  • This fee is based if you are not opting to live in IET hostels.
  • The extra expenses will vary among students. 
  • This will include books, stationery and other daily necessities you will require everyday. 
  • So, in total you will have to spend around 15,000 each semester to buy the necessary items.
Fee Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Total
Tuition Fee 7,000,019 70,000 70,000 70,000 7,210,019

Can anyone tell about the Engineering Design branch at IIT-Madras?

TB
Tushar Banerjee Posted On : March 31st, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras

The engineering design department at IIT Madras is the newest department on campus. If you're interested in pursuing design-oriented courses closely related to mechanical engineering, this department is worth considering. The dual degree program in Engineering design has a good scope for campus placements, which are comparable to placements in the mechanical engineering department.

Although there are not many seats available for undergraduates, it's surprising to note that the department closes at lower ranks in JEE than other departments such as Civil engineering and Chemical engineering. The engineering design department also offers better core job packages than the aforementioned departments.

One of the advantages of being a new department is that the engineering design department boasts great infrastructure and classrooms, which are well-maintained compared to other older buildings on campus.

So if you're looking for a new and exciting department with promising career prospects, the engineering design department at IIT Madras might be the perfect fit for you

In terms of placement, faculty and infrastructure which one is better for CSE: Kalyani Government Engineering College or Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College?

JG
Joyita Ghosh Posted On : May 5th, 2021
B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Kalyani Government Engineering College, graduated, 2020

A friend of mine has told me that CSE in Kalyani Government Engineering College is better than that in Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College. It can be owed to the location of both places. Kalyani is an IT hub and it is not far from Kolkata. On the other hand, it will take you twelve hours to reach Jalpaiguri from Kolkata by train. It goes without saying that CSE of Kalyani Government Engineering College is better and obviously more preferred to that of Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College.

The placements in both colleges are pretty much the same. The average package of both colleges is around 3.5 LPA in IT companies. It has to be said that more students get placed from KGEC.

KGEC is the more sought after institute because it attracts the better-ranked students. Most of the students whose ranks are under 3000 are from Kolkata, Hooghly, North 24 and South 24 Parganas regions. The faculty and infrastructure of both institutions are also pretty much similar.

Will I get CSE at NIT Goa if I have a 19k OBC NCL rank?

SP
Shubham Patra Posted On : August 28th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Patna

According to the 2021 cutoff trend, the required cutoff of CSE for OBC category students is 14577 (HS). If you are an out-of-state student then the cutoff is 3779. So, getting admission to the institute will be tough if you are not a resident of Goa. 

The counseling process is done based on the AIR and not the category rank. The category rank is just a measure to rank you in your particular category. If your category is OBC NCL then your category rank would be the position among the other OBC students who had appeared for the examination.

Which is better: IIT Guwahati CSE or IIT BHU CSE?

SD
Sharad Dev Posted On : March 20th, 2023
B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (IITG) (Graduated 2017)

 Instead of recommending any specific institute, there are some myths that need to be debunked first:

  • Placements at one institute are better than the other.
  • BHU has a wider network.
  • IITG has a cooler administration.

You must compare the two courses based on the following features:

  • Academic research
  • Placement statistics
  • Competitive coding
  • Open-source development
  • Other club activities
  • Climate and geography
  • Connectivity (and distance from hometown)

If you're specifically interested in CSE, then the first four points are almost equal for both BHU and Guwahati. When it comes to the other points, IITG has a better climate, while Varanasi may be better connected and nearer to your hometown.

So, it's up to you to weigh the pros and cons and decide which institute suits you better. Remember to make an informed decision and choose wisely.

What should I choose between NIT Surathkal CSE and IIT Kanpur civil chemical

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : April 19th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

I would recommend you choose IIT over NIT any day irrespective of the branch because it is recognized globally. The quality of packages and roles offered are also better and with the right motivation and determination, one can even change his branch to a better one.

At IIT Kanpur, I would advise you to go for Chemical rather than Civil. BTech Chemical Engineering combined with Masters in Petroleum Engineering is the highest paying bracket in the USA with more than 74000 Jobs available for outsiders in the Middle East, US, and Canada at a five yr median of $ 18600.

Additionally, at IIT Kanpur the ocean of electives to choose from enables you to pursue CS course side by side through certifications in 64/128/256 bit SSL Encryption, Data Structures, and Oracle which have great importance. While CS students can be found everywhere, you will find only a few Chemical Engineers.

Concludingly, it’s best to go for IIT Kanpur Chemical for the long term or IIT Kanpur Civil with a branch change to EEE or Mechanical in mind.

What is the prospect of production engineering in NIT Trichy?

HB
Himani Bose Posted On : March 23rd, 2021
B.Tech. Production and Industrial Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu

Many people think that production engineering is mechanical minus thermodynamics. Which is not true. Production engineering is completely different from mechanical as the subjects are different.

My friend is currently in the 4th year of production engineering, NIT Trichy and according to him, it doesn’t really have a good prospect. Here’s why:

  • While other departments have 6 subjects per semester you’ll be having 7. This can get quite hectic for you at times.
  • Despite so much hard work, placements are not good at all. You will never be treated equally to your mechanical friends, however good your profile is.
  • Although you can go into most of the mechanical engineering fields like automobiles, industrial tools making, etc. you will be paid lesser than your mechanical engineer mates.

However, if you are planning for higher studies and research, then production is a very good choice. Being a production engineer opens up the manufacturing, industrial, and mechanical higher study options too. So, if placement after B.Tech. is your focus, please look elsewhere but if you are into higher studies then surely go for it. Choose wisely.

Which should I choose: CSE at BITS, Goa or CSE at NIT, Trichy?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : July 19th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

I hope you are not the kind who evaluates and compares institutes solely based on their placement scenario. Here are a few things to consider while comparing CSE at BITS Goa and CSE at NIT Trichy.

  • Faculty: BITS Goa CS department has a better and more experienced faculty pool in comparison to the NIT Trichy CS department. BITS Goa has a thorough screening while recruiting and most professors are PhD holders from top colleges abroad as well from India.
  • Infrastructure: Both institutes are equally good in this aspect with top-notch infrastructure and facilities.
  • Peer group: The crowd quality is also similar considering that NIT Trichy being the top NIT attracts high-rankers while the no-reservation policy at BITS Pilani ensures only the best minds. 
  • Brand value: BIT Pilani enjoys a better brand value because of its rich legacy and wins in this aspect although NIT itself is not very bad either.
  • Fees: This is where NIT Trichy takes the lead as its BTech one-year fee is only ?1.78 Lakhs (1st Year Fees) while BITS Goa BE first-year fee is ?5.72 Lakhs.
  • Placements: BITS Goa again is the winner here although, with excellent coding skills, you can get a great job in any of the 2 institutes.

So, unless you have any financial constraints, BITS Goa is the best choice for you.
