MM
Mahak Mahajan Posted On : January 24th, 2023
Studied at Chandigarh University

The placement opportunities at Chandigarh University are excellent. When it comes to CSE, students have been able to secure pay packages as high as Rs 31LPA. Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Hitachi, CTS, Capgemini, Tech Mahindra, and other international brands visit the Chandigarh university campus on a regular basis. One of the most important aspects of a B. Tech in CSE is the opportunity for final-year students to receive on-the-job training, which is a significant benefit for students preparing for careers.

Much new software is provided to the students, and they are taught how to use it, as well as given support so that they can develop their own new software and continue to work with them to improve human life.

What should I choose between Manipal computer science vs BITS Goa electronics and instrumentation (no interest in a particular branch)?

SG
Shruti Gupta Posted On : August 3rd, 2022
Studied at Manipal University

If you aren’t particularly interested in CSE, it will be better to choose BITS Goa Electronics and Instrumentation. You will get excellent placement opportunities and exposure from BITS Goa. During 2021 placements, the highest CTC received by the institute was INR 43.3 LPA. Google, Cisco, CRED, Flipkart, etc. are some of the major recruits that frequent BITS Goa placements.  

If you are planning on pursuing higher education abroad, you will get better exposure from BITS Goa. The BITS brand name is more recognized compared to Manipal.

How tough is it to change your branch from IT to CSE in Heritage Institute of Technology?

AP
Avinash Pathak Posted On : September 22nd, 2021
Studies B.Tech in Information Technology at Heritage Institute of Technology, 2022

Your question can be based on whether or not you are strictly capable of maintaining a YGPA above 8.5 following the first year. 

  • The subjects allotted in the first semester do share most of the things in common, alongside 2 additional courses.
  • Moreover, the subjects allotted in the second semester are equally as difficult as the subjects of the previous semester.
  • For students who particularly did not have a Computer in their +2, then the course area named “Introduction to C” can be trickier to ace since its preparation needs practice.
  • It is crucial to note that a YGPA of 8.5 does not guarantee the chance of switching from IT to CSE.
  • It generally interprets that there are supposed to be more than half the students who would be applying for a branch change, and out of them, the only candidates shortlisted belong from the top 5 to 6.

It is suggested that you maintain a YGPA between 8.75 to more than 9 so as to secure the chance of branch change. You can undeniably ace the same with about 5 weeks of definite effort before the semester exams.

Which is better, CSE at DTU or civil engineering at IIT Roorkee if my inclination is towards CSE?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : April 12th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

If you are sure about your interest in CSE, DTU is the best option for you. However, if you are yet to identify your area of interest then go through the following parameters

  • Placement: DTU has ties with huge CSE companies like Amazon, and Microsoft that offer excellent packages to the students even better than Civil at IIT Roorkee. I know many friends from NSITs and DTU that work in Microsoft today.
  • Research: The CS department is undoubtedly better in terms of research work and opportunities than the Civil.
  • IAS: For IAS, the most preferred branch is Civil. However, if you do for Roorkee, you will have limited options for coaching which can be easily sought at IIT Delhi
  • MBA: Again, because of better coaching institutes, IIT Delhi is better to prepare for CAT.

Once you are sure of your inclination making a decision won’t seem so difficult!

Is IIT Patna CSE is better or mathematics and computing at IIT Guwahati?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : May 4th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

Whether IIT Patna CSE is better or MnC at IIT Guwahati, depends on what you want to do after your graduation. 

If you have an interest in pure and abstract Math and want to do research in Maths, theoretical computer science, Set theory, Group Theory, and Complexity Theory, then the IIT Guwahati MnC program is the best for you.

However, if you have an interest in coding and want to become a competitive programmer, or a software developer, and research in areas other than Theoretical Computer Science, then IIT Patna CSE is the right choice for you. Extensive research on every CS field is done here.

Basically, the academic workload of the MnC program at IIT Guwahati is too much with a very rigid curriculum that will spare you no time to focus on coding. No doubt, the MnC program too has excellent job opportunities in finance, banking, and software jobs. But, the demand for CS students is much more than MnC students and is expected to be increasingly so over the next few years. 

Common courses of CS and MNC include theoretical computer science, some being computer networks, and operating systems while the rest of the courses are related to abstract Maths/pure Math and are highly rigorous in nature. Contrary to popular belief, there aren't many common concepts between MnC and CS. 

IIT Guwahati will give you a slightly better campus life in comparison to IIT Patna considering its scenic campus and high-level fests organized by the institute.

Which college is better for computer science engineering: VIT, Pune or PICT? Which of these colleges promote extra-curricular activities the most?

AG

PICT is the best option for CSE in Pune followed by VIT Pune. The faculty pool of PICT stands apart from other colleges making it the dream college of many. I once visited a technical project exhibition in PICT and fell in love with the innovative environment of the college.

The cutoffs are usually high for PICT and it accepts only the best crowd. So you will get an amazing experience if you choose PICT over VIT.

Is NIT Jamshedpur CSE better than NIT Rourkela CSE?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 4th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

The two primary criteria to evaluate a branch's credibility are academics and job opportunities. 

Academically, NIT Rourkela has a certain advantage over Jamshedpur because it is one of the top NITs. Moreover, the curriculum followed is rigorous and students are expected to maintain a high attendance. The CSE department in particular is very rigid, unlike NIT Jamshedpur which has a laid-back attitude with very lenient professors. It's quite challenging to score high marks at NIT Rourkela CSE especially its Data Structures and Algorithms which is a compulsory course for every branch in the first year. The professors are very passionate and learned so the classroom sessions are quite intuitive. But maintaining a high score may be a problem here so you can go for NIT Jamshedpur.  

Placements: Most software companies don’t visit NIT Rourkela because of its remote location and lack of air connectivity. Here is a comparative analysis of the placement statistics of both NIT Jamshedpur and NIT Rourkela

Particulars

NIT Rourkela Placements 2023

NIT Jamshedpur Placements 2023

Number of Companies Participated

330

250+

Number of Offers

1534

750+

Highest CTC

INR 52.98 LPA

INR 83 LPA

Average CTC

INR 12.95 LPA

INR 15.98 LPA

Top Recruiters

Apple, Google, VISA (2022)

Alstom, Tata Motors, Tata Cummins, KPMG, Adobe etc

Talking about CSE placements specifically, NIT Rourkela's average package for CSE is INR 21.87 LPA while NIT Jamshedpur's CSE average package is INR 26.63 LPA. NIT Jamshedpur seems to be a much better option for CSE as it has better placements and also a flexible academic scenario.

Which branch is better, IIT Kanpur statistics and data science (B.Sc) or IIT Dhanbad CSE?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : October 12th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Both the courses are good. 

However, with the advancement of technologies like AI and ML, and one’s increasing dependency upon them, Data Science has become a field with immense potential. 

Data Science has a lot of future scope, and its demand will only increase with time. This field requires a good understanding of Statistics, Mathematics, and Computer Science (Especially Python Language). 

BSc. in Data Science is an even better option than CSE at present. Moreover, college-wise, IIT Kanpur is way ahead of IIT Dhanbad. 

Therefore I would recommend you choose BSc. Statistics and Data Science at IIT Kanpur over CSE at IIT Dhanbad.

My WBJEE rank is 4503. I want a BTech in CSE. Can I get into Heritage Institute of Technology? What are some other government/private colleges for BTech CSE at this rank?

AR
Abinash Roy Posted On : September 10th, 2021
Studied at PES University

Both the choices are decent so you can choose either. But, as I don't know exactly which branch of DSU are you asking about; but if you are talking about DSU (Kumar swami layout) then go for it; and if not NHCE is better.

  • If you are hard-working go for DSU as placements for CSE and ISE are the same and you should prepare for the campus placements as well. In DSU the average and highest CTC offered is 4 LPA and 15 LPA. 
  • If you are an average student in CSE, then NHCE offers 100% placements for CSE. In recent years the average CTC offered at the institute is 3 LPA. 
  • If you are going to an engineering college in search of a decent job then go for NHCE.

And let me clear that, 100% placements mean there are no specifications of package you will be given. You might get a company to work with a 1 LPA salary or a 12 LPA salary depends on your caliber and knowledge.

Which is better, IGDTUW CSE or NIT Calicut CSE?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : August 21st, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

I have a cousin who is currently working as a senior software engineer at Walmart. He is anex-student of IGDTUW. This alone negates all the claims of people stating IGDTUW is a below-average institute with poor infrastructure and zero placement opportunities. In fact, the first job he landed with campus placements was at Adobe. His juniors got placed in better companies like Google, Facebook, etc which speaks of the improving placement scenario.

Here is a comparative analysis of the placement scenario of these institutes 

Particulars

IGDTUW BTech CSE

NIT Calicut BTech CSE

Batch Strength

156

148

Students Placed

98

148

Highest CTC

INR 55 LPA

67.62 LPA

Average CTC

-

20.54 LPA

Its true that NIT Calicut may have an upper hand in terms of infrastructure, but in the long run, that does not really matter. A college can give you the wings to fly and it's on you how high you rise. Moreover, being a girl, you will have better opportunities in a girl's college like IGDTUW.

Yes, you will have to make small sacrifices like moving away from your home and adjusting to minimal facilities but in the end, it will be worth it!
