Which is the best NIT for an MTech in CSE, NIT Patna, NIT Goa, NIT Agartala, NIT Hamirpur, NIT Jaipur or NIT Manipur?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 13th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

I will always suggest you give preference to the branch over the college. NIT Jalandhar and NIT Raipur are better colleges for CSE than NIT Patna and NIT Silchar. Another good option is ECE at NIT Allahabad or NIT Calicut as most of the companies let ECE students sit for software engineering roles during placements.

I am strongly against you joining mechanical engineering if you are already getting CSE/IT/ECE at NITs. Ultimately, it’s your preferences that will help choose the best college!

IIT Bhubaneswar or NIT Rourkela which one should choose for a Geology Master's?

SB

Studied at National Institute of Technology, Rourkela

NIT Rourkela is better for a Masters in Geology. It offers better facilities. Geology department has well-equipped labs with latest technologies. The campus has an active research environment. There is cutting-edge ongoing research in the field of Earth and Atmospheric Science. 

Although NIT Rourkela is the better option in terms of academics and research culture, IIT Bhubaneswar has a locational advantage. Due to this advantage, it's easier to get projects and placement opportunities.

Is joining new IIMs (Ranchi, Trichy, Udaipur) worth it? How will be the career growth after an MBA from new ones?

AB
Arvind Balakrishnan Posted On : January 13th, 2023
99.22 CAT'16, PGPM at MDI Gurgaon

The career growth offered by the new IIMs is difficult to analyze as they haven’t been established for long. One cannot infer their worth easily as its alumni are yet to establish themselves in the corporate world. It will take a few more years to determine the growth of CEO alums career-wise.

If you are concerned about the general job prospects, try going through the placement reports of these IIMs. You will get a general idea of the packages and roles offered.

To know if the new IIMs are worth going for, you need to check what you are expecting from these B Schools. If you are looking for basic learning and a small push to kickstart your career, the new IIMs will benefit you. But if you are on the lookout for high ROI, the new IIMs may or may not satisfy your expectations.

Should I choose NIT Calicut CS or BITS Hyderabad EEE?

SG
Sreyasi Gupta Posted On : August 25th, 2021
Studying at NIT Calicut (2022)

In comparison to BITS Hyderabad’s EEE, NIT Calicut’s CSE, the latter would be considered a better option. However, it is entirely up to you whether you want to pursue IT jobs or electrical hardware jobs. 

  • The NIT Calicut CSE batch had a 100% placement record. 
  • They were offered the highest salary package of 40 LPA.
  • The department of computer science is regarded as one of the best in the institute. 
  • Many well reputed companies such as Direct I, Morgan Stanley and over a hundred other multinational corporations (MNCs) come to campus for recruitment. 
  • When it comes to the overall development of a student NIT Calicut provides a plethora of opportunities during the tech fest TATHVA and the cultural fest RAGAM.

Tabulated difference between NIT Calicut CSE or BITS Hyderabad EEE are:

Categories CSE from NIT Calicut EEE from BITS Hyderabad
Total course fee 5.42 lakhs 19.9 lakhs
Top recruiters ABB, Amadeus, Amdocs, Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, Capgemini Adobe, Amazon, Axis Bank , Capgemini, CGI Information Systems and Management Consultants, Cisco System
Highest salary package 36 LPA 45 LPA
Average Salary Package 15 LPA 12 LPA

As I am not much familiar with BITS Hyderabad, I am not able to share details about the college. I had some of my friends graduating from NIT Calicut so I was able to share these details. Therefore, I believe CSE from NIT Calicut is the better option. You can interact with ex-students of BITS Hyderabad to get a proper overview of the college.

JIMS (Jagan Institute of Management Studies)has good visiting faculties from SRCC, LSR and other DU reputed colleges. The syllabus pedagogy is up to date with industry standards but suffers from lack of industry exposure.

The curriculum followed is inspired by reputed institutes around the world like Stanford, Wharton etc. Excellent in campus hostel facilities and a mentorship program for new joiners into the institute. It is popular for its offering in marketing roles and faculties in the marketing and sales domain.

IMS Ghaziabad consists of Atal Incubation centre to encourage entrepreneurship and business-minded individuals to start their own firms. There are smart classrooms, and the campus is WiFi enabled. The faculties are highly qualified and knowledgeable.

What should be preferred, CS at Thapar Patiala or Electrical Engineering at PEC Chandigarh?

SC
Sakshi Chaudhary Posted On : July 19th, 2021
Studied at PEC Chandigarh (2019)

As these are two distinct branches of engineering, you should pursue a topic that piques your interest.

  • CS is primarily concerned with software, whereas EE is more concerned with hardware.
  • Fees may be high, but consider it an investment because if you learn and perform well, your first year's salary will pay for four years of education and beyond.
  • However, listen to your heart and natural instincts.
  • A CS graduate has more demand than an Electrical graduate. This is due to the rapid and constant growth of the corporate world.
  • Electrical Engineering students can also sit for placements of both core and IT firms.
Categories CS at Thapar Patiala Electrical at PEC Chandigarh
Course Fee 13.23 lakh 6.39 lakh
Highest CTC 20 LPA 8-10 LPA
Average CTC 11 LPA 6 LPA
Recruiting Companies Wipro, Infosys, TCS, IBM, etc. Phillips, L&T, JP Morgan, TCS, etc.

It all depends on what you're interested in. If you are interested in CS, then choose Thapar (if fees are not an issue) or electrical in PEC Chandigarh.

Which is a better option, EEE at IIT Dharwad, EC at BITS Pilani Hyderabad campus, EnI at BITS Pilani campus or ISE at RVCE?

DS
Divya Saraf Posted On : July 13th, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

IIT Dharwad is a recently established institute that attracts fewer companies and has a small alumni pool. On the other hand, BITS Pilani has graduated more than 50 batches.

The best option would be to take ECE in BITS Hyderabad or ENI in BITS Pilani. The reason I am against you joining a new IIT is that these IITs are not well-known among big companies and some recruiters don’t even consider them worthy of visiting. They know that these IITs can never be at par with the old ones. So it’s better to look beyond the IIT tag and go for BITS Pilani, an excellent choice indeed!

Which is better CE at NIT Trichy or Mech. at MNNIT, Allahabad?

KC
Khushi Chitra Posted On : July 2nd, 2021
B.Com at Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, Delhi University (2019)

Some of my friends studied at MNNIT, so I might be able to answer your question. It is suggested that you choose Mechanical at MNNIT Allahabad rather than Civil at NIT Trichy.

Your branch of choice is more important than your college preference. In terms of opportunities, Mechanical Engineering has a slight advantage over Civil Engineering

Mechanical at MNNIT Allahabad has a consistent placement record. Mechanical students receive more job offers than Civil Engineering graduates. PSUs often choose Mechanical Engineering graduates.

Categories Civil at NIT Trichy Mechanical at MNNIT Allahabad
Course Fee 5.65 lakh 6.55 lakh
Highest CTC 22 LPA 18-20 LPA
Average CTC 9 LPA 8-10 LPA
Recruiting Companies IOCL, BHEL, Honeywell, Aricent, etc. Aditya Birla, Info Edge, Phillips, Reliance, etc.

Finally, everything depends on your interest and choice. So think wisely and then make any decision, because this will be the building blocks of your career.
