What should I choose: IIT Indore CSE or BITS Pilani EEE?
When faced with a similar situation different people make different choices. There is no right choice as it’s a matter of personal preference. IIT Indore CSE and BITS Pilani EEE are both lucrative options and thus only your personal choices can determine the right one.
There are some who wish to grab the IIT tag and want to take CS because the branch is a major crowd-puller. While some want to experience the brand and prestige of the old BITS Pilani.
I would suggest you go for IIT Indore as the small batch size has its own benefits and moreover, IIT Indore has been growing quickly and seems to give more promising results in the future. The small batch size gives the vibe of a small family and you will love the bond here. BITS Pilani on the other hand has its own aura with Meritocracy as the mantra but its high fees are a major issue.
Both the institutes are equally good and choosing one of the other wouldn’t be a regretful decision.
Is BITS Goa good for CS?
According to some of my friends studying at BITS Goa, it is undeniably a very established institute to pursue Computer Science (CS). One of the main reasons is the faculty BITS Goa essentially involves. Under their supervision, you will be part of handling several projects in your course of study.
However, at times, it might get quite difficult securing certain individual projects under the guidance of professors due to a huge amount of competition.
Here is the latest placement report of BITS Goa,
| Highest Salary Package | INR 25 LPA |
| Average Salary Package | INR 12-16 LPA |
| Top Recruiting Companies | BNY Mellon, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, ZS Associates, Microsoft, Ebay, Paypal, Tesco, KPMG, etc. |
On the flip side, you will indisputably acquire a good set of experience from both PS 1 and PS 2. The placement drive is usually very robust, since the institute is often visited by various top IT firms. However, since the competition is quite high, it might get slightly difficult. Although, it will be worth it nonetheless.

How much CGPA is required for branch change from mining to maths and computing in IIT BHU?
For branch change from mining to MNC in IIT BHU, one needs to consider the following points.
As per the policy, a student of a 4-year program(Btech) can get his branch changed to a 4-year program(Btech) only and a student of a 5-year program(IDD) can get his branch changed to a 5-year program(IDD) only. Considering this, you cannot get your branch changed to MNC unless you are in a 5-year program (IDD) at IIT-BHU mining. IIT BHU offers only an IDD program in Mathematics and Computing.
Another branch change policy states that the total intake of a branch during branch change should be 10% of the total batch strength. Now, Maths and Computing have very few students, only around 20-25. This means only 2 students can get their branch changed into MNC. This results in tough competition and one has to score at least 9.7 CPI to be eligible for branch change.
What books do I have to take to BIET Jhansi for CSE?
At BIET Jhansi, you will be most likely to learn subjects that have no connection with Computer Engineering. It will include subjects like C language and its basics. But if you have any basic knowledge of any of these programming languages like C, C++, Java then there’s nothing to worry about.
- If you want to read something, then you should try out Pointers in C. This one is definitely worth it and will provide you with valuable information related to your syllabus.
- There is a departmental library where you can find many books related to your syllabus and subjects.
- You can also manage to find PDF files that are available online for free.
- An online library is also available at BIET Jhansi where you can find more than 200 books of every genre ranging from romance, thriller to personality development with multiple copies available for each book. These books will be enough for you to read in your free time according to your interests and gain more knowledge.
Don't carry any such book as there are plenty of books available in the departmental library for every requirement. Also, with an online library, you will find books on every genre including your subjects books too.
Which one is better for a CSE: Jamia Millia Islamia or NIT Kurukshetra?
One of my friends recently passed out from NIT Kurukshetra. He was all praise for the coding culture there and also the placements. A lot of good companies like Google Microsoft Directi offer great packages given that your profile is deserving.
- The city life however is not very dynamic because Kurukshetra is a small city with very few places to hang out unlike Delhi, a very vibrant city.
- The hostel life is great because you make very good friends here. Students are provided with excellent internet facilities.
- The faculty is decent like any other engineering college with a mix of both good and below-average professors.
- The best part is that students won’t have to buy any study material from outside. You get 5 books from the college library for the entire semester and 3 additional books for a 15-day cycle.
- The food served in the mess is average but it's the same everywhere.
- The infrastructure is average but things are slowly getting better under the new director. New buildings and a swimming pool have been made.

Is Manipal (Chennai) CSE better than Amrita (Amritapuri) CSE? How? Where do we have better opportunities?
One of my friends was in Amritapuri so I know better about Amrita University than Manipal University, Chennai. The brand Amrita isn’t known among the IITs and NITs but the college is quite prominent among the companies and universities.

- You will be eligible for placements if you have scored above 6 CGPA.
- The hostel life of this campus is not as good as compared to other colleges yet it’s bearable.
- Boys aren’t much restricted from the hostel rules and regulations but girls have to follow the set rules.
- There are sub-disciplines that you can join by joining The FOSS Club, the ICPC team, and CTF team.
- For exploring FOSS you would have to join The FOSS club, for sports programming the ICPC team and for security CTF team will be a good opportunity.

Which is better for CSE, Dr. B.C. Roy Engineering College or UEM Kolkata?
One of my cousins is studying CSE at UEM University so I can give you a scenario of UEM University.
Here are a few of the things about UEM Kolkata.
- The faculties of UEM Kolkata are good and they also help students.
- You will have all the academic exposure here as lots of conferences keep happening at UEM. The academic design of UEM is also good. But semesters are not easy, you have to study hard.
- UEM seniors are good. Few of them have created video games for android and built non-framework cars. UEM also started a group where students can build their own cars.
In the table below take a look at the placement scenario of both institutes.
| Category | B.C. Roy Engineering College | UEM Kolkata |
| Recruiters | Capgemini, TCS, Wipro, L&T, etc. | TCS, Wipro, Videonetics, Deloitte, etc. |
| Average CTC | INR 3 LPA | INR 4.2 LPA |
| Highest CTC | INR 5 LPA | INR 40 LPA |
UEM Kolkata is a good college if you want to learn every aspect of engineering and gain knowledge. If you want to consider other colleges, then you can go for - IEM, Heritage, Techno India, St. Thomas, Narula Institute of Technology, and B.P. Poddar.
