How do I get into IIT Hyderabad for an MBA?
First of all, IIT Hyderabad does not offer an MBA program. In all, only 7 IITs provide MBA programs. The MBA programs offered by these IITs rank high in the top B Schools rankings. The MBA programs offered by these 7 institutes vary in terms of eligibility criteria, fee structure, and placement statistics for the MBA programs.
Of these seven IITs, only three IITs namely, IIT Delhi, IIT Madras, and IIT Kharagpur accept students from non-engineering backgrounds for their MBA program. Admissions are given only to students from non-commerce, engineering, or science backgrounds. The MBA Programs offered at IITs are much lower in cost than the IIMs and other top B-Schools.

Which is better, IIT (BHU) Electronics, IIT Guwahati ECE, IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing, or IIITH CSE?
Rather than giving you a direct answer, I am going to evaluate all The aforementioned institutes individually on the basis of some common parameters like placements, brand name, campus life, opportunities, and alumni.
IIT BHU ECE
- Core placements are rare and students mostly build their profile for software development companies by becoming proficient in various programming languages, doing competitive coding, doing projects, and trying to build a computer science-inclined profile. A handful of students target core engineering roles.
- The brand value is similar to other colleges mentioned
- The campus is rather old and might disappoint freshers expecting a good college life.
IIT Guwahati ECE
- Unfortunately, I have no knowledge about this Institute. However, I recommend you contact the seniors of IIT Guwahati for the same.
IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing
- Usually, MNCs attract top-tier software and financial services firms. If you are a hardworking student, it wouldn’t be difficult to secure amazing offers at top firms.
IIIT Hyderabad CSE
- IIIT H has possibly one of the best computer science departments in the country.
- You have to do core computer science courses right from the first year.
- Many students get selected for Google Summer of Code and IIIT Hyderabad has its alumni in top-notch firms.
- Being highly academically oriented, IIIT Hyderabad has minimal campus life and extracurricular activities.
Ultimately, it’s a matter of preferences and what you are looking for in your degree.
How are M.Tech placements for structural engineering in IIT Hyderabad?
Placement for M-tech in institutes like IIT varies from batch to batch due to the lesser requirement of an M-tech candidate to do a particular work. The placements of structural engineering or that of any branch depend more on the placement division of the institute of that batch.
The placements for structural engineering are decent with an average package of around INR 5 LPA. I deem it as one of the best institutes to study structural engineering in India considering the fact that its research work is on par with many old IITs. The institute renders an opportunity to learn and grow with the most genius minds in the country
What is better, CSE from IIT Patna or IIT Hyderabad?
While the CS branch of both IIT Patna and IIT Hyderabad has excellent academic environments and placements, it’s the fractal system of IIT Hyderabad that steals the show. Under this, students are free to choose electives from a pool of subjects. These can even be core subjects of the department or can be also from other departments. This system helps the students pursue other branches along with CS which keeps all options open for them. Most IIT Hyderabad students are satisfied with this system.
IIT Patna lacks such a system and thus has a slight disadvantage in this aspect. No doubt, IIT Patna fairs better in terms of infrastructure, but academically, IIT Hyderabad is the clear winner.
Which college should I prefer, CSE in IIT Hyderabad, CSE in BITS Goa, EEE in BITS Pilani?
In my opinion, CSE in IIT Hyderabad is the best option amongst the aforementioned institutes. EEE in BITS Pilani is not a good option unless you are interested in core Electronics. This is because the future is CS-oriented and everyone is out there trying to secure lucrative job opportunities in the same. I wouldn’t suggest you target a branch change from EEE to CS in Pilani as for that you will require a very high CGPA as high as 9.7 which is very very tough to get.
Speaking of BITS Goa, it is known for its amazing new coding culture and no compulsory attendance policy. However, nothing can match the brand value of IIT.
IIT Hyderabad focuses primarily on AI and ML which is very beneficial for your future.
Thus it can be concluded that IIT Hyderabad is a better option for you.
I have been studying for an MSc in chemistry from IIT Hyderabad, but my 12 marks are just 61.5%. Will I qualify for a PhD abroad?
For a PhD, class 12th marks are given considerably less importance given that your graduation and post-graduation grades are great.
For a Ph.D. abroad, since you will be seeking direct admission into the university and not approaching a specific professor, your past academics matter a lot. Having good class 12 marks, graduation, and post-graduation marks will improve your chances of admission and it’s always better to play safe.
In case of average marks, you have the option to write to a professor in Europe who is working in a field that aligns with your research project topic. If you share a common ground with any professor you can get admission by skipping the entire formal admission procedure although you might have to appear for some interviews that will evaluate your research caliber.
Overall, my recommendation is to apply everywhere as long as money is not involved. In cases you are required to send documents or GRE scores you need to be careful.

How is the life of an MSc student in IIT Hyderabad?
The campus life at IIT Hyderabad is very laid back and convenient. In the first year, you just need to travel about 25 mins every day by bus at around 8:20 am to attend the classes and once the classes are over, you have to again travel the same distance back to your room. Sometimes, students get shifted to a new room in the first month.
IIT Hyderabad has two campuses, one is at Kandi, where the academic block is situated while the other campus is at ODF Medak where the first-year students live. Students are shifted to the new campus after a year.
However, if you fail to get your MSc project lab in the new campus then your last year of MSc has to be spent in the old campus again. Overall, the life of an MSc student at IT Hyderabad is unpredictable.
Which is better for computer engineering, IIT Hyderabad or BITS Hyderabad?
It’s highly illogical to measure IIT Hyderabad, the fastest-growing new IIT with a private institute BITS.
- Only top rankers with JEE Advanced ranks in the range of 500–5500 get into IIT Hyderabad while those who don’t get through JEE Advanced or have ranks of 8000+ easily get good seats in BITS Hyderabad.
- BITS Hyderabad is BITS Pilani Hyderabad Campus, not BITS Pilani.
- The average package of IIT Hyderabad is almost par with that of IIT Delhi and Bombay, while the average package of BITS Hyderabad is much lower.
- IIT Hyderabad has a Fractal Academic System, under which there is regular testing and grading throughout the year. Also, you can fill your academic palette with the courses of your choice.
- The courses are industry relevant and updated, unlike older IITs.
- Owing to the Japan Collaboration, IIT Hyderabad students regularly get internship offers, job offers, and higher study and research opportunities in Japan.
- IIT Hyderabad frequently collaborates with IIIT Hyderabad for Hackathons, Coding Competitions, and other stuff.
- IIT Hyderabad is still in its development phase and BITS has a much better campus than IIT Hyderabad.
I feel IIT Hyderabad is the better option for CS in comparison to BITS Hyderabad.
