Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 9th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

To make the best choice, I have entailed the pros and cons of both the institutes 

IIT Guwahati Pros

  • A very established and beautiful campus that is on power backup

IIT Guwahati Cons

  • Less academic flexibility in choosing courses
  • Locational disadvantage results in less exposure to expert lectures 
  • Major issues related to connectivity with high airfare
  • Professors are very less motivated in delivering quality lectures due to lack of motivation.

IIT Hyderabad Pros

  • Locational advantage results in better connectivity and excellent exposure to industry and experts
  • More academic flexibility owing to the fractal academics
  • Young and enthusiastic faculty members who have great experience and conduct top-notch research 

IIT Hyderabad Cons

  • The permanent campus is still under construction.
  • Relatively hot climate.

IIT Guwahati should never be your first choice and IIT Hyderabad is a much better option.

Which branch is better to join, CSE at IIT Indore or MNC (mathematics and computing) at IIT Guwahati?

SD
Souvick Das Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Software Engineer at Microsoft

My brother was in a similar dilemma last year when he had to choose between MnC IIT Guwahati and CSE IIT Indore. Eventually, he went for IIT Indore CSE. The main reason he decided against going for the MnC program was his lack of interest in Math. And when we talk about Math at IIT, trust me when I say it’s at another level. It’s purely proof-based and high-level Math that can be handled only by true Math lovers. The academic workload is also high with 60% Math and 40% CS courses.

Now, here are a few points that might convince you to join IIT Indore instead

  • IIT Indore qualified for ACM-ICPC World Finals thrice. This in itself is quite an achievement considering this event's importance.
  • As per HackerRank, IIT Indore is said to have the best coders in the whole country. Additionally, it’s at the 8th position globally for the best coders
  • IIT Indore has an extensive alumni base who completed their Master's from top foreign universities like Stanford, Caltech, University of Columbia. Many talented alumni also increase the credibility of the institute by working at reputed firms like Google and Facebook.
  • This year, the CS department recorded 100% placements with the highest and average packages standing at INR 48.5 LPA and INR 30.32 LPA respectively.

Overall, IIT Indore CSE is a much better choice than MnC IIT Guwahati considering the work of and job opportunities.

Which is better, CSE at Thapar University or CSE at Chandigarh University?

KP
Kirti Patel Posted On : November 29th, 2022
Btech in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (Graduated 2021)

Except for BITS Pilani, CSE at Thapar is far superior to any other university.

Chandigarh University does not offer better placements or opportunities. It's all just public relations to boost the college's image.

Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, on the other hand, is one of India's most prestigious and best engineering institutes. In the NIRF Government of India rankings, Thapar Institute of Engineering And Technology was ranked 23rd. For the last six years, the placement rate has been consistently higher than 90%. A total of 361 recruiters took part, recruiting 1622 students. Students were offered the highest package of INR 40 LPA, while the average package was INR 10.97 LPA.

Thapar University accepts students based on their JEE scores.

What is the average package of the COE branch at Thapar University?

DC
Dhruv Chowdhury Posted On : August 7th, 2023
studied at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (2020)

Thapar University does not release official data for branch-wise placements so I contacted a friend who is currently pursuing a COE course there. 

As per the information he shared, the recent highest package received by a COE student at Thapar University stood at INR 39 lakhs while the average package of COE was in the range of 10-12 lakhs. The placement percentage is usually around 100% although only the most skilled ones receive packages above 10-15 LPA.

The kind of companies and the packages they offer depend on your soft and technical skills. Here, you have to work hard to get offers from the best companies else you will remain unplaced. It’s better to start preparing for the interviews in the 3rd year itself when you have to sit for internships.

Which is better CSE at Walchand college of engineering, Sangli or VIT Pune CSE?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : October 13th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

As opposed to the preconceived notion, not every college in Pune is visited by the best companies. In fact, good companies can go to a great college even if it’s located in the middle of nowhere. That being said, WCE Sani is a better choice than VIT Pune in terms of the opportunities it offers. 

  • Placement: WCE has many big IT giants visiting the campus for placements. 
  • Club Activity: WCE has an active club life with many Technical & Non- Technical clubs. These clubs ensure the holistic development of the students
  • Senior-Junior Interaction: Juniors receive constant guidance from seniors throughout their college life and there is a healthy relationship between them. 
  • Campus: WCE's infrastructure may not be at par with other private colleges but it has a big well-maintained campus spread over 90 acres with full greenery in it.

Hope this helps you!

Which is a better option: IIT Guwahati CSE, IIT BHU CSE, IIT Bombay mech or IIT Kharagpur electrical and electronics communication?

A
Admin Posted On : June 20th, 2024
  • College wise - IIT Bombay > IIT Kharagpur > IIT Guwahati > IIT BHU
  • Branch wise - CSE > ECE ~ Mechanical

However, this is simply a popular trend, and you don't have to follow it. It is best to make a decision based on your individual preferences. 

Doing something that interests you is considerably superior in the long run to doing something you dislike solely for money since, after a few years, money no longer motivates you.

Here are some information to make your decision easier:-

  • The placement scenario for ECE in IIT Kharagpur is good and stands next to the CS department in the table.
  • Though ECE is the largest department when compared with others it still maintains its record well in placements.
  • The NIRF Ranking of IIT Bombay is 3rd, IIT Kharagpur is 6th, IIT Guwahati is 7th and IIT BHU is 15th.
  • The Average placement at IIT Bombay Mechanical is 21.82 LPA with IIT Kanpur ECE is 26.27 LPA, IIT Guwahati CSE is 25 LPA and IIT BHU CSE is 22.7 LPA
  • More than 250 companies visited the IIT Kanpur campus in 2024.

Faculty:Having friends in both of the colleges I can share their views, and according to their personal experience the faculty at IIITM Gwalior is one of the best faculties out there in India. Also, you will get good research facilities in IIITM Gwalior.

Placements: As many of you might find this a major point while choosing colleges, you should know that NIT Durgapur offers placements for CSE branch with an average package of 6.5 lac pa and 29 lac pa being the highest package. On the other hand, there is not much data available on placements at IIITM Gwalior as CSE is a newly introduced branch.

How are the placements for CSD in IIIT Delhi?

AM
Ashwin Mahajan Posted On : October 7th, 2023
studied at Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi (2020)

Placements in IIIT Delhi are dependent on individual profiles and skills. The college can just invite good IT companies but the package they will offer depends on you alone. IIIT Delhi has many big shots coming for placements including Qualcomm, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, MathWorks, Dell, Synopsys, Adobe, IBM, Accenture, Complex Systems Laboratory, etc. Some of these companies may not allow CSE students to sit for placements but that is rare. As long as you fulfill a certain GPA criteria and clear the test you will be interviewed. 

In order to clear the coding tests, one must be proficient in computer programming and have enough knowledge of DBMS, OS, and AMD development be it Android ios web. To add value to your profile, you must do internships, projects, research, and good grades.

The CSE placement percentage for the BTech course this year stood at 97.38%, so you don’t have to worry about placements at all.
