Is it possible to do an MTech from VNIT Nagpur only with a stipend?

Sapna Malik updated Posted On : October 30th, 2023

It is not possible to manage your M.Tech solely with your stipend.

Given that you score 6.75 CGPA each semester, you’ll be given Rs. 12,400 per month as stipend. The M.Tech tuition fee can be broken down in the following manner-

  1. Sem 1- Rs. 52,000 (out of which, around Rs. 5000 is refundable)
  2. Sem 2- Rs. 40,100
  3. Sem 3- Rs. 40,100
  4. Sem 4- Rs. 45,100

You’ll have to pay Rs. 1,77,300 for tuition. If you opt for hostel, its total fee will be around Rs. 1,28,000. You’ll be refunded around 20,000 from this amount. So overall, you’ll be spending Rs. 305,300. In 24 months, you’ll earn around Rs. 2,97,600 (if you take only 30 leaves and do regular biometric as suggested by MHRD). 

If you opt for a hostel, the total fee will be much higher than your stipend. Thus, it won’t be possible to manage without extra financial support.

Is VNIT Nagpur underrated? It is never publicized much even though it's one of the top 5 NITs, if so what's the reason behind this?

KM
Kaushal Madnani Posted On : October 30th, 2023
VNIT, Graduated 2019

At present, VNIT Nagpur is not among the top NITs. As per the 2023 NIRF Engineering rankings, it stands at the 41st position. Among the NITs, it currently ranks 8th as per MHRD. 

In the NIRF rankings, you’ll find that the perception score for VNIT is (and has been) very low. Currently, it is 14.88 out of 100. This indicates that the students of this college do not think very highly of it. The obsolete syllabus and unfriendly administration are the prime reasons for student dissatisfaction with VNIT. 

VNIT Nagpur is not an underrated college. In fact, it needs a lot of improvement.

How are the hostel facilities for M.Tech students in VNIT Nagpur?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : November 20th, 2023

As a girl hosteller, I can shed some light on the hostel facilities for M.Tech girls at VNIT Nagpur.

Girl students get a single room from the first year of M.Tech itself. The girls’ hostels are clean, but the rules and regulations are strict. One such rule is the hostel curfew timing which changes each year. It won’t be more than 10pm in any case.

Overall, the hostel facilities are good at VNIT.

How is the placement of the civil engineering and the tech branches at VNIT Nagpur?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : October 30th, 2023

I did my M.Tech Civil from VNIT Nagpur. Thus, I can highlight the placement scenario for my specialization (i.e. Transportation Engineering)-

The companies that recruit from VNIT include- AARVEE Associate, LnT ECC, Spectrum Techno Consultants Pvt Ltd, Nagpur Metro Rail Corporation Limited, Onnyx Electronics, JMC Project Ltd, L and T Infra, WSP/Parsons Brinckerhoff, Bajaj Reinforcement LLP, etc. 

Apart from this, some educational institutes also visit for recruitments. These are- S R Patel College of Engineering, Sandip University and Sandip Foundation, BASE Educational Services Pvt Ltd, Adyant Education Pvt. Ltd, Franchises of Aakash Educational Services Pvt Ltd, Avanti Fellows, A.R.M.I.E.T. Thane, Ballarpur Institute of Technology (BIT), PT Education, and Sharda Group of Institutions.

Around 80% students are placed, both on campus and off campus. This includes those who crack government exams, or are appointed as assistant professors. Some students opt for higher studies, while some obtain a CGPA< 6.75. Both of those aren’t included in these placement stats. 

The placements are decent for M.Tech Civil at VNIT Nagpur. The college workload is quite manageable. This allows students to prepare for and crack government exams.

MD
Mohor Dutta Posted On : November 3rd, 2023
B.Tech from Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology, Nagpur (2019)

The Department of Architecture and Planning is one of the oldest at VNIT Nagpur. Pursuing B.Arch from VNIT has its own pros and cons, some of which have been discussed below-

Pros

  1. The B.Arch faculty consists of excellent as well as decent teachers. 
  2. The course curriculum is made according to industry standards. 
  3. VNIT is a renowned institute, and the Architecture department offers good infrastructure.
  4. The student quality is good for B.Arch.

Cons

  1. Placement opportunities are extremely low for Architecture students. Only a few companies are open for B.Arch students, with no architecture firms in this list. 
  2. The teaching and non-teaching staff is small in number, and the department lacks motivation.
  3. The facilities aren’t top notch, and the controlling body is not very responsive. 

I would recommend you make a decision after considering these pros and cons. Whether VNIT is good for B.Arch or not, totally depends on your personal opinion.

Which college shall I choose between VNIT Nagpur and NSIT Delhi for CSE?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : November 20th, 2023

While VNIT Nagpur carries the NIT tag, NSUT is well-known for its CoE.

NSUT follows the updated CBCS curriculum, in which you can choose to study the subjects of your liking. More so, it scrapped off subjects like Manufacturing Processes and Machine Drawing from the CoE curriculum a few years back. 

The placements for CoE and IT are especially good at NSUT. Companies regularly visit the campus with placement and internship opportunities. Moreover, the location of NSUT offers good internship and training opportunities. 

You should consult some seniors from VNIT as well to get a better understanding of both the options available to you. As far as CoE at NSUT is concerned, it is a good choice in terms of both academics and placements.

Why are laptops not allowed for the 1st year in VNIT Nagpur?

KM
Kaushal Madnani Posted On : October 30th, 2023
VNIT, Graduated 2019

At present, the first year students of VNIT Nagpur are allowed to carry laptops. However, laptops aren’t allowed in the classrooms. 

This has been done to avoid over consumption of social media content by the students, especially at the cost of their lecture time. Social media addiction has become one of the major concerns of our day and age. The authorities understand the need of going online, but the same has to be limited to some extent.

This is the best time for you to make new friends, interact with people, and join extracurricular activities. Even though mobile is an even greater distraction, it is quite impossible to eliminate it from our lives, even for a second. 

Apart from skill enhancement and coding, try to limit your screen time. Make the most of the opportunities in front of you, and make deeper connections with other people.

The authorities are somewhat right in prohibiting the use of laptops in classrooms for first year students.

Do good students go to VNIT Nagpur?

PK
Pallavi Kapoor Posted On : November 3rd, 2023
Information Technology (IT) at VNIT Nagpur (2019)

To get admission into VNIT Nagpur, one has to acquire quite a high rank in JEE Mains. This is especially true for general category candidates. 

In 2023, the B.Tech CS cutoff rank was 6916 (for home state) and 7087 (for other states). (This was the cutoff for open category, gender neutral seats). To be in the top 1% for an entrance exam that sees the world’s largest number of applicants, is a big deal. 

Thus, it is pretty safe to say that only good students make it to VNIT for their engineering studies.
