT. The syllabus of IT and CS are almost the same. In the big picture, it will have little importance if you complete your B.Tech from VNIT or NIT Raipur. You will have a degree and you will not regret the decision you made.

IT has a lot of scopes. Later down the road, if you want to continue with your higher studies, you will be capable of switching to almost any department pertaining to computers. IT from NIT Raipur is an excellent choice.

The scope in the metallurgy sector is limited nowadays. It is obviously your call, though. There is vast scope in IT like research, job, etc.

How many marks are required to get an admission in NIT Warangal CSE, IT or in the electronics branch?

SS
Shivani Singh Posted On : August 19th, 2023

To get admission into NITW, you need to secure a certain rank in the JEE Mains exam. 

These are the closing ranks for round 6 of JoSAA counseling to get admission into these branches at NIT Warangal, for 2023:

Out of the branches mentioned by you, NIT Warangal does not provide B.Tech IT. You can also check the 2023-2024 cutoffs of other branches and categories for NITW

However, I would like to tell highlight a few things-

  1. Electronics and Electrical value your ability to remember random figures rather than polishing your technical knowledge. 
  2. The syllabus and question paper for both these courses is below par at NIT Warangal. The syllabus for them is outdated.
  3. Placements are high at NITW, but software profiles are mostly offered. 
  4. Most students start coding from their pre-final year because of low placement chances in the core companies of other disciplines. 
  5. The college infrastructure and hostel facilities may disappoint you. 

Government colleges other than IIT D, B, and K are lagging behind in reality.

They have subpar infrastructure and their administration is old and rigid. They offer no extra support and opportunities to their students. All of this combined with the rigorous academic schedule causes plenty of frustration.

Which is the better option; doing computer engineering at SVNIT-Surat, Gujarat or b.tech in ict at DA-IICT Gandhinagar, Gujarat?

Namrata Das Posted On : January 3rd, 2024

I am a resident of Surat, and SVNIT is very close to my house. During my college admissions, I was in the same dilemma. So I spent about a week at both the colleges to make a more informed choice.

One of the professors at SVNIT suggested that I opt for B.Tech ICT at DAIICT over Computer Engineering at SVNIT. He told me that DAIICT is a better option for computer related branches. Here are some pros of joining DAIICT as a B.Tech ICT student-

  1. The placements at DAIICT are comparatively better.
  2. Though the NITs have an established brand name, the reputation of DAIICT is better than SVNIT in top companies like Amazon, Morgan Stanley, MAQ, etc.
  3. It has a greater number of GSoC qualifiers, and a better environment for Open Source Coding.
  4. The environment is superior for competitive coding as well, and students participate in great numbers in online programming contests on platforms like codeforces, etc.
  5. A large number of students prepare for exams like GRE, CAT, etc.

Thus, a B.Tech ICT at DAIICT is better in comparison to Computer Engineering at SVNIT.

Which is better: IT at NITK or CSE at NITC?

KS
Khushi Sharma Posted On : August 21st, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal (2019)

NIT Surathkal IT is far superior to NIT Calicut. It is well-known in India for its CSE/IT branches. It is a highly regarded engineering college in India, and after four years of B.Tech college, the specific branch does not matter.

NITK outperforms Calicut in terms of reputation and placements. Furthermore, because of the higher cutoffs, the quality of students may be slightly higher here.

IT at NITK is nearly equivalent to CSE here. During placements, nearly all companies open to CS are open for IT as well.

Categories IT at NITK CSE at NITC
Course fee 5.40 lakhs 5.42 lakhs
Placement rate 92% 85%
Average salary package 8 LPA 8.1 LPA
Highest salary package 35 LPA 36 LPA

The subjects taught and the syllabus in both departments are also similar. In fact, the IT department may be slightly better than the CS department in terms of facilities and infrastructure, as it is newer. Previously, the quality of students in CS was higher than in IT, but with significant increases in IT cutoffs, both are now equally good.
