How is the sports situation in IIT Patna or IIT Bhubaneswar? How is the coding culture in these institutions?

Pranjal Bhargava Posted On : July 7th, 2023

Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Patna

Following are the highlights of both IIT Patna and IIT Bhubaneswar sports and coding activities:

Extracurricular Activities

IIT Patna offers students the opportunity to follow up on their passions, especially in sports. IIT Patna has allotted specific places to practice various sports, including cricket, volleyball, football, tennis, badminton, and table tennis.
IIT Patna Gymkhana was established as a student council of elected student representatives for the support and development of every student at IIT Patna.
IIT Bhubaneswar, on the other hand, gave students the opportunity to engage in sports like tennis, basketball, badminton, cricket, and football. But they do not encourage the students by conducting sports festivals. IIT Bhubaneshwar is comparatively weak in extra-curricular activities.

Coding Culture

IIT Patna is leading IIT Ropar, especially in the Department of Computer Science and Electronics. IIT Patna is renowned for its multiple qualifications for the ACM ICPC World Finals. This showcases the excellent coding culture at IIT Patna. Last year, IIT Patna conducted 14 GSOC selections, which are the most among the IITs established in 2008.
IIT Bhubaneshwar is not really good at coding. Students who are interested in coding opt for other colleges. Still, the programming society named ‘Neuromancers’ is quite active in the college.

So, you can go with the option of IIT Patna for better exposure.

Should an iM.Tech in IIIT Banglore be preferred over a B.Tech in IT in IIIT Allahabad?

Deeksha Seth Posted On : March 26th, 2021

Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2019)

iMTech is an integrated course offered at IIIT Bangalore which includes a 5-year BTech+ MTech program. It is not possible to compare a 4-year BTech course with a 5-year Integrated MTech course.

Particulars	IIIT Bangalore	IIIT Allahabad
Course	MTech. Integrated	BTech.
Total Fees	9.38 lacs	General- 5.85 lacs SC/ST- 1.27 lacs
Course duration	5 years	4 years
Placement	On campus	On campus

If you want to pursue MTech after BTech, iMTech at IIIT Bangalore is a great option as you will save a whole year. However, if you don’t want to pursue BTech, you should opt for IIIT Allahabad.
The course curriculum and faculty at IIIT B are excellent. On the other hand, at IIITA students are quite frustrated with their faculty.

Based on the above facts and the conversation I had with some of my friends and colleagues who are pass outs from IIITB and IIITA, I would advise you to choose IIIT Bangalore with closed eyes.

How is Sharda University, Noida for a B.Tech.?

Jaya Roy Posted On : July 27th, 2021

Studies ECE at NIT Warangal 2022

One of my friends is a student at Sharda University and does not recommend it at all, in terms of B.Tech. He further says that the only positive aspects of the institute are its faculty and infrastructure.

The negatives, however, are crucial to know about:

The students of Sharda University are not from the best environment. Most of them belong to affluent surroundings.
Unfortunately, there is a huge internal politics that mostly surfaces in the university. The faculties are usually divided into several groups, and there are clashes at almost every imaginable moment.
In addition to that, it has also obtained a very negative perception in the core academic world. Their brand has been widely recognized, but as my friend alleges, it does not live up to the expectations regarding the same. The value addition has surprisingly moved downhill over time.

The quality is not at all what was expected. You should mainly choose not to enroll at the university, especially if you have an unfavorable location constraint. If although you still face any, you might choose between Galgotia and Shiv Nadar since they are comparably better.

Is a B.Tech possible without a diploma in NERIST?

Riya Mathur Posted On : September 10th, 2021

B.Tech. from North Eastern Regional Institute of Science and Technology (2013)

Yes, B.Tech is possible without a diploma, after the new changes made by the NERIST curriculum. One of my friends studied there, and here’s what I got to know from him.

The institute has 3 different requirements for admission depending on the course. The NERIST entrance exams are: -

NEE: After secondary school (10th)
NEE 2: After the senior or the higher secondary 12th
NEE 3: After completing a 3-year course Diploma.

If you take admission on the basis of marks scored in 12th, then you will get a 4-degree. However, if you leave the college after 2 years, then you will be given a Diploma certificate.

Is Nirma University or UPES, Dehradun, better for a B.Tech?

Nikhil Juneja Posted On : July 29th, 2021

B.Tech in Civil Engineering from Nirma University (2017)

UPES Dehradun does not have a good enough reputation as it does not appear anywhere in the national rankings. On the other hand, Nirma University ranks among the top institutes. It is often in the top 50 best colleges in the country. It is one of the best in Gujarat and is also on equal footing with most of the NITs.

If you want to pursue CSE at Nirma University, the placements offers will be lucrative. The packages can go as high as INR 18 LPA. There are also tons of activities organized by the university which take place every now and then. You can participate in those for honing your skills.

A friend of mine used to be a student of Nirma University and he came across a few students of UPES Dehradun while he was doing an internship. From what he gathered, he thinks the institute is not up to the mark and leaves a lot to be desired. UPES Dehradun focuses more on technological knowledge.

You can opt for Nirma University for B.Tech without any second thought. The university offers great industrial exposure for the course.

Is a B.Tech degree from KSOU acceptable to foreign universities for an MS?

Vishal Sharma, Posted On : October 27th, 2021

studied at University of Mumbai (2017)

Yes, a B.Tech degree from Karnataka State Open University (KSOU) is acceptable to foreign universities. As KSOU is recognized by UGC and the degree is valid for applying to foreign universities.

But, various countries have different rules and regulations, criteria, etc. for the recognition of universities. Most of the popular foreign universities have certain standards. Therefore, your statement of purpose, your academic record, your age, financial status, etc. will play an important role in the final admission.

What should I choose between IIT Patna, IIT Indore, and IIT Bhubaneswar for CSE branch?

Arjuna Sethi Posted On : August 13th, 2020

M.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar (2019)

All mentioned institutes were founded in the year 2008 except IIT Indore which was founded one year later in 2009. Reputed companies such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Samsung, Cognizant, Amazon, Cisco offer jobs to students of these institutions.

The CSE branch at IIT Indore is comparable to the CSE branch of older IITs. Also, it is the highest recruiting branch at IIT Indore with more than 98% of students were placed in 2019. An average package of 16.06 LPA and the highest package of 43 LPA was received in the year 2019. IIT Patna recorded 100% placement for the CSE branch with an average package of 16.76 LPA. The highest package received was around 40 LPA (on-campus). Similarly, 100% placement was recorded in the CSE branch of IIT Bhubaneswar with an average package of 11.44 LPA. The highest domestic CTC offered was 39 LPA in the year 2019.

Apart from placements, CSE department of IIT Indore has 15 research laboratories such as AI (artificial intelligence), Computer Networks, Soft Computing, Database, and Information system. The coding environment of IIT Indore is very good. That is why its CSE department has ranked 4th in all over India. IIT Patna also has a Software lab, Network security lab, Advance lab, and Hardware lab. Among new IITs, IIT Indore and IIT Patna have come a long way in CSE branch. The CSE department of IIT Bhubaneswar is also equipped with research laboratories such as Systems Laboratory, Algorithms Laboratory, Computer Architecture Laboratory, Digital Signal Processing and Embedded Systems Laboratory. The department also offers specialized elective courses such as Software reliability, Artificial Intelligence.

IIT Indore has an edge over these institutions for CSE. But which IIT you should choose is entirely up to you so make the decision according to your convenience.
