How is NIT-Jalandhar for CSE now?

DV
Dishant Verma Posted On : January 2nd, 2023
Lived in Jalandhar, India (1998–2017)

NIT Jalandhar is a reputable university. Not particularly extraordinary or so. It's just a quiet campus with standard instruction where CSE graduates have a good placement rate. It gradually lost its allure. It used to be one of the best NITs, but lately, it has declined.

However, it is still a very good college, with CSE, in particular, being a particularly lovely and developed branch.

Which is the better option; doing computer engineering at SVNIT-Surat, Gujarat or b.tech in ict at DA-IICT Gandhinagar, Gujarat?

Jatin Shaha Posted On : January 3rd, 2024
Lives in Surat

I am a resident of Surat, and SVNIT is very close to my house. During my college admissions, I was in the same dilemma. So I spent about a week at both the colleges to make a more informed choice.

One of the professors at SVNIT suggested that I opt for B.Tech ICT at DAIICT over Computer Engineering at SVNIT. He told me that DAIICT is a better option for computer related branches. Here are some pros of joining DAIICT as a B.Tech ICT student-

  1. The placements at DAIICT are comparatively better.
  2. Though the NITs have an established brand name, the reputation of DAIICT is better than SVNIT in top companies like Amazon, Morgan Stanley, MAQ, etc.
  3. It has a greater number of GSoC qualifiers, and a better environment for Open Source Coding.
  4. The environment is superior for competitive coding as well, and students participate in great numbers in online programming contests on platforms like codeforces, etc.
  5. A large number of students prepare for exams like GRE, CAT, etc.

Thus, a B.Tech ICT at DAIICT is better in comparison to Computer Engineering at SVNIT.

According to my friends at DAIICT, it is definitely a better choice among the two. Considering factors like placement, brand reputation, and coding culture. 

The points below give a brief overview of some of the advantages of choosing DAIICT over SVNIT.

  • According to some professors of SVNIT itself, DAIICT is a better institute for CSE and IT, compared to SVNIT.
  • The overall placement statistics of DAIICT are far better than that in SVNIT, with more high-paying jobs offered in the institute. 
  • DAIICT doesn’t have as good a reputation as NITs in India. But, in companies like Amazon, MAQ, Morgan Stanley, etc, DAIICT has a far better reputation than SVNIT.
  • There is an excellent open-source coding environment in DAIICT. 
  • The number of GSoC entries from both institutes makes it evident that DAIICT has much more success in open-source contribution.

Therefore, it is clear that DAIICT is a much better choice, especially in subjects like CS and IT. In DAIICT, there is a high exposure in higher studies among students. There is a good environment for competitive coding too in DAIICT. In every notable coding contest from platforms like Codeforces, Codechef, etc, there are at least 30-40 participants from DAIICT.

What is better: EEE at BITS Hyderabad or CS at VIT Vellore?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : December 22nd, 2023
BITS(Goa)

As a former EEE student at BITS Goa, I would not recommend taking up EEE at BITS Hyderabad if you want a career in the field of software engineering. 

Here are the reasons why-

  1. The coding involved in EEE is not enough. You’ll code in MATLAB, which is rarely used in the IT sector. You’ll have to devote extra time to learning Python, Java, and other languages. 
  2. CS involves much more than coding, all of which you’ll miss out on.
  3. Elective courses like OS, DSA, Comp Arch have very limited seats, and not everyone gets to pick them. Also, you’ll get these courses by your third or fourth year. By then you’ll either be under too much pressure to complete your main syllabus or it’ll be too late because the placement season will have begun.
  4. Top IT companies don’t open for non CS candidates, and even for the companies that do, you’ll have to compete with CS students.
  5. BITS will give you all the necessary exposure, quality education and opportunities. However, as a non IT student you’ll still find difficulty in getting an IT job via campus placements.

Based on all these points, I would recommend choosing CSE at VIT for better job prospects in the IT sector.

Should I opt for CSE in IIT Gandhinagar?

YA
Yash Arora Posted On : July 15th, 2023
IIM Bangalore | IIT Gandhinagar

IIT Gandhinagar CSE is a well-regarded program and despite being newly launched it has gained popularity in a short time period. This in itself is a testament to the quality of education offered here. The institute fairs well in almost all aspects be it faculty, opportunities, internships, and projects, etc. 

The new IITs have their own weaknesses and strengths. Even the departments within an institute are not at the same level. The CSE department of IIT Gandhinagar is certainly superior among other branches of the institute and the institute itself is better than other new IITs.  The professors here have high qualifications and a strong research profile. 

In all, you should certainly join CAE at IIT Gandhinagar if you want to experience a good campus life, with locational advantages, and excellent placements.

Which is a better choice at NIT Silchar, Mechanical or CSE?

LC
Lipika Chakraborty Posted On : August 25th, 2023
B.tech from National Institute of Technology Silchar (2020)

Most students, freshly out of school, try to choose an Engineering branch for themselves. You might be someone who has a deep passion for either Mechanical or CSE. In that case, I would advise you to follow your heart. 

But if you think not opting for CSE is a bad decision, just ask yourself why you would consider CSE. Is it because you did some coding in your school days and wish to enter into that field, or simply because CSE is popular. Don’t be in the illusion of liking a branch just because everyone is recommending it. Also, don’t go for any branch solely because it has better placements than the other. As long as you enjoy a particular field, you will get good offers.

NIT Silchar

Mechanical is a good branch at NIT Silchar. Moreover, as research has become increasingly interdisciplinary in nature, various departments collaborate with one another these days. Even Mechanical has a good involvement of CSE- Robotics, CFD, etc. all involve high level coding and the knowledge of Data Structures. Because today most campuses witness IT placements more than core profiles, I would highly recommend you consult the alumni of Mechanical to figure out what placements are like in ground reality.

These are the 2022 placement stats for both the branches at NIT Silchar-

Also, NIT Silchar offers a branch change after the 2nd semester. This is based on your performance in the first two semesters. In case you feel dissatisfied with your choice, you can opt for branch change as well. 

For your first year (whichever branch you choose) maintain good grades, talk to your seniors and explore your stream.

How hard is it to get into NIT Trichy and get CSE? How hard did you study?

TR
Tirtha Ray Posted On : August 31st, 2021
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2021)

NIT Trichy is a really good college when it comes to most NITs. But, you will only get admission through JEE Main. You will definitely have to score well if you plan to secure admission here. 

  • About 90% of the entire paper is quite easy to solve at home but you will have to develop skills to be able to solve the paper quickly and efficiently. 
  • See how well you can do with MCQs along with your boards’ preparation. 
  • Develop your accuracy, for example, if you solve 30 questions, ensure that 18 of them are correct at least even if you end up attempting only 22 of them.
  • As far as CSE or any good core branch is concerned, NITs are relatively easier to get into as compared to IITs. 

The cut-offs for NIT Trichy in CSE are as follows:

Categories Male Female
Home State Other state Home State Other state
General 5235 1373 4075 2371
SC 1300 138 1435 420
OBC 2165 357 4085 1060
EWS 2068 165 2489 305

You will have to do your best and strive a little hard in order to secure your seat. Getting into core branches is quite tough especially for branches like ECE and mechanical. As long as you meet the above cut-offs, you should be good to go. Analyze your paper well, set a dedicated schedule and at the end, you will surely be able to crack the JEE.

Regarding your question on whether or not to choose BIT Mesra for your CSE, I would say that the CSE course at BIT Mesra is quite good. Here are a few colleges for CSE that are superior to BIT Mesra according to me- NIT Trichy, NIT Warangal, NIT Surathkal, NIT Calicut, NIT Rourkela, NIT Allahabad, and MNIT Jaipur. 

As far as placements are concerned, they are top notch for the CSE branch at BIT Mesra. During the 2022 placements, 113 out of 124 eligible students were placed. The lowest package stood at INR 4 LPA, the average package at INR 19.27 LPA and the highest package at INR 58.33 LPA. The median package was recorded at INR 16 LPA. The companies that visited the BIT Mesra campus for CSE placements were- Micorosoft, Wells Fargo, Walmart, GS, Paytm, Vmware, KPMG, Oracle, MMT, Atlassian, Lowe’s, Whitehat Jr., JF, among others. Media.net, Amazon, Disney, Indeed, Google, American Express, etc. visited the campus after September. 

For the IT branch at BIT Mesra, the companies that offered placements were- Amazon, Microsoft, Mindtickle, JF, GS, Paytm, DE Shaw, Whitehat Jr., Walmart, Atlassian, SWYM, Oracle, KPMG, Vmware, etc. In IT, 56 out of 59 eligible students were placed. The average salary stood at INR 20.58 LPA. The highest, median and lowest package was the same as that for CSE.

Basically, if you do not get a top NIT for your CSE, you should choose BIT Mesra. It has good placements for this course.
