Which should I choose: CSE at BITS, Goa or CSE at NIT, Trichy?

PP

I hope you are not the kind who evaluates and compares institutes solely based on their placement scenario. Here are a few things to consider while comparing CSE at BITS Goa and CSE at NIT Trichy.

  • Faculty: BITS Goa CS department has a better and more experienced faculty pool in comparison to the NIT Trichy CS department. BITS Goa has a thorough screening while recruiting and most professors are PhD holders from top colleges abroad as well from India.
  • Infrastructure: Both institutes are equally good in this aspect with top-notch infrastructure and facilities.
  • Peer group: The crowd quality is also similar considering that NIT Trichy being the top NIT attracts high-rankers while the no-reservation policy at BITS Pilani ensures only the best minds. 
  • Brand value: BIT Pilani enjoys a better brand value because of its rich legacy and wins in this aspect although NIT itself is not very bad either.
  • Fees: This is where NIT Trichy takes the lead as its BTech one-year fee is only ?1.78 Lakhs (1st Year Fees) while BITS Goa BE first-year fee is ?5.72 Lakhs.
  • Placements: BITS Goa again is the winner here although, with excellent coding skills, you can get a great job in any of the 2 institutes.

So, unless you have any financial constraints, BITS Goa is the best choice for you.

What integrated course can I get into at BITS Goa with a mark of 275?

SY
Shreyashi Yadav Posted On : November 10th, 2022
Lives in Texas, United States

BITS Pilani is nearly impossible to beat at any score lower than 305.

Unless you are in an "IIT," or unless you are only concerned with the college brand name, the subjects you will study in the future. To be honest, your skills and knowledge will get you everything, but stream allows you to become eligible to sit for the jobs you want. You should emphasize focusing on the stream rather than the college brand name because many colleges have eligibility criteria, i.e. CSE/IT students can apply but others cannot, and thus other students are not exposed to enough opportunities, as is the case at the college where I did my undergrad and many other colleges.

AS
Aytijhya Seth Posted On : August 2nd, 2021
Studies ECE at BITS Goa, 2022

As some of my friends studied at BITS Goa, I might be able to share some facts about the particular course offered here.

  • According to them, if you secure a comparatively low BITSAT score, you might not obtain a seat in any of the well known branches.
  • This includes the 4 year B.E courses CS, ECE, EEE, ENI, Mechanical Engineering, and others.
  • In any case whatsoever, you can likewise enroll in these few of the 5 year Dual Degree Courses - Economics, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
  • The first 2 semesters, however, you will have to study alongside the 4th year BE students.
  • Following that, on the basis of your over 1st and 2nd semester’s CGPA, you can go on to choosing your preferable engineering branch.
  • It partly also depends upon your individual performance and branch availability.
Categories Dual Degree in BITS Goa
Course Fee 19.19 lakh
Course Duration 4 years
Highest CTC 23 LPA
Average CTC 12 LPA
Recruiting Companies Tech Mahindra, Wipro, TCS, Cognizant, etc.

After that, you gradually end up acquiring an M.Sc degree and a B.E degree. The aforementioned facts are true enough for every BITS campus, Pilani, Goa, or Hyderabad.

Which one is better if the money factor is excluded, NIT Kurukshetra Electrical or BITS Goa EEE?

MS
Mayank Sharma Posted On : August 24th, 2021
B.E from BITS Goa (2020)

The faculty members of the EEE department at BITS Goa are not good, except for a few of them. 

According to the professors, the only way to answer the questions is to attend their lectures and not understand the concepts. The average scores and grades are very low. The average of a class usually is C in a test or marks like 15 out of 75.

BITS has a higher brand value than any NIT in India. You can clear your concepts on your own. You can also learn from the knowledgeable professors of the EEE department.

If you maintain a CGPA of 8 or above, especially in the EEE department, you can easily get an internship with the help of a practice school program. These factors also help you if you opt to study further in any part of the world, or if you prefer to do a job.

However, placements at NIT Trichy are better. But, if you have the required skills, you will get good opportunities to land up in a good job position. The average CTC offered to the students is 5 LPA. 

You will easily get into a good institution for higher studies or any good company for a job, even if you do not pay much attention to the lectures at BITSG. All you need to do is, have some good internship experience, be on good terms with few faculties of the EEE department, and get required recommendation letters.

Are freshers ragged at BITS Goa Campus?

AS
Ananya Singh Posted On : August 3rd, 2021
Studied Physics & Computer Science at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (2021)

A friend of mine is studying at the BITS Goa campus. As per his experience, there is no ragging taking place at the BITS Goa campus.

There might be a fun introduction for the freshers, but it will not hurt anyone. As a fresher, my friend used to accompany his seniors to their rooms. Seniors are friendly in this institute. The only thing they might mind is freshers calling them sir, Bhaiya, and other names.

Ragging is an offense in BITS Goa like other colleges. The college adheres to all the Anti-Ragging laws by the government, UGC Regulations, an Anti-Ragging Committee, and Anti-Ragging Squads at the institute.

Which one is better: IT in IIIT Allahabad or CSE in BITS Goa?

MS
Muktesh Shukla Posted On : March 21st, 2023
Studied at the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (IIIT Allahabad)

The IT degree at IIIT Allahabad is considered one of the best in India, and it is aligned with the CSE curriculum from the best IITs and NITs in India. The professors are a mixed bag, with some highly qualified, doing good research, and teaching well, while some may be uninteresting. However, with some self-motivation, the academic landscape is quite good. 

IIIT Allahabad has a great culture for programming, which can help you become a serious developer. The infrastructure is good, the campus is green, and the architecture is impressive, with the added benefit of being centrally air-conditioned.

On the downside, the city life in Allahabad is not great, especially if you come from a metro city. You may experience a cultural shock. The research environment is not exceptional, and there are only a handful of students aspiring to pursue higher education. You will find yourself in a batch of more than 200 students, in which you have to create your own identity. The weather is terrible, with extremely hot summers and cold winters (although some people may like the winters). The sports infrastructure is not the most amazing one.

In summary, here's the verdict:

  • If you're interested in research and want to pursue technical education further in your career, BITS Goa may be the right choice for you.
  • If you want a great Indian IT job after your degree, IIIT Allahabad may be the right choice for you.
  • If you're looking for a better peer group, better girls, and a more happening city life, BITS Goa may be the right choice for you.
  • If you're serious about programming and have a penchant for Competitive Programming, IIIT Allahabad may be the right choice for you.
