Is there any Difference in faculty, placements, Facilities between CGC Landran & CGC Jhanjeri? If Yes, then which is Better for btech in CSE ?

CS
Chatur Srivastav Posted On : July 16th, 2021
Studied at Chandigarh Engineering College

CGC Landran and CGC Jhanjeri are the same and run by the same management. The faculties of the college are also the same. The placements for both campuses take place at the same time. The students sit together for their placements.

I have a few friends at both institutes and most of them recommend Chandigarh Engineering college Landran campus over Jhanjeri campus because this campus is the oldest, the environment is good, and it is located near to Mohali.

CGC Landran is better in terms of infrastructure and faculty members as well. The CSC department of this college is good. According to the recent placement highlights the average and highest CTC offered at the institutes is 7 LPA and 35 LPA.

Which should I choose between Jadavpur Univerity and IIEST Shibpur?

AR
Arnav Roy Posted On : October 17th, 2023

Here is some information on both these colleges. At the end, the choice is yours to make-

  • Academics- The curriculum, faculty and labs for EE are good at both the colleges. But for CSE and ECE, JU is a far better choice. 
  • Teaching Quality- Even if some faculty members aren't up to the INI standards, they can’t be replaced as IIEST is a government college. Because of this, JU has a far better quality of teaching. 
  • Library- The reading room at IIEST is far better. It is huge with lots of databases and ample reading space. But JU has a far better digital library system.
  • Infrastructure- The infrastructure at IIEST Shibpur is being developed at a good rate. Its hostels desperately need improvement and expansion.
  • Placements- JU consistently outperforms IIEST in placements.
  • Campus Life- IIEST Shibpur does not have a campus life, and senior-junior interaction is negligible. The campus is lifeless in this sense. JU has a vibrant campus life, but with so much happening on campus, you’ll need to draw your limits and not get diverted.

Both the colleges are good, but JU is the better choice.

Has my daughter made the right decision by taking a CSE at IIIT Hyderabad instead of electrical at IIT Roorkee?

JP
Jiten Pradhan Posted On : August 3rd, 2023
Studied at Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Hyderabad (2020)

Although it actually depends on your daughter's interests and career goals, I would say choosing CSE at IIIT Hyderabad was a smart decision indeed unless she has a specific inclination toward Electrical Engineering.

IIIT Hyderabad CSE can be highly compared to the CSE programs of the top 6 IITs. It has a highly updated and relevant curriculum that is CS tailored to suit the needs of future coders. Moreover, the institute focuses a lot on practical learning which prepares them for the future. IIITs are undergoing fast-paced development and might take over the IT world very soon. 

Another aspect that makes IIIT Hyderabad a better choice than IIT Roorkee is its no-reservation policies. The students here are admitted solely based on merit so you will always be surrounded by geniuses.

So yes the IIT tag matters but not more than our branch preferences, and that being said, IIIT Hyderabad is the best for CSE so your daughter has made a wise decision!

I've got CSE in NSIT, DTU, IIIT-D and NIT Surathkal, which one should I go for?

AB

NIT Surathkal is better than Delhi engineering colleges like NSIT, DTU and IIIT Delhi because it offers a more diverse experience. Here are a few aspects to consider

  • Reputation : NIT Surathkal enjoys the status of being an Institute of National importance and is fully funded by the Central government whereas DTU, NSIT, and IIITD are state government universities
  • Research culture: NIT Surathkal has a rich research culture and facilities and is one of the institutes which is selected for funding from HEFA
  • Academics : NIT Surathkal is a clear winner as its academic environment and curriculum are way better than Delhi colleges. Every year many students win International awards.
  • Campus life: NIT Surathkal has a private beach with a lush green campus of 300 acres. Moreover, its crowd is much more diverse than Delhi colleges which have 85% quota for Delhites. 
  • Location : Situated near the IT hub, Bangalore NIT Surathkal students are exposed to more opportunities and a better IT environment. Many Bangalore IT companies give preference to NITK Surathkal students. 
  • Placements : NIT Surathkal achieves 100% placement and has a better variety of recruiters than Delhi colleges. 
  • Coding Culture: NIT Surathkal has received good rankings in the ICPC Asia Contest and every year many students are selected for Google Summer of Code.
  • ROI : NIT Surathkal offers a better ROI because it charges lesser fees than NSIT, DTU, and IIIT Delhi. 

So, it's safe to say NIT Surathkal is a much better option than Delhi colleges.

Which should I choose: NIT Kurukshetra CS or DTU electrical engineering?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 1st, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Out of the two, I suggest you choose CS at NIT Kurukshetra. The reasons are-

  1. CS and IT provide much better job opportunities than other branches.
  2. The subjects, overall curriculum and practicals of CS are much more interesting than Electrical.
  3. At NIT Kurukshetra, the CS/ IT placements are good.
  4. Companies like Snapdeal, Flipkart, Amazon, Lenskart, HP, etc. visit the NIT Kurukshetra campus during placement season.

DTU is a good college as well. But considering the branch you are getting offered at each, I recommend you choose NIT Kurukshetra. NIT Kurukshetra offers a good curriculum and placements in CS/IT.

Which one is better-Electronics and communications in Dtu or nsit?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 5th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

My sister pursued her B.E. in Electronics and Communication from NSIT (NSUT). She was also confused between the two options when she got her JEE Mains rank. Finally, she chose NSUT. These are the reasons behind her decision-

  1. NSIT (NSUT) is well-known for Electronics. Before their separation, NSUT was a part of DTU that specialized in Electronics.
  2. The faculty for electronics is better at NSUT. There are well-known and highly respected faculty members under whom you can do various projects.
  3. The CEDT Lab at NSUT, funded by Texas Instruments is famous in other colleges as well and people from other colleges also enroll themselves to work in the CEDT Lab.
  4. NSUT is not as overpopulated as DTU. This leads to comparatively less competition and better placement opportunities.

Overall, NSUT is a better choice to pursue your Electronics and Communication Engineering.

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.

How is the MCA program at NIT Kurukshetra? Is it at least comparable to that of NIT Allahabad or Trichy?

Namrata Das Posted On : September 2nd, 2023

The MCA program offered by NIT Kurukshetra is highly regarded and can be compared to that of NIT Trichy easily. It offers the resources, academic environment, and facilities necessary for a good learning experience. However, at some point, you have to resort to self-studying because the teachers cannot spoon-feed you all the time. 

You will have to make yourself eligible for the placements by working hard to add value to your CV. More than the reputation of the institute it's your efforts that matter. You can join various tech clubs to get better exposure and learn coding.

Here is a brief overview of the MCA program offered at NIT Kurukshetra
