Which college should I choose for CSE, IET Lucknow or JSS Noida? The fees are not an issue. Focus on environment, campus, hostel and what is taught in CSE.

Aishikh Arora Posted On : August 5th, 2021
Studies CSE at JSS Noida, (2018)

I can give you some information on both institutes since I have friends from both IET Lucknow and JSS Noida. Based on the reviews that I got from my friends I will say choosing JSS Noida will be better. It has a locational advantage, which plays a crucial role.

  • The curriculum of JSS Noida is in accordance with the current industry trends. In the first two semesters, you will learn the same courses as any other engineering institutes in India. You can get the detailed syllabus from the website.
  • JSS has a good reputation in the industry. Alumni of the institute are working on Google, Microsoft, etc. Many reputed companies visit the campus for the placement drive including IBM, Wipro, TCS, Amazon, etc.

For IET, the location is an issue. The faculty and curriculum are not that great either. So, I will suggest you choose JSS Noida.

Which is a better option college for CSE or IT - VIT Vellore or IIIT Allahabad?

AC
Arindam Chakraborty Posted On : March 11th, 2021
Studied Electronics and Communication Engineering at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2018)

Considering this question, the first thing that can be highlighted is that both of these institutes cannot be compared at all. However, studying IT in IIIT Allahabad is far better as it offers several opportunities, as well as institutional environment and infrastructure to assist the student in their career growth appropriately.

However, CSE at Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) is not so secure considering the programming prospects and study culture that the student will get at IIITA. This choice is easy enough for the student to make as per their career perspectives. 

The following table gives a brief overview of these two institutes:

Criteria

IIITA

VIT

Highest CTC

43 LPA

41.6 LPA

Lowest CTC

20.83 LPA

7 LPA

Companies Visited

120+

80+

Placement Statistics

95%

80%

Thus, considering the above facts, it can be stated that between these two institutes, the student must go for IIIT Allahabad, as VIT can’t be compared at all.

Should I join NIT Warangal for CSE or a new IIT with civil engineering?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : August 18th, 2023

I always recommend people give preference to branches over the institute. This is because if you go for a less preferred branch, you will end up taking a software job anyways. So it’s better to choose a NIT instead of an IIT provided that you get CSE. 

If you join the CSE branch at NIT Warangal you will develop software skills and succeed in the field rather than taking up the job just because you had no other options in Civil. The exposure offered to CSE in NIT Warangal is great and students can be seen participating in coding competitions that enhance their coding abilities tenfold. You end up becoming a skilled programmer and not an average programmer who had to choose the field unwillingly. 

So, joining NI MT Warangal CSE is a better option than joining Civil Engineering at a new IIT unless you want to get government jobs like IES, Civil services.

I am getting IIT Patna CSE, but being from Delhi, living in Patna scares the hell out of me. How can I deal with this thought?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : June 20th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

My friend is a student at IIT Patna and shared his side of the story about city life there. Unlike the general misconception, Patna is rather a safe city. 

He visited the city frequently to buy basic things and never did he feel unsafe or comfortable during the 4 years of his stay. 

The campus of IIT Patna spreads across a massive 500 acres and is beautifully designed. The campus is still in its development phase but not to the extent that it will hamper your college life experience in any way. Students can be seen roaming around and indulging in sports such as table tennis and cricket. 

As for the CS department, IIT Patna is very dynamic and has many clubs that will keep you motivated and interested in the field. I would certainly recommend you to go to IIT Patna and experience the bliss of college life.

How is the IT branch at IIEST Shibpur? How are the faculty and placements related to IT branch? Is it comparable to CSE here?

AS
Aakansha Singh Posted On : March 5th, 2021
B.Tech Information Technology, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2021)

IT at IIEST Shibpur can be good but you need to utilize the opportunities you get properly. The infrastructure at the institute is good. Microsoft also recruits students from campus placements. In the past students have bagged good internship opportunities. One of the students was accepted for Google California (Internship). Compared to the CSE, the IT branch is a little behind in terms of salary packages offered. However, this branch has good diversity. 

Faculties for CSE and IT branches are comparable and the IT department even has better faculty members for a few of the subjects. The main difference between CSE and IT is that IT is a sandwich branch of CST and Electronics. So, naturally, you will need to study some Electronics subjects too. For Communication Systems, the IT branch does not have decent faculties. Adding to that, the subject is also not that useful for the future. Despite that this subject eats a chunk of the time of IT students. 

Another difference is CST introduces important subjects like algorithms in the 2nd year itself. Whereas, IT introduces these topics one year later. 

Basically, the essence is the same for the two branches, there are some minor differences in curriculum and lab work. How you do in placements depends on your hard work.

In terms of placement, faculty and infrastructure which one is better for CSE: Kalyani Government Engineering College or Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College?

JG
Joyita Ghosh Posted On : May 5th, 2021
B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Kalyani Government Engineering College, graduated, 2020

A friend of mine has told me that CSE in Kalyani Government Engineering College is better than that in Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College. It can be owed to the location of both places. Kalyani is an IT hub and it is not far from Kolkata. On the other hand, it will take you twelve hours to reach Jalpaiguri from Kolkata by train. It goes without saying that CSE of Kalyani Government Engineering College is better and obviously more preferred to that of Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College.

The placements in both colleges are pretty much the same. The average package of both colleges is around 3.5 LPA in IT companies. It has to be said that more students get placed from KGEC.

KGEC is the more sought after institute because it attracts the better-ranked students. Most of the students whose ranks are under 3000 are from Kolkata, Hooghly, North 24 and South 24 Parganas regions. The faculty and infrastructure of both institutions are also pretty much similar.
