Questions Asked On MANIT Bhopal, Bhopal

Have known some people who have pursued M.Tech in CSE from NIT Kurukshetra, NIT Bhopal, and IIIT Allahabad. I can say that you can opt for IIIT Allahabad for CSE. Do not choose NIT Kurukshetra.

• At NIT Kurukshetra the examination cell is not good and placements are average.
• IIIT Allahabad is better in terms of placements, faculty, exposure, etc.
• At IIIT Allahabad, top companies like Infosys, Capgemini, Byju’s, Oracle, JP Morgan, TCS, IBM, Amazon, Jaro Education, etc. take part in their placement program.
• They also have an active coding culture.

IIIT Allahabad is a good choice for M.Tech in CSE. You can also go for NIT Bhopal which has a good placement record. But lacks a good teaching-learning process. So, It is suggested you go for IIIT Allahabad, as it will be the best option for you.

One of my friends told me that these three institutes must be in this order like; IIIT A>>> NIT Bhopal>= NIT Rourkela. Although he was a student of NIT Rourkela.

He stated that between these three, Rourkela and Bhopal are more or less equal. However, both of these institutes consist of some advantages and disadvantages as well. 

If NIT Bhopal is considered and compared with NIT Rourkela, then it must be said that NIT Bhopal's strength is a large batch size; IT+CSE. But the main advantage of NIT Bhopal is the location and nearby airport transport facilities that conceal all the advantages of this institute. For this reason, NIT Bhopal experiences big recruiters every year, and NIT Rourkela misses this entirely. This is the reason why NIT Bhopal is one step ahead of NIT Rourkela.

However, at NIT Rourkela, M.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) is almost similar to doing M.Tech in IITs. But in the case of Bhopal, the students can sit for placements for all the big companies in the campus recruitment process along with B.Tech companies. It will be better to avoid IIIT Allahabad for doing M.Tech in CSE, as placement opportunities in this institute are not good. This thing is that IIIT Allahabad does not allow M.Tech students to attend for placement in the on-campus recruitment process.

Thus, it can be stated that for the B.Tech course, IIIT Allahabad>> NIT Bhopal> NIT Rourkela.

CSE is the most promising B.Tech branch at MANIT Bhopal.

Companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Samsung R&D, etc. visit the campus to recruit B.Tech CSE students, and the average package is around 17 LPA for the branch.

You’ll meet some highly talented peers in the CSE department, many of whom would’ve tried their hands at coding even prior to joining the college. You must practice coding through various online platforms in order to build a strong skill set. 

This is all the information regarding the average package for B.Tech CSE at MANIT. 

I will describe my experience of hostel 10, through which you’ll get an idea of the hostels at MANIT Bhopal-

B.Tech freshers are allotted Hostel 10 at MANIT. The hostel is divided into four blocks- A,B,C and D. Each block has 32 dorm rooms, two washroom complexes, two water coolers, an internal courtyard, a mess hall, two common rooms, a guest house, and a T.T. room. 

The freshers stay in blocks C and D, and blocks A and B are given to senior B.Tech students. Block C and D are isolated and fenced from the other two blocks. All the rooms are well maintained and in good condition. Due to a shortage of rooms, three students share a single room, instead of two. 

The hostel wifi gives decent connectivity. If lucky, you’ll have access to good wifi speed in your hostel room, otherwise, you’ll have to manage with your own internet connection. There is no LAN connectivity in the hostel at present. You can use electrical appliances as no checking takes place. If you get a back facing room in C block, you’ll have access to a serene balcony view. The common rooms are used for DJ nights, Ganesh Chaturthi, etc. We also play holi on the premises. The night view from the rooftop is mesmerizing. 

Overall, the hostels at MANIT Bhopal are spacious and well maintained.

I would like to add on to the previous answer and mention a few important points regarding branch change at MANIT Bhopal-

1. The HS and OS quota are maintained during branch change. 
2. The Open category seats can be claimed by SC/ST/OBC students with better scores, but not vice versa.
3. Only 10% students from the original strength can opt for transfer from their branch.
4. The number of vacant seats has reduced over the years, making branch change more and more difficult.
5. I would advise you to choose your branch wisely from the beginning itself. It is highly probable that you end up with the same branch for four years.

Try to make the most of your stay at MANIT, and choose your field of study wisely.
