Furthermore, if you end up being the lucky one among all the students and get selected in any of the dream companies in the first attempt itself, then you cannot sit for any other company and will have to take up that job. But if you are selected in two non-dream companies, you are no more eligible to sit for the placement process any further. You have to select any one of the two companies you have been selected for.
To get a good, impressive package, you need to maintain a good CGPA which is 6.0-7.5 and above. All the ATKTs must be clear, only then you would be able to see the various opportunities that would come your way.
What are pros and cons of studying cse from BIT Mesra?
BIT Mesra is a well-renowned institution and holds a great reputation for its CSE program. Here are the pros and cons of studying CSE at BIT Mesra-
Pros-
- BIT Mesra has good labs and other facilities. The Technology Block is dedicated mainly to CSE students.

- You can approach your seniors for guidance and preparation tips. Almost all the CSE students are involved in online competitions and the competitiveness is quite high.
- During 2022, the average package for the CSE branch at BIT Mesra stood at INR 19.27 LPA, and the highest package stood at INR 58.33 LPA. Amdocs, BYJU’s, Cognizant, Wipro, Infosys, Daffodil Software, etc. visited the campus for placements.
- BIT Mesra has a reputation of its own which will aid you in getting a job at a well-known brand.
Cons-
- Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the curriculum, studies become overwhelming at times. You may also end up giving less time to your CSE majors and coding.
- You might not be able to choose certain electives during the 7th and 8th semesters due to the lack of faculty available for the same.
- Semester exams are planned without any gaps in between and this can be immensely pressurizing.
BIT Mesra is a well-renowned institution and a CSE from there will definitely add value to your profile. However, if you get a CSE at DCE, BITS Pilani, Jadavpur University, or the top three NITs, go for these institutions.

What will be better, IIT KGP electrical, IIT Madras mechanical or IIT Indore CS? I have loved to code since I was in grade 8 and physics was my most favorite subject during the JEE preparation.
Choosing between IIT KGP Electrical, IIT Madras Mechanical or IIT Indore CS should depend on your area of interest, career goals, and preference. All of the IITs offer excellent academic structure which helps to enhance both your theoretical and practical skills.
- However, opting for IIT Madras Mechanical is a better choice as it is one of the oldest IITs and is ranked amongst the top academic institutions in India.
- IIT Madras offers an excellent curriculum and research facilities for the Mechanical department.
- The total course fee for 4 years of Mechanical Engineering at IIT Madras is INR 11.17 Lakhs.
- IIT Madras is known for its excellent placement statistics.
- The highest package is INR 66 LPA, the median package is INR 17 LPA and the lowest is INR 7 LPA.
Is CSAM at IIIT Delhi worth it?
No, CSAM at IIIT Delhi is definitely not worth it. Here is a detailed review of the program as shared by a friend
- Branch Structure: In the first year, students are taught subjects the same as CSE, The course structure becomes challenging after the first year, There are 2 math courses added every semester. In the 4th semester complex subjects like Algorithm design, Abstract Algebra, Differential Equations, and an elective from Physics, Maths, Bio, etc. are included in the syllabus. No core CSE courses like DBMS, CO, or OS are even offered to CSAM students. Overall, there are 7 compulsory Math courses and 5 CS courses. So, out of 15 courses to be done in the last 2 years, 12 are compulsory. 2 are compulsory for everyone and CSAM students have only 1 slot.
- Professors: Most professors are highly educated, and offer extremely challenging courses. Students aren’t asked basic questions or theorems taught in class. The grading scheme is also quite tough for these courses.
- Placements: CSAM placements at IIIT Delhi depend more on individual profiles and skills than the college. Usually, companies dont prefer CSAM students over CSE because they are taught core courses like DBMS, OS, CO, etc. CSAM BTech placement percentage this year stood at 98.44%.
All in all, the CSAM branch of IIIT Delhi isn't a good choice if you are primarily interested in placements. It is futile to study such high-level Math if only your knowledge of Data Structures, OS, DBMS, etc. will be considered during placements. CSAM should be considered only if you are interested in research in applied math.
Is ECE better than CSE in NIT Rourkela?
I am yet to understand the blind passion people possess for the CSE branch including those who have no interest in the field whatsoever. Even if you have a passion for CSE, the NIT Rourkela is certainly not the right place to bring out your abilities in this field. The placements, undoubtedly, are excellent at par with some new IITs. bit NIT Rourkela lacks in other major aspects such as
- Highly underqualified professors. In fact, the majority of the CSE classes are conducted by teaching assistants of professors who have degrees from average engineering colleges.
- Professors have no fixed marking criteria and students face serious issues when marks are deducted unnecessarily.
- The curriculum is obsolete and does not meet industry standards. Students who are serious about academics have to take up MOOCs to learn additional things.
Irrespective of the branch you go for between CSE and ECE, you will witness similar job opportunities and success rates. Most students get placed in huge firms like Amazon, Microsoft, and Samsung. So, choosing the right branch in your case depends on your personal preference and interests.

I took admission in Poornima University. Is it good for a CSE program?
One of my friends studied at Poornima University (PU). According to her, it is really good for pursuing a CSE program. CSE as a program has gained immense popularity and due to the corporate boom it will continue to grow even more.

Which college shall I choose between VNIT Nagpur and NSIT Delhi for CSE?
While VNIT Nagpur carries the NIT tag, NSUT is well-known for its CoE.
NSUT follows the updated CBCS curriculum, in which you can choose to study the subjects of your liking. More so, it scrapped off subjects like Manufacturing Processes and Machine Drawing from the CoE curriculum a few years back.
The placements for CoE and IT are especially good at NSUT. Companies regularly visit the campus with placement and internship opportunities. Moreover, the location of NSUT offers good internship and training opportunities.
You should consult some seniors from VNIT as well to get a better understanding of both the options available to you. As far as CoE at NSUT is concerned, it is a good choice in terms of both academics and placements.
