Which is better for CS, IIIT Allahabad vs NIT Trichy?

Namrata Das Posted On : July 20th, 2023

Both IIIT Allahabad and NIT Trichy are excellent institutes imparting engineering education. Choosing the better between the two will require comparison based on some common aspects

  • Campus life: IIIT Allahabad has a very rigid and restricting campus life as you will be surrounded by nerds. The academics are very tough and most of the time will be spent in completing assignments. NIT Trichy has a bit of flexible and lively campus life.
  • Clubs: IIIT Allahabad does not look beyond academics and the extracurricular culture here is very lacking. The clubs here are very few in number in comparison to NIT Trichy which has more than 50 clubs.
  • Coding culture: IIIT Allahabad being the academic m-oriented institute obviously has better coding culture than NIT Trichy which focuses on the overall development of its students. NIT Trichy has more students in core branches than CS. 
  • Higher studies: If you are planning to go for higher studies such as an MS from a top foreign university, then IIIT Allahabad will be a better choice for you.

Considering the fact that the placement scenario of both the institutes is at par with each other, choosing one over the other depends on the kind of college life you prefer. If your goal is to just study and get placed in a top tech company, then IIIT Allahabad is a great choice for you but if you want to experience a good campus life and enjoy your engineering years, then NIT Trichy is better.

BSc from IIT Kharagpur

My brother is studying IT at IIIT Allahabad. So, I know about the placement at the institute. 

Over the year the average CTC offered at the institute is INR 12 -14 LPA. However, this way of measurement is not an indicator of the quality of placements available on campus. The median salary is a better marker of the type of packages received by students. At IIIT A the median salary has been around INR 10-12 LPA.

Is ECE good at IIIT Allahabad?

SS
Shikha Shukla Posted On : July 5th, 2021
Studied Computer Science at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2019)

There are a lot of things that come into consideration while choosing a course. One of my friends opted for ECE at IIIT Allahabad, let me share his experience, with which you might get a proper understanding.

  • If your AIR is around 7k-10k then, it is really good. Because at this rank you don’t consider yourself for branches like CS/ECE/IT in top NIT’s.
  • When you look at the insights of IIIT-A, you find it is underrated.
  • Although the college is younger than most of the top NIT’s, some professors are really outstanding.
  • The labs here are better as compared to the NITs.
  • Projects are assigned to students which carry the weightage of 5 credits. The projects start right from the fifth semester.
  • The VLSI lab has various machines and instruments which help students to work on VLSI projects.

Choosing the best college for you depends on the various parameters like your interest, location, professors, infrastructure, laboratories, culture, academic records, alumni network, and placement. Thus, choose wisely.

IIIT Allahabad's IT is one of the best in this league. This branch is at par with CS.

The coding culture is exceptional at IIIT Allahabad. Most of the top-ranked students in competitive programming at present are from IIIT while the number of students from MNIT is few.

The placement opportunities at IIIT Allahabad IT are tremendous and better than MNIT CS. Students at IIIT Allahabad land high package offers.

According to the recent placement statistics the highest and average CTC offered to IIIT A is 43 LPA and 20 LPA. Whereas the highest and average for MNIT is 38 LPA and 8 LPA.

In terms of rate of growth in next 4 years which would be better option: CSE, NIT Trichy or IT, IIIT-Allahabad?

AS
Arnav Singh Posted On : March 16th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

IIIT Allahabad has an awesome coding culture. You can note the difference when you interact with a lot of engineers from other colleges. In old engineering colleges for the first year, you would be doing foundry and welding. You might also end up learning English etc. but actual coding starts after 1st semester or in the second year. While at IIIT Allahabad coding starts from the very beginning of the course. 

Highlights:

  • IIIT Allahabad has an awesome course structure and meets the demand of current times. 
  • In IIIT Allahabad they teach C or C++ in 1st year and Java in 2nd year.
  • IIIT Allahabad lacked in Professors but then this was made up by the awesome students and seniors. 
  • The most important thing in IIIT Allahabad was how to learn. This has helped many students throughout their careers. 
  • Students in IIIT Allahabad start coding through a completely different language in just a day and it has never felt that it is a big deal because this is what was expected from IIIT Allahabad. 
  • This is because the student is expected to complete one project each semester and they will get no help from your professors.

The table shows a brief overview of the institutions.

Particulars

Median Salary

Rs. 6.5 lakhs

Rs. 20 lakhs

Also, there is a great culture of competitive programming in the institute. There are students in other premium engineering colleges who wouldn't have coded completely their engineering. This is unheard of in IIIT Allahabad.
