One of my friends studied at DTU. To him, it is at par with old IITs and BITS. Let us see why he preferred DTU over any other IIITs or IITs.
- DTU has a 100% placement record. Almost all the big companies like Adobe, Google, Microsoft visit their campus for placement
- The salary package sometimes reaches as high as 1.25 crores.
- Recently there has been a change in the system of electives as you can study any subject of any branch. You can also choose online courses which are not present in most of the IITs.

Which is the best option, BITS Pilani Goa (CSC) or Calicut NIT (CSC)?
First of all, I want to clarify that there is no such branch called CSC in either BITS Pilani or NIT Calicut. Both the colleges have Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) degrees
- BITS Pilani is a top private engineering university. However the same cannot be said about its Goa campus.
- NIT is a brand that is recognized instantly by almost everyone in any part of the country and this gives NIT Calicut a distinct advantage.
- As it is a government-run college the learning environment is also better due to the better quality of students.
- Companies also prefer NITs over private engineering colleges. You will get better job opportunities at NIT Calicut.
| Categories | CSE at BITS Pilani Goa | CSE at NIT Calicut |
| Course Fee | 19.19 lakh | 5.42 lakh |
| Highest CTC | 24 LPA | 29 LPA |
| Average CTC | 11 LPA | 18 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Google, nVidia, DE Shaw, Arcesium, etc. | Wipro, TCS, Accenture, IBM, etc. |
Hence it is suggested that CSE at NIT Calicut is a much better choice than CSE at BITS Pilani Goa campus.
Can I get a seat in a university in Amrita, Coimbatore in CSE or chemical engineering with a rank of 11,500?
I have a few friends from Amrita University, so I can give you some information regarding the required cutoff for admission at the institute.
With this rank, you will get admission at Amrita University but for getting a CSE branch you will need a rank below 3000. If your rank is above 3000, then you may ask the management and you might get Bangalore or Amritapuri branch for the CSE.
If you are not in the Tamil Nadu state quota category you cannot get a seat with the counseling process, you will need to contact the college for more details. If you belong to the state quota then you might get preference and get the branch of your choice.
Which should be preferred, CS at VNIT or EEE at NIT Surathkal?
You are comparing two different branches; Computer (CSE) and Electrical (EEE). If you are naturally inclined towards a particular branch, then you should choose it no matter the institute. If you are not sure about the branch then let me share some facts I got to know while researching about the institutes.
- NIRF Engineering Ranking 2020 – VNIT Nagpur is ranked 27 while NIT Surathkal is ranked 13.
- Academics – In this regard both are equal. Some professors are good and some are really bad.
- Extra-Curricular Activities – NIT Surathkal is way better than VNIT Nagpur. You will always find some activity happening on the campus. VNIT Nagpur does not have any such activities being conducted regularly.
- Campus location – VNIT Nagpur is actually better than NIT Surathkal. Although the Surathkal beach which is right beside the college looks good in photos, the same cannot be said in person. The VNIT Nagpur campus on the other hand is clean and green.
- Workshops – At VNIT Nagpur most of the workshops organized by the clubs are paid while at NIT Surathkal most of them were free and open to all.
