Which is better, IIT (BHU) Electronics, IIT Guwahati ECE, IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing, or IIITH CSE?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 16th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Rather than giving you a direct answer, I am going to evaluate all The aforementioned institutes individually on the basis of some common parameters like placements, brand name, campus life, opportunities, and alumni.

IIT BHU ECE

  • Core placements are rare and students mostly build their profile for software development companies by becoming proficient in various programming languages, doing competitive coding, doing projects, and trying to build a computer science-inclined profile. A handful of students target core engineering roles.
  • The brand value is similar to other colleges mentioned
  • The campus is rather old and might disappoint freshers expecting a good college life.

IIT Guwahati ECE

  • Unfortunately, I have no knowledge about this Institute. However, I recommend you contact the seniors of IIT Guwahati for the same.

IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing

  • Usually, MNCs attract top-tier software and financial services firms. If you are a hardworking student, it wouldn’t be difficult to secure amazing offers at top firms.

IIIT Hyderabad CSE

  • IIIT H has possibly one of the best computer science departments in the country. 
  • You have to do core computer science courses right from the first year.
  • Many students get selected for Google Summer of Code and IIIT Hyderabad has its alumni in top-notch firms. 
  • Being highly academically oriented, IIIT Hyderabad has minimal campus life and extracurricular activities.

Ultimately, it’s a matter of preferences and what you are looking for in your degree.

Which should I choose, fire and safety engineering or CSE in SOE of CUSAT?

Namrata Das Posted On : August 9th, 2023
For a safe and secure future, a good salary package and an easier job, I would suggest you choose Fire and Safety Engineering at SOE, CUSAT. On the other hand, if you are confident about your programming skills and knowledge, wish for a career in IT, and would be satisfied with a comparatively lower salary (probably), choose the CSE course at SOE, CUSAT. In Safety, the job profiles are less demanding and the competition is not as high as in CSE. CSE jobs are purely merit-based. To get into Amazon, Snapdeal, etc. with high packages of 11–14 LPA and above, you need to be very skilled and hardworking. Curriculum-wise, Safety is a lot easier and contains the basics of the branches- CE, ME, EEE & EC. Therefore, based on your personal preferences, choose your stream wisely. Both CSE and Safety at SOE, CUSAT are good courses.

Dibrugarh University isn’t a good option for CSE. The academics aren’t good. The campus doesn’t have an active coding culture. Dibrugarh University placements aren’t good. Only 5% of the students get placed. During the recent campus drive, the median CTC offered was INR 3.28 LPA. Career opportunities and exposure offered are limited.

How difficult is it to get a branch change in IIT Mandi to CSE? How many hours of study is sufficient?

SD
Sree Dasgupta Posted On : May 24th, 2023
studied Computer Science at Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi

The difficulty of getting a branch change in IIT Mandi to CSE depends on various factors like the current demand for the CSE program and the availability of spots in the program. The branch upgradation policy at IIT Mandi is very easy making it highly possible to get a branch change to CSE if you start working from the beginning. All you need to do is maintain a stable CGPA around 9. The 50 % branch change criteria make it easy for everyone to get a branch change. The increasing batch-size changes the cutoff every year but to play safe, maintain a 9+ CGPA. You will be surprised to know that some even get to join CSE with a CGPA of 8.6+. 

The number of study hours required to get a branch change depends on the individual, his intellect, and his learning style. The general rule of thumb is to study at least 3 hours per day for undergraduate courses.

All you need to do is be consistent with your studies and attend classes regularly. So, it totally depends on what works for you.

Which college is best among NIT Delhi, NIT Kurukshetra, and SVNIT Surat for CSE if my residence is in Delhi NCR?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

You need to consider several factors before deciding the best college for yourself. Here are a few factors and the preferred choice if you give preference to that factor alone

  1. Alumni : The age of the institute determines how strong the alumni network is which is very crucial for the development of the institute. In terms of the alumni network the preference order should be NIT Jaipur=NIT Kurukshetra> NIT Delhi
  2. Placements: The placement scenario is somewhat similar in all the aforementioned institutes. However, NIT Delhi has a slight advantage being in Delhi. The order should be NIT Delhi > NIT Jaipur = NIT Kurukshetra
  3. Faculty: In my opinion, NIT Delhi has the best professors.
  4. Campus : NIT Kurukshetra and NIT Jaipur have equally beautiful campuses whereas the permanent campus of NIT Delhi is under construction.

Ultimately, the final decision depends on your personal preferences.

It simply cannot be stressed enough that you should, without a speck of doubt go for IIIT Vadodara. The reason I recommend this institute with so much confidence is that my friends are alumni of this same institution. Therefore, it is suggested that IIIT Vadodara will prove to be better for you than IIIT Kota for pursuing CS.

All in all, it is recommended that you definitely go for IIIT Vadodara. The faculty here is pretty good and DAIICT is the mentor institute. You simply cannot say NO to a place that comes with such a fine faculty. Other than that, the choice is yours as only you will know what's best for you.

How is IIIT Bhubaneswar CSE? Is it better than NIT Patna IT and UIET CSE?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : August 31st, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

As a student of UIET CSE, I will share some merits and demerits of the same with you-

Merits-

  1. If you are a good coder, UIET offers decent placement opportunities in the CSE branch.
  2. There is a 24*7 library facility.
  3. You’ll get the ‘Panjab University’ tag. 
  4. It is located in Chandigarh which is a serene, beautiful, and well-planned city.
  5. Your personality and leadership qualities will improve.

Demerits-

  1. The teaching environment isn’t good. You’ll have to learn by yourself, regardless of branch.
  2. The tag of ‘IITs’ or ‘NITs’ holds much more significance.
  3. You might not get the desired placement. In that case, you’ll be sitting for some competitive exam. For a placement in 4.5-5 LPA slab, you’ll have to work hard.

NIT Patna IT is a good option because it offers good placements and an NIT tag. As far as IIIT Bhubaneswar CSE is concerned, you can check all the information related to it and compare it with the other two.

What should I prefer between NSUT CSAI, IIIT Allahabad IT and MNNIT Allahabad CS?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : October 13th, 2023

Both IIIT Allahabad and MNNIT are highly regarded engineering colleges in North India offering premium quality education. Placements-wide, MNNIT CSE is slightly better compared to both NSUT and IIITA. In my opinion, the preference order should be

MNNIT CSE >= IIITA IT > NSUT CS/AI

MNNIT is the first choice because it’s on Eid the top 5 NITs with the most sought-after branch CSE. IIIT Allahabad is also a great choice for CSE because it has a CS-tailored curriculum and ambiance. 

Overall I feel if you are certain of joining an IT company, and have an interest in coding and computers go for IIIT Allahabad IT or MNNIT Allahabad. If you are unsure of your branch preference go for NSUT.

Is NIT Raipur's IT branch good? Is there any chance of branch upgradation in NIT Raipur from IT to CSE?

PC
Priyangshu Chaturvedi Posted On : April 15th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Raipur, 2020

Well, as far as my senior has said, to each its own. What matters at the end of the day is what you make of it. Much like CSE, IT basically entails coding. Reading about Anudeep Nekkati can provide you some inspiration that can help you in kickstarting your endeavors. A company that takes CSE students also accepts IT students. With hard work and a little bit of luck, in four years, you might end up in such a prosperous place you wouldn’t have imagined.

My senior prefers NITs over private universities. In NIT Raipur, you will be capable of switching to CSE if you want. A CPI of 9+ would do the trick. There are endless opportunities and you will have fewer restrictions to pursue your interest.

The placements of IT/CSE have improved significantly over the years. As for the upgradation from IT to CSE, that is also easy if you study with diligence.
