Currently, they are studying in the Sonepat Campus of IIT Delhi, which is great as you get an opportunity to be in the nation's most prestigious college.

On this campus, there are currently 2 branches, namely CS and IT. In each branch, there are 60 students each.

The main reasons to go for IIIT Sonepat are as follows.

Hostel: The campus is not that big but as it is newly constructed, it has the latest facilities. The hostel rooms are decent. The full hostel building is under a centralized AC/Heater. Rooms are double sharing. Each room has a refrigerator, a LED TV. The hostel and campus are well-maintained. The mess is also well maintained and it is made sure that food is cooked in a hygienic environment.

How is the Mathematics and Computing in IIT Guwahati?

RD
Rithi Dasgupta Posted On : May 3rd, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Guwahati (IIITG)

For a genuine math lover, Mathematics and Computing program at IIT Guwahati is a literal treat. You need to be proficient in Math to take up this course. The syllabus includes core math concepts combined with knowledge of CS as well. Towards the end, the math is confined to statistics and finance. The syllabus is not very flexible initially but becomes so in the last two semesters.

Here are a few pros and cons pertaining to the course

Pros:

  • The MnC branch boasts excellent placements second only to the CS department. The placement percentage stood at 91.94%. Out of the total 62 students that opted for placements, 57 were able to secure decent jobs. However, finance firms and banks are yet to realize the true potential of this department. One can get an INR 20 LPA by doing a decent internship and maintaining a good CGPA.
  • Excellent Master's opportunities are even better than CS students. This is the best option for those planning to get a master's abroad. To upgrade your CV, you can do internships and choose electives accordingly. All this will increase your chances of admission to CSE, data science, finance, and mathematics.
  • Job opportunities: This program has excellent opportunities in terms of jobs as well as research and many fields are open to hire students of this course. 

Cons

  • The rigidity of the syllabus makes it the jack of all trades master of none. You cannot choose the elective according to your interest during the initial years. Many useless courses add to the overall workload with no increase in knowledge.
  • Those who aren’t into finance may find it difficult to cope with it as it’s impossible to drop finance courses during the initial years.

In the near future when the IT industry will be at its peak, MnC might be better than CSE in terms of monetary benefits. If you aren’t certain about your area of interest, then Maths and Computing are definitely better than all core branches except CS.
