I am joining IIIT Ranchi (CSE). Is it a good decision?

SJ
Sriti Jha Posted On : November 5th, 2022
Student at IIIT Ranchi

IIIT Ranchi is a sort of independent now, and the institute has developed a fantastic coding culture. From open source to competitive coding, the environment is one of the best in Jharkhand, despite the fact that Jharkhand lacks many top-tier institutes. The institute is very flexible in terms of how education should be delivered. 

You can hone your coding skills and find a good job here. Even during the pandemic, a student received more than a 20 LPA package in campus placement, which will undoubtedly improve over their tenure.

Out of the 103 students who participated in the IIIT Ranchi placements 2021, more than 50 were placed. Furthermore, during the 2021 placement drive, the highest and average packages offered were INR 20 LPA and INR 7.2 LPA, respectively. 34 students from the CSE branch were placed out of the total number of students placed. Leading companies such as Capgemini, Cognizant, Comm Vault Systems, Deloitte, HCL, Infosys, and TCS were among the top recruiters of IIIT Ranchi in 2021.

Now that the problems have been resolved, the hostels are reassuring. There are well-furnished flats, better than those found in any government institute. So, if you're willing to join us here, you will not be disappointed.

After dropping 2 years I got an admission in NIT Jamshedpur in the CSE branch. Will it affect the placements?

KC
Kasturi Chatterjee Posted On : April 20th, 2021
Studied CSE at NIT Jamshedpur (2019)

When it comes down to whether or not a decision affects your placement, it, first of all, depends on how you have prepared and put effort into your studies. If you have not put much effort into your studies and have rather studied in an unresponsive and impassive manner, then a bulk of companies actually rejecting you is more obvious.

If you want to pursue your goal and more often than not, have prepared to not let any individual material affect you, then these are ways you can aim with:

  1. Aim for your Academia: You should have a checklist of several professors from various other universities who can lend a hand in providing you research-oriented topics to further work on during your summer breaks. This is one way by which you can aim at greater selection, only if you stand out in the project.
  2. Aim for a Lucrative Job: You should always aim to participate in different algorithmic contests and contribute to your open source. It will help build a reputation and can gain you exposure in the industrial side. It also will help see the capability to sit through various contests or examinations and stand out with solving numerous demanding questions. This is another way recruiters will find you as a great asset to their company.

Other than that, you can always go up for management and courses other than the one stated above. It however depends completely on you.

What is fee structure of CSE branch in UEM Kolkata?

PG
Pranav Ganguly Posted On : May 26th, 2021
Studied Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science at University of Engineering and Management, Kolk

The overall fee structure in UEM Kolkata keeps changing. But, there are no major modifications to it over the last few years. 

  • For the 2016-20 batches, the fee per semester was Rs. 60,000. Therefore, the total fee would be Rs. 1.2 Lakhs annual fees.
  • During admission, you will need to pay an additional admission fee of Rs. 12,000. So, the first-semester fee is Rs. 72,000 combined together, which the students need to pay before their admission to the institute.
  • There is an examination fee of Rs. 1000, which needs to be paid before semester exams. For the first semester, the exam fee is Rs. 1400.
  • UEM organizes several technical and professional workshops, and almost all of them are paid. The fee for such workshops varies from Rs. 500-1500, depending on the type and duration of the workshop. But, these are entirely optional. The management will not force you to participate. 
  • Previously, the 2015-19 batches had a semester fee of Rs. 37,000, and so Rs. 74,000 annually. All other fees, i.e.-exam fees, workshop fees, etc, were the same for those batches too.

For more classified details regarding the present fee structure, you can contact the IEM/UEM group via phone calls. The numbers are available on their website.

Should I choose NSIT COE or IIT Delhi Civil?

A
Admin Posted On : July 9th, 2024

I am a Civil Engineering student at IIT Delhi. 

Even though CoE/ CSE/ IT are much more sought after by students in the present times, I would choose Civil at IIT Delhi over CoE at NSUT. 

Here are the reasons for the same:

  • The faculty at IIT Delhi is much more experienced and learned than that at NSUT.
  • IIT Delhi was established in 1961, while NSUT in 1983. Because of this, IIT Delhi has a stronger alumni network.
  • IIT Delhi is a globally recognized brand, while NSUT is usually only known to students of North India. The “IIT” brand is immensely helpful when applying to foreign universities for higher studies. 
  • Although civil freshers are rarely in demand, a civil engineer with enough work experience, the right set of skills, and great project accomplishments is paid a high salary.

These are the 2023 placement figures for both these institutions:

Particulars

IIT DELHI 

NSUT 

Median CTC

-

 

INR 17 LPA (B.Tech)

Average CTC

INR 17.60 LPA (Overall)

 

-

% Batch placed

84.94% (Overall)

 

(Students Placed in B.Tech: 977)

Top Recruiters

 

Google, Deloitte, BCG, HCL Technologies, Lenskart, Flipkart, etc. 

 

(2024)

Unfortunately, the branch-wise placement detail is not available for both these institutes.   

However, based on the various reasons listed above, I would recommend you choose IIT Delhi Civil Engineering over NSUT CoE.

How is cse in MANIT Bhopal?

PS
Parveen Sindhu Posted On : November 24th, 2023
Studied at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal

Some of my colleagues have completed their B.Tech CSE from MANIT Bhopal. 

Here are the key points based on their experience-

  1. MANIT CSE has the same placement records as CSE at top NITs and IITs. Try to make the most out of the opportunities provided to you.
  2. The seniors at the CSE department are very helpful.
  3. An important tip for you is to not indulge in any kind of quarrel with the locals. They do not allow the MANIT students to roam around or perform any kind of mischief outside of the college campus.
  4. The campus is quite huge, and cycling is the best way to move back and forth between the hostel and the classrooms.
  5. The CSE professors impart useful knowledge, so attend their classes regularly .
  6. In order to ace the placements, start competitive programming from semester 2 itself. 

Make the most of your stay at MANIT Bhopal and study hard from the first year itself. If you do this, you’ll find CSE at MANIT to be quite good.

Which is better, a CSE at VIIT Pune or an ENTC at VIT Pune, considering the future of the branch and the college?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : October 13th, 2023

My friend is currently in his final year of CSE in VIT and is also working at IBM, Pune for my semester-long internship. VIT and VIIT have a common Training and Placement Officer who oversees the placements of both colleges. In my opinion, VIT CSE is way better than EnTC in terms of placements. My friends in EnTc who score better than my friend in VIIT CSE are still struggling for decent jobs. VIIT CSE students get offers from companies that visit the campus almost every week. Although VIT allows EnTC students to appear for software jobs, most software companies prefer taking CSE students mainly because they have studied the relevant subjects for 4 years.

Moreover, VIT is autonomous. I would recommend you choose CSE even if the colleges are similar because the CSE curriculum and syllabus will guarantee your entry into the Software or IT industry. Another added advantage is that VIT has a system of compulsory semester-long internships in either of the semesters of the 4th year. Students receive internship offers from big companies that likely get converted into placement offers for CSE. This may not be the case for any other college in the entire Pune. 

My friends in EnTC are now struggling to pursue higher studies or jobs in the Software industry. So go for VIT without any second thoughts.

Which is better, IIT Delhi (chemical) or BITS Pilani (CSE)?

A
Admin Posted On : July 9th, 2024

I am a B.Tech Chemical Engineering student at IIT Delhi. According to me, these are the main factors you should consider while making up your mind:

  • Demand: CSE is more in-demand than chemical engineering.
  • Brand: The “IIT” tag holds more brand value than the “BITS” tag. The “IIT” tag will be more advantageous if you want to apply to foreign universities for higher education later on.
  • Fees: IIT Delhi is an affordable choice, whereas, BITS Pilani has high fees for its engineering programs. Additionally, IIT Delhi has better placements, which places it at a better position in terms of ROI.

Here is a comparison between IIT Delhi Chemical and BITS Pilani CSE:

Parameters

IIT Delhi Chemical

BITS Pilani CSE

Course Fee

INR 99,650 (for sem-1)*

INR 3.32 lakh (for sem-1)

Highest Package (2023: Overall)

INR 2.5 CPA 

INR 60. 75 LPA

Average Package (2023: Overall)

INR 17.60 LPA

INR 30.37 LPA

CTC Range (for 2023)

-

(IT branches) INR 11 - 38 LPA

Campus Recruiters

Microsoft, CISCO, Accenture, Brain & company, Jaguar Land Rover India Limited

EY, HSBC,KPMC, HCL,IBM, TCS

*This is the fee-structure for General/OBC students with family income>5 LPA. 

 

Even though CSE is a highly sought after branch in the current market, I would suggest you opt for Chemical Engineering at IIT Delhi. IIT Delhi will offer a better ROI, and its brand name will be of immense benefit if you wish to pursue higher studies in India and abroad after graduation.

 

You can do some research on the career and research opportunities after Chemical Engineering, and see if this branch aligns with your future goals.

What board percentage is required to get CSE at Thapar University through Mode-2 counselling?

SS
Shubham Sharma Posted On : August 10th, 2021
Studied at Delhi University (2019)

One of my friends graduated from Thapar University and here’s what I got to know from him. Firstly let me answer your question.

  • At Thapar University, you need only your PCM marks of 12th boards to get admission through mode-2 if you have a good percentage in the board examinations.
  • However, less than 93% in PCM is difficult for you. 
  • You should have at least 92 to 93% in PCM (12th boards) to apply for the same.
  • Since CSE is the most preferred branch at Thapar University the cutoffs are high. 
  • I would suggest you attend all rounds then only you will get an idea of where you stand in the list.

You may get CSE through mode-2 counseling however the chances are moderate. So, try all the modes and in-person counseling.
