Which is better in terms of placements KIIT SRM or UPES?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : July 26th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

KIIT, SRM, and UPES are some of the best private colleges in India. Placement statistics change for every college according to year and branch. I am a B.Tech CSE student and therefore, my answer will talk especially about the CSE branch.

In KIIT, around 90% of the students get placed as the placement season starts. Companies mostly require a 6-6.5 CGPA and the cutoffs can go to maximum 7.5 CGPA for some companies. A 6-pointer may end up with a better job than a 9-pointer because of skills. The placement scenario is good.

KIIT is better among the three for placements because it has an E-cell or Entrepreneurship Cell which is not present in the other two colleges. Over there, an internship camp is organized in which the students can get an internship in their field of interest, in different companies.

SRM- In SRM, there is a system of mass recruitment and most students get placed. Mass recruitment companies recruit students in large numbers with an average package of around INR 4.5 LPA. If you study hard, practice coding, are strong in aptitude, database, etc., you can get a package of INR 5-6LPA.

UPES-  CSE branch, the placement percentage is around 90%.  However, the number of companies that visit UPES is limited. IBM is a big company and offers the maximum placements. Amazon, Wipro, Dell, Flipkart, and others also visit the campus for placements.

Thus, because of its Entrepreneurship Cell and Internship camp, I would suggest that KIIT has the best placements out of the three. However, placements at SRM and UPES are also quite good and the placement figures for all three are at par.

Which one should I prefer, AIIMS Mangalagiri or Gandhi/Osmania Medical College?

Muskan Shafi Posted On : April 6th, 2024

Gandhi Medical College and Osmania Medical Colleges are both funded by the state government. The facilities and resources might be limited. Whereas, AIIMS Mangalgiri is recognized as an “Institution of National Importance” and is funded by the Government of India.

AIIMS Mangalagiri has well-experienced faculty who are highly qualified and recognized in their respective fields. JIPMER handles the faculty requirement at AIIMS Mangagalgiri. Although the institution has a temporary campus at Government Siddhartha Medical College, Vijayawada. Now, the campus has shifted to the newly constructed campus. The intake at AIIMS Mangalgiri is 125 seats annually for MBBS. Students willing to seek admission at AIIMS Mangalagiri must secure the required cutoff marks in their respective entrance exams. Despite the admission at AIIMS Mangalagiri being highly competitive, the institute offers admission to PG courses twice a year. As a result, students wanting to pursue higher studies such as MD/MS or DM / M.Ch can apply twice a year through INI CET i.e., INI CET January Session or INI CET July Session. 

The fees at AIIMS Mangalgiri are comparatively less than any other medical institute. In regards to academics. Students joining AIIMS Mangalagiri are offered with excellent medical curriculum as per AIIMS standards. The institute also offers various facilities such as a Guest House, Indoor & Outdoor Sports Facilities, Community Halls, Gym, Dining Area, Hostels, Library, Laboratories and VIP Lounges. 

Although the AIIMS Mangalagiri campus was recently constructed, students are not deprived of any resources and facilities. Overall, the choice of medical education is dependent on individual preferences. However, AIIMS Mangalagiri is one of the premier institutes and will not disappoint the expectations of the students.

NS
Navneet Singh Posted On : July 3rd, 2023
Studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

BITS Pilani can easily be compared to many NITs and there are several reasons why I will recommend you to choose BITS Pilani over NITs. 

  • The no attendance-policy makes you live your college life as per your will. 
  • The crowd at BITS is excellent because of the no-reservation policy.
  • A large number of clubs and departments help you pursue your passion and interest.
  • BITS Pilani coding culture can be compared to most NITs.
  • The mess is student-driven so you can input your demands easily.
  • The professors are highly qualified with an excellent knack for teaching. The Institute does not promote rote learning in any way.
  • Another great feature of BITS Pilani is the practice school wherein you will be working as an intern in big companies. 
  • BITS Pilani’s superior infrastructure is also what makes it better than NITs. 
  • The top-notch educated combined with the exposure offered results in better placements than most NITs

However, the answer is not for top NITs. Top NITs like Tricy will any day stand better than BITS.

Which one is better out of these: NIT Silchar, NIT Patna or IIIT Jabalpur?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : August 31st, 2023

According to me, IIIT Jabalpur is way ahead of the other two colleges. It is followed by NIT Patna. Here are some advantages of IIIT Jabalpur-

  • Infrastructure- The campus is spread across 300 acres and has a well-furnished library. 
  • Placements - The placements are good and improving with each year. Here is the year-wise highest salary trend for the college-
IIIT Jabalpur

The placements for Mechanical, CSE and ECE are quite impressive. Other students opt for CAT/GMAT/higher studies abroad. The college is just 4 km away from the Jabalpur airport which facilitates more companies to visit the campus for placements. Because of good connectivity to major metropolitan cities of India, the placements are expected to increase exponentially in the coming years.

  • Hostels and Campus Life- As a fresher, you’ll be allotted a three-seater hostel room. From the second year onwards, you’ll get a separate room. Each hostel has two messes and a canteen, the mess food is good. The hostel canteens are open till 2 (at night).

Campus life is great. You can play Volleyball, Cricket, and Football with your friends till late evening. The college fests- Gusto and Abhikalpan are much awaited.

  • Sports, Clubs and Gym- The college offers good sports facilities. There are football, cricket, basketball, volleyball, badminton & tennis grounds. Hostels have TT tables. Various clubs like dance club, drama club, etc. are also present. There is a gym facility on campus, provided free of cost to the students.
  • Faculty - The faculty is excellent. It includes IIT alumni and former students of prestigious US universities. You’ll get to learn from the best. 
  • Other - The CSE department has good placements and curriculum. The college has collaborations with 6 Japanese Companies and 6 Japanese institutions. 

Therefore, out of NIT Silchar, NIT Patna and IIIT Jabalpur, I would suggest you go for the third one.

Should I prefer IIIT Guwahati and IIIT Bhubaneswar above MIT, Manipal for the ECE branch?

NS
Nimrit Sharma Posted On : March 22nd, 2023
Bachelors of Technology in Computer Science, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Guwahati (IIITG) (Graduated 2022)

If you are looking for an ECE branch, you may want to consider IIIT Guwahati over IIIT Bhubaneswar and MIT Manipal. IIIT Guwahati is an Institute of National Importance and is centrally funded, while IIIT Bhubaneswar is a state-funded institute and MIT Manipal is a private institute.

IIIT Guwahati has been making significant improvements in terms of infrastructure and placements every year. In contrast, IIIT Bhubaneswar seems to have reached a saturation point with no significant increase in placement or campus facilities.

Moreover, the faculty at IIIT Guwahati encourages research at the undergraduate level. Many seniors have already started researching on AI, ML, cybersecurity, and communication as early as the 3rd semester. This could be an excellent opportunity for students who are interested in research.

Additionally, all the laboratories at IIIT Guwahati are open to access for students who wish to work on personal projects, subject to administration permission, which is easy to obtain. This could be helpful for students who want to gain practical experience beyond the coursework.

In conclusion, if you are interested in pursuing ECE, IIIT Guwahati could be an excellent choice due to its status as an Institute of National Importance, centrally funded status, improving infrastructure and placement record, faculty support for research at the undergraduate level, and open laboratory access.
