Angelina NaikB.Tech. Chemical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2018)

One of my friends had been a student of NIT Trichy, pursuing B.Tech. Let me share what I gathered from him and some reviews online.

The excellence of the courses may vary in each semester, but according to my friend, there are a few courses that are never out of standard.
Based on their learning opportunities, infrastructure available, extra-curricular/technical club opportunities, and internships and placements, these are some of the undergraduate courses that are considered best.
The courses include -
- Computer Science and Engineering,
- Electronics and Communication Engineering,
- Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and
- Electronics Engineering is considered better.
Keep in mind that you should always take the courses that are interesting to you.
Thus, if these courses don’t intrigue you, you can go for other courses as they will be better for you if you are interested in them.

Many students have gotten to know about their field of interest while studying in college. Hence, give some time to figure it out and then make a decision, as this will shape your career further.

If I have offer from both IIIT Bangalore and NIT Trichy for MTech CSE which will be a good option to choose?

Admin

If you have offers from all the mentioned institutes, then firstly I would like to congratulate you for achieving such a feat. Many students fail to get offers from any one of these institutes, and here you are sitting at the top of your game. Congratulations!

When it comes to choosing the best option among these three, I would suggest that you choose NIT Trichy. The reputation of NIT Trichy as one of the best NITs is by far one of the driving forces of students choosing this institution. The CSE department of NIT Trichy has a curriculum that has been developed to meet the industry needs of the students. You will get to learn multiple programming languages as well as be able to use them on multiple projects. You will be encouraged to develop new software. There are instances where students become entrepreneurs on the campus and pitch their projects and software to investors.
