Which college is better for electrical engineering MNNIT Allahabad or NIT Rourkela?

AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : August 16th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

Based on NIRF rankings, both NIT Rourkela and MNNIT Allahabad are among the top 5 NITs. Apart from a massive campus, NIT Rourkela has nothing else to boast of in terms of academics or job opportunities. That being said, the Electrical Engineering department at MNNIT Allahabad is great both in terms of quality of education as well as placements. It's hard to find good faculties in any of the NITs these days but MNNIT Allahabad seems to have better than most NITs. Their excellence is reflected in the performances of the students in GATE.

Additionally, MNNIT Allahabad gives equal importance to extracurricular activities, fests, and sports to ensure the overall grooming of the students. Another perk of joining MNNIT Allahabad is its excellent connectivity owing to the variety of trains running to and fro.

Like any other institute the food served is average and students might feel difficult to adapt to college life initially but once you have spent a few weeks, you will get adapted to the culture soon

Which is better, IIT Guwahati for CSE or IIT Delhi for EE?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : May 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Although both programs are good, I would still recommend IIT Delhi EE over IIT Guwahati CSE. Here are a few reasons that support my recommendation 

  • Better job opportunities: The EE department covers various CSE courses making its students eligible to sit for all CSE companies for placements. These companies include Microsoft, Tower Research, Goldman Sachs, etc. Additionally, the students also have the advantage of offers from core EE companies like Nvidia, Intel, and AMD.
  • Great location: Due to its prime location, IIT Delhi is close to many places to explore in Delhi. Some of these are Connaught Place, Khan Market, HKV and the list goes on. Delhi also has better transportation and connectivity than Guwahati. Plus, Delhi has better transport connectivity and is way easier to reach than Guwahati.
  • College Fests: Rendezvous, IIT Delhi's annual cultural fest is the biggest of its kind in North India. There is also Tryst, the tech fest, and Sportech, the sports fest.
  • Amazing startup culture: IIT Delhi is known for its highly encouraging startup culture. Out of the 30 unicorns founded by Indians in the last few years, 15 of them were founded by IIT Delhi Alumni. IIT Delhi helps you with finding, ideas and the necessary resources for startup. 
  • Branch change: While branch change might be difficult in other IITs, IIT Delhi has an easy branch-changing policy with over 100 students changing their branches every year.

Hence, IIT Delhi EE is a better option than IIT Guwahati CSE.
