Which is better, IIT Dhanbad or MNNIT Allahabad for an M.Tech in CSE in terms of placement?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : July 15th, 2023

Both IIT Dhanbad and MNNIT Allahabad are at the same level when it comes to MTech placements in CSE. Most companies visiting IIT Dhanbad for placements also visit and offer similar profiles to students of MNNIT Allahabad. However, the kind of roles you receive depends more on individual skills and profiles. 

Nevertheless, IIT Dhanbad has a slight edge over MNNIT Allahabad because of its IIT tag which proves to be beneficial in shaping your career and opening multiple doors for you. As for the placements, 

  • MNIT MTech CSE placements recorded a total of 42-43 students getting placed. The CS placements were third highest after Mechanical and Electronics.
  • IIT Dhanbad only had 5 students in its MTech program last year out of which 2 opted out and the median package was INR 14 LPA

Ultimately make the decision on the basis of your personal inclinations and preferences like location, proximity to home, and brand value.

How is the M.Tech CS program in IIT Kanpur? Do they take the same classes as a B.Tech student?

PT
Pragya Tripathi Posted On : April 20th, 2023
Working at PhonePe (app) (2018–present)

Both MTech and CS classes are conducted by the same professors in IIT Kanpur and even other IITs. The MTech program does not have a different faculty pool thus offering similar opportunities.

At IIT Kanpur, BTech and MTech students are given equal importance in terms of education, facilities, and job opportunities. The classrooms they are taught in, the hostel rooms, the library, and the sports faculty are all similar and no discrimination is done.

The placements too are at par with the BTech placements and similar packages are offered. Some of the most frequent recruiters include Microsoft, Google, SAP Labs, Intel, Qualcomm, Condensation, etc. The packages offered are in the range of INR 30- 44 LPA 35 LPA.

How good is Pondicherry Engineering College for doing M.Tech in Computer science? How good are its placement stats for M.Tech?

AD
Abhishek Dasgupta Posted On : June 22nd, 2021
B.Tech, Mechanical Engineer from Pondicherry Engineering College

If you are considering Engineering colleges from Pondicherry alone then choosing PEC is the best choice. You will receive similar placement opportunities as that of the BTech students at the institute.

Companies like TCS, HCL, Aricent, Sapient, SAP, Subex, and few start-ups visit the campus for placement drives.

There is no difference in packages that are offered to BTech graduates and MTech graduates unless you negotiate on your behalf.

Another crucial thing for MTech at PEC is choosing the right project guide. Your project quality will depend a lot on the guide. It is of utmost importance for postgraduates. So, choose a difficult project and don’t entirely depend on your guide for the work. Do courses on online platforms like Coursera to learn about necessary things.

So, choose PEC, only if you are willing to go the extra mile by yourself.

Average placements at IIIT Bangalore stands at around 24lpa, is it worth leaving top NITs for an Mtech CSE at IIIT Bangalore?

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

IIIT Bangalore is at par with top NITs at least in terms of placement scenario of its MTech CSE course. But the question is, are good placements enough to choose a college? Here are a few factors to consider while choosing between top NITs and IIIT Bangalore.

  • Faculty: IIIT Bangalore has a much more qualified and learned faculty pool than top NITs and offers core CSE education in India. Most professors are Ph.D. holders from foreign universities and are at par with the top 7 IITs. 
  • Labs: IIIT Bangalore has much better labs and resources whereas NITs obsolete equipment and lab facilities.
  • Curriculum: IIIT Bangalore has a CS-tailored class which is updated frequently to meet industry trends while NITs don't. 
  • Brand: IIIT Bangalore has a better brand name mainly because it is known for its master's and doctorate level education in computer science and engineering. 
  • Placements: IIIT Bangalore has an excellent placement scenario owing to its focus on Masters and PhD education. Many top firms that prefer specialized graduates in diverse CSE streams visit the campus for placements.

I feel the primary point of difference between NITs and IIIT Bangalore is that NITs mostly focus on placements at the undergraduate level. IIIT Bangalore's main focus has been providing quality education at the master's and doctorate levels. Still, to answer your question, IIIT Bangalore is better than top NITs in almost all aspects.

IIIT Sonepat: Which one should I choose, NIT Kurukshetra or NIT Bhopal or IIIT Allahabad for an M.Tech in CSE?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : September 2nd, 2023

I will never recommend you to choose NIT Kurukshetra because the administration is very disappointing and the entire system is in dilapidated condition. The CSE branch specifically is losing its charm. The official records claim some very good professors but the reality is most of them aren’t interested in teaching. 

The result is declared after 4 months and the students were given backs by a margin of 1/4 of a mark. The duration of exams is long, giving no time for holidays. The Institute does not encourage any kind of educational tours or summer training. Research work is not promoted in any form. The only reason NIT Kurukshetra is still here is because of the hard work of students who get good packages.

How is it possible that IIIT Bangalore's mTech CSE Average package (27.5LPA) is greater than IIT Guwahati CSE Average package (27.04LPA)?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 3rd, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

The difference in the packages is due to the inflated figures released by the institutes. For instance, Microsoft offers 42 LPA packages but the actual in-hand salary is only 13 LPA. 

Also, IIIT Bangalore has no core job offers whereas, in IIT Guwahati, you can also explore other domains apart from IT like finance, consulting, analysis, data science, etc. It is exactly why Inthunk placements should never be the criteria to judge the credibility of an institute or program. Rather, we should start considering in-hand averages.

Another possible reason for IIIT Bangalore's better placements is the excellent research-focused culture that provides great knowledge and scope.
