Should a student opt for electrical at old IITs or CSE at a new IIT (Indore)?

TA

Founder, NextBigWhat

An engineering aspirant has very limited knowledge of the branches because he/she is just a 12th pass out. So the best way is to 

  • Analyze your interests
  • Go through the courses covered in both the branches
  • Determine the scope of your career for both the streams

After this, you will not be certain but will have a vague idea of your inclination.

As far as Electrical at new IITs is concerned, you will never be disappointed as you will be getting it all at once, a good core branch, great exposure, top-notch infrastructure and facilities, and excellent opportunities. But if you are certain of your interest in programming, new IITs like IIT Hyderabad and IIT Indore are decent choices. 

IIT Indore CSE seems a promising option for you especially because of its rapid growth in coding culture over the past few years. The institute has made its name on the global map and has given birth to many successful coders. The seniors here assist you with programming. The overall IIT Indore ambiance is conducive to a good programming experience and will help you develop skills faster. 

Ultimately it’s best to consult your teachers and students who have completed the program recently and then make the final decision.

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : June 20th, 2023

IIT Indore has introduced the flat system wherein, 5 students are allotted a 5 BHK flat and thus single occupancy rooms. Changes are being made to shift students to studio apartments in the future. 

A room in the hostel of IIT Indore has its own balcony, kitchen, 2 sets of bathrooms, and a hall. The basic amenities you will find inside a room are a bed, an almirah, a study table, a chair, a LAN port, etc. Additionally, there are sofa sets, a small refrigerator in the kitchen, and a discussion table in the hall.

Trust me you will love the accommodation facilities here.

My JEE Advanced rank is 1402. What is better: IIT KGP MNC (MSc), IIT Indore, CSE or Guwahati MNC?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : June 20th, 2023

I feel the best option for you is IIT Indore CSE. The curriculum of MnC is pretty rigorous and rigid whereas in CS you have a plethora of domains to pursue your career in. Moreover, there isn’t any difference in the number and quality of companies visiting IIT KGP and IIT Indore now. New IITs like IIT Hyderabad and IIT Indore are doing better than some old IITs so you won’t regret choosing them over older ones. 

IIT Indore functions from its permanent campus so you won’t be sacrificing the quality of campus life even. 

Don’t choose IIT KGP or IIT Guwahati just because they have higher cutoffs. Rather prioritize the branches. That being said, CSE is the most demanded branch while MnC is math-intensive with less focus on the programming part and more focus on theoretical mathematics. 

Ultimately let your interests make the decision and not the brand name. As far as brand name is concerned IIT KGP might be slightly better only because of its alumni network. Again, your branch preference matters more.

The CSE branch is one of the most coveted branches today and every institute offers a good CS program with the best job prospects. What matters is the coding culture, opportunities, and placement opportunities of the institute.

The CS departments of IIT Indore, NIT Trichy, and Surathkal have 100% placement. The students can easily expect a package of around INR 25-30 LPA.

Is IIT Indore overhyped?

y
yaseen Posted On : June 17th, 2023

I don’t think any new IIT is overhyped and all the fame they have is well-deserved. Every IITian is able to make it into one of the most esteemed engineering colleges in India, the IITs only after a careful and thorough screening process designed by some of the best academicians. Yes, the infrastructure may not be of the same level as old IITs but this does not mean in any way that their credibility and prestige are any less. The uniqueness of IITs lies in the

  • Versatility of the peer groups and the geniuses you get to associate yourself with that leave no stone unturned.
  • The intense competitions that challenge your limits and coding skills.
  • The out-of-the-box ideas that take birth inside small minds and become big projects. 

These unique experiences at any IIT can never make it overhyped as each IIT deserves the recognition it gets.
