CSE is considered a better option than ECE in today’s current scenario and has much better scope and field of work. The scope for CSE broadens with each passing day and with every new invention in the fields of technology and the IT sector. Although ECE is one of the core branches of IET Lucknow still CSE has more demand compared to it.

Following are some drawbacks of the ECE branch at IET Lucknow over CSE:

• You need a higher percentage of attendance to become eligible for exams. Less attendance leads to deduction of marks.
• The syllabus is huge for every semester
• The professors are very strict with the evaluation process and do not give marks easily
• There are a lot of lab practicals and assignments to complete in a very short period of time.

CSE has a better environment than ECE with no strict attendance regulation. The professors in the CSE department are friendly. The placement of the CSE branch is far better than any other branch in IET Lucknow. 

NIT Uttarakhand is the last choice of the majority of students among all other NITs. It has the lowest ranking, poor placement records, and no awards or academic excellence. It is considered a Tier 4 institute. 

On the other hand, IET Lucknow is a prestigious institution, especially for engineering students. It is one of the best UPSEE institutes in Lucknow. Moreover, it is considered academically strong and has earned good recognition.

Check the following table for a brief insight on relevant statistics of both institutes:

Generally, ECE is better than ME but it applies to the institutes which are nearly on the same level. In this scenario, pursuing ME from IET Lucknow would be the better option in terms of placements, a recognition that would later help you in finding a job through off-campus placement.

Yes, you can undeniably secure a seat at IET Lucknow. Having said that, you can conveniently reserve a seat in either CS or IT at IET Lucknow. Other than that, you can also try obtaining admission at either of these institutes as well, that is, KNIT Sultanpur or BIET Jhansi.

Here is a detailed cut off list, based on each round, followed by IET Lucknow in the year 2020:

So, yes there are chances for you to get into IET Lucknow.

I would suggest you to go for JMI Delhi. The reason for this is that JMI is very similar to the NITs. The environment and crowd are top-notch. Seniors at Jamia are also very helpful and cooperative. 

The professors and other members of the faculty are well-experienced. They even help you plan your career after college. JMI alumni help you out in getting jobs and a decent salary amount.

The table below depicts the placement scenario of JMI and IET:

Though it is your decision to make, I still would prefer the fact that you choose JMI Delhi over IET Lucknow, for CSE or ECE. Studying in a well-reputed institution with years of educational experience is much better. This will help in networking as well.

I have a few friends from IET, so I think I can give some information about the institute. Here are some points to consider. 

• The infrastructure is slightly decent, yet not the best.
• You will also acquire clean and an immaculate hostel facility, alongside incomparable mess food at a very considerable rate in the first year.
• However, the hostels allotted to students after their first year are not at their best stage. Students generally obtain old hostel rooms, with a certain substandard infrastructure quality. The food quality yet remains the best, irrespective of the year students are in.
• The lab facilities are not at their best. 
• The faculty is usually exceptional during the first year, but the semesters following that are commonly taken by guest faculties. 
• Most core branch students do not prepare for placements. Students commonly prepare for their SSC, GATE, ESE, and other similar exams during their stay in the institute. 
• In Computer Science, students generally get placed in service-based companies, with a decent average package. However, students who are well prepared secure offers in top firms like Adobe, Amazon, and more. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered to the students is 5 LPA. 

Securing admission at IET Lucknow can be a very good choice. It is considered amongst the several top institutes of the country. 

Choosing between NIT and IET Lucknow will be a tough task. As both have their own qualities and reputation.

• If you are hardworking and sincere enough with good academics then learning new skills will be easier for you. 
• You will gain the knowledge of working in industry through proper training offered by the colleges, be it NIT or IET.
• If you want to choose between the colleges, consider some points. 
• These include Course fees, Facilities, Infrastructure, faculty, alumni network, placements, academics, etc. 
• But yes, if you are getting any decent NIT with a good branch then you should go for it. 
• If a particular branch is not your utmost priority, then you can go for the top NITs. 
• In case you are not getting any good NIT then go for IET Lucknow to pursue Electronics and Instrumentation.

This is a brief information I am able to provide. I hope it helps you in choosing the best college for yourself.

Both IET Lucknow and Banasthali are very good colleges for CSE and offer very good facilities to its students. Having to know some people studying in both these colleges, I can share some details about them which might answer your question.

• In IET Lucknow, students get very good opportunities in terms of internships and placements. 
• A lot of companies visit the campus for placements but they select a few deserving students. Make sure you have the knowledge and skills to secure placements.
• Banasthali is also a very good college to pursue CSE. 
• The campus is very big and the hostels are well maintained. The placement scenario is better than IET. 
• Many top companies like Microsoft, Goldman Sachs visit the campus for placement opportunities.

Hence, both the colleges are very good in terms of placements and college life and it depends on your preferences and requirements on which college you will choose and take admission. 

Having friends in these institutions, I am well aware that HBTU Kanpur is much better than IIIT Bhopal and IET Lucknow. Though one thing has been seen that the performance of the CSE department is generally the same in all the colleges. They all provide enough industry exposure to the students. 

This table might help you in seeing the basic differences between these institutions - 

It is advised to join HBTU Kanpur or IET Lucknow than IIIT Bhopal, as the former are an older establishment than the latter which is comparatively new. Classes at IIIT Bhopal are scheduled according to MANIT Bhopal. Also the students are provided RGPV hostels. So it will be better if you go for HBTU.
