Is it a good choice to prefer IIT Delhi textile over IIIT Delhi CSE, considering the fact that branch change is quite hard in IITD?

SS
Savi Sharma Posted On : October 4th, 2023

IIT Delhi has a much greater brand value as compared to IIIT Delhi. IIT D is superior in many aspects, one of which is campus life. 

I have many friends in IITD Textile. They bagged foreign internships in the IT sector during their second year.

The coursework for Textile is very manageable. You’ll get ample time to practice coding on your own. Don’t worry about branch change. Even for a career in CS/IT, self-practice will get you through. Also, opt for the open electives offered at IIT Delhi. You’ll ace CS/IT placement tests, and secure a good job.

Thus, I would recommend you choose IIT Delhi Textile over IIIT Delhi CSE.

How is Hindustan University for aerospace engineering?

AM
Anita Mukherjee Posted On : April 8th, 2021
B.Tech in chem. Eng. from Hindustan University (2020)

One of my friends studies at Hindustan University. So, I know a little bit about the institute. 

Hindustan University is recognized as a great platform for Aerospace Engineering. But the institute owes its reputation to the students who go out of their way to excel in academics without much help from the institute.

According to my friend’s experience, the institute does not offer support of any kind, be it lab equipment, leniency in attendance, or time.

  • The institute charges high fines for low attendance.
  • It also has a dress code for the laboratory which is quite uncomfortable. According to authority, it is for the protection of the students. However, there are either computer-related laboratory works or lectures, so there is actually no need for uncomfortable uniforms. 
  • Also, students are not allowed to use most of the equipment in the laboratory. According to authorities, it could be potentially dangerous. 

Overall, at Hindustan University you won’t have many facilities, placement offers, or any kind of support. So, it would be better to opt for other options.

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 19th, 2023

Should I pursue ECE from MSIT or CS from BPIT?

SR
Sukriti Roy Posted On : May 19th, 2021
Studied ECE at MSIT

Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology (MSIT) and Bhagwan Parshuram Institute of Technology (BPIT) both are private engineering colleges in New Delhi affiliated to the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU). There is not much of a difference between them in terms of the syllabus of the branches. 

Here are some of the things that you should know about the two courses. 

Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE): 

  • The prerequisite for doing well in this branch is a strong grasp of mathematics. 
  • Most of the subjects in this branch are logic-based and if your mathematics is good, then you can easily score and get some good grades. 
  • As for placements, core companies almost do not visit any of the two colleges (hardly 1 or 2). However, jobs in the service-based sector are plentiful and you can easily get them on the campus of MSIT with almost no knowledge of ECE.

Computer Science and Engineering (CSE):

  • There is no prerequisite for doing well in CSE at BPIT and you can easily score good grades. 
  • Top companies like Amazon, Commvault also visit the campus along with service-based companies such as TCS, Wipro, etc. 

2021 Placement Statistics:

Parameters 

MSIT

BPIT

Average CTC

4 LPA

Choose a branch according to your strengths and passion. In terms of college, both are almost equal and branches should be the differentiator rather than the college.

How is chemical engineering at IET Lucknow?

AS
Ameesh Kumar Singh Posted On : August 6th, 2021
Studied at the Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow

IET Lucknow is a good option if it's the last option for you. Chemical engineering is not up to the mark. Having friends from IET Lucknow and online reviews here are some tips for you –

  • Labs are in poor condition.
  • The faculty is also just average.
  • Hostel life is great.
  • The connection speed is fast and HBTI is lackluster in terms of internet connectivity.

Statistics –

Particulars IET Lucknow
Total fees INR 3.44 Lakhs
Placement percent 30%
Highest salary INR 7 LPA
Average salary INR 5 LPA
Top recruiter Tata Consultancy Services

What IET Lucknow is good for is that you get a lot of holidays here and one can easily prepare for various competitive exams as all coaching centers are near so in a way it opens career options because of its location. Or you can try internships.

Join here if you are not getting HBTI or any good NIT or IIT.

Should I take chemical at BITS Pilani or take a drop?

SM
Sayantani Mitra Posted On : July 20th, 2021
Studied at University of Mumbai (2019)

One of my friends studied Chemical Engineering at BITS Pilani. According to him, it is a really tough stream. It is suggested not to drop a year instead ensure that you work very hard.

  • Spend over 12 hours self study every single day for a year.
  • You should be able to get under 1000 rank in JEE next year which might be worth taking a year drop.
  • But if you have secured a much higher BITSAT score, and if you think you won't be able to work this hard, then simply take whatever you are getting at Pilani.
  • Try to graduate with a CGPA of 8.5+ and go for an MS/Ph.D. in any area of your interest.

Herewith I'm providing the basic details for BITS Pilani :

PARAMETERS BITS PILANI
Tuition Fees INR 1.78 LPA
Placement Percentage 99%
Average Package INR 17 LPA

If you opt to drop and secure admission in an IIT, you will be getting only one degree after 4 years. Whereas, you can get 2 individual degrees from BITS after 5 years. There is not much of a difference between BITS and IITs. It is certainly better than the new ones. The top 5 or 6 IITs are better than BITS but letting go of one more year might not be a wise decision.
