Which is better, NIT Trichy CSE or NITK Suratkal CSE, considering academics, campus and college life?

AB

Lives in Bangalore

Although both NIT Trichy and NIT Surathkal give constant edge to each other it’s NIT Trichy that has a slight advantage over the latter. However, the difference in the institutes is based on certain parameters.

Academics-wise, NIT Trichy is better as it attracts a better crowd of both students as well as recruiters. 

But when it comes to campus life, NIT Surathkal overtakes NIT Trichy easily. NIT Trichy faces a disadvantage due to its location and extremely hot climate while NIT Surathkal has a pleasant climate and a more relaxing campus life. They also have a private beach and the institute is in close proximity to Manipal and Mangalore. Although college life varies from person to person, the fact that you will be enjoying your life better at NIT Surathkal cannot be overlooked. NIT Trichy has a huge campus but the hot climate makes things worse here. 

In all, if you give more preference to academics choose NIT Trichy but if you value a good campus life equally then NIT Surathkal seems to be better for you.

Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

If you are considering higher education, it is important to choose an institution that is best suited to your needs and goals. Among the top choices are the National Institutes of Technology (NITs) and private institutions like BITS Pilani. While BITS Pilani is a great private institution, it is important to consider the factors that set NITs apart.

Here are some reasons why you should consider NITs as your first preference:

  • Lower fees: NITs are run by the Government of India, and as a result, their fees are lower compared to private institutions like BITS Pilani. This makes NITs a more affordable option for students who want quality education without incurring a large debt burden.
  • Edge over jobs: If you graduate from a government institution like NIT, you can get a good edge over jobs. NITs are well-respected and have a strong reputation in the industry, which can help you secure a good job after graduation.
  • Clubs and Activities: NITs have various clubs and societies that cater to students' interests and skills. These clubs provide a platform for students to explore their interests and enhance their skills, making them more well-rounded individuals.
  • Innovation: NITs are known for their focus on innovation and research. They provide students with ample opportunities to apply their knowledge and innovative ideas through various projects, internships, and research programs.
  • Institution of National Importance: NITs are institutions of national importance and are recognized as such by the government. This means that they receive significant funding and support, which translates into better infrastructure, facilities, and faculty.

In conclusion, while BITS Pilani is a good private institution, it is important to consider the advantages that NITs offer. With lower fees, a strong reputation, ample opportunities for innovation and research, and a range of clubs and activities, NITs are an excellent choice for students who want to pursue higher education in India.

How is New Horizon College of Engineering in CSE placements?

RP
Rashi Pratap Posted On : June 1st, 2021
B.Tech Information Technology, Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (2020),

One of my friends suggested that CSE placements in this college are much better than other branches. Other branches like ECE and EEE struggle a lot to get good companies which CSE students get at one go. 

The campus drive is conducted one year after passing out from the college. Many cores, noncore and BPO companies come here for placements. Good packages are offered to the students. Some of the companies also have a bond of 2 to 3 years.

The placement report of the batch of 2020 is as follows:

Students registered for placements

852

Highest CTC offered

INR 20.14 LPA.

Lowest CTC offered

INR 3.5 LPA.

Median CTC offered

INR 6 LPA

PPO offered

767

Highest stipend offered

INR 70,000 per month.

It is suggested that you should work more on your coding skills and other technical skills to get good placements.

AJ
Adinath Jain Posted On : July 28th, 2023
Studied at IIIT Hyderabad

My sister gave IIIT Hyderabad PGEE Exam in 208 and claims it to be easier than GATE. The number of questions varies every year but the pattern somewhat remains similar. The exam had two papers.

Paper 1 - Aptitude (Time: 90 minutes)

  • This one comprised 40 questions out of which 20-25 were quantitative questions, 5-10 questions were based on programming and mathematics, and 10 questions were based on comprehension
  • Some of the most common topics covered were Calendar, Clocks, Directions, Blood Relation, Time and Distance, Probability Syllogism, Number and Series, Data sufficiency, and Propositional logic.
  • As a whole the level of difficulty was easy to medium. 

Paper 2 - Technical (Time: 90 minutes)

  • This paper comprised 60 questions out of which 20-25 questions were from previous years Gate/Isro paper. The remaining questions were related to simple subject knowledge. 
  • The level of programming questions and data structure questions was higher than in the Gate exam.
  • Each question had more than one answer and not ticking all the right ones would lose you marks. 
  • Again, the level of difficulty was easy and anyone who had cleared GATE could clear this too. 

It's best to adopt the same strategy you used for GATE preparation and you will surely get good results.

Why do so many people take Computer Science from IIT Bombay?

AB
Advaith Bhaskar Posted On : March 18th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India (2000–present)

If I have to be honest, I think pursuing Computer Science at IIT Bombay is just a sheep mentality-driven dream pursued by a majority of Indians. Not many who take CS are genuinely interested and passionate about it, rather they opt for it because most genius minds consider it the best option.

The media comes to play as it advertises the highly inflated packages offered to CS students at IIT Bombay. The aspirant gets attracted to such glittering figures and flocks to IIT Bombay in the pretext to land similar packages. The media and society mold aspirants to believe that money is everything in one’s career and should always be the priority. As a result, students tend to opt for CS and don’t even consider other Engineering branches for fear of getting packages lower than those offered to CS students.

One can easily conclude that most engineering aspirants are unaware of their inclinations and thus become victims of sheep mentality. I have seen many students who join Computer Science and later realize that it’s not their forte.
