Which is better: BITS Pilani Hyd mechanical or VIT Vellore CS?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : June 28th, 2023

Rather than focusing on the institutes, it’s best to give importance to your branch. I know a friend who gave up on BITS Hyderabad Mechanical production for core Mechanical at VIT. When I asked her the reason she told me that for her it was the branch that mattered more and VIT offered the branch of her choice.

So I will advise you to do the same. Analyze where your interests lie and choose the institute accordingly.

What is the base salary if we complete CS from NIT Rourkela and get approximately 7 CGPA? What is the average package I can get?

SM
Subhankar Mitra Posted On : August 14th, 2023
studied at National Institute of Technology, Rourkela

I don't think many companies even consider CGPA as the criteria for evaluating your eligibility to get placed. CSE students especially have to work on their coding and problem-solving skills more than their CGPA. I am not saying CGPA does not matter at all, what I mean is it's not the main criteria. You still need a good CGPA to qualify for the cutoffs set by companies. Most companies are okay with a decent 7 while some even let you sit with a CGPA around 6. Only a few government companies like CDOT and DRDO, set high cutoffs. The number of companies expecting a high CGPA is usually very low.

One of my friends at NIT Rourkela stated that there is no direct connection between your CGPA and the package you receive, rather it all depends on individual skills. If you are a CS student, bear in mind that your interviewer will expect good coding skills in any of the high-level programming languages like C/C++/Java, etc., a strong grasp of data structures and algorithms, basics of operating systems, and some fundamental theoretical concepts of database and networking. Such skills will overcome even your low CGPA. 

NIT Rourkela CSE average package 2023 stood at INR 21.87 LPA . So it can be said that as a NIT Rourkela student, if you have a CGPA of 7+ you will be eligible to sit for placements of most CS companies but your chances of selection depend on the skills you developed through the period of 4 years.

Studied at Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida (2019)

If you're considering pursuing a Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) program in India, you might be interested in comparing the offerings of different institutions. If you're wondering which one of these options, Jaypee Noida (sector-62) or UIET, Chandigarh (Panjab University) might be better for you, here are some reasons why Jaypee Noida might be a good choice:

  • Strong academics and facilities: One of the main advantages of the CSE program at Jaypee Noida is its academic quality. The program is known for its rigorous curriculum, experienced faculty, and modern infrastructure. You'll have access to well-equipped labs, libraries, and other resources that can enhance your learning experience. In addition, the faculty members are reputed in their respective fields and can provide you with valuable guidance and support throughout your academic journey.
  • Location: Another advantage of Jaypee Noida is its location. The institute is situated in Noida, which is a part of the National Capital Region (NCR) of India. This means that you'll be in close proximity to the capital city of Delhi and other major cities in the region. This can provide you with a range of opportunities to explore and learn beyond the campus, such as internships, workshops, and industry visits.
  • Good placements: One of the most important factors to consider when choosing a CSE program is the placement prospects. In this regard, Jaypee Noida is known for its good placement record. The institute has tie-ups with many reputed companies in the IT sector, which visit the campus for recruitment drives. If you perform well in the program and maintain a decent Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA), you'll have a good chance of getting placed in a reputed company with a decent package. It's important to note that a CGPA of above 7 is generally recommended for good placements, and anything above 7.5 can be considered excellent.
  • Programming skills can be an advantage: If you have a strong foundation in programming, this can give you an edge in the placement process. The faculty members and the Head of Department (HOD) at Jaypee Noida are known to be supportive of talented students, and can help you connect with relevant companies for internships and placements. With their guidance and your skills, you may even land a placement in a high-paying startup or company.

In conclusion, if you're looking for a CSE program in India that offers good academics, location, and placement prospects, Jaypee Noida could be a good choice. With its strong faculty, facilities, and industry connections, you can get a solid foundation for a career in the IT sector. However, as with any program, it's important to do your research, consider your own interests and strengths, and make an informed decision based on your individual needs and goals.

Which is best for computer science, NIT Warangal, NIT Suratkhal, NIT Trichy, IIITDelhi, or DTU Delhi?

Namrata Das Posted On : August 16th, 2023

It’s highly illogical to compare DTU or even IIIT Delhi with the top 3 NITs that enjoy the status of Institutes of National Importance. The NITs are second only to the IITs and fall in the same league as old IITs and BITS Pilani. They are way ahead of these Delhi colleges in terms of exposure, placements, and coding culture. 

Despite a huge batch size, DTU has limited offers with good packages. While NIT Warangal has a small batch yet a huge number of students getting above 20 LPA.

NIT Surathkal has an excellent record of GSOC Selections while DTU is not even among the top 12 engineering colleges in terms of GSOC selections. Additionally, NIT Surathkal is the first campus that ATTLASIAN visited for placement. 

Overall, the top 3 NITs are way superior to DTU and IIIT Delhi in terms of peer groups, academics, research, return on Investment, NIRF Ranking, campus life, and brand value.

Personally, I will recommend you to follow the following preference order

NIT Trichy CSE>NIT Surathkal CSE>NIT Warangal CSE>NIT Surathkal Information Technology (IT)>DTU CSE>IIIT Delhi CSE

B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Indore (2020)

My cousin is a student at IIT Indore and is in the CS branch top. Let me share the little information I have regarding the institute.

  • Campus: Spread across 550 acres, the campus is beautiful and lush green. The campus has a modern design and facilities with excellent accommodation facilities too. 
  • Placements: IIT Indore has an excellent placement scenario and its statistics are comparable to the old IITs. The packages offered and visiting companies are more and better than top NITs. CS is the only branch that secured 100% placement with the highest CTC at INR 48.5 LPA and the average at INR 30.32 LPA.
  • Cutoff: IIT Indore has been witnessing an increasing cutoff proving the improvement in the quality of students it attracts. This year the opening rank for CSE is 1144. 
  • College life: IIT Indore has a vibrant and fulfilling college life with various clubs and extracurriculars for the holistic development of its students. 

The campus is forever lively with something or the other happening like fests, joint fests with IIM, coding events, musical nights, DJ nights, festivals, food fiestas, etc

IIT Indore has managed to establish itself well in the IIT race and its excellent work culture in collaborations with big international institutions like CERN signifies its worth and credibility.

Which is better for CS: IIIT Delhi or NIT Kurukshetra?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 7th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Although both IIITs and NITs have a similar brand image, I advise you to keep IIIT Delhi as your first preference. Here are two solid reasons why 

  • Better campus placements: Generally, Government colleges like IITs and NITs do not approach companies for placements like private colleges. So their placements are usually a result of their brand value and location. That being said, IIIT Delhi has an excellent location and therefore attracts many more companies than NIT Kurukshetra.
  • A good environment: The CS-tailored dynamic environment at IIIT Delhi helps improve your aptitude considerably. The crowd at both the colleges might be similar but IIIT Delhi definitely provides a much better exposure outside college. 

So the best option for CS is certainly IIIT Delhi.
