I live in Vadodara. Which is better MSU or DDU Nadiad for computers?

Chirag Dey,B.Tech Computer Science, Dharmsinh Desai University, Nadiad (2014)

One of my friends studied in DDU and after gathering some information online, I can give you a proper comparison. Analyzing this you will be able to make your decision.

DDU has an edge over MSU, when comparing CSE departments.
MSU's programming events at their annual technical festival, FootPrints, was also disappointing.
They use outdated equipment in their labs and the overall competition was not as good as DDU.

The Computer Engineering course of DDU has programming languages and technologies early on in the 4 year duration and core CS theory subjects after, unlike MSU.
Java is taught in DDU in the 3rd sem but in MSU, it comes in the 6th.
Web technologies are introduced in DDU in the 4th sem unlike MSU .If you choose DDU, expect lots of exams and strict rules.
FootPrints at MSU happen at a much larger scale than DDU's Felicific.
The DDU schedule will keep you busy and focussing less on extracurricular activities.
MSU hostels have received a lot of student complaints. In comparison, DDU's hostel is more comforting.

Categories	DDU	MSU
Course Fee	INR 6.08 lakh	INR 6,000
Highest CTC	10 LPA	8 LPA
Average CTC	6 LPA	3.5 LPA
Recruiting Companies	TCS, Infosys, Crest Data Systems, etc.	TCS, Wipro, Infosys, etc.

It is suggested that you go for DDU instead of MSU. But finally it is your choice. Choose the one that meets your needs and requirements, as it will be easier to blend in.

Which college is better, LD or MSU Baroda?

Piya ThakkerBE from The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda (2022)

It depends on the course you are willing to pursue. As one of my friends is an alumni of MSU and also knows about LD, I can help you with the question.

According to him, if you are willing to study engineering then MSU would be a better choice than LD. The overall academics and curriculum is better at MSU, whereas LD has a somewhat better reputation among industries than MSU. Therefore, placements are better in LD.

But if you think you can secure a job offer by yourself go for MSU as they will provide you with the proper academic guidance.

Categories	LD Ahmedabad	MSU Baroda
Placement Percentage	80%	60%
Highest CTC	10 LPA	8 LPA
Average CTC	4.50 LPA	4-5 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Accenture, Wipro, IBM, HCL, etc.	L&T, Essar, Infosys, Reliance, etc.

Also if location is your preference then if you are near to Vadodara go for MSU and if you are close to Ahmedabad go for LD.
