What is better: EEE at BITS Hyderabad or CS at VIT Vellore?
As a former EEE student at BITS Goa, I would not recommend taking up EEE at BITS Hyderabad if you want a career in the field of software engineering.
Here are the reasons why-
- The coding involved in EEE is not enough. You’ll code in MATLAB, which is rarely used in the IT sector. You’ll have to devote extra time to learning Python, Java, and other languages.
- CS involves much more than coding, all of which you’ll miss out on.
- Elective courses like OS, DSA, Comp Arch have very limited seats, and not everyone gets to pick them. Also, you’ll get these courses by your third or fourth year. By then you’ll either be under too much pressure to complete your main syllabus or it’ll be too late because the placement season will have begun.
- Top IT companies don’t open for non CS candidates, and even for the companies that do, you’ll have to compete with CS students.
- BITS will give you all the necessary exposure, quality education and opportunities. However, as a non IT student you’ll still find difficulty in getting an IT job via campus placements.
Based on all these points, I would recommend choosing CSE at VIT for better job prospects in the IT sector.
Which is a better choice at NIT Silchar, Mechanical or CSE?
Most students, freshly out of school, try to choose an Engineering branch for themselves. You might be someone who has a deep passion for either Mechanical or CSE. In that case, I would advise you to follow your heart.
But if you think not opting for CSE is a bad decision, just ask yourself why you would consider CSE. Is it because you did some coding in your school days and wish to enter into that field, or simply because CSE is popular. Don’t be in the illusion of liking a branch just because everyone is recommending it. Also, don’t go for any branch solely because it has better placements than the other. As long as you enjoy a particular field, you will get good offers.
Mechanical is a good branch at NIT Silchar. Moreover, as research has become increasingly interdisciplinary in nature, various departments collaborate with one another these days. Even Mechanical has a good involvement of CSE- Robotics, CFD, etc. all involve high level coding and the knowledge of Data Structures. Because today most campuses witness IT placements more than core profiles, I would highly recommend you consult the alumni of Mechanical to figure out what placements are like in ground reality.
These are the 2022 placement stats for both the branches at NIT Silchar-
Also, NIT Silchar offers a branch change after the 2nd semester. This is based on your performance in the first two semesters. In case you feel dissatisfied with your choice, you can opt for branch change as well.
For your first year (whichever branch you choose) maintain good grades, talk to your seniors and explore your stream.
How is computer science engineering in Amity University, Gwalior and what companies come for campus placements?
Amity University Gwalior offers an excellent Computer Science and Engineering program. The environment on campus is competitive and provides the motivation to enhance one’s skills and technical knowledge.
Amity Gwalior placements are good for CSE. Hitachi, MAQ Software, Mphasis, ISC Software, etc. are some of the major recruiters that take part in the placement drive. The average CTC offered for CSE is around INR 6 LPA. While the highest CTC offered is INR 26 LPA.
How is BIT MESRA CSE? Please tell ground reality- clubs, coding culture, past achiever, placements MEDIAN salary. Should I take it or drop?
Regarding your question on whether or not to choose BIT Mesra for your CSE, I would say that the CSE course at BIT Mesra is quite good. Here are a few colleges for CSE that are superior to BIT Mesra according to me- NIT Trichy, NIT Warangal, NIT Surathkal, NIT Calicut, NIT Rourkela, NIT Allahabad, and MNIT Jaipur.
As far as placements are concerned, they are top notch for the CSE branch at BIT Mesra. During the 2022 placements, 113 out of 124 eligible students were placed. The lowest package stood at INR 4 LPA, the average package at INR 19.27 LPA and the highest package at INR 58.33 LPA. The median package was recorded at INR 16 LPA. The companies that visited the BIT Mesra campus for CSE placements were- Micorosoft, Wells Fargo, Walmart, GS, Paytm, Vmware, KPMG, Oracle, MMT, Atlassian, Lowe’s, Whitehat Jr., JF, among others. Media.net, Amazon, Disney, Indeed, Google, American Express, etc. visited the campus after September.
For the IT branch at BIT Mesra, the companies that offered placements were- Amazon, Microsoft, Mindtickle, JF, GS, Paytm, DE Shaw, Whitehat Jr., Walmart, Atlassian, SWYM, Oracle, KPMG, Vmware, etc. In IT, 56 out of 59 eligible students were placed. The average salary stood at INR 20.58 LPA. The highest, median and lowest package was the same as that for CSE.
Basically, if you do not get a top NIT for your CSE, you should choose BIT Mesra. It has good placements for this course.
Which is better: a CSE at new IITs like Patna, Indore or a CSE at DTU?
My friend was in a similar dilemma last year and chose DTU over IIT Patna. She considers new IITs overhyped and not at par with the IIT standards. Running after the IIT tag is not logical and you should look at the bigger picture. Anaise your career prospects and see if other options fit your prospects or not.
DTU is a great option for CSE considering the excellent exposure and opportunities you will get in Delhi, the capital. The salary packages, the companies, and the profiles offered at DTU are similar to the new IITs if not better.
To make things simpler, here are a few pros and cons of going for a new IIT instead of DTU
Pros:
- The most coveted IIT tag name, helps you get admission to foreign universities and also helps you in off-campus job hunt.
- IITs have better research opportunities
- The academic structure and pedagogy are world-class at IITs
Cons:
- Being in Delhi will groom your overall personality in addition to excellent professional opportunities and exposure.
- The new IITs fail to give a vibrant and dynamic college life and are still struggling with infrastructure and basics. DTU, being old, has a vibrant culture with all sorts of fests, cultural and tech activities.
- Delhi is the hub of coaching institutes for higher education.
- DTU has a better brand name established by its successful alumni spread across the globe.
Ultimately it’s your choice whether you want a better campus life or the IIT tag.
What is the average package for CSE at NIT Agartala?
NIT Agartala does not release official statements of branch-wise statistics so it's difficult to produce data on the same. However, I asked a few friends regarding the CSE placements at NIT Agartala. Based on what I heard from them, the placements are decent. Almost 100% of students were placed in 2022 and the average package is INR 13–14 LPA. The highest package was recorded at around INR 53 LPA while the lowest package was INR 8.5 LPA.
Many top companies visit the campus for recruitment and the institute has an active training and placement cell that offers assistance to the students in securing internships and placements.
Hope this helps you!
Which is better: IT at NITK or CSE at NITC?
NIT Surathkal IT is far superior to NIT Calicut. It is well-known in India for its CSE/IT branches. It is a highly regarded engineering college in India, and after four years of B.Tech college, the specific branch does not matter.
NITK outperforms Calicut in terms of reputation and placements. Furthermore, because of the higher cutoffs, the quality of students may be slightly higher here.
IT at NITK is nearly equivalent to CSE here. During placements, nearly all companies open to CS are open for IT as well.
| Categories | IT at NITK | CSE at NITC |
| Course fee | 5.40 lakhs | 5.42 lakhs |
| Placement rate | 92% | 85% |
| Average salary package | 8 LPA | 8.1 LPA |
| Highest salary package | 35 LPA | 36 LPA |
The subjects taught and the syllabus in both departments are also similar. In fact, the IT department may be slightly better than the CS department in terms of facilities and infrastructure, as it is newer. Previously, the quality of students in CS was higher than in IT, but with significant increases in IT cutoffs, both are now equally good.

How is the Mathematics and Computing in IIT Guwahati?
For a genuine math lover, Mathematics and Computing program at IIT Guwahati is a literal treat. You need to be proficient in Math to take up this course. The syllabus includes core math concepts combined with knowledge of CS as well. Towards the end, the math is confined to statistics and finance. The syllabus is not very flexible initially but becomes so in the last two semesters.
Here are a few pros and cons pertaining to the course
Pros:
- The MnC branch boasts excellent placements second only to the CS department. The placement percentage stood at 91.94%. Out of the total 62 students that opted for placements, 57 were able to secure decent jobs. However, finance firms and banks are yet to realize the true potential of this department. One can get an INR 20 LPA by doing a decent internship and maintaining a good CGPA.
- Excellent Master's opportunities are even better than CS students. This is the best option for those planning to get a master's abroad. To upgrade your CV, you can do internships and choose electives accordingly. All this will increase your chances of admission to CSE, data science, finance, and mathematics.
- Job opportunities: This program has excellent opportunities in terms of jobs as well as research and many fields are open to hire students of this course.
Cons
- The rigidity of the syllabus makes it the jack of all trades master of none. You cannot choose the elective according to your interest during the initial years. Many useless courses add to the overall workload with no increase in knowledge.
- Those who aren’t into finance may find it difficult to cope with it as it’s impossible to drop finance courses during the initial years.
In the near future when the IT industry will be at its peak, MnC might be better than CSE in terms of monetary benefits. If you aren’t certain about your area of interest, then Maths and Computing are definitely better than all core branches except CS.
