Which is better, mining in IIT Kharagpur or mechanical in IIT Patna?

A
Admin Posted On : June 20th, 2024

First of all you need to lose this ideology that mechanical has more scope and mining has less scope. Every field has top notch research going in it and provides dynamic and challenging work opportunities. 

I also had the same dilemma and I chose Mining at IIT Kharagpur over other departments for to following reasons:-

  • IIT Kharagpur is famous for its Mining branch which is one of the core branches in b.tech.
  • IIT Kharagpur is ranked 6th in the NIRF ranking while IIT Patna is Ranked 41th.
  • IIT Kharagpur has a Median Salary of 16 LPA while IIT Patna is at 12 LPA.
  • IIT Kharagpur is one of the oldest institutes in India established in 1951.
  • Coal India also comes for recruitment at IIT Kharagpur and international companies like Rio Tinto come for recruitment process.

Should I prefer IEM Kolkata IT or Heritage institute technology ECE?

DB
Devdeep Banerjee Posted On : June 15th, 2022
B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata

IEM Kolkata IT will be comparably better. Although IEM has pretty strict rules in place, it offers better opportunities in terms of academics and placements. According to the stats of recent IEM placements, each year around 90% of students get placed each year from IT. The highest CTC for the branch is INR 40 LPA. 

Heritage Institute of Technology is a good option, if you want to pursue research or MS, further.

NS
Neha Sharma Posted On : March 18th, 2021
IIIT Siri City (2019)

IIIT Ranchi is one of the most-recent IIIT in India. It has a brand name. So, the reputation of the college will steadily grow as the year passes.

It has a parent institute known as NIT Jamshedpur. NIT Jamshedpur is a good institute. So, it can be expected that IIIT Ranchi will follow in the footsteps. IIIT Ranchi already has similar facilities like NIT Jamshedpur.

There are two types of IIITs.

  • State-funded like IIIT Delhi, IIIT BBSR, etc
  • Centrally-funded like IIIT Allahabad

IIIT Ranchi is a centrally-funded institute. It has the potential to surpass the barriers of CFTI that has some benefits of its own. As it is an IIIT, the crowd of the college is also decent.

Which is better EEE at IIT Guwahati or CSE at DTU?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

While IIT is a globally recognized brand, DTU is no less the mother institution of reputed colleges like IIT Delhi and FMS. It has been established got 83 years and is older than IITs. However, the institute is always the secondary thing to consider, the branch being the primary factor to focus on. Determine whether your interests lie in becoming a Computer Science engineer or an Electronics Engineer.

Personally, I would suggest you go for DTU CSE because of the following reasons:

Faculty: DTU has a rich pool of highly esteemed and well-qualified Professors with over an experience of more than 30 years of teaching

Campus: Located in a metro city, you are exposed to city life. You can also prepare for IAS, MBA, GRE, Language Courses, or coding courses as Delhi has the best coaching institutes.

DTU has a rich campus culture with over 120+ societies and 15+ Technical Teams.

Alumni

There are many alumni of DTU who have made significant contributions in various fields.

Here are a few examples:

  • Vijay Shekhar Sharma, Founder of Paytm
  • Praveen Sinha: Co-Founder Jabong.com
  • Ravi Grover: Director, Homi Bhabha National Institute. Ex- principal Adviser to Dept. of Atomic Energy, India. 
  • Durjoy Datta: Bestselling author
  • Raghbir Singh Bhola: Arjuna Award winner, Olympian.
  • Sachin Garg: Author
  • Subhav Sinha: Inventor
  • Niketan Madhok : Supermodel
  • Krishnan Ganesh: Founder - TutorVista
  • Sushant Singh Rajput: actor

Which is the better option - PICT for IT, VIT Pune for IT, or WCE Sangli for CSE?

AC
Abhinav Chowdhury Posted On : October 13th, 2023
Lives in Pune, Maharashtra, India

My friend was in a similar dilemma when he was left with these three options. Based on his experience, PICT is the best option in Pune for computers. The institute provides an environment and resources suitable for working on quality projects. The academic ambiance is excellent and you will get a chance to develop yourself. Students with a good CGOA bag good offers while some open their own startups.

WCE is a decent college with a good campus and faculty pool. The students make it to average companies like TCS Infosys cognizant. It’s the best college in the Kolhapur and Solapur University area. Most students opt for a job rather than pursuing higher studies.

VIT has the added advantage of being in Pune so if you ever face this situation, choose VIT over WCE. The preference order therefore is, PICT>VIT>WCE.

My JEE rank is 600. Should I go for electrical at IIT Kanpur or CS at IIT Roorkee?

A
Admin Posted On : June 25th, 2024

As per the latest stats, you will not be able to get admission in CSE at IIT Roorkee at this rank if you are from the general category. I think that you should choose EE at IIT Kanpur over CSE at IIT Roorkee because of the following reasons:-

  • Taking EE in Kanpur is more advantageous than CSE in Roorkee due to higher placement percentages and more flexible academics, which helps to let you develop yourself more.
  • IIT Kanpur has a better NIRF ranking of 4th compared to IIT Roorkee 5th.
  • As of 2023, the average salary at IIT Kanpur EE branch is 26.27 LPA, while the average salary for IIT Roorkee's CSE branch is 27 LPA, so there is not much difference.
  • More than 250 companies like Microsoft, Fujitsu, Samsung, Reliance, Goldman Sachs, and McKinsey visited IIT Kanpur campus in 2023.
  • Electrical engineering provides you with opportunities in both the public and private sectors.
  • The best aspect is that if you later discover you have no interest in EE, you can always move to Software Engineering.
