Which NIT is better for civil engineering, NIT Surathkal or NIT Warangal?

RS
Raghuveer Singh Posted On : March 20th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Warangal

One of my friends pursued BTech Civil Engineering from NIT Warangal. NITW was reported to be one of the best for Civil Engineering among all the NITs and IITs in India by most of the students. Thus it can be said that Civil engineering at NIT Warangal is better than NIT Surathkal.

Here are some of the observations about NIT Warangal that you should know. 

  • The professors and lecturers who completed their Masters and PhDs from some of the best colleges are at the retiring age now.
  • If you are really interested in the Civil branch and want a college with a brand value then NIT Warangal is a perfect choice. As for academics, for engineering degrees college will have very little contribution and you have to work on your own. This is true for almost every engineering college.
  • If you are only concerned about the brand value and not the course, then any NIT would do a good option. for them. 
  • If you have no such interest in the Civil branch then it will be better to look for other branches. 

If you want to opt for Civil engineering then you should go for NIT Warangal as this is one of the best colleges for Civil.

Is the M.Sc (Economics) + B.E. (Hons.) dual-degree from BITS Goa a better option than CSE from NIT Surathkal?

SG
Shubham Ghose Posted On : May 24th, 2021
M.Sc Economics, NIT Surathkal (2019)

I have a friend who completed a dual degree in Economics from BITS Goa and he vouches for the course. Economics in BITS Goa is actually a brilliant department. Also, if you wish to do an MBA in the future an economics degree can prove to be very useful. Apart from this the Economics department also has some brilliant professors and they offer some very good electives like Security Analysis and Portfolio Management and Financial Management.

Now, here are a few cons regarding both colleges.

BITS Goa:

  • Coursework is not easy and the grading is quite harsh. BITS has absolutely NO reservation. Everyone gets in through merit. NITK on the other hand has a 50% reservation. Therefore, competition is quite fierce in BITS.
  • If you screw up your 1st year and you may end up with a branch you don’t like.
  • Although you get 2 degrees in 5 years, you have to work extra hard. 
  • The fee is quite high. BITS are not funded and student fees are their only source of income, unlike the NITs which are heavily funded and can afford to charge nominal fees.

NIT Surathkal:

  • Peer quality is much lower than BITS. 50% of the students get in through reservation.
  • While applying abroad for graduate school, BITS definitely has an edge over NIT, and no matter what people say universities abroad don't differentiate among different campuses of BITS.
  • The flexibility offered in the BITS curriculum is far higher than whatever is there in the NIT curriculum.

It often is the case that students of 12th standard are clueless about their field of interest after finishing their studies. Being in a dual program, you get an extra year to decide on your field(subject) of interest

SK
Shruti Karmakar Posted On : July 17th, 2021
Studied at NIT Surathkal (2019)

You should not be expecting placements for an M.Tech from NIT Surathkal. The scenario is quite different for the CS/IT background students.

  • Talking about the mechanical department, it is great.
  • The professors are very well-read and good at their job.
  • You will have opportunities to go for research.
  • You can use the NITian tag to find an internship but you need to put in your own efforts.
  • If you do well at the internship, you will have a chance of getting a pre-placement offer.
Categories M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering at NIT Surathkal
Course Fee 1.29 lakhs
Course Duration 2 years
Highest CTC 14-15 LPA
Average CTC 7 LPA

The placement is really good in NIT Surathkal. Many top companies participate in the placement program. These companies include Microsoft, Google, Tech Mahindra, IBM, TCS, Capgemini, Accenture, Wipro, Mindtree, Infosys, etc.

Which is the best option: CSE at IIIT Delhi, dual (economics) at BITS Goa/Hyderabad, or information technology at NIT Suratkal?

YS
Yukti Sharma Posted On : August 23rd, 2021
Studied at BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus

The answer to this question depends on how you can cope with zealous competition after joining college. If you are confident that you can join the brawl and top in your first year, I would highly recommend taking MSc in Economics at BITS Goa Pilani. 

Pros
  • BITS Pilani has been ranked among top 30 institutes in NIRF Ranking 2020. 
  • In your 2nd year, you can choose a B.E. course according to your first year CGPA, including the highly coveted CSE program.
Cons
  • You'll have to spend one more year as compared to your B.E. colleagues.
  • Getting your desired course can be a real disadvantage, seeing that there is no dearth of distractions on campus.

If you do not want to take a risk, choosing IT at NIT Surathkal is the best option for you. Since the syllabus almost corresponds to that of CSE and the infrastructure is mind-blowing at the campus.

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.
