What is the best option for my 17,115 JEE Mains rank, IIIT Lucknow CS/IT or ECE NIT Kurukshetra (Haryana is my home estate)?

While discussing NIT Kurukshetra and IIIT Lucknow I would suggest you go for NIT Kurukshetra. IIIT Lucknow is newly established and requires more experience.

With a rank of 17115 in JEE Main, I would like to suggest you go for NIT Kurukshetra. It has a better NIRF ranking than that of IIIT Lucknow.

As your interest leans towards CSE/IT, you can easily explore your coding knowledge or software skills beyond your opted branch. There is a good coding culture in NITs, you can learn coding from any branch depending on your interest and dedication.

You can approach any software company without any restriction of the branch at the time of placements. Moreover, NITs assist you with a remission policy which you won’t get in IIITs based on your family income.

B.Tech IT, IIIT Lucknow (2019)

I have got a few of my close friends studying in these institutes, here are some points according to their experience.

  • Campus & Facilities- IIIT Lucknow being a new campus needs time to fully function and for good sports facilities. IIT Guwahati has a permanent campus and welly developed sports facilities.
  • Infrastructure- Labs of IIIT Guwahati are well established and all the types of equipment you need for practicals and research are there.
  • Location- The IIIT Lucknow area is being developed so you will only find rubble there while near the IIITG construction of IT Park will boost the internships and placements of IIITG.
  • At IIIT Guwahati you will gain good industrial knowledge other than the academic part.
  • Placements- CSE at IIIT Guwahati has good placements than IIIT Lucknow.

B.E. in Computer Engineer from Lalbhai Dalpatbhai College of Engineering (2019)

My sister did her B.Tech from NIT Kurukshetra as it is one of the top-rated NIT and she had a wonderful time there.

So, I would suggest you to go for Electrical Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra. However to help you make a better decision here’s a comparison between the three colleges:

Particulars

NIT Kurukshetra (EE)

IIIT Lucknow (CSE)

IIIT Guwahati (CSE)

Fees (total)

2.36 lacs

9.72 lacs

9 lacs

Highest Package offered

17 LPA

If you choose a better college over a branch then you will have an advantage during placements as companies would be aching to visit for hiring new students. You can have a better branch but it won’t matter as you wouldn’t get enough placement opportunities. Students from NIT are placed in some of the top multinational companies.

Among IIIT Pune-CS, IIITDM mechanical, and IIIT Lucknow-IT, which is the best option to choose?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : April 11th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

If you are trying to decide between IIIT Pune-CS, IIITDM Mechanical, and IIIT Lucknow-IT, it's important to consider the strengths and weaknesses of each institute before making a decision. Based on your preferences, IIIT Lucknow-IT is likely the best choice for you. Here's why:

  • IIIT Pune-CS: While IIIT Pune has a good reputation overall, its computer science program is relatively new and still in the process of establishing itself. If you're specifically interested in computer science, you might be better off looking at other options.
  • IIITDM Mechanical: IIITDM Jabalpur is one of the older IIITs in India and has a strong reputation for its engineering programs. However, it's important to keep in mind that the mechanical engineering program may not be the best fit for everyone. If you're not specifically interested in mechanical engineering, it might not be the best choice for you.
  • IIIT Lucknow-IT: IIIT Lucknow has a well-established IT program with a strong track record of producing successful graduates. If you're interested in pursuing a career in IT, this institute could be an excellent choice for you.

Here are a few other factors to consider when making your decision:

  • Location: All three of these institutes are located in different parts of India, so you'll want to think about which location makes the most sense for you in terms of cost of living, proximity to family and friends, etc.
  • Course offerings: While all three of these institutes have strong reputations, they may have different strengths and weaknesses when it comes to specific courses or areas of study. Take a look at the course offerings for each institute to see which one aligns most closely with your interests and goals.
  • Faculty and resources: Another important factor to consider is the quality of the faculty and resources available at each institute. Look into the faculty members at each institute and their research interests to get a sense of whether they align with your own interests. You may also want to consider factors like library resources, labs, and other facilities that can impact your education.

Ultimately, the best choice for you will depend on a variety of factors, including your academic interests, career goals, and personal preferences. However, if you're specifically interested in IT and looking for a well-established program with a strong track record of success, IIIT Lucknow-IT is definitely worth considering.

Which is better, IIIT Lucknow for CSE or NIT Patna for ECE?

AS
Anuj Singh Posted On : June 10th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, National Institutes of Technology (2020)

I have friends studying at both IIIT Lucknow and NIT Patna, and according to their first-hand experience, IIIT Lucknow is the better choice here. Here’s what you need to know.

  • Curriculum: IIIT Lucknow has a great curriculumin terms of syllabus, classes, and coding culture. The competitive environment drives you to excel in every field.
  • Facilities: You will get high-tech facilities in IIIT Lucknow designed for engineering and coding. Events like Hackathons and other tech fests are equivalent to IIIT Allahabad.
  • Placements: My friend who completed his B.Tech from IIIT Lucknow experienced that your placement highly depends on how much you use online videos, courses to excel in your respective branch. Overall you need to be active and focus on improving your skills which might help you grab decent job packages. Moreover, the highest CTC recorded to 43 LPA while the average CTC is 18.4 LPA.

Check out some of the reasons why you shouldn’t choose NIT Patna.

  • Poor infrastructure: Unfortunately, the institute is not making much effort to improve facilities, organizing tech events. This is because they are currently focusing on the construction of the new campus of NIT Patna at Bihta near IIT Patna which is bound to be completed by 2024.
  • Poor accommodation: You will have to adjust to double or triple seater rooms because you won’t get a single-seater room in all of your 4 years. Also, the PG options are not good in the surrounding area.
  • Poor mess food: Just like the infrastructure, the Hostel Mess Committee is too reluctant to improve food quality in spite of knowing everything. Also, you won’t get any good quality restaurants nearby or any online food ordered after 10 pm.
  • Outdated curriculum: Institute is still following the old curriculum and has outdated labs. Even the Classrooms are too outdated with broken benches and no Projectors are used to teach.
  • Lack of extracurricular: There is a lack of proper clubs, sports facilities, tech-fests, and coding culture.

Overall, ECE at NIT Patna is not a good option. Go for CSE IIIT Lucknow any day for a great curriculum, great facilities, great location, and great placements. Also, the CSE branch gets you more chances of better placements in most colleges in India.

What will be better, mechanical in MNIT Jaipur or IT at IIIT Lucknow with a 11803 rank in the JEE Main?

RB
Rohan Bose Posted On : June 25th, 2021
Studied at IIIT Allahabad (2019)

Having friends in both the colleges, I can say that MNIT Jaipur and IIIT Lucknow are equally good in their own ways. If you get a chance in any of these colleges, go for it.

Apart from getting admission in any one of either the only thing which would give you trouble is which field to choose? But, I would like to say that whatever field you choose, if you work hard and be honest with your studies you will land in a better place.

  • But answering your question with rank 11803 in the JEE Main; I would like to say that MNIT Jaipur is a much better college than IIIT Lucknow.
  • If you ask me, nowadays the trend and placement of MNIT Jaipur are on par. But, if you are really interested in CSE then definitely look for CSE or IT in well-established IIITs.
  • And with the rank of 11803, you might have a chance to get into old IIITs or TIER 2 NITs.

And talking about IIIT Lucknow, Their campus just started functioning in 2020. Earlier IIIT Lucknow runs from IIIT Allahabad campus.

Further, getting a job in core trade is very difficult to go to IIIT Lucknow but do check the infrastructure and previous year placement record of IIIT otherwise join MNIT Jaipur in mechanical without any second thought.

Which college is better between IIIT Bhubneshwar, IIIT Delhi, IIIT Kota, IIIT Vadodara, IIIT Lucknow, IIIT NR, IIIT Trichy, IIIT Sri City, IIIT Guwahati, and IIIT Kalyani for CSE/IT, in terms of fee s

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : October 5th, 2023

Here is the best preference order you can refer to while choosing one IIIT from the long list you mentioned. I have considered all parameters including placements, coding culture, research, infrastructure, alumni, etc 

  • IIIT Hyderabad
  • IIIT Allahabad = IIIT Delhi
  • IIIT Bangalore
  • IIIT Lucknow 
  • IIIT Sri City = IIIT Gwalior = IIIT Chennai = IIIT Jabalpur
  • IIIT Bhubneshwar = IIIT Guwahati = IIIT Kota
  • IIIT Trichy = IIIT Vadodra = IIIT Kalyani = IIIT NR

If you are genuinely interested in coding or CSE, the best options for you would be IIIT Hyderabad, Allahabad, Bangalore, and Delhi. You can consider the top NITs as excellent options too. These 4 IIITs are the only IIITs that are better than NITs in terms of research, curriculum, and holistic development.

IIIT Lucknow, although a new IIIT, has established its name among the top IIITs. Its high ranking is because of its excellent coding culture and thus many product companies visit it. These 4 IIITs have their own campus too and charge high fees because of the top-notch faculty and research resources they offer.

All the remaining IIITs are in the development stage and should not be given consideration. It’s better to choose the top 7 or 8 NITs than these developing IIITs.
