SP

Studied Mining Engineering at Birsa Institute of Technology, Sindri

It will not be fair to compare BITS Pilani and BIT Sindri. There is no collation between both of the colleges, and BITS Pilani is way ahead in terms of all factors such as Placement, Infrastructure, Educational, Ambience, Labs, etc. despite being a Private college.

BITS Pilani is compared with IITs. On the other hand, BIT Sindri is newly established and comes under Government College in Jharkhand and is guided and run by the state government.

Here are some statistics regarding the institute which may help you differentiate the institutes.

Parameters

BITS Pilani

BIT Sindri

Average CTC

5 LPA

4.5 LPA

Highest CTC

1.40 Cr

10.12 LPA

Major Recruiters

Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Oracle, JP Morgan, etc.

TCS, Byjus, Tata Steel, Deloitte, Schlumberger, Vedanta, Wipro, etc.

So, if you get a chance to opt between two of either, I would advise you to go for BITS Pilani.

Which option is better, CS at BITS Pilani, IIT Dharwad, or civil at IIT D?

TB
Tahir Bansal Posted On : April 15th, 2023
B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Technology Dharwad (2020)

If you are interested in pursuing Computer Science, then according to me, BITS Pilani is a great option for you. However, IIT Dharwad is also a good choice, but BITS Pilani already has a well-established reputation and a large alumni network. The start-up culture at BITS Pilani is growing every year, giving you an opportunity to explore the world of entrepreneurship. Before deciding, you should check out the seniors at both colleges and see where you fit in easily.

On the other hand, if you are interested in Civil Engineering, IIT Dharwad is an excellent option. It is a well-established institute with a good reputation in the field of engineering.

If you haven't figured out your interests yet, then it is suggested that you opt for BITS Pilani in Computer Science. The placement opportunities and the chance to study abroad/startups in CS are higher. It is difficult to study CS subjects on different MOOCs while pursuing Civil Engineering at IIT Dharwad. So, choose your branch and college according to your future plans.

Studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

Electronics and Instrumentation at BITS Pilani and Electronics and Communication at MNNIT Allahabad both are good choices. Also, BITS Pilani and MNNIT are reputed institutes. So, you should choose either of these two options based on your interest.

I have few friends at BITS, s I can give you some idea about their ENI branch.

  • ENI course offered by BITS Pilani is great in terms of academics and pay package. ENI is derived from EEE courses with only 3 - 4 courses being different from EEE.
  • BITS also offers extensive lab facilities for their EEE branch due to CEERI.
  • According to the recent placement highlights, the average and highest CTC offered at BITS is 15.96 LPA and 9.7 LPA. At MNNIT the average and highest CTC are 10 LPA and 49 LPA respectively.

For further information or so you can definitely visit the official sites of both the colleges. You can also visit their Facebook pages, where you will be able to find seniors from these branches who can give you more information regarding the branches.

How good are DTU, BITS , NSIT and IIIT Delhi, as compared to each other in terms of placements and research opportunities?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : August 23rd, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

All the aforementioned institutes, DTU, BITS, NSIT, and IIIT Delhi are excellent colleges that are well-recognized in the tech sector. As a whole the curriculum and placement opportunities for CS offered by these colleges are quite similar. The average package varies slightly but the individual differences compensate for that. Here is a comparative analysis of the placement statistics of these colleges

However, if you look from the angle of research , IIIT Delhi certainly is way ahead than the other colleges. Its research-oriented institute is primarily established to conduct cutting-edge research in the field of CS. While BITS Pilani also has a decent research culture, DTU, and NSUT are nowhere near IIIT Delhi in terms of research. IIIT Delhi students have a lot of projects to work on under highly learned and passionate faculties. The exposure these students receive is unmatched and they are offered excellent opportunities in terms of both in industry and for higher education.

So if you want both excellent placements and research opportunities go for IIIT Delhi but if you want a good campus life too that is less focused on research go for BITS Pilani.
