Yes, both the colleges are different and provide different courses. Also the curriculum and facilities are different as one is a Government college and the other Private.

Which is better, CSE in MAIT or IT in USICT?

DB
Devansh Bhatia Posted On : April 23rd, 2021
B.Tech from USCIT, graduated in 2019

Both USICT and MAIT have an attractive campus. They also provide special USS benefits to the students. 

One of my relatives used to be a student of USICT. In spite of being a student of that institute, he holds both institutes in high regard. A lot of students come from distant places and traveling gets time-consuming.

Before you choose your institute, make sure you keep the distance factor in mind because you might very well be spending several hours. This can be detrimental to you and other students who will take pains to reach the institute. Four years is not a short time, after all.

As for placements, you will be allowed to sit in for companies at IP University’s main entrance if you meet the requirements of eligibility and if your aggregate cut-off meets the requirements.

CSE in MAIT will give you a lot of opportunities to learn and grow. The department is also very supportive. The package you will get would be pretty decent if you are not really on the core technical side. Your expertise will determine the package you will be offered. The seniors and faculty will guide you in that regard.

What should I go for, MAIT, BVP, or AIT CSE?

SB
Sanjukta Bose Posted On : July 2nd, 2021
Studied at Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology

Before choosing a college, you should consider things like - Infrastructure, fee structure, faculty profile, placements, coding culture, the branch of interest, extracurricular activities, distance from home, etc.

All these colleges are affiliated with Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, Delhi. AIT, now known as AIACTR, is a government college while MAIT and BVP are private colleges.

If we compare only private colleges, then the preference order will be as the following.

  • BVCOE can be ranked higher in terms of academics.
  • In terms of placements and co-curricular activities, MAIT deserves a higher position.
  • If we consider the coding culture, MSIT can be ranked higher.

Here is a comparison between government colleges and private colleges:

  • In government colleges, the fee is almost half that of private colleges. Hence, it provides relief to people having financial problems.
  • The facilities at government colleges are not at par with private colleges. The facilities are usually of poor quality. In private colleges, even if the college lacks certain facilities, the reforms are quick whereas in government colleges, it takes a lot of time and you might spend half of your college life without availing of such facilities.
  • The quality of teaching is very important to note here. In government colleges, most of the teachers do not teach at par the required quality.

Based on what I heard from my friend I will say the preference order should be - MAIT>BVP>AIT.

Which is better, CSE at BPIT or ECE at MAIT, MSIT, or BVP?

AK
Anuj Khanna Posted On : June 28th, 2021
Studied at Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology

The point of concern here is your branch preference.

  • For CSE it completely depends on your skill. If you are skilled enough, you are good to go off-campus. There are a lot of opportunities. You do not have to bother about on-campus placements.
  • For ECE campus matters. There are a few core companies in ECE and they visit IITs only. Chances are low getting in core with off-campus too. So, ECE students either do coding or go for M-Tech or join small core companies offering low packages. Once you are good with Softwares/ Basics you are as good as a CSE graduate.

However, MAIT is more reputed than the remaining colleges. Here is a brief highlight of the recent placement statistics for MAIT.

Average CTC

3.50 LPA

Highest CTC

28 LPA

Major recruiters

TCS, Amazon, ZS Associates, Deloitte, etc.

Hope this helps.

I am getting EEE in MAIT on merit but in 2nd shift and BVCOE in 1st shift. What should I take?

MT
Malini Thakur Posted On : June 30th, 2021
Completed EEE from MAIT in 2020

My friend from school used to be a student of MAIT and he is of the opinion that the campus and the life it promises are much better than those of BVCOE.

The faculty of MAIT is lenient and the students get ample freedom. However, the same cannot be said for BVCOE. The latter institute also falls short when it comes to the crowd in both institutes.

Speaking of academics, both MAIT and BVCOE are more or less on an equal footing.

Coming to the second shift, now, as far it is concerned, it is suggested to take the timings and the distance between your home and the college into consideration.

My friend chose the first shift because you will be able to get off earlier.
