Which is better for B.Tech in CS: Neotia Institute of Engineering, Kolkata or University of Engineering and Management, Kolkata?

SC
Sudipa Chatterjee Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Studied at Jadavpur University (2019)

Both institutions are private colleges and there is not much difference between these two. They provide similar kinds of placement facilities. Some of my friends studying at both institutes pointed out that the overall performance of Neotia is better than UEM.

  • You should start learning coding from the first year itself in order to get good placements. The college will never teach you coding.
  • Neotia College is an old institution whereas UEM is a new one.
  • UEM will provide you better practical exposure whereas Neotia College is much better for CS stream.
  • As most of the IT companies visit the campus for placements, if you are good in technical skills then you will find a whole lot of opportunities here.
  • The faculties are good at Neotia College.
  • The college also has a lot of extracurricular activities groups which will help you in developing your skills.
Categories NITMAS UEM
Course Fee 4.04 lakh 5.81 LPA
Highest CTC 16 LPA 12 LPA
Average CTC 8 LPA 8 LPA
Recruiting Companies Wipro, TCS, Cognizant, Accenture, etc. Infosys, Byju’s, TCS, HCL, etc.

Thus it is suggested that you check everything thoroughly before settling down at an institute. As this will shape your career, so choose wisely. The older colleges have more popularity among companies as well as students. They tend to be more reliable.

Should I take Chemical Engineering at IIT Roorkee, ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar or EEE at IIT Mandi ?

KB
Keshav Behera Posted On : August 14th, 2020
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee

The major factor that drives the decision of which course to pursue is the placements.

Chemical Engineering- IIT Roorkee

As per the 2018-19 placements record, more than 250 companies participated in campus placements, some of them were ITC, Reliance, Jindal Steel, TATA, and many more. Chemical Engineering Students at IIT Roorkee recorded an average placement of INR 13.05 lakhs per annum. A total of 8 PPOs were offered to Chemical Engineering students. Roles were offered for Technologist, Researcher, Data Scientist, Data Analyst, Consultant, etc. The placement rate for Chemical Engineering was around 80%.

ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar

ECE is one of the new branches of IIT Bhubaneswar and was introduced in 2016. Due to this, the first batch to pass out would be the batch of 2020. So there are no past records for this course. However, seeing the trend of placements for electrical engineering, the same can be assumed for ECE as well. In the year 2018-2019, 86% of the Electrical Engineering Department was placed. Companies like Amazon, INTEL Technology, ISRO, DELL, Thermax, Tata Steel, and many more visited to recruit students during campus placements. The average placement was recorded at INR Rs. 11.44 lakhs per annum.

EEE at IIT Mandi

As per 2019-20 placements, 62.5% of EEE were placed during phase-1 of campus placements. A total of 75 companies visited the campus and some of the top recruiters were Accenture, Wipro, CISCO, ISRO, CSC India, Siemens to name a few. The average package offered was 13.5 lakhs per annum. Several PPOs were also offered.

Considering the placements data, you should choose Chemical Engineering at IIT Roorkee. However, the final decision of which course and college to select rests up to you.

studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati

If you are certain about your branch choice, then go for Civil at IIT Kanpur. If you aren’t sure about the branch then choosing IIT Kanpur among these three IITs will be better. In 2021, NIRF ranked IIT Kanpur #6 in the country. Although it’s not easy you can change your branch after a year. But you can’t change your college.

Which is better: Civil at IIT Madras or CSE at IIT Dhanbad?

AS
Arati Sinha Posted On : March 29th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras

If you are facing a dilemma between choosing computer science at ISM Dhanbad and civil engineering at IIT Madras, here are some points to consider:

  1. Passion: Before making a decision, think about which field you are more passionate about. Consider factors such as your academic performance, interests, and long-term career goals.
  2. College Comparison: Both ISM Dhanbad and IIT Madras are excellent institutions with their own set of strengths and advantages. Research the colleges, their curriculum, faculty, campus life, and other factors that matter to you.
  3. Branch Change Advantage: If you are still unsure about your passion, one factor that might tip the scales in favor of ISM Dhanbad is the branch change advantage. In ISM Dhanbad, you can choose CS as your major and switch to another branch after the first year if you find that CS is not your passion. This is because many students in IITs try to switch to CS after the first year, creating an opportunity for branch exchange.
  4. Career Prospects: Computer science is a rapidly growing field with high demand for skilled professionals, while civil engineering offers a diverse range of career opportunities such as construction management, structural engineering, and environmental engineering.
  5. Your Situation: It may also play a role in your decision. Consider factors such as your financial situation, location preferences, and family commitments.

The decision between choosing computer science at ISM Dhanbad and civil engineering at IIT Madras is a personal one that depends on various factors. By considering your passion, college comparison, branch change advantage, career prospects, and personal situation, you can make an informed decision that aligns with your interests and goals.

How is Velammal Engineering College Chennai for ECE?

RM
Ritabrita Mitra Posted On : March 29th, 2023
studied at Indian Statistical Institute

Velammal Engineering College, located in Chennai, is a well-known institution that offers a range of undergraduate and postgraduate programs, including ECE. However, there are some concerns about the college that are mentioned below:

  • Funding: Velammal Medical College and Velammal Schools need money and are funded by VEC, VIT, and Velammal College in Madurai. 
  • Charges and Food: VEC charges a breakage fee at the end of the semester, even if nothing has been broken. Additionally, the canteen and mess are overpriced, and there have been reports of bugs and worms in the food.
  • Faculty: Most of the professors at VEC are lazy and are busy motivating their students to do their Ph.D. work. While some professors may be less passionate about teaching, others may be more engaged with their students and committed to providing quality education.


Lab Assistants: Most of them are rude, and the procedure to use lab equipment is lengthy. While this may be a concern, it's important to remember that lab assistants are responsible for ensuring that lab equipment is used safely and effectively. The procedures in place may be necessary to prevent damage to the equipment or ensure the safety of the students.
