Is Amity University, Noida a better option than KIIT, Bhubaneswar for a B.Tech?

S
Sagardeep Posted On : March 9th, 2023
B.Tech. Aerospace Engineering

If you are considering Amity University, Noida for Engineering, it is recommended that you do not enroll there. According to students who completed their bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering from there, it's a pathetic place to study. They claim that the quality of teaching is very poor, research is nil, and fees are too high. They highly recommend that you join KIIT, Bhubaneswar for a B.Tech, rather than Amity University, Noida.

Based on their experience, they believe that anyone who recommends Amity is either lying or trying to get a commission from you. Therefore, it's advised that you look into other options and do your research before making a decision on where to pursue your engineering degree.

Here is a video comparing these top engineering colleges

Which one is better, NIT or NSIT?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 23rd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Both NITs and NSUT have their own plus and minus points. Let us look at a few plus points of NSUT Delhi-

  1. Placements - It has better placements than all the NITs, DTU, and even a few IITs.
  2. Location - It has a locational advantage as it is in Delhi. Also, it is located near the metro station, so you can travel across Delhi quite easily.
  3. Campus - The campus is good. The academic, administrative, and other departments are located near each other. There is a large playground, sports facilities, and a running track. Parts of the campus are covered in a lush green forest. 
  4. Faculty - The faculty consists of two kinds of teachers. First are those who teach really well, are regular, and give good assignments and valuable learnings. They are supportive and encourage the students to indulge in project work.

The second category consists of those who are there just for the sake of it.

But even NITs have a similar situation in this regard.

In terms of project opportunities, lab facilities, technical fests, and technical societies, the NITs are a better choice. 

Depending on your priorities, you can choose between the two. NSUT Delhi is a great choice if you wish to study over there.

Which is better, Thiagarajar or Velammal, in Madurai?

DT
Dikshant Tyagi Posted On : June 8th, 2021
BE Mechanical Engineering, Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Madurai, Tamil Nadu (2017)

One of my friends at Thiagarajar College said that it is so much better than Velammal. He also mentioned that your branch will also play a big role while choosing a college.

The following perks of Thiagarajar College of Engineering (TCE) will certainly pull you towards it.

  • It is ranked 29th, next to IITs and NITs, and has the best infrastructure and curriculum.
  • Research and Development facilities are good. The institute takes responsibility for the funding and execution of students' projects.
  • There are more than 200 faculties well experienced and supportive.
  • The alumni network of TCE is extremely strong. Every top university in the World like MIT, UBC has at least 1 TCE alumni there.
  • They have their own entrepreneurship development cell to bring out the true managerial strength within you.
  • College culture and ambiance are incomparable to any other colleges in Tamilnadu.

The placement is also good. Take a look at the following table to know the details:

Categories Thiagarajar College Velammal
Course Fee 2 lakhs 2 lakhs
Highest CTC 19.5 LPA 17 LPA
Average CTC 4.5 LPA 4 LPA
Recruiting Companies Dell, Delta Electronics, IBM, VMware, etc. Wipro, Zoho, Tata, Infosys, etc.

There are no dreams of you that Thiagarajar cannot support. The institute is not always focused on studies. If you get a seat at Thiagarajar College Of Engineering go for it without any second thought.

Which is better, VIT Chennai or IET Lucknow?

AB
Anushua Banerjee Posted On : August 18th, 2022
Studied at Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow

IET Lucknow is better. Being a Govt. institute it charges a lower course fee. If you are planning on preparing for competitive examinations like CAT, GATE, GRE, etc. IET will be the right choice. The college schedule is flexible and leaves a lot of room for exploring other interests. Lucknow has good coaching institutes for competitive examinations. At IET, you will meet seniors who have qualified GATE, CAT, GRE, etc. They will be able to guide you regarding preparations.

Which is better option in terms of placement and standard of life, civil branch of hbti or mech of IET lucknow, reply with factual data?

SN
Sakshi Nathu Posted On : August 5th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, Harcourt Butler Technical University, Kanpur (2021)

I have a friend studying at IET Lucknow from the Civil branch. I will not be able to tell you about HBTI but I can guide you in the case of IET.

  • The mechanical branch of IET is the best in the entire college in terms of studies.
  • The faculty of the mechanical department is the best and you would not regret pursuing B. Tech in mechanical engineering from IET Lucknow. The faculty teaches better than what the students are taught in coachings (as per mechanical students).
  • But as far as placement is considered, it is almost nil. The only companies that visit are from the IT sector. Even if a core company visits (rare chance), just a few students get placed. So, I would recommend you not to join IET if your parameters are good placements.
  • Considering the college tag, HBTI is a renowned college but IET is also not unfamiliar. IET is well known among IIT professors.

The following table shows the placement statistics of both institutions:

Particulars IET (Mechanical) HBTI (Civil)
Placement percent 30% 45%
Highest salary INR 11 LPA INR 9 LPA
Average salary INR 7 LPA INR 7 LPA
Top recruiters Tata, Hero, Naini Papers Hindalco cement, Ambuja cement, LnT

Being from IET is also not bad, though not comparable to being from Harcourt.

What's better, project management at NITIE or VJTI?

VM
Ved Mehta Posted On : August 16th, 2021
MBA from National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2019)

Having to know some people from both these institutions, I can say that both of these colleges are specialized in two different fields. Let me share some facts about both these colleges I gathered by interacting with them.

  • VJTI is one of the prominent engineering colleges and NITIE is prominent among the top B-schools of India. 
  • NITIE is recognized for its extensive alumni and professional professors who are experts in their fields. 
  • Project Management at NITIE, in terms of studies, is the best among the B-schools in the country.
  • From Project Management at VJTI, 18% of the students are placed in prominent companies.
  • NITIE is known for its high management extension.
  • The placement and faculty of VJTI are not up to the mark when compared to NITIE.
Categories Project Management at NITIE Project Management at VJTI
Course Fee 12.53 lakh 1.65 lakh
Highest CTC 22 LPA -
Average CTC 14 LPA 5.5-6 LPA
Recruiting Companies Deloitte, Dabur, KPMG, Marico, etc. Bank of America, Barclays, Capgemini, Crisil, etc.

Hence, there is no comparison between VJTI and NITIE. But one of my friends has recommended NITIE as in many aspects it manages to be better than VJTI.

Which is better: Silicon Institute of Technology or KIIT? Why?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : July 26th, 2023

I will compare SIT and KIIT on certain parameters-

  • Fees- KIIT charges around 2.5 times more than SIT.
  • Curriculum- In terms of curriculum, KIIT has the upper hand. KIIT is a university while SIT is a part of BPUT. The curriculum and paper-checking patterns of BPUT are quite vague and not that good.
  • Infrastructure- KIIT has a far better infrastructure than SIT. SIT lags behind in terms of infrastructure. SIT provides really slow wifi on campus.
  • Academics, Research, and Faculty- The faculty at SIT is better than KIIT. KIIT offers decent research opportunities but its students do not take much interest in the same. 

The teachers in SIT are partial. The study environment is lenient and students who do not even study also end up scoring an 8 CGPA. In KIIT, however, the academic situation is even worse.  

  • Location- Although both institutions are not very far from each other, KIIT has a better location because SIT campus has mobile network issues.
  • Campus Placements-  KIIT offers good placements, and packages can cross 6.5 LPA. However, more mass recruiters offering 3-4 LPA jobs visit the SIT campus. KIIT also has a good number of mass recruiters visiting the campus though.
  • Fests and Events- KIIT holds fests and events for its students. On the other hand, SIT mostly has no events and even if something does take place, the students of SIT itself end up performing.

I would suggest you choose KIIT because if you work hard enough, you can end up in a company like SAP Labs with a good package. SIT offers only average placement opportunities for which the packages range from 3-4 LPA. You can choose SIT if you wish to go for higher studies.

Which is better VIT Chennai or PEC Chandigarh?

KM
Krishna Mathur Posted On : May 4th, 2021
B.Tech from Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh

VIT is better as it has more than 200 companies coming for CSE students. If the student wants to go into a college with better placements or better exposure. 

The table shows a brief overview of the institution:

Particulars

PEC Chandigarh

VIT Chennai

Average Salary

Rs. 8-10 lakhs

Rs. 7.25 lakhs

Highest Salary

Rs. 45 lakhs

Rs. 41.6 lakhs

Entrance Criteria

JEE Main

VITEEE

Fees

Rs. 6.39 lakhs

Rs. 4.84-7.8 lakhs

  • The intake of students in VIT is not great as students above the rank of 2000 in VITEEE join some other colleges. 
  • VIT has seats for merit up to only 6000 rank holders in CSE. Concluding only one thing that 80% of those 1300 VIT CSE students get through management quota. So, if the student is worthy then they will find themselves humiliated with children who come there through management quota.
  • That's why even if the student gets a lower branch in PEC, take it as PEC is the legacy of notable alumni and will continue to remain. 
  • Unless you have a certain inclination towards some branch then do opt for PEC the student will never regret it.

It is not possible to decide your inclination just after completing 12th as there is plenty of knowledge awaiting. When you take a branch that you probably didn’t realize in school also the placements in PEC are nice now it is on par with VIT. Overall, PEC is the potential choice.

What should my preference be for IIIT Vadodara, IIIT Surat, IIIT Sonepat, and IIIT Kurnool?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : July 26th, 2023

I have friends in all the aforementioned colleges and thus am writing this answer based on collective experiences only. From the reviews of their respective colleges, I arrived at the conclusion that IIIT Sonepat is the best option among all these. 

IIIT Sonepat fairs are better than the aforementioned institutes in terms of infrastructure, placement fees, etc. Here are a few strong reasons to choose IIIT Sonepat

  • Sonepat enjoys a good location advantage being located just half an hour away from Delhi.
  • Located near DU IIT Delhi and other institutes, you can easily enjoy their fests.
  • IIIT Sonepat is located in Delhi,  the educational hub so it offers better coaching opportunities.
  • IIIT Sonepat has an excellent growth rate in comparison to other IIIT's.

Moreover, judging by my friends' experiences, the preference order I can up with is

IIIT Sonepat>>>>IIIT Surat >IIIT Vadodara>IIIT Kurnool
