One of my friends had been a student of UIT- RGPV and here are the things that I got to know about the hostel facilities through him. 

• Recently, the college campus went through a renovation which made sure that the hostels and the guest rooms are well maintained and fully hygienic. 
• The college campus has numerous facilities for the students such as good internet connectivity, the students are able to enjoy all the basic necessities and the hostel facilities as well. 
• The campus has greenery around it, public transports such as rikshaw are easily available and the roads are well constructed. 
• The only thing you will miss there is the homely taste of food. As the mess is run by a private contractor, it isn’t that satisfying. 

Overall, you will enjoy the hostel life thoroughly at UIT RGPV. 

RGPV is a government college and because of this all of the courses which it offers are quite good to get a well-reputed job. IT or CSE will be the best option if you want good placements. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at UIT RGPV is 3 LPA.

Now, whether you will be able to prepare for UPSC, along with your engineering degree or not, that depends on you. 

• You can go for UPSC preparation whilst you are enrolled in IT. All of the possibilities depend on how motivated you are. 
• Moreover, if you try to finish learning your engineering courses on time, you will have ample duration to sit and study for UPSC.
• Furthermore, try to be with the group of students who are also preparing for UPSC so that you can be with them and prepare well with them. Studying with your peers will help you to achieve your goals easily. 
• Also, the syllabus for IT is quite easy so, you will have time to prepare for UPSEE. 

Thus, you can prepare for UPSC if you really want to, and choosing IT will make it easy for you to lower the burden of academics. 

Ujjain Engineering College (UEC) ranks 10th among the top engineering colleges by NIRF ranking. They have highly supportive ten faculty members who are always motivating the students in all aspects.

Tabulated below are the placement statistics of both institutions:

The top companies are Infosys, Wipro, TCS, Cognizant, Accenture, Capgemini, HCL, Tech Mahindra, ICICI Bank, Atos, etc. 

Campus life

• The hostels of both these provide all the basic amenities and consist of an accommodation of 200 students in each hostel.
• Both of these colleges have well-equipped laboratories and have a rich collection of books over different topics.
• The college has abundant facilities that can be availed by the students in all spheres of academic and nonacademic life.

Mechanical engineering is considered as one of the best in Madhya Pradesh. However, ECE has a phenomenal future in India, and so many students prefer it than mechanical engineering.

All the branches are good in UIT RGPV. As per some of the students, Automobiles and Petrochemical are not that good. 

The college does not have much campus life. The labs are not well developed. You should choose the branch in which you have an interest. You will only be successful if you know the branch well. Else there is no meaning in doing engineering. 

If you are looking for a good campus, then look for more colleges. However, if you are interested in CS or IT branches then you can choose UGIT as it is good here.

My brother recently graduated from UIT RGPV. Generally, you will have to pay a minimum of 2.5 lakhs, which includes test fees. If you're lucky enough to get a decent PET score, another alternative is TFNP, which doesn't require you to pay tuition and helps you to finish your degree in and around 1 lakh easily. 

The year-wise course fee is around 25,000. In the first year, college buses are compulsory so you have to pay around 8,000 - 10,000 for it. You also need to pay for the semester examination form fee which is around 1300. 

Both CSE and IT follows the same curriculum till 3rd year of college. You will only find a few different subjects in your final year. IT on a broad scale deals with the networking and security part. On the other hand, CSE is all about the development of software, applications, and programming.

However, it is suggested that you opt for IT at IET Lucknow instead of UIT (RGPV) CSE if you are concerned about the placement scenario. It is so because IET has better placement offers. Not only this but the overall structure and curriculum of IT are extremely good. Being an autonomous institution, IET Lucknow offers more benefits than the other institutions.

The average package offered to the CSE students at IET is around INR 4.5 Lakhs per annum as per the placement report of the institute in the year.
