Which is better: GRIET, CVR, MGIT?

VG
Vaishali Gupta Posted On : May 5th, 2021
B.Tech Information Technology, CVR College of Engineering, Hyderabad, graduated 2019

Every college is unique and different in its own way. I think it’s a bad idea to make a comparison among colleges. The college in which you study does not matter much if you are passionate about pursuing your interests and goals. Every college has its own way of standing out.

Some of the pros of CVR are:

  • CVR’s infrastructure is well up to the mark. Every department has the required number of labs, including computer labs as well. CVR also boasts of Apple labs.
  • Through technical and cultural fests, hackathons, competitions, contests, and projects students are given multiple opportunities to show their talents and prowess. They can also be effective learning experiences.
  • CVR boasts of amazing placements too. The placement office expects manners, the attitude of learning, and sincerity. The placement training officer of the college will try everything to get you placed.
  • The CVR is an autonomous college and is affiliated with JNTU. The schedule is informed in the beginning of the session. You will appear for two midterms before appearing for the final exams every semester.

Apart from the academics, there are clubs for management, techno-management, art, music etc. So, if you are curious, you can obviously check out some of these fields. The alumni are very helpful so they will always be available for any assistance.

Advantages:

Overall, JNTUK is an average institute but not a great one.

I am a recent IIT Delhi grad and have competing offers from Google India and Uber India. Which one should I join?

AS
Ashmita Sinha Posted On : April 3rd, 2023
Masters from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

I would rather recommend you go for Uber than join Google (India). A few reasons that justify my opinion are

  • Uber offers a better pay scale than Google India
  • The work culture and nature at Uber are rather stimulating and will always challenge your abilities
  • You can move to bigger companies after gaining experience at Uber but the opposite won't be likely possible.
  • Employees at Google India are always leaving either for the US or higher studies and the stability of the job is very low.
  • The work environment at Uber is demanding, and exhilarating, posing new challenges every day making it a dynamic one

Basically, the work environment at Google is more stable and monotonous without many challenges which are suitable after you attain a certain age and maturity. Till then you are open to challenges that can be sought at dynamic companies like Uber that will help you grow better.

Why do people choose NITIE over IITs and PSUs?

PS
Pallak Shukla Posted On : August 13th, 2021
PGDIE from National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2019)

One of the main reasons why NITIE is preferred over IITs and PSUs is that it provides placement at a higher package than any PSU.

  • The placements for PGDIE at NITIE is better than M.Tech Design (Mechanical) at IITB. 
  • Though IITB is a huge brand in its own right, its M.Tech is not as lucrative as its B.Tech. 
  • However, if one is interested in research, this is a different thing. Otherwise, NITIE has a significant advantage in this regard. 
  • Furthermore, the average packages are comparable to those offered by any Maharatna PSU.
  • Secondly, having a degree from NITIE is always advantageous for growth in the private sector.
  • Third, NITIE has a large alumni base, which provides numerous opportunities and placement in large MNCs.

In the case of IITB, if the branch in question is CS, M.Tech is unquestionably superior, given the tremendous growth expected in this sector in the coming years.
