What should I choose between SVNIT CS or DAIICT?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : January 4th, 2024

My JEE Mains rank was good enough to get me a seat at SVNIT for B.Tech CSE. I finally decided to join ICT at DAIICT because-

  1. The faculty members have completed their Phds from renowned Indian and foreign universities, and each of them are actively engaged in some research work.
  2. The course curriculum is regularly updated, unlike the NITs that keep on teaching the old curriculum for long periods of time without regular updates.
  3. ICT is a combination of CSE and ECE. So its curriculum is very broad and rich. This is the reason why more companies prefer DAIICT over SVNIT.
  4. Only about 360 students are selected for the B.Tech program of DAIICT every year. This speaks volumes about the quality of students on campus. 
  5. A good number of DAIICT students are selected for GSoC.
  6. The coding culture is at par with IIIT Hyderabad and top IITs. DAIICT students go on to become ACM ICPC finalists. The environment is perfect for competitive coding, and the students are doing really well on popular competitive coding platforms like Hackerrank.
  7. The clubs and societies of DAIICT are very active. There is an IEEE Student branch, with IAS (Industry Applications Society) chapter.
  8. There are special interest groups for machine learning, mobile apps, artificial intelligence, etc. There are technical clubs like Programming club, Google Developers Group, Microsoft Students Technical Club, Webkit, etc.
  9. Some of the non technical clubs are- the Debate club, the Press club, the Dance club, the Music club, and more.
  10. The SBG-Student Body Government is a mediator between the administration and the student community. The seniors of SBG are very friendly and helpful. They can be approached with any problem.
  11.  Like SVNIT, the DAIICT campus is also ragging free and very safe for juniors. 

I would recommend you opt for ICT at DAIICT Gandhinagar.

Which is better for CS/ECE NIT Hamirpur, NIT Jalandhar, IIIT Kancheepuram, IIIT Jabalpur ?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 14th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

First, I would like you to address your branch preference. Choosing a branch should be the top most priority. CSE and ECE are quite different from one another. Although IITs/IIITs/NITs do offer a branch change option, it is quite difficult to get it. So I would suggest you make up your mind on which branch truly interests you.

Now coming to the colleges. Choose IIIT Jabalpur for a CSE branch. This is because IIITs offer good placements, curriculum and culture in this branch. Even IIIT Kancheepuram is a good option for CSE. But the distance from home and food form an integral part of this decision-making. Assuming you aren’t from South India, the lifestyle and eating habits might be difficult to adapt to. As far as NIT Hamirpur and NIT Jalandhar are concerned, choose them if you are planning for an ECE degree. They are good colleges as well. 

First prioritize your branch and then choose your college among these four. I won’t suggest you go by college rankings. Basically, choose your branch first and then decide the best college for yourself.

Which is a better college for CS, JNTUH or CBIT?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : August 3rd, 2023

Before I tell you about the better institute between JNTU Hyderabad and CBIT, let me ask you a question. Are you genuinely interested in CS, or is it just because it’s a highly coveted branch and everyone is after it these days? You need to determine if you are serious about becoming a coder or a computer programmer or if is it just because you want to get placed early.

Once you are sure about CS, then considering the quality of education, infrastructure, and experienced professors, JNTUH seems to be the better option. 

Ultimately, the institute does not guarantee your chances of success but your passion and hard work do.

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : September 6th, 2023

You can opt for NIT Warangal even if you get admission to another branch. They have an interesting branch-changing policy.

How is life of a CS student in NSIT and DTU as compared with life of a CS student in an IIT?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 22nd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Here are a few points of differences between the life of a CS student in NSUT/Delhi and life of a CS student in an IIT

  • Academic Workload: The first-year students in NSUT and DTU have a laid-back and relaxed experience with no academic pressure of completing assignments, preparing for internals, performing practicals, etc. Whereas IITians are busy with a hectic schedule and rigorous academics right from the first year. They have to be serious about their practicals, labs, and assignments.
  • Attendance Policy: Although NSUT and DTU have a 75% attendance policy NSUT students don’t follow and the consequences aren’t very serious. IITs on the other hand are very serious about attendance policies. Students need to attend classes, tutorials, and labs each requiring 75% attendance.
  • Curriculum: NSUT and DTU have a relatively lighter and easier curriculum than IITs which have a very rigorous and challenging course syllabus. 
  • Campus life: NSUT and DTU have relatively dull campus life than IITs. Students are not involved in organizing summits, seminars, presentations, events, etc. While in IITs the campus is buzzing with some or other activities every day. 
  • Hostel life: Unfortunately in India, the quality of hostel life depends on your gender. If you are a girl you will have a full life anywhere whereas if you are a boy you will get full freedom at either place.
  • Placements: Placements won’t be an issue if you are a CSE graduate because both NSUT and IITs offer similar opportunities.

Hope the comparison helps you get a better understanding of lives in different colleges.

What CGPA is required to upgrade from civil engineering to computer science at IIT Roorkee?

RS
Radhika Srivastava Posted On : April 12th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee

At IIT Roorkee, students can change their branch right after the first semester, unlike other IITs where you have to necessarily complete a whole year. Based on the available data for 2018, the SGPA cutoff is 9.809.

Based on the above data, a student has to score at least 206/210-grade points to be eligible for branch change from Civil to CSE. However, it’s important to note that changing your branch to CSE is very challenging as you will be competing with more than 1000 IITtians (everyone is a genius) just for 8 seats. One required a high level of determination and motivation to be able to secure 9.3*. Give your level best and then leave the rest to your luck as it’s difficult but not completely impossible.
