Which would be better, “Civil MNNIT Allahabad or Civil NIT Surathkal?” I am a North Indian.
It is difficult to shift to a location that is far away from home. As a North Indian who was faced with a similar situation, I can completely understand your hesitation in choosing NITK.
Talking about this branch, the placements of Civil are comparatively low, irrespective of your college. Even in the IITs, a number of Civil students remain unplaced. But overall, the placements for Civil are slightly better at NIT Surathkal. NITK also has better infrastructure and a private beach.
But if you plan to prepare for UPSC or GATE, like most Civil students, MNNIT is an ideal choice. MNNIT students secure top ranks in these exams. The environment of MNNIT is ideal for the preparation of competitive exams. I am not aware of the environment provided at NITK for competitive exam preparation.
Both MNNIT and NIT Surathkal are renowned colleges. Both are good choices. You should choose between them based on personal preference. I would also recommend you approach some seniors from NITK to learn about the lifestyle and eating habits over there. Try to find out if the place will suit you or not.
What stuff do I need in the hostel of MNNIT Allahabad?
The answer is a bit subjective because you need to carry the things that are important to you. But as far as basic necessities are concerned, here’s a list of them-
- Clothes for the hostel and the college.
- Some homemade snacks. The hostel canteen’s food may not be to your liking, and its timings may not match yours.
- Bedsheets, a pillow and a mosquito net. The bedding is available over here, but they sell it for very high prices.
- A rope to dry laundry, an extension cord, and an umbrella (the monsoon starts around mid July).
- Clothes for fests and outings.
- All the other things are easily accessible over here.
- Other than all these things, you may carry a laptop, an electric kettle, a hard disk and a bicycle (although you can easily buy a first or second hand bicycle over here).
This is all you need to carry for a smooth stay at the MNNIT Allahabad hostel.
How are so many people from the MNNIT Allahabad able to clear the ESE and the GATE civil engineering tests?
The students of MNNIT Allahabad successfully clear GATE/ESE through their hard work and dedication.
Here are my observations in this matter-
- Such students support each other. No one is good at every topic, so they seek help from their friends, whenever needed.
- They spend long hours self studying. I’ve personally witnessed some students study for long hours (with regular breaks in between) in the college library.
- They maintain good connections with the faculty members, and seek their guidance from time to time.
- They re-energize themselves by spending quality time with friends, and engaging in fun activities.
As much as I have observed, it is their discipline and a planned routine that helps such students excel in their life.
How is the placements at MNNIT Allahabad for M.Tech in Communication Systems?
First and foremost, best of luck for your M.Tech admissions.
The M.Tech ECE placements are average at MNNIT Allahabad. The placements largely depend upon the expected number of recruitments from visiting companies for a particular year.
Companies like Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Idea Cellular visit the campus with limited job vacancies. Other companies that make M.Tech ECE recruitments from our college include Tejas Networks, Digicomm semiconductors, Eximius, etc. Apart from that, M.Tech ECE students get the opportunity to sit for some software companies as well.
Maintain 9+ CGPA (doing so is easy) and focus more on doing projects using tools like MATLAB, NS-2 and System Vue. By doing so, you’ll increase your chances of getting a good package during the placement season.
Thus, the Communication Systems placements are quite decent at MNNIT, but everything boils down to your individual efforts.

What should I prefer between NSUT CSAI, IIIT Allahabad IT and MNNIT Allahabad CS?
Both IIIT Allahabad and MNNIT are highly regarded engineering colleges in North India offering premium quality education. Placements-wide, MNNIT CSE is slightly better compared to both NSUT and IIITA. In my opinion, the preference order should be
MNNIT CSE >= IIITA IT > NSUT CS/AI
MNNIT is the first choice because it’s on Eid the top 5 NITs with the most sought-after branch CSE. IIIT Allahabad is also a great choice for CSE because it has a CS-tailored curriculum and ambiance.
Overall I feel if you are certain of joining an IT company, and have an interest in coding and computers go for IIIT Allahabad IT or MNNIT Allahabad. If you are unsure of your branch preference go for NSUT.
