It will be worth it to join Haldia Institute of Technology for CSE. A close friend of mine recently graduated from here and his experience was amazing. The placement record is more than 90% every year with companies like Wipro, Cognizant, and Infosys visiting the campus.

Other companies like Tech Mahindra also recruit from HIT but they are not among the regular recruiters. If you have good knowledge of your branch and have great programming skills then you can easily get a package of more than 5 LPA. 

The institute is located in the industrial belt but the exposure is a little less at Haldia Institute than in metropolitan cities. However, you will have an ample amount of free time which you can use to learn new skills. 

Apart from the exposure, you will get everything at Haldia Institute including a peaceful and calm environment.

The package depends on his/her performance and ability. One can expect as much as they can but it is necessary to be efficient for that package. Amity University is a private university with a world-class infrastructure and facility. The highest package of 18 LPA is achieved by a student of the Computer Science department at Amity University Noida. Following companies visit the campus every year for recruitments:

• A+ grade companies: Amazon, Dell, Microsoft, Samsung.
• A grade companies such as Intel, Wipro, Tata, Sony, IBM, Cognizant, Tech Mahindra.
• Other major companies: Indus valley, PayU, NIIT, Aricent, CISCO, Ford, Accenture.

Students placed in these companies bag an average package of 3 lakh per annum. Also, the highest domestic package offered is 18 LPA in the computer science department. In case of mass recruitment, one can easily get 3 to 4.5 LPA from these companies. These figures can be also changed from one’s special skills and knowledge. The placement department is focused to get every student placed in the company. Every company allows students of 7 CGPA or above to sit in placement. So Amity University has nearly 100% placement in the Computer Science department. An average student can get a package of 3.5 to 5 Lakhs per annum. Some students also get two or more placements offers from different companies. Apart from the placement, the university has lots to explore and learn different skills. It also makes you ready for industry and world.

I have a few friends from both Thapar University and LNM-IIT Jaipur and based on the reviews I got from them, I will say LNMIIT Jaipur will be a better option. Here are the reasons why.

• Batch Strength: The total number of students at LNMIIT is less than 600, so the competition will be less in this college. 
• Placements: The placement scenario of this college is excellent. Top companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Oyo, Uber visit the campus for placements. Samsung is a mass recruiter in this college and has offered packages of more than 13 lakhs per annum. According to the recent placement highlights the average and highest CTC offered to the students are 12 LPA and 58 LPA respectively. Students also perform well in off-campus placements. 
• Workshops: There are various kinds of workshops such as GSoC, mun, and many cultural and technical fests organized in the college. 
• Reservations: There are no reservations or state quotas for admission. 
• Coding Culture: The campus has a good coding culture. 

Hence, LNMIIT is a very good place to pursue CSE, but a college is just a medium and it completely depends on how you can utilize your 4 years in the college. Your success will depend on your hard work and efforts. 

All the Engineering branches at Amity University will be having the same subjects in their first year at Amity University. There will be 11 subjects in both the first and second semesters.

There are few subjects common for all in four years of their engineering which are - English; Foreign business Language (French, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, etc); and Behavioral science

The following table shows the subjects for both the 1st and 2nd semester:

Sometimes first and second-semester subjects might get interchanged, but overall first-year syllabus will be the same as mentioned above.

When computer science was first introduced in India as a course to pursue, it was launched in only two colleges namely, IIT (Kharagpur or Kanpur) and MNNIT Allahabad.

It was a five years course in the former while in the latter it was a four-year course.  Therefore it can be said that the first batch to launch in the market was from MNNIT Allahabad.

CSE in MNNIT Allahabad is the best branch among all the branches. The reason is stated below:

• Good placement: In the placement drive 2020, 96.42% of students out of 168 eligible students got placed from the department which stood just after the IT department. The average package is the highest from the CSE department which is 18.02 lakhs per annum. The highest CTC offered was 39.002 lakhs which is the same as the ECE department and is the highest among all other departments.

• The coding culture here is very good.
• The faculty is quite good and friendly. Also, you will get a competitive peer group. 
• Ragging is not tolerated in the institution.

Hope it helps to get an idea about the CSE branch of the institute.
