Which is better, ECE in Pondicherry Engineering College or Biotech in Sastra?

SN
Shubham Nath Posted On : August 2nd, 2021
Studied at SASTRA University, Thanjavur

It depends on where you want to live and study. If you are comfortable staying in Pondicherry and are interested in ECE, go with PEC, which is one of India's oldest institutes.

On the other hand, SASTRA University is a more recent private prestigious university and it has great infrastructure facilities and placement record. BioTech in Sastra has IT placements with a lot of companies whereas ECE in PEC has good placement but is not that great.

The table shows a brief overview of the institution:

Particulars PEC SASTRA
Highest CTC 10 LPA 28.3 LPA
Average CTC 4 LPA 9.3 LPA
Fees 3.77 LPA 6.20 LPA

You can opt for PEC as its fee is lower than SASTRA. However, go for it only if you are getting a seat in ECE. If not, SASTRA can be considered as a final option.

Are class notes enough to secure at least a 9 GPA at Heritage Institute of Technology in the 1st year of ECE?

YJ
Yashpal Jain Posted On : September 6th, 2021
B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata (2021)

Yes, they are enough but only if you do not miss a single class, and are very serious about every assignment and internal mark.

Your professors and seniors would definitely suggest you the reference books and you should their advice. Everything is not about marks. You should have surplus knowledge about your subjects which brings completeness into the course. 

Due to time limitations, everything cannot be taught in the class. Also, engineering is beyond your semester syllabus.

CJ
Catherine Joshua Posted On : July 15th, 2021
Bachelor Of Technology Mining Engineering, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur

Yes, you can change your branch from metallurgy to ECE after the 1st year. At IIEST Shibpur only 20% of students in each branch are given that choice except the architecture branch. There are the following conditions for changing branches:

  1. You should not have past records of failure supplementary or re-admission.
  2. You should not have any record of disciplinary action in the college.
  3. Your dues should be clear to date.
  4. This scheme is restricted to 5% of the total seats available in the various branches.
  5. The reduction in the number of students in each branch should not go below 10% after the relocation.
  6. You should have a good CGPA in the last semester. It should be above 8.4 points in the metallurgical department.

Allocations are given on the basis of the above conditions and if there is a tie between two students then the tie is broken through the CGPA marks in physics, chemistry, and math. One who has the highest marks gets the seat.

Which is a better option, EEE at IIT Dharwad, EC at BITS Pilani Hyderabad campus, EnI at BITS Pilani campus or ISE at RVCE?

DS
Divya Saraf Posted On : July 13th, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

IIT Dharwad is a recently established institute that attracts fewer companies and has a small alumni pool. On the other hand, BITS Pilani has graduated more than 50 batches.

The best option would be to take ECE in BITS Hyderabad or ENI in BITS Pilani. The reason I am against you joining a new IIT is that these IITs are not well-known among big companies and some recruiters don’t even consider them worthy of visiting. They know that these IITs can never be at par with the old ones. So it’s better to look beyond the IIT tag and go for BITS Pilani, an excellent choice indeed!

Which is better, IIT Bhubaneswar for EE or IIIT Hyderabad for ECE?

GS
Gopal Sehdev Posted On : August 13th, 2020
B.Tech from International Institute of Information Technology Hyderabad (2020)

ECE and EEE, most of the syllabus is same and the subjects are considered as electrical core subjects like analog, digital electronics, signals, networks, etc. With courses being almost the same, the comparison comes down to other aspects of institutes. 

  • If you aim to get good placement packages after finishing your degree to work then you should opt EE in IIT Bhubaneswar. In 2019 placement 86% EE batch was employed. PSUs hire directly from IITs with the new mandate by the government which gives students in IIT to pursue a career in PSU without having to clear GATE. Although for ECE the placement of IIIT Hyderabad is higher (10 LPA) compared to IIT Bhubaneswar.

  • IIIT Hyderabad also provides great infrastructure and laboratories and have been very well funded for research papers. IITs get their funds from the Govt. and both institutes are on equal pace in this aspect.

  • Campus life can be one more aspect that students may find interesting while selecting the course and college. Academics in IIIT Hyderabad ECE is considered to be advantageous compared to IIT Bhubaneswar EE, because of IIT BBS is a new institute.

  • Faculty members at IIIT Hyderabad are also some of the highly eligible professors and some of them are from old IITs.

Overall, when comparing both courses and institutes, IIIT Hyderabad comes on top, but the choice should be branch instead of college when both have equal pros and cons.

Is an ECE at NIT Goa better than a CSE at Jamia Millia Islamia?

RB
Rita Banerjee Posted On : August 25th, 2021
Studied Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering at Jamia Millia Islamia (2020)

I have cousins from both NIT Goa, and Jamia Millia Islamia and as they mention, the latter is famous for its CSE course. Usually, students do not leave the opportunity to go for the CSE course of Jamia Millia Islamia.

  • CSE is comparably better than most of the other branches in the educational domain. 
  • CSE provides you job opportunities in accordance to what you have been exposed to, academically. 
  • On the other hand, ECE is undeniably a good choice of stream. 
  • For securing a good job position, you will have to pursue majoring in one of many programming languages or web development projects. 
  • This translates to studying for your course and also pursuing something extra for exposure. 
  • While CSE students are already part of studying these domains in general. 
  • ECE students usually also go for the GATE exam. 
  • However, the only upside ECE students enjoy is finding the slightest amount of vacancies in PSU, while CS students are somewhat one step lower than it. 
Categories ECE at NIT Goa CSE at Jamia Millia Islamia
Course Fee 5.38 lakh 64,600
Highest CTC 13 LPA 20 LPA
Average CTC 6.5 LPA 8-10 LPA
Recruiting Companies L&T, Microsoft, Siemens, Infosys, etc. TCS, Wipro, Adobe, Cognizant, etc.

Apart from these few, it depends upon how hard you work. Be it ECE or CSE, you have to work hard and utilize the time and opportunities you get while studying in college.

I am confused between NSIT Delhi (ECE) and MNNIT Allahabad (ECE) .What should I choose?

TA
Tejas Agarwal Posted On : March 28th, 2023
B.Tech in Computers, Delhi Technological University

If you are trying to compare two colleges, such as NSIT and DTU, it is recommended to choose the one that is closer to your place. This will make it easier for you to commute, save time, and avoid any unnecessary expenses related to travel and accommodation.

However, when it comes to comparing NSUT (NSIT) and MNNIT Allahabad, NSUT (NSIT) does have an advantage. NSUT (NSIT) is considered one of the top engineering colleges in India, known for its excellent infrastructure, faculty, and research facilities. It offers a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate programs in engineering, science, and technology.

On the other hand, MNNIT Allahabad is also a reputed engineering college but is located in a smaller city as compared to NSUT (NSIT). The city may not offer the same exposure and opportunities that Delhi can provide, especially in terms of internships, industrial visits, and campus placements.

Therefore, if you have the option to choose between NSUT (NSIT) and MNNIT Allahabad, it may be advisable to opt for NSUT (NSIT) if you are looking for a top-tier engineering college in a metropolitan city. However, this decision ultimately depends on your individual preferences and priorities, and you should weigh all the factors before making a final decision.

Which is better, VNIT Nagpur or IIIT Allahabad, for the ECE branch?

PK
Pallavi Kapoor Posted On : June 19th, 2021
Information Technology (IT) at VNIT Nagpur (2019)

One of my acquaintances has a better opinion on the same. He says that if you opt to take admission at IIIT Allahabad, then you are more likely to have better opportunities in the IT field.

  • Mostly, the students of ECE are thoroughly engaged in coding and are known to study ECE because of reasons that center around only graduating.
  • While, on the flip side, in VNIT Nagpur, the students pursue ECE because they are interested in it.
  • However, the placements of IT field are more likely to surpass the number of placements seen in ECE fields. This is because the core hardware companies relatively do not share the same amount of trust with the freshers.
  • If you want to obtain a better salary package after graduating from a B.Tech course, then going for IIIT, Allahabad can be a superior option.
  • While, if you relevantly want to pursue your career in most of the core ECE companies, then it is suggested that you opt for VNIT, Nagpur.

Yet, here is a brief data about the overall placement, course fees and more about both the institutes,

Intitutes

IIIT, Allahabad

VNIT, Nagpur

Course Fees (1st Year Fees)

1.65 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)

1.49 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)

Average CTC

INR 20.83 LPA

Rs 3.3 LPA

Highest CTC

INR. 43 LPA

INR. 22 LPA

Top Recruiters

Adobe, VISA, Paytm, Amazon, Flipkart, Arista Networks, Cisco Systems

ACC Limited, Amazon, Aarti Industries, Capgemini Technology Services Ltd., Goldman Sachs

However, in most cases, 10-15% of students choose ECE companies, but ever since software companies have become high-paying, several students tend to rather opt for an IT job profile.
