Is a branch change to CSE possible at NIT Manipur? If yes, what is the process?

AS
Arnab Sarkar Posted On : June 28th, 2021
M.Tech at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2020)

Yes, like most other IITs and NITs it is possible to change your branch at NIT Manipur. My brother joined civil engineering at the institute but changed to CSE in the 2nd year, so I can tell you the exact process.

  • First, your CGPA after 1st year must be among the top two in your branch.
  • You should also not have any active backlog in the first year.
  • If there is a clash between the CGPA then the JEE MAIN ranks of the students are taken for the tiebreaker.

NIT Manipur offers the branch change option only to two students at the maximum.

Which one is better for CSE, NIT PATNA, IIIT Kalyani & IIIT Lucknow considering the last year placements of 40 lpa at Patna?

AM
Amrita Mehra Posted On : March 20th, 2021
B.Tech Engineering & Computer Science Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Patna (2019)

Someone else's package doesn't guarantee that you'll also bag the same package. Out of mentioned options, NIT Patna is a better option not because of the 40 lakh package. The placement package had been offered by Adobe which is said to recruit 2 ladies each offering 20 lakh packages to each. But in 2018, Adobe hired a female student offering her 40 LPA package, which can be true or even wrong information. However, you should not take admission in NIT Patna just because someone bagged a 40 Lakh package. The package will depend on your dedication during the course. It will help you easily earning a 6-8 LPA package.

While there is no doubt that NIT Patna is an old institution, yet it lacks some of the basic facilities such as hostels and open spaces. The campus is quite small as compared to other engineering colleges. So, it does not feel like a proper campus to some students as they have to spend 4 years there.
In the present time, a mega hostel is being constructed but it is outside the campus. The locality surrounding the campus is very unpleasant.The good thing is that the campus is located beside Ganga, having some modern and beautiful ghats. The management and staff are strict and less creative.

DD
Drishanu Dey Posted On : June 15th, 2021
B.E. Computer Science Engineering, Institute of Engineering and Technology, DAVV (2019)

IET-DAVV is one of the best among state-level engineering colleges in M.P. If we consider Indore and MANIT Bhopal as well, state-wise, the rank of IET-DAVV becomes 4th.

  • IET-DAVV offers the best placement offers to the CS branch. This isn't exclusive to IET-DAVV, as it goes for any engineering college around the country.
  • In recent years, students also scored well in CAT and GATE. But for coding, your company would stand out. There are people who scored 99 percentile in their CAT and for GATE.
  • If you are into coding, you will find some like-minded people on campus.
  • The infrastructure, administration, faculty strength are not that great but decent.
  • For CS, you can expect a CTC around 5-12 LPA. In 2020, the average CTC offered in the placement drive was 6 LPA.

In case you do not make it to the top 15 NITs, do not lose hope and go for IET-DAVV.

Campus:

All three institutes reside in the city of Bangalore; it will be a great opportunity for the locals as they have good options in picking up the college which provides exposure with people from across the country.

If we speak of universities outside Bangalore, then there are few colleges one can consider to move forward with where MIT Pune and KIIT Bhubaneswar are in the limelight. There isn't much to distinguish among the college infrastructure and fees. The crowd in both the universities comes from diligent areas as well as the faculty is well proficient in their respective fields.

Placements:

  • The placement offers of both these universities (PES and BES) are up to the mark, making no significant difference. The average CTC offered for a PES student is around 6.8 LPA.

  • Amazon, LT&T, Deloitte, Cisco, and Capgemini are the top recruits for PES Banglore. Microsoft, HP, and LG are the frequent recruiters of BMS Banglore. The other colleges on the list have mass recruiters like Infosys, Wipro, and TCS.

  • If looking for a calm environment, one can pick up KIIT over MIT; but as Pune does provide better opportunities than Bhubaneswar, MIT wins over.

With a lot of options in hand, it’s natural if a student gets confused picking up the perfect college. Well, it’s always the person who has to strive in the environment and thus have to make decisions accordingly.
