How is the computer science branch in NIT Calicut?

RG
Rishita Gupta Posted On : August 21st, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (IITB) (2019)

It is good overall, but nothing beats the computer science department at any of the old IITs. Still, if you are not getting any of the main branches in IITs, you should go for it.

Alternatively, if you are really passionate about CS and you are not getting it in any IIT (which, I believe, is pretty obvious from your question), you should consider taking an NIT.

  • NIT Calicut is regarded as one of the best NITs, with a strong CS department.
  • You will have no problems with placements because they are quite good over there.
  • You can speak with any alumni or a current student over there, they are extremely cooperative.

Some important information regarding CSE at NIT Calicut are :

Total course fee 5.42 lakh
Placement rate 75%
Average salary package 8 lakhs
Highest salary package 36 lakhs

Many of my friends studied at NIT Calicut. According to them it is really good. If you do not get into IITs then NIT Calicut is the best option available for you.

I got CSE in VIT Vellore and will get mechanical engineering in NIT Calicut. Which one should I choose?

SR
Suchit Raghuwanshi Posted On : August 27th, 2021
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2024)

NIT Calicut stands among the top NITs where you will get a lot of exposure to extracurricular activities. As it’s a government college, the fees will be relatively low as compared to private universities like VIT Vellore. 

On the other hand, VIT Vellore isn’t that great institute plus being a private institute the fees is quite high for most middle-class students. If you choose Mechanical here then you can go for two different paths. 

  • The first path is to go for mechanical core, in which you will get ample research opportunities every now and then. However, the placement scenario will not be that great and you might get some PSUs as campus recruiters for mechanical jobs.
  • The second path is to go for IT Jobs regardless of your mechanical branch. 
  • For this, you need to start doing regular coding and relevant skills to compete during the placement rounds.
  • Most of the students are placed by mass recruiters, Although many reputed companies hire but very few students get placed by them.
Categories Mechanical at NIT Calicut CSE at VIT Vellore
Course Fee 5.48 lakhs 7.83 lakhs
Highest CTC 20 LPA 20 LPA
Average CTC 9 LPA 6-8 LPA
Recruiting Companies L&T, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Tata Motors, etc. Flipkart, Oracle, HP, Dell, etc.

At last, it all depends on your interest and caliber to do well on various career paths. However, if you are inclined towards CSE only then VIT is quite a good option because placements are pretty good there for CSE. Some of the major recruiters include PayPal, Microsoft, Amazon, Morgan Stanley, etc.

Which is better for CSE, BITS Pilani or ISM Dhanbad?

MB
Mina Bawa Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Dhanbad (2020)

ISM is good because its tag helps in getting better opportunities in the future. If you're average at coding, even then do not worry because at ISM you will anyway get good packages. Being a government college, the syllabus at ISM Dhanbad is better.

ISM has a placement rate of 100% for CSE in IIT Dhanbad. If you're planning to study abroad then the IIT degree will matter greatly for admission to any foreign University.

As for BITS Pilani, surely it ranks among the top educational institutes in India for engineering. It is on par with the top IITs and the placement rate is 100% like at ISM Dhanbad.

The campus keeps getting renovated and holds a photographic charm with state-of-the-art facilities. The crowd is amazing as well. You can decide based on your location, future goals, preferred weather if you will- because both institutes are at par with each other.

Which is better NIT Trichy ECE or NIT Calicut CSE?

AR
Arnav Roy Posted On : July 24th, 2023
Lives in Kolkata, West Bengal, India

NIT Trichy is always considered superior to its counterparts and rightly so. The institute has a record of excellent placements, a competitive environment, and a highly learned faculty pool. NIT Calicut is well-known for its exceptionally good CSE department. 

So, I think the decision of choosing between  NIT Trichy ECE and NIT Calicut depends more on personal preferences than the institute. However you would like to consider the following points before making the final decision,

  • ECE is a bit more challenging than CSE in terms of the curriculum and the opportunities offered. However, hard work and assistance from faculty can help you. CSE on the other hand is an evergreen branch that has a record of providing hefty packages and great opportunities in general.
  • NIT Trichy has a difficult campus life owing to its extremely hot climate and remote location. NIT Silchar has a pleasant climate with a beautiful lush green campus. 

If you look at the overall picture, both colleges have excellent departments and offer similar opportunities, so the major determining criteria should be your branch preference. If you are interested in electronic systems and communication, go for NIT Trichy ECE but if you have an interest in programming NIT Calicut CSE is better for you.

How is nit calicut regarding placements in cse?

MS
Manjul Shah Posted On : March 24th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2019)

The placement cell of NIT Calicut is good and is equal to other IITs. The non-Indian companies offer more than 28 LPA to freshers unlike the Indian companies. So there always remains a misunderstanding among candidates about the salary package offered. They used to think most of the companies offer a 40 LPA salary package, but these only include the companies in the US. Even Google India, Codenation, Directi offer not more than 24 LPA to the students. Based on these salary packages offered we can see that placements at NIT Calicut are really good.

In the following table, you will get the basic placement details of NIT Calicut.

Category

NIT Calicut 

Fees

INR 5.42 Lakhs 

Duration

4 Years 

Recruiters 

Google, Tata Consultancy Services, Amazon, Infosys, IBM, Oracle, Intel Corporation, Qualcomm, L&T, Microsoft, Cisco, Cognizant, Wipro, Accenture

Highest Package 

INR 49.75 LPA

Average Package 

INR 11.58 LPA

NIT Calicut was consistent with a 99% placement record, offering students an average salary package of 8.5 LPA which gradually increased to 9-12 LPA. Most of the domestic companies do not pay a higher package than INR 28 LPA to freshers. Even MNCs located in India offer packages lower than INR 40 LPA. However, the placement cell of NIT Calicut is good. Almost all students got a placement through a college campus. So, don't just go by the statistics, also talk to ex-students of that college and you will get to know the original salary packages offered to them.

Therefore, you can join the CSE department of NIT Calicut as it has a good placement record.
