Is CGC (CEC) Landran good for a Btech?

KS
Kritika Sharma Posted On : April 21st, 2021
Studied at Chandigarh Engineering College

It is a good college but the student should opt for it only when they are not getting into NIT and IIT. It is more reliable than most of the private colleges or universities as several companies are visiting every year and the placement rate of students is very good here. 

Below given are some facts about CGC (CEC) Landran:

  • CGC Landran is good for placement only. 
  • The college doesn't provide any practical or technical knowledge. 
  • Faculties are good but the majority of the teachers only give assignments and yells at students for attendance and not submitting the assignment.
  • One of the most important things that students need to be concerned about is to develop skills. Always try to be a skillful person and try to utilize as many resources as possible. Even a very good college scorer can't able to get placed in good companies because they lack appropriate skills.

The table shows a brief overview of the institution.

Average Salary

Rs. 4.32 lakhs

Highest Salary

Rs. 26.97 lakhs

Fees

Rs. 3.09 lakhs

Overall, streams also matter if you are planning to take admission in CSE then it is the best otherwise you go for different options.

BITS Pilani offers better campus life and overall growth opportunities. Both the institutions offer equally good research facilities. The total course fee for CSE at NIT Surathkal is INR 5,73,820 while at BITS Pilani, it is INR 21,15,600.

During the 2022 placement season, the CSE branch at NIT Surathkal recorded the highest package of INR 45 LPA. The data for 2023 placements isn’t available as of yet.

Which is better, IIT Roorkee CS or IIT Delhi mathematics and computing (4 years)?

SG
Sushmita Gupta Posted On : April 3rd, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

Both programs are equally good in their respective fields and so are the institutions offering the programs. It’s important to consider what you expect from the program and what you plan to achieve after graduation to make the right choice.

My sister was in a similar dilemma as yours and eventually, she opted for MCA from IIT Delhi.This program has many courses similar to CS but the only problem is, the pedagogy adopted has a more theoretical approach than practical. Moreover, at some point, you will start questioning the parity of the faculty and will have to resort to self-study.

But here is the bright side, most companies coming for CS placements consider MCA students too, and offer decent roles.

Although I am not well aware of the situation in Roorkee, I can guarantee a true coding lover will prefer CS to MCA any day.

Which institute should I take for the CS branch, Jaypee, Noida, or NIT Goa?

JC
Jiya Chadda Posted On : August 25th, 2021
Studies CSE at NIT Warangal, 2023

It depends upon what you think you will pursue as a career. Generally, there are transparent ways into monitoring whether or not an institute is really worthy, at least when considering the CSE department. 

  • If you are more inclined towards pursuing a career as a computer programmer, then here are some websites you should definitely check out: CodeChef, HackerRank and CodeForces.
  • These competitions apparently gauge the programming skills a person generally comes with, and whether or not they will be successful in relevant aspects. 
  • These websites come with a neat leaderboard, including the ranks of coders assessed accordingly in terms of their programming skills. 
  • The major upside of these sites is that the leaderboard arrives with the name of the institute these coders belong from. 
  • This naturally helps to evaluate how reasonable an institute is. 
  • You can moreover filter the leaderboards in accordance to the institute you prefer. 
Categories CSE at Jaypee Noida CSE at NIT Goa
Course Fee 9.22 lakh 5.38 akh
Highest CTC 20 LPA 14 LPA
Average CTC 10 LPA 7 PA
Recruiting Companies Adobe, Accenture, Cognizant, KPMG, etc. Capgemini, Oracle, Wipro, IBM, etc.

Therefore, these features go on to provide more compact comparisons among institutes and can possibly help you decide which institute is worthy. However, it is best to also research more about the prospects each institute shares; and how they are in terms of placement, faculty, etc.

Should I Join Thapar University (CSE) or take a drop to study CSE (B Tech) at IIT or BITS Pilani ?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : June 27th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

My brother completed his CSE at Thapar University. He was also planning to take a drop initially. But after doing a lot of research and consulting others, he decided to go to Thapar University. It is a prestigious and well-reputed institution.

My brother felt he couldn’t handle the pressure of entrances and preparation any longer. Besides, the placements at Thapar University are at par with other top institutions like PEC and ISM Dhanbad. Even the education system and reputation of Thapar University are good. 

According to my brother, if you have the courage and determination, you can take a drop and try for the IITs or BITS Pilani. But as far as Thapar University is concerned, it has a good infrastructure, good facilities, and amazing seniors. It is better than most NITs (barring a few) and also has a strong alumni network. Therefore, you won’t regret joining Thapar University for your CSE.

I got 362 marks in BITSAT. Which is better, BITS, Pilani electrical or BITS, Goa CS?

AS
Arnav Singh Posted On : August 5th, 2021
Studied Integrated M.Sc Physics & Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science at BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa

Well, assuming that your 1st preference is CS at Pilani. EEE at Pilani is arguably one of the most difficult branches out there. Based on the conversations I had with my friends from both the BITS campus, here is what I can tell you about the courses.

  • You generally have to compete with the top students on the Campus. Also, the EEE course material is not everyone's cup of tea.
  • The EEE placements are quite good, though not for everyone. There are more high pointers in EEE than in any other branch. Thus good companies prefer to hire from among those.
  • Placements might be better for CS at Goa, though in some other respects you might sell yourself short with this choice.
Parameters&n BITS Goa BITS Pilani
Tuition Fee 3.99 lakhs 4.45 lakhs
Placement Average 94% 95%
Average CTC INR 5 LPA INR 18.05 LPA
Highest CTC INR 1.40 Cr INR 45 LPA

So, if you want an easy life, better go for CS in Goa. Otherwise, choose EEE at Pilani.
