CSE BITs Hyderabad vs IIT Dhanbad?

BJ
Bharti Jaiswal Posted On : February 25th, 2021
BE Computer Science, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (2021)

Well, before answering this question, the heartiest gratitude to all the candidates who have cracked this toughest engineering entrance in India.

The main thing is that you must decide why do you want to join IIT. Is it only for the IIT tag, or you want to follow your passion?

The tagline of IIT is obviously important, but it works only if you are studious towards your dream. Otherwise, it becomes worthless as well as you will ruin the reputation of these institutes, that IIT.

Another important thing to be considered that if you are outstanding in CSE and gets the chance in IIT Dhanbad, then you will be to do more research, over-viewing the facts, like infrastructure and facilities of both of these institutes. However, BITs is generally better, and one of my friends was there for BITSAT 2017; the institute is really awesome.

Additionally, IIT Dhanbad is the old IITs, but it is still an IIT, and it gives the student a great height regarding their future career perspectives. It is properly funded still now and will be better in next year’s. But you should not expect a better life here than BITs Hyderabad. The main thing that should always be remembered is that good institutes always lead to a confident pathway, but you have to go alone in this pathway to fulfill your passion.

Thus, you must choose your branch first; after that, you can move forward.

Which is better for CS: IIIT Delhi or NIT Kurukshetra?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 7th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Although both IIITs and NITs have a similar brand image, I advise you to keep IIIT Delhi as your first preference. Here are two solid reasons why 

  • Better campus placements: Generally, Government colleges like IITs and NITs do not approach companies for placements like private colleges. So their placements are usually a result of their brand value and location. That being said, IIIT Delhi has an excellent location and therefore attracts many more companies than NIT Kurukshetra.
  • A good environment: The CS-tailored dynamic environment at IIIT Delhi helps improve your aptitude considerably. The crowd at both the colleges might be similar but IIIT Delhi definitely provides a much better exposure outside college. 

So the best option for CS is certainly IIIT Delhi.

Studied Computer Science at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Vadodara (2020)

Universities like PDPU, IIIT-Vadodara, DAIICT, NIRMA, are the best universities in the state. All four have their advantages and few flaws. To compare we must look at every available aspect for better results.

Ranking:

  • PDPU University is a member of AIU and is NAAC accredited with an 'A' grade & CGPA of 3.39 out of 4.0. It’s NIRF ranking is 55th and 1st in Gujarat.
  • DAIICT is Ranked 111 according to NIRF
  • Nirma University is ranked 136 according to NIRF

Admissions:

  PDPU:

  • For admission in B.Tech, one must secure 45% marks in Intermediate Examination with a valid score in GUJCET and JEE Main.
  • Last year cut off for GUJCET was Round 2 | rank 1489. For JEE Main it changes per year and according to university.
  • A total of 180 seats are available per course.
  • The course fee is almost 9.50 lakhs.

Nirma University:

  • For admission in B.Tech one must secure 45% marks in Intermediate Examination with a valid score in GUJCET and JEE Main.
  • Last year cut off for GUJCET was Round 2 | rank 524. For JEE Main it changes per year and according to university.

As these Universities are not very old, so the infrastructure is equivalent to a highly facilitated campus and mesmerizing space. Comparing the four according to these statistics, we can say IIIT-Vadodara may surpass all in a few years, but PDPU and DAIICT are not far behind. NIRMA University having larger diversity among all four is a little behind in technical courses.
