Which is the better option - PICT for IT, VIT Pune for IT, or WCE Sangli for CSE?

AC
Abhinav Chowdhury Posted On : October 13th, 2023
Lives in Pune, Maharashtra, India

My friend was in a similar dilemma when he was left with these three options. Based on his experience, PICT is the best option in Pune for computers. The institute provides an environment and resources suitable for working on quality projects. The academic ambiance is excellent and you will get a chance to develop yourself. Students with a good CGOA bag good offers while some open their own startups.

WCE is a decent college with a good campus and faculty pool. The students make it to average companies like TCS Infosys cognizant. It’s the best college in the Kolhapur and Solapur University area. Most students opt for a job rather than pursuing higher studies.

VIT has the added advantage of being in Pune so if you ever face this situation, choose VIT over WCE. The preference order therefore is, PICT>VIT>WCE.

My JEE rank is 600. Should I go for electrical at IIT Kanpur or CS at IIT Roorkee?

A
Admin Posted On : June 25th, 2024

As per the latest stats, you will not be able to get admission in CSE at IIT Roorkee at this rank if you are from the general category. I think that you should choose EE at IIT Kanpur over CSE at IIT Roorkee because of the following reasons:-

  • Taking EE in Kanpur is more advantageous than CSE in Roorkee due to higher placement percentages and more flexible academics, which helps to let you develop yourself more.
  • IIT Kanpur has a better NIRF ranking of 4th compared to IIT Roorkee 5th.
  • As of 2023, the average salary at IIT Kanpur EE branch is 26.27 LPA, while the average salary for IIT Roorkee's CSE branch is 27 LPA, so there is not much difference.
  • More than 250 companies like Microsoft, Fujitsu, Samsung, Reliance, Goldman Sachs, and McKinsey visited IIT Kanpur campus in 2023.
  • Electrical engineering provides you with opportunities in both the public and private sectors.
  • The best aspect is that if you later discover you have no interest in EE, you can always move to Software Engineering.

Which is better academically (preferably CSE and ECE branch), NIT Manipur. NIT Meghalaya, NIT Sikkim, NIT Nagaland or Tezpur University?

DG
Dona Ghosh, Posted On : November 11th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, Tezpur University (2020)

Before choosing an institute, think about what your requirements are. Here are some points that might help you make a decision.

  • If your aim is a job in a corporate sector then the NITs will definitely be better options. Opt for either NIT Meghalaya or Nagaland. 
  • Do not compare their placements with older NITs as it could prove disappointing.
  • Tezpur University (TU) is also known to provide good placement opportunities but it is more concentrated to only the CSE department. 
  • You may get placements from a few IT companies, but overall placements are concerned NITs are definitely better than TU.
  • Students who are interested in learning and exploring research fields can opt for TU as well. 
  • Tezpur University has very good faculty strength in ECE & CSE. 
  • The two departments are much older too. 
  • The CSE faculty and labs of TU are better than NIT Silchar. 
  • TU has got a good research environment as there are multiple departments of Science and Engineering, which is not the case of the mentioned NITs.

Therefore it is suggested that if you aim for an immediate job opportunity, go for NITs. For students who feel confident that they can get a job off campus or are more inclined towards academics and research can go for TU.

Which is better for a B.Tech (computer science), Galgotias University or Amity University and why?

MK
Mohit Kumar Posted On : May 10th, 2021
B.Tech Civil Engineering, Galgotias University (2018)

Galgotias University is definitely a better choice for a BTech degree in CSE. I have friends at both Galgotias and Amity. Based on what I heard about the CSE department at these campuses, it is suggested to choose Galgotias. 

  • Amity is quite costly and the quality of education is not on the same level as Galgotias. If you want a good college life and you can afford the hefty fee, go for Amity. 
  • Galgotias on the other hand stresses a lot on academics. There are many extra-curricular activities on campus that will help you in improving your overall personality. It also offers an exciting campus life. 
  • For CSE, Galgotias has maintained a good placement record over the years. It has tie-ups with many reputed IT companies that work in favor at the time of placements. 

The table below gives a brief insight into the CSE program offered by these institutes. 

Parameters 

Galgotias University

Should I go for chemical engineering at Heritage Institute of Technology or CSE at Techno India, Salt Lake ?

AA
Akansha Agarwal Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied at Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata (2017)

Heritage Institute of Technology (HIT) is a very popular engineering institute and if you are interested in pursuing Chemical engineering then you should definitely take admission in this college. 

  • The competition is much less for chemical engineering students and a lot of facilities are available for them.
  • There are a lot of placement opportunities available for students and they can easily get a job in both core and IT companies. 
  • Many students are getting PSU through GATE and some core companies such as BOC, PCBL, Paharpur Cooling towers, Voith Papers, etc. visit the campus for interviews. 
  • But if you are interested in technology and coding then you should probably choose Techno India as this college provides very good opportunities to CSE students. 
  • The placements available are very good and top companies such as TCS, Infosys, CTS etc visit the college for interviews. 
  • The college provides very good facilities and support to teach you coding and if you are really interested in it, then you will be able to master it with your patience and hard work. 
  • And your coding skills are not determined by your college or branch. 
  • You should be really passionate about it to be successful in this field. 
Categories Chemical Engineering at HIT CSE at Techno India
Course Fee 3.95 lakh 6.32 lakh
Highest CTC 12-15 LPA 15-20 LPA
Average CTC 5-6 LPA 7-8 LPA
Recruiting Companies GlaxoSmithKline, Bengal Chemicals, etc. Wipro, Infosys, Dell, HP, etc.

Is branch change easy if I want CSE at NIT Rourkela?

DJ
Dinesh Johri Posted On : August 17th, 2023
Studying B.Tech from National Institutes of Technology (2024)

NIT Rourkela started branch change facility from academic year 2017-2018. For a branch change, your first year CGPA and seat availability in the desired course will be considered. However, to answer you precisely, it is not easy to get a branch change, that too into CSE. Top scorers at NIT Rourkela are able to achieve this feat. 

The main obstacle is that students acquire a laid back attitude after getting an admission into an NIT or IIT. Even if you work 1/10th as hard as you did during your JEE preparation, you will get a good CGPA and your chances for a branch change will be high. For this, you will have to work hard instead of blaming the faculty, syllabus or hectic schedule.

It is quite difficult to upgrade to CSE at NIT Rourkela. However, if you work really hard and get lucky enough that the department has vacant seats, you might get into CSE after your first year.

What should I choose: IIT Roorkee metallurgy or NIT Warangal/Trichy CSE?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

IIT Roorkee, NIT Trichy, and NIT Warangal are well-established institutes in India. The scope of metallurgy is comparatively lower than that of CSE. IIT Roorkee mainly concentrates on textual learning and does not give the students exposure to practical learning. They are using the practice of mugging up the lessons without having a clear understanding of the topic. The placement is very poor here; the students from the metallurgy department usually end up in data analytics and coding.

So CSE at NIT Warangal and Trichy would be a better choice.

Which one should I prefer: IIIT Bangalore ECE, IIIT Lucknow CSAI or IIIT Gwalior CSE?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : October 10th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

CS and EC are very different branches. You need to decide which branch interests you more.

EC is about electronics and how the different electrical components communicate with one another. It involves a lot of Physics. It only involves a little programming. CS, on the other hand, is all about programming. It mainly uses logic and math. 

If you are interested in programming, CSAI from IIIT Lucknow is the better choice. AI/ML is in huge demand in the industry as most things will be automated in the future. Placements and coding culture are top-notch at all these colleges. Students from IIIT Lucknow and IIIT Bangalore perform well in competitions like ACM ICPC. 

All these colleges are good. You should make your choice based on your field of interest.

Your rank is pretty good and you are likely to get both, IIIT Hyderabad CSE and BITS Pilani. However, had I been in your place, I would have chosen IIIT Hyderabad. There are a number of reasons that support my choice.

  • IIIT Hyderabad conducts rigorous classroom sessions that ensure maximum student involvement. The concepts are not just delivered but taught thoroughly. Students have explained the logic behind everything.
  • The lab sessions are usually taught by TAs who guide you and explain the practical concepts thoroughly. They help you overcome the major and minor problems in coding.
  • Students are given very challenging problems in tutorials that help them improve drastically.
  • The assignments are set excellently by the professors who want to keep the students one step ahead of the classes and prepare them for the exams. The assignments are discussed during tutorials to ensure everyone completes them without any problem.

In all, IIIT Hyderabad gives you a sense of freedom to explore yourself and your surroundings better.
