Which is the best for a CS: IIITD, NSIT or MNNIT Allahabad?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : November 30th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Colleges like NSUT and MNNIT Allahabad have a legacy built over many years. IIIT Delhi will take some time to catch up to the reputation of these colleges.

Regardless, I have tried to rank the three on several parameters, for their CS (CoE) program-

  • Coding Culture- NSUT has the best coding culture, followed by MNNIT.
  • Curriculum- IIITD has the best curriculum, followed by MNNIT.
  • Research and Higher Studies- IIITD offers the best research prospects, followed by NSUT.
  • Fests and Clubs- NSUT offers the best fests and clubs, followed by IIITD.
  • Infrastructure and facilities- NSUT has the best infrastructure among the three, while MNNIT lags far behind the other two.
  • Peer performance- NSUT has the best peer performance, followed by IIITD.
  • Faculty-IIITD has the best faculty, while MNNIT and NSUT are at par.
  • Alumni Network- MNNIT has a slightly better alumni network than NSUT, while IIITD lags far behind the other two.

Regardless of whichever college you choose for your CS (CoE), your success will come from your own efforts. By studying diligently and polishing your skills, you will land a well paying job, regardless of your graduation college.

Which one to join, Bangalore Institute of Technology OR Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering?

AS
Avinash Sharma Posted On : March 18th, 2022
studied at Bangalore Institute of Technology

Bangalore Institute of Technology will be better in terms of placements. It doesn’t necessarily mean that DSCE offers bad placements, but it's not as good as BIT. According to the recent placement highlights, the average CTC for the institute is around INR 6-8 LPA. 

BIT Bangalore fees are also less compared to DSCE. A BE program from BIT costs around INR 2.35 lakhs. But DSCE offers a better campus life.

Which is better, Doon business school or UPES Dehradun for an MBA?

MS
Mohit Sharma Posted On : March 14th, 2023
MBA at UPES, Dehradun (2019)

When considering which school to choose, it's important to compare your options. When it comes to choosing between UPES and other schools, there really is no comparison. UPES is hands down the better option.

If you are looking for a school that provides better internships, certifications, and industry-recognized degrees, then you should definitely consider the College of Management & Economics Studies at UPES. Their MBAs are tailored to specific domains, so you'll be able to focus on what you're truly interested in.

UPES also boasts a placement rate of around 95%, which is a great indicator of the school's success in helping students land jobs after graduation. Students who are serious about their studies have landed positions at top companies like Crisil, KPMG, and Amazon, with salaries that often exceed those offered by IIMs.

While UPES may not be in the same league as top private schools, it is still a better option than schools like ICFAI or DBS. In terms of return on investment, most students will likely find that UPES is a better choice. If you have the funds and are able to clear the entrance procedures, then UPES should be your top choice.

Which college is better for BBA course Loyola College or Madras Christian College?

SM
Subhashree Mukharjee Posted On : October 4th, 2021
B.Sc. Physics,Loyola College,Chennai

There is not much difference when we talk about the course and the subjects but the environment is significantly different for both. Here are some things that you should know about the institutes. 

Freedom- MCC offers a lot of freedom to its students in the way they dress and express themselves as compared to Loyola. Even for attendance, it is not as strict as Loyola. Loyola asks its students to pay for condonation and then sit for an exam. 

Ragging- It is still very much prevalent at MCC and sometimes it crosses the healthy limit as well. On the other hand, ragging is very rare at Loyola.

Drug scene- MCC is infamous for its drug-related incidents. While enrolling their children, parents are quite worried about this. On the other hand, Loyola does not have such a problem.

Campus- Both the campuses are extremely beautiful with an amazing experience of studying in the college.

College life- When it comes to cultural and extracurricular activities, MCC is more active as compared to Loyola. They conduct a lot of fests and different events which offer its students a lot of opportunities.

Here is a brief overview of the institutes. 

Category Loyola MCC
Companies Visited MRF, Infosys, TCS, etc. Deloitte, TCS, Wipro, etc.
Average CTC  3.5 lakh 2.31 lakh
Highest CTC 5.2 lakh 3.5 lakh

Therefore, it depends completely on what you want out of your college. If you want a good college life then you should opt for MCC. But if you want good academics then you should opt for Loyola. MCC has a diversified culture whereas Loyola has students mostly from Chennai.

Which is better, VIT or Thapar University?

PJ
Priyanka Joshi Posted On : August 11th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (2021)

Since I have friends from both VIT and Thapar, I think I can answer this.

Thapar University:

  • Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology is an esteemed institute and among the best institutions in the country. It is considered among the best innovation-driven private universities and technical institutes in the country. After BITS Pilani, it has been ranked as the best private institute.
  • The admissions here are based on JEE score.
  • There is no management quota at Thapar.
  • The placement opportunities at Thapar University are tremendous. The average package at Thapar ranges around 6.7 LPA.
  • The faculties at Thapar are great. You will get to learn both practical and theoretical aspects of subjects. The students are exposed to various internship opportunities as well.

VIT:

VIT Vellore is yet to be at par with Thapar University. Since VIT takes in a huge number of students, the placement quality is declining over the years. The average package at VIT is around 2-3 LPA.

Unless VIT Vellore is closest to your place do not opt for it. Thapar University is better in comparison to VIT Vellore. Hence, go for TU without any hesitation.

How good is placement at ISB, Hyderabad compared to IIMs (since number of students are much more in ISB, leading to tough competition)?

KA
Kumar Anshul Posted On : January 30th, 2023
PGP from Indian School of Business (2023)

When comparing the placements of the two, ISB and IIMs, the batch size hardly matters because both institutes market different products. The background and profiles of students of both institutes are too versatile to draw comparisons. If I roughly divide the ISB students and the kind of placement scenario they face then

  • 90% of students get their dream jobs in the desired sector and company 
  • 10% of the students get jobs that are below their expectations but not worse enough to forgo the offers

So the batch size does not matter here and ISB Hyderabad placements are themselves quite satisfactory.

Lives in Ahmedabad

I have friends in all the aforementioned colleges and thus am writing this answer based on collective experiences only. From the reviews of their respective colleges, I arrived at the conclusion that IIIT Sonepat is the best option among all these. 

IIIT Sonepat fairs are better than the aforementioned institutes in terms of infrastructure, placement fees, etc. Here are a few strong reasons to choose IIIT Sonepat

  • Sonepat enjoys a good location advantage being located just half an hour away from Delhi.
  • Located near DU IIT Delhi and other institutes, you can easily enjoy their fests.
  • IIIT Sonepat is located in Delhi,  the educational hub so it offers better coaching opportunities.
  • IIIT Sonepat has an excellent growth rate in comparison to other IIIT's.

Moreover, judging by my friends' experiences, the preference order I can up with is

IIIT Sonepat>>>>IIIT Surat >IIIT Vadodara>IIIT Kurnool

Is IIEST Shibpur better than NIT Trichy?

TH
Tilottama Hazra Posted On : February 23rd, 2021
B.Tech-M.Tech Dual Degree Electrical Engineering, IIEST, Shibpur (2020)

IIEST Shibpur might have the edge over NIT Trichy in terms of research. However, the same cannot be said with certainty in terms of academics. In case of academics, NIT Trichy may be ahead of IIEST Shibpur.

In terms of placements, NIT Trichy is way ahead of IIEST Shibpur. It also gets the upper hand in case of the students. As the research in NIT Trichy is superior compared to IIEST Shibpur, the faculty of the former is also superior to the latter.

However, IIEST Shibpur is often ranked in magazines like Outlook, Mint, EduRand owing to its research and other collaborations. BESU, even being a state government institute, was facing problems in its funding. After its conversion to IIEST, things took a turn for the better. It is the second oldest institute for engineering in the country and the alumni are also pretty renowned. In terms of infrastructure as well, NIT Trichy has the upper hand over IIEST Shibpur.

Which is the better branch between mechanical engineering and chemical engineering in MNNIT Allahabad?

SA
Shibu Ahuja Posted On : November 28th, 2023
Studied at Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, Allahabad

I am a student of B.Tech Chemical at MNNIT Allahabad. Here is some information to help you arrive at a conclusion-

  • Placements- Chemical has better placements. Its batch strength is almost one third that of Mechanical. Moreover, a good number of companies visit the Chemical department with job offers. The average package for Chemical and Mechanical is 10 LPA and 7 LPA respectively. In recent years, the Chemical department has attained 100% placements, while Mechanical receives around 80% placements.
  • ESE- For Engineering Services (IES), you’ll have to choose Mechanical Engineering as Chemical students can not give ESE.
  • GATE- Both Chemical and Mechanical are equally good for public sector jobs/ M.Tech/ Phd. The competition is much higher in Mechanical, but the number of vacancies in PSUs through GATE is also higher for it. 

The GATE syllabus for Chemical is comparatively smaller.

  • ISRO/ BARC/ DRDO- Both the branches carry equal opportunities in these areas.
  • PSU through campus- Branch toppers are selected by PSUs for placements. The selections are made on resume based shortlisting, GD and interview. Companies like BPCL, GAIL and IOCL visit the campus for recruitments. Sometimes GAIL does not allow Mechanical students to sit for placements. Thus, Chemical students have better chances of placement in PSUs. The smaller batch strength of Chemical is a big aid in placements. 

Both the branches are good in their own way. You should select the one that suits your goals and future plans.
