How is BIT Mesra Jaipur campus for CSE? How good are the placements?

AB
Arun Biswas Posted On : August 17th, 2023
Studied at Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra

You will be placed from the BIT Mesra (main) campus after your final semester. As most of the placements happen at Mesra campus, you will get the opportunity to showcase your skills in front of big-shot brands like Amazon, Flipkart, Directi, etc. For the 2023 placements from the Jaipur campus, as per now, the highest package for B.Tech stands at INR 51 LPA and the median package stands at INR 8.2 LPA. A total of 53% B.Tech students from the Jaipur campus have been placed.

Moreover, your degree will have the BIT Mesra tag, your campus name (Jaipur Campus) will not be mentioned in your degree ( this is regardless of whichever campus you belong to). As BIT Mesra is a brand in itself, you will easily grab a good job after your degree. However, you should consult the alumni from the Jaipur campus to know about the teaching faculty for CSE over there. This is because faculty matters as much. 

BIT Jaipur campus is a good place to pursue your B.Tech CSE in terms of placements. You should talk to the seniors and alumni of the college to find out about the faculty and overall environment over there.

Which is better? IIT Gandhinagar for CS or BITS Goa for CS?

DB
Dishari Bannerjee Posted On : March 26th, 2021
B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar (2018)

It is clear how so many students from IIT Gandhinagar have answered your question before me. And this is what makes these answers slightly biased. But I would try on my part, to provide you with authentic information on IIT Gandhinagar- without coming off as biased. 

STEP 1: DECIDE YOUR BRANCH

  • This is a very tricky part. It's either the Electric or CS branch that leaves students confused. 
  • Honestly, it is of no use to pursue Electrical Engineering while uninterested at IIT. 
  • If you are still indecisive, you can talk to the ex-students of that department. 
  • BITS is great for CS and IIT Gandhinagar for Electrical Engineering. But if you still have some second thoughts, try this next step.

STEP 2: BITS vs IIT

  • BITS being older and having more experience makes placements easier. They also offer more salary packages for a CS degree than an Electrical Engineering degree at IIT Gandhinagar. 
  • IITs still have an upper hand as a brand name. In case you are wanting to shift to the USA for higher studies, it would be great. Otherwise, BITS Goa isn't that bad a choice in India as it is valued equally as the other IITs. 

Therefore, if the USA is on your bucket list, go for IIT. Grabbing a foreign internship at IIT Gandhinagar is easier. But then if you simply want to stay in India and study, BITS Goa and IIT Gandhinagar stand equal as a brand. 

In case you have second thoughts on learning MS applications and shifting abroad, check the next step.

STEP 3: TAKE IT EASY

  • For you, neither the college nor the branch is a big deal. You have both the choices open. Think it through and choose a place where you learn for 4 years, pursuing your B.Tech degree. 
  • According to location, Goa is definitely better than Gujarat, as the climate there is balanced and not extremely hot or humid.

One of my friends had an option to choose between a certain branch that held his interest among IIT Gandhinagar for Electrical Engineering or the AIEEE colleges. It even included underrated IITs like metallurgy, aeronautical, etc. But he was certain about Electrical. Eventually, the choices came down to NIT Warangal and IIT Gandhinagar. He then thought that NIT Warangal was better than BITS Goa despite having BITS Goa for Electrical. And he eventually went for IIT Gandhinagar considering its popularity.

He was a 2013 pass-out and even after this, he is still not sure if he had made the right decision. It is fine if you're unable to make a decision. But once you decide, make sure to excel at it.

Which is better BITS Pilani (Pilani Campus) CSE, IIT Indore CSE, or BITS Pilani (Goa/Hyderabad) CSE?

Sayantani Barman Posted On : June 17th, 2023

BITS Pilani campus is way better than Goa or Hyderabad campus unless you have a specific locational preference. So that leaves you with 2 options; BITS Pilani and IIT Indore.

  • BITS Pilani is one of the oldest technical institutions and is considered a prestigious college often compared to the top IITs. IIT Indore is a second-generation IIT that has made its name because of its exponential growth. 
  • One of the major factors to consider while deciding between IIT Indore and BITS Pilani is the fees. IIT Indore fees are ?2.34 Lakhs for the first year while the entire BITS Pilani fee just for the first campus is INR 2,31,500. So unless you have any financial constraints, BITS Pilani CSE would be a better option. 
  • The best part is that BITS Pilani has no reservation policy which makes for an excellent peer culture over there. 
  • BITS Pilani has an elaborate alumni pool and is thus better than IIT Indore. 
  • The placement scenario of both the colleges is similar so that should be your last concern.

So unless you have any financial issues, BITS Pilani is the best choice unless you are adamant about the IIT tag.

Which college is best for CSE- IIT Patna, MNNIT Allahabad or ISM Dhanbad?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : July 13th, 2023

I will refrain from giving you a detailed answer because others have already done so. Rather my explanation will be simple yet impactful 

  • IIT Patna is a new IIT so you can avail the benefits of the IIT tag only and the institute in itself is just average. 
  • MNNIT Allahabad on the other hand has a rich legacy as it’s an old college. It has extensive alumni and is one of the top NITs.
  • ISM, now an IIT, has the combined features of both aforementioned institutes. It’s old and also has an IIT tag attached to it. 

That being said, my preference order among these institutes is, ISM>IIT Patna>MNNIT

Which is a better choice among industrial systems engineering at IIT Kharagpur and electrical engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar?

A
Admin Posted On : June 18th, 2024

It is tough to choose one institute over the other as all institutes have a different approach to teaching, subject curriculum, etc. 

I can say with my personal experience that Industrial Systems Engineering at IIT Kharagpur is better than Electrical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar. IIT Kharagpur is one of the oldest and best engineering colleges in India.

For the Industrial Systems Engineering branch, top recruiters like American Express, Capillary Technologies, Bosch, Tata Motors, etc. offer an average package between 13 LPA to 15 LPA, and the average placement rate for this course is over 75%. 

Even though the statistics for Electrical Engineering placements at IIT Bhubaneswar are better, IIT KGP offers a much stronger alumni network and a richer legacy. To add to this, the flexible curriculum of IIT KGP makes sure that its students can easily fit into any sector. 

After considering all the factors, I would suggest you choose Industrial Systems Engineering at IIT KGP over Electrical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar. But I would also point out that you must ultimately choose the branch which interests you the most.

PB
Priyaka Bose Posted On : April 16th, 2021
BSc from IIT Kharagpur

My brother is studying IT at IIIT Allahabad. So, I know about the placement at the institute. 

Over the year the average CTC offered at the institute is INR 12 -14 LPA. However, this way of measurement is not an indicator of the quality of placements available on campus. The median salary is a better marker of the type of packages received by students. At IIIT A the median salary has been around INR 10-12 LPA.

Adobe, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Flipkart, etc.

I hope this general placement data will give you an idea of what to expect for placements.

Is ECE good at IIIT Allahabad?

SS
Shikha Shukla Posted On : July 5th, 2021
Studied Computer Science at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2019)

There are a lot of things that come into consideration while choosing a course. One of my friends opted for ECE at IIIT Allahabad, let me share his experience, with which you might get a proper understanding.

  • If your AIR is around 7k-10k then, it is really good. Because at this rank you don’t consider yourself for branches like CS/ECE/IT in top NIT’s.
  • When you look at the insights of IIIT-A, you find it is underrated.
  • Although the college is younger than most of the top NIT’s, some professors are really outstanding.
  • The labs here are better as compared to the NITs.
  • Projects are assigned to students which carry the weightage of 5 credits. The projects start right from the fifth semester.
  • The VLSI lab has various machines and instruments which help students to work on VLSI projects.

Choosing the best college for you depends on the various parameters like your interest, location, professors, infrastructure, laboratories, culture, academic records, alumni network, and placement. Thus, choose wisely.
