Which is better for CS: IIIT Delhi or NIT Kurukshetra?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 7th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Although both IIITs and NITs have a similar brand image, I advise you to keep IIIT Delhi as your first preference. Here are two solid reasons why 

  • Better campus placements: Generally, Government colleges like IITs and NITs do not approach companies for placements like private colleges. So their placements are usually a result of their brand value and location. That being said, IIIT Delhi has an excellent location and therefore attracts many more companies than NIT Kurukshetra.
  • A good environment: The CS-tailored dynamic environment at IIIT Delhi helps improve your aptitude considerably. The crowd at both the colleges might be similar but IIIT Delhi definitely provides a much better exposure outside college. 

So the best option for CS is certainly IIIT Delhi.

How's ECE at NIT Kurukshetra?

SR
Sumit Roy Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra

The ECE department at NIT Kurukshetra is average and not at par with NIT standards so go for it only if you are genuinely interested in the branch. Here are some strong reasons why I oppose joining this branch

  • The classroom sessions are boring and only a few exceptional professors are even interested in teaching 
  • The workload is challenging and so is the curriculum. You will have to study really hard to maintain a good CGPA, something that directly affects your placements. It will be even more difficult if you lack interest in the branch.
  • The placement scenario is also nothing you will be looking forward to. Only a handful of companies come for ECE students. The majority of the batch will be placed in IT companies, and for this, you will have to study extra CS subjects. The competition is overwhelming and you will feel drained. 

The detailed placement statistics of the ECE branch at NIT Kurukshetra have been tabulated below:

Eligible Students

So don’t go for ECE unless you are genuinely interested in it or you are committed to hard work for 4 long years.

Should I go for IIIT Allahabad even if I have rank enough to get CS in NIT-K, NIT-W, and NIT-T?

SS
Shruti Sikhawat Posted On : March 24th, 2021
Studied at IIIT Allahabad (2019)

The most practical thing to do here would be to begin with taking a look at the syllabus of both these mentioned programs. You need to be absolutely clear about whether you wish to study for the next 4 years of your life and maybe also be able to develop a career in the same field. Interest and passion are mandatory to be able to sustain in any field of engineering for a very long period of time.

Now as far as my personal opinion goes, since two of my brothers have completed their engineering from IIIT Allahabad, I strongly believe that IIITA is a notch better than the others. Although the syllabus of CSE and IT is more or less the same, the overall academic environment of IIITA is better suited for coding when compared to the other NITs. There are a number of competitive programming websites available online where you will find more students of IIIT A placed at higher ranks than NITs.

There is a process of development, evolvement and growth as a programmer in IIITA for the students. It is known to all that India’s best coder Suryanarayana is also from IIIT A. Another reason why IIITA is a popular option for many aspiring coders is because unlike other colleges, it offers core subjects from the first years itself.

The placement scenario is also far accomplished of IIIT Allahabad.

How is CSE in NIT kurukshetra?

SB
Susmita Bose Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra

Let me clarify the fact that NIT Kurukshetra has the CE or Computer Engineering branch and not CSE. While the former deals with hardware concepts the latter is all about software. The overall branch is decent but not at par with the IT or CSE branches of other institutes. The syllabus is somewhat outdated and so are the labs.

As far as the placements are concerned, the campus is visited by several IT companies like Directi, Amazon, Adobe, CDOT, etc Students often receive PPO and PPI from companies like Flookatt and Microsoft. The placement scenario is similar for IT as well. 

Here are the detailed placement statistics:l

Eligible Students

Range of Package 

INR 6.25 LPA - INR 47.00 LPA

Median CTC

INR 16.65 LPA

Average CTC

INR 19. 81 LPA

One needs to maintain a CGPA of around 8.5+ to secure good packages in CE at NIT Kurukshetra. The institute organizes several fests to ensure extracurricular activities are also conducted. The tech-society TECHNOBYTE organizes a lot of events during fests. Additionally, the GAWDS is a group of web and graphic enthusiasts where you can learn about software development. Frequent workshops for competitive programming are held on campus by the seniors. 

Overall, the CE branch at NT Kurukshetra is good with decent placements, hostel facilities, and crowd.

Which one is better if the money factor is excluded, NIT Kurukshetra Electrical or BITS Goa EEE?

MS
Mayank Sharma Posted On : August 24th, 2021
B.E from BITS Goa (2020)

The faculty members of the EEE department at BITS Goa are not good, except for a few of them. 

According to the professors, the only way to answer the questions is to attend their lectures and not understand the concepts. The average scores and grades are very low. The average of a class usually is C in a test or marks like 15 out of 75.

BITS has a higher brand value than any NIT in India. You can clear your concepts on your own. You can also learn from the knowledgeable professors of the EEE department.

If you maintain a CGPA of 8 or above, especially in the EEE department, you can easily get an internship with the help of a practice school program. These factors also help you if you opt to study further in any part of the world, or if you prefer to do a job.

However, placements at NIT Trichy are better. But, if you have the required skills, you will get good opportunities to land up in a good job position. The average CTC offered to the students is 5 LPA. 

You will easily get into a good institution for higher studies or any good company for a job, even if you do not pay much attention to the lectures at BITSG. All you need to do is, have some good internship experience, be on good terms with few faculties of the EEE department, and get required recommendation letters.

Can a branch be upgraded in NIT Kurukshetra?

SR
Sumit Roy Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra

Yes, NIT Kurukshetra allows branch upgradation if you are unsatisfied with your current branch subject to certain conditions

  • Vacant Seats: The chances of changing your branch depend upon the vacancy of seats since the seat intake is fixed. Each branch has a specific number of seats allocated to it by the institute and that cannot be changed. So there has to be at least one seat vacant in the branch you want to get transferred to. A few students drop out of college or go to better colleges thereby vacating seats.
  • Demand for the branch: The next factor that will be considered is the demand for that branch. The more in-demand the branch is the lesser the chances of getting transferred. For example, IT and CS are highly demanded branches while ECE is least demanded. 
  • CGPA: One of the most important factors, often underestimated, is your CGPA. Your CGPA for the first year decides your eligibility to get a good upgrade. The higher your CGPA is, the higher your chances of branch upgradation.

The factor that is in your control is your CGPA so start working on it!

  2. Courses : MNIT Jaipur offers a wider range of courses and programs compared to NIT Kurukshetra. MNIT Jaipur has diverse departments such as engineering, science, management, and humanities. NIT Kurukshetra, on the other hand, mainly focuses on engineering programs.
  3. Faculty : Both NITs have highly qualified and well-regarded faculties who are experts in their respective fields. However, MNIT Jaipur has a more diverse faculty with a higher number of Ph.D. holders.
  4. Infrastructure : MNIT Jaipur has a more well-developed and well-maintained campus offering a better campus life and facilities. 
  5. Placements : NIT Kurukshetra's highest package stood at INR 1.25 CPA and average package stood at INR 13.89 LPA while MNIT Jaipur's highest package stood at INR 64.00 LPA and average package stood at INR 12.43 LPA.

Which institute is better NIT Delhi or NIT Kurukshetra?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : October 19th, 2023

It is difficult to give an accurate answer as you do not mention your prioritization. Both NIT Delhi and NIT Kurukshetra are the reputed institutes in India. NITs only have qualified faculties and have good infrastructure. Apart from this, you will get greater exposure and abundant opportunities at NIT Delhi than at NIT Kurukshetra

 So the final decision should be made based on the core subject and your preferences.
