Which one would be a better choice, in terms of career, if one has the option to pursue a B.Tech/M.Tech in CSE from either the NITs/BITS or IIIT Hyderabad?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : July 28th, 2023

One of my friends was in a similar dilemma when he had to choose between NIT, BITS Pilani, and IIIT Hyderabad. Visiting the NITs he found out about their poor infrastructure so removed it from his preference list. Confused between BITS and IIIT he decided to consult his cousin in BITS and eventually decided to go for it. Today, he claims that choosing BITS was one of the wisest decisions of his life. He stated his entire experience that I have summarised below in points

  • BITS Pilani focuses on the holistic development of its students and its wide range of  clubs, departments, disciplinary associations, and regional associations develop you as a person and not just as an engineer.
  • The institute instills a sense of responsibility within you and you become an emphatic part of the society. 
  • BITS Pilani gives you the chance to work on interdisciplinary projects with mechanical and electrical engineering students, 
  • Here you will see an active entrepreneurship culture and the professors not only motivate but also assist the students in the same.
  • The research culture is another prominent feature and my friend won several international accolades.
  • You will be surprised to know that BITS is the only private Indian university that is working on sensitive military projects.
  • The BITS tag does help in securing good packages but the rest of the journey depends on your efforts, performance, practical experience, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

So, every institute be it IIIT Hyderabad, BITS Pilani or NIT Trichy offers its own kind of opportunities, culture, and resources. It depends on you, how much you are willing to make the most out of them.

For CSE, you will need a CGPA of above 9. Naturally, the required CGPA varies each year, depending on competition, seat availability, etc. CSE is the most sought-after, so the CGPA requirement usually stays high. There are also other additional rules regarding branch changes. IIT Madras allows a maximum change of 10% in both branches.

Computer Science Engineer from National Institute of Technology, Srinagar (2018)

If you are considering NIT Srinagar for CSE, here are a few things you should know-

  2. You’ll be eligible for a good number of companies visiting the campus during the placement season.
  3. The permanent teachers are good but less in number. 
  4. Though the teachers are good, you’ll have to heavily depend on self-study.

Here are a few points about NIT Srinagar in general-

  1. Srinagar will allow you to enjoy the beauty of nature. You’ll lack access to malls and cinema halls, but the mesmerizing weather will be worth everything.The weather remains cold for 7 to 8 months of the year.
  2. You can go for a stroll or play sports on the banks of Dal Lake. 
  3. There’s unfortunately, corruption in the college administrative and management units.
  4. The hostels have WiFi and ultra-high-speed broadband lines.
  5. The mess food isn’t great, and vegetarians/Jains have very limited food options, both inside and outside the campus.
  6. There are holidays due to frequent strikes, ‘bandhs’ and curfews.
  7. The number of girls on campus is quite low.

You won’t be offered a typical college experience at NIT Srinagar. But this place will teach you a lot. Academically, you’ll be on your own. But for a stress-free campus life, you can consider this college.

The following are the factors that one should consider before joining CSE in Amity University Kolkata:

  • Admission and Scholarship

The students are supposed to attend Amity Joint Entrance Examination and their scores in the 12th standard are also a deciding factor to grab the seats in CSE or in any branch the students are interested in. The scholarship facilities are offered to the students on the Merit list.

What do you think of IIT Hyderabad launching India's first B Tech in artificial Intelligence?

SA
Shruti Agarwal Posted On : May 9th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (IITH)

We have witnessed a shift from the EE department to the CSE department due to advancements in computer science. Today, CS is indispensable in every field. AI field is similarly gaining momentum and is expected to reach heights in the future. To make the most out of AI, some universities have started including this course in their current curriculum while the more passionate ones have chosen to create a separate department dedicated to it. For instance, MIT and CMU have recognized the hidden potential of AI and are already establishing a separate department for it.

Many are concerned if IIT Hyderabad will be able to tap the potential of AI rightly or not. However, the MTech in Machine Learning Program offered by IIT Hyderabad is a living example of how well they will be able to establish the AI branch as well. 

IIT Hyderabad has some great faculty both in the CSE and EE Department who have great experiences in the field of machine learning, computer vision, speech and image processing, NLP, text processing, statistics and probability, etc.

However, it’s recommended that people go through the curriculum and talk to seniors before taking up this course. Genuine passion and interest in this field is required to take up this course else you will end up regretting your decision.
