The IT courses at IIIT Allahabad are top-notch unlike CSE at BITS, Pilani’s. As CSE and IT are different courses and since you say that college doesn't matter to you it comes down to choosing between the subjects. IIEST Shibpur is doing great too in its infrastructure; placements and alumni base. The CST department has done great in the field of placements with 90% student placements in IIEST Shibpur. The highest was about 48 LPA from DirectI and the average package was around 8 LPA.

Which should one choose, VIT University, Vellore CSE or ITM University, Gwalior CSE?

AK
Anusha Karmakar Posted On : March 31st, 2021
B.Tech Engineering & Mechanical Engineering Design, ITM University Gwalior, Turari Campus (2019)

ITM University is one of the emerging top private universities in the country. You might think that this is answer biased but personally I have no associations with any of these universities.

ITM University has grown tremendously in the last 6 years. The guests that the University invites in the convocation ceremony are no ordinary people but an alumnus at the university and you will be surprised to see the names. Here are a few names of the alumni:

  • Mrs. Aruna Roy (ex IAS Officer, recipient of Magsaysay Award)
  • Rajat Sharma
  • Yuvraj Singh
  • Shri Ashok Vajpeyi
  • Padmashri Govind Nihalani
  • Padma Vibhushan Dr. Raghunath Anant Mashelkar

Now, let us look at the comparison between the VIT University, Vellore CSE, and ITM University, Gwalior CSE.

  • VIT is much older than ITM and thus, VIT outshines in case of reputation and facilities. The intake for CSE at VIT Vellore is 1200 but at ITM Gwalior, it is just 120.
  • The infrastructure at VIT Vellore is much better than the infrastructure at ITM Gwalior. In fact, the infrastructure of VIT Vellore is one of the finest among all the colleges in the country.
  • The fee at VIT Vellore is approximately 15 lakhs (hostel fee included) if you get selected through VITEEE (the entrance exam conducted by VIT). But if you go through the management quota or category system, you will have to pay a hefty amount of Rs. 30 lakhs, approximately. The fee at ITM Gwalior is Rs. 9 lakhs for 4 years (hostel fee included).
  • Faculties are good at both institutions. There are faculties for M.tech and Ph.D. in both institutions.

Do not join VIT Vellore through management quota paying such a large amount, join only if you make it via entrance exam because it will not be beneficial.

ITM Gwalior provides you with good opportunities at a much lesser fee.

Should I choose CS at JIIT Noida or BIET Jhansi?

AG
Archit Garg Posted On : February 19th, 2021
B.Tech BIET Jhansi,2020

There is no surety about JIIT Noida, but- BIET JHANSI is a government college and ranks at 3 in UPTU. It has a very large campus with all facilities and placements are also good. While JIIT is a private institute. So, there is no comparison between BIET and JIIT. As we know that there are a number of private colleges in every nook and corner but government colleges are rare.

Here are some highlights of the CS program at BIET Jhansi.

Infrastructure:

On campus, you will have ample resources to enhance your coding skills like free LAN. You can also count on the seniors to provide useful hacks but it does not include the faculty.

Placement:

  • At campus, most of the offers are made by TCS. However, you can always opt for off-campus placement. Alumni of this college are even placed in Adobe 
  • Placements from college are merely in TCS but you have many options for off-campus placements. Alumni are even placed at Adobe.

Here is a brief overview of the CS program offered by JIIT Noida AND BIET Jhansi. 

Basis

JIIT Noida

BIET Jhansi

Fee Structure for Btech

INR 2.37 LPA

INR 61,800

Highest CTC

INR 43.17 LPA

INR 12 LPA

Average CTC

INR 7.4 LPA

INR 4.5 LPA

Major Recruiters

Adobe, DE Shaw, Amazon, Morgan Stanley, etc.

Adobe, Optum, TCS, Wipro, and Byjus. 

Hence, looking at the above table, it can be said that JIIT Noida is a way better choice over BIET Jhansi. But CS at BIET Jhansi is only advisable if you love coding. Otherwise, there’s a high chance that you will remain jobless by your final year.

How are the labs and faculty of IIIT Guwahati for a CSE? Is it worth joining IIIT instead of NSIT in Delhi for automation branch?

AM
Aritra Majumder Posted On : June 9th, 2021
Studies Electronics and Communication Engineering at Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi (2019)

One of my friends studied at IIIT Guwahati. According to him, you should think of joining IIIT Guwahati. It will be very beneficial especially if you are willing to study Computer Science Engineering at this institute. Finally, all this would completely depend on where your interests lie.

  • Earlier, IIIT Guwahati had a temporary campus but as of now, it has established a permanent campus that is under construction.
  • You will see that a few buildings are still being constructed with few complete ones.
  • The location is also slightly isolated.
  • However, if you are one of those students who enjoy the serenity on campus, you will enjoy it here.
  • The labs are very well equipped and you will be working with some of the best state-of-the-art equipment and latest hi-tech gadgets.
  • The lab assistants are also well-experienced individuals and will help guide you with great competence throughout your curriculum and your research work as well.
Categories IIIT Guwahati
Course Fee 9.05 lakh
Highest CTC 16-20 LPA
Average CTC 12 LPA
Recruiting Companies L&T, Morgan Stanley, Accenture, Wipro, etc.

It is true that IIIT Guwahati is a relatively new institute but I will suggest you go for CSE at IIIT Guwahati as compared to NSIT for automation. It is definitely worth joining. You can think for yourself and make a decision accordingly. Good luck.

Should I choose NIT Calicut CS or BITS Hyderabad EEE?

SG
Sreyasi Gupta Posted On : August 25th, 2021
Studying at NIT Calicut (2022)

In comparison to BITS Hyderabad’s EEE, NIT Calicut’s CSE, the latter would be considered a better option. However, it is entirely up to you whether you want to pursue IT jobs or electrical hardware jobs. 

  • The NIT Calicut CSE batch had a 100% placement record. 
  • They were offered the highest salary package of 40 LPA.
  • The department of computer science is regarded as one of the best in the institute. 
  • Many well reputed companies such as Direct I, Morgan Stanley and over a hundred other multinational corporations (MNCs) come to campus for recruitment. 
  • When it comes to the overall development of a student NIT Calicut provides a plethora of opportunities during the tech fest TATHVA and the cultural fest RAGAM.

Tabulated difference between NIT Calicut CSE or BITS Hyderabad EEE are:

Categories CSE from NIT Calicut EEE from BITS Hyderabad
Total course fee 5.42 lakhs 19.9 lakhs
Top recruiters ABB, Amadeus, Amdocs, Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, Capgemini Adobe, Amazon, Axis Bank , Capgemini, CGI Information Systems and Management Consultants, Cisco System
Highest salary package 36 LPA 45 LPA
Average Salary Package 15 LPA 12 LPA

As I am not much familiar with BITS Hyderabad, I am not able to share details about the college. I had some of my friends graduating from NIT Calicut so I was able to share these details. Therefore, I believe CSE from NIT Calicut is the better option. You can interact with ex-students of BITS Hyderabad to get a proper overview of the college.

Should I join CUSAT or FISAT for CS engineering?

DB
Diksha Bose Posted On : July 20th, 2021
B.Tech CSE, IIT BHU (2019)

Both the Cochin University of Science And Technology (CUSAT) and Federal Institute of Science And Technology (FISAT) are very good institutes and have almost similar rankings in the state of Kerala. Now you can compare both the institutes on various parameters. I have taken two broad and the most popular parameters for this comparison.

Placement - In this regard, the School of Engineering (SoE) of CUSAT is better than FISAT. According to the recent placement statistics, the average and highest CTC offered at CUSAT is 4 LPA and 15 LPA respectively. Cochin University College of Engineering Kuttanad (CUCEK) campus of CUSAT is also similar to SoE in terms of placements.

Infrastructure - Here FISAT takes an upper hand and has better facilities than both SoE and CUCEK. SoE is slightly good and is comparable to FISAT but CUCEK lacks a lot of facilities compared to both.

So it totally depends on you and what your priorities are. If you only aim for placements then choose CUSAT. If you want good infrastructure, then FISAT is preferable.

How much GPA is required to change my branch from ECE to CSE in IIIT Guwahati?

SG
Shrishti Ganguly Posted On : June 11th, 2021
B.Tech. Electronics and Communication Engineering, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Guwahati (2019)

IIIT Guwahati offers only two courses currently in its undergraduate B.Tech program; ECE and CSE.

Currently, no cut-off CGPA exists above which you can apply for the branch change. Try to score as high as possible and try to be among the very top few of the branch. The higher your CGPA is, the better your chances are for a possible branch change.

It is suggested it would be better if you can aim for a CGPA of 9.2 and above.

But I would also suggest you not burden yourself with the grades and numbers too much and enjoy your studies as much as possible. Study well and strive hard for your success and definitely, you can do wonders at any branch.
