Is VIT Vellore better or BIT Mesra in terms of all aspects?

SS
Shridhar Sriraman Posted On : August 9th, 2023
Lives in Pondicherry, Puducherry, India

To be honest, BIT Mesra is the dream college of many while VIT Vellore is only considered a backup in case they don’t make it to the top colleges. BIT Mesra is the best private engineering college in India second only to BITS Pilani. Here are a few points that support my stance

  • A high number of students were selected for JEE Advanced.
  • Excellent infrastructure and campus facilities make the ambiance vibrant and comfortable.
  • The institute enjoys an excellent placement scenario. BIT Mesra's average package 2022 stood at INR 13.01 LPA while that at VIT Vellore stood at INR 8.19 LPA.
  • The admission to BIT Mesra is based on the merit of JEE Mains through JOSAA's counseling.
  • The institute has a record of having some of the best and most highly experienced faculty.

One of my friends had to choose between these two institutes and eventually went for BIT Mesra. He claimed that it had a better alum network, better placement records, better global recognition, and a coding culture. Now it’s up to you to make an informed decision!

Which one is better: DTU, NSIT or IIIT Delhi?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : July 7th, 2023

All the colleges you mentioned; NSIT, DTU, and IIIT Delhi are run by the NCT government and have similar opportunities and brand value. The choice of the institute here depends more on personal factors than the institute itself.

NSIT

  • NSIT is located in Dwarka. 
  • It functions under DU and offers a 4-year course for a bachelor of engineering. 
  • NSIT is an excellent choice for those who want to get IT-related branches like CSE, IT, and ECE. 
  • Most departments are at par with DTU departments 

DTU

  • DTU is a highly regarded technical institute offering superior quality BTech courses
  • This institute is well-known for core branches like CIVIL, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering. 
  • The most reputed branch of DTU is Mechanical Engineering, often compared to IIT Delhi Mechanical Engineering.

IIIT Delhi

  • IIIT Delhi is the perfect destination for programming lovers
  • The CSE curriculum of IIIT Delhi is way better than that of DTU and NSIT.

So, it precisely depends on the kind of branch you want to get if it’s all about programming go for IIIT Delhi, if it’s CSE, IT, or ECE go for NSIT but if it’s core branches like Mechanical, Electrical, or civil engineering DTU is the best option.

Which is better, IIIT Delhi or IIIT Allahabad?

RB
Ratrij Bose Posted On : July 7th, 2021
Studied at IIT Kharagpur (2019)

It's possible that IIIT Delhi is superior to IIIT Allahabad because of its prime location and excellent faculty and placement statistics.

  • IIIT Allahabad is also a National Institute of Importance, but IIIT Delhi is not.
  • The coding culture isn't even close to being equivalent; IIIT-D is far superior.
  • Professors at IIIT-D are generally PhDs from prominent universities throughout the world, therefore their experience and letters of recommendation are quite valuable.
  • Another plus for Delhi is that the research climate is excellent, especially for undergraduates.
  • Technically, neither has “100%” placements, but their placements are extremely similar overall—Delhi to Allahabad.
  • The differential in tuition prices is the most compelling reason to pick IIIT Allahabad over IIIT Delhi.

Which is better between MBA from IGNOU or Symbiosis distance?

AS
Aditri Sinha Posted On : May 25th, 2022
MBA Human Resources, Indira Gandhi National Open University

IGNOU is better for an MBA compared to Symbiosis distance. The course work is challenging. It’s not easy to clear papers unless you go through the study materials thoroughly. The curriculum is a bit old but it’s effective. 

If you are hard-working and have relevant work experience, you can get recruitment opportunities after doing your MBA. IGNOU MBA is even valid for PhD/Govt. jobs too.
