Which college is best for doing master's in structural engineering? CEPT university, Nirma or SVNIT Surat?

TS
Trisha Sharma Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Studied at Sardar Vallabhbhai National Institute of Technology, Surat

SVNIT is theoretical research-based while CEPT is more practice-oriented. If you are interested in pursuing a Ph.D. further or if you would like to get placed on-campus, then SVNIT is your place.

After matching your requirements focus on excelling at GATE to get structural engineering getting into structural engineering at SVNIT.

If you choose CEPT then you will have to work hard to get a job. It is well known in all of Asia and has one of the best civil engineers. The faculty is highly qualified, its alumni are working in MNCs and most of them get annual trips abroad.

Lastly, if you are not from Ahmedabad you will have to stay at the CEPT hostel which is an awesome place to stay, as you will see for yourself if you so choose to be.

Be mindful of the fees because both SVNIT and Nirma charge more about the quality they provide.

Can I get admission in SVNIT on the basis of my GUJCET score?

SC

B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Sardar Vallabhbhai National Institute of Technology, Surat

No, you can’t take admission at SVNIT, based on GUJCET score. For undergraduate courses, SVNIT admissions are through JEE Main and JoSAA counseling. Being a Central Govt. affiliated institute, the institute takes admission based on national-level examination scores. 

GUJCET is a state-level examination. Colleges and state universities of Gujrat take admission through the examination.

Which is better SVNIT chemical or Nirma computer?

TM
Tanvi Mittal Posted On : June 22nd, 2021
Studied Chemical Engineering at Sardar Vallabhbhai National Institute of Technology, Surat (2020)

You should opt for SNVIT chemical. If you are inclined towards it and the placements are very decent with many recruiting companies. You will find a diverse environment here and will develop bonds and learn many new things. Also, the fests are one of the major attractions that give you a great experience of college life with new challenges whether you are in an organizing team or participating team. At the same time, the JEE ranking should be high enough to get admission to opt for chemical.

If you are interested in CS, then you should score 9.4+ in your first year. But if you have not studied CS before especially programming languages then it would be a very hard nut to crack. You can work on your weak topics in 1st year as nothing much is taught. If you are in Nirma then you would miss the college and hostel life, the best memories of college life.

If you like chemical engineering then go for it, never get trapped by the fickle-mindedness of people in society. Since in India, the tag of your college determines your intelligence level and capabilities so if you compare SVNIT Chemical with Nirma CSE, I would suggest SVNIT due to the opportunities it provides.

Should I prefer IIIT Bangalore CSE or SVNIT CSE?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : January 8th, 2024
Lives in Bangalore

IIIT Bangalore CSE is an outstanding choice in every aspect. It is way better than SVNIT CSE. But there is a drawback to IIITB. It only offers a 5 year integrated program (B.Tech + M.Tech). I have a few friends at IIIT Bangalore, and according to them, a B.Tech is always better than an iM.Tech. 

Regardless, IIITB CSE is way ahead. You should definitely consider it, especially if the high fee is not a concern for you.

Which should I prefer, SVNIT mechanical or IIIT Vadodara computer science?

SR
Suchismita Roy Posted On : July 5th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Vadodara (2022)

If you are not looking at the branch, then you should think about going to SVNIT for Mechanical. Having friends study in both the institutes, I might be able to provide some details about them.

However, if you have decided that you would like to go for computers and if you could handle that field, IIIT Vadodara is a pretty good choice.

But many people will also advise you to not compare the two branches as they are quite different. NIT Surat is a better option facility wise but let me tell you that getting a job in the mechanical core is quite difficult. A lot of students will also opt for software fields.

Categories

Mechanical at SVNIT

CSE at IIIT Vadodara

Course Fee

5.47 lakh

7.83 lakh

Highest CTC

19 LPA

21-25 LPA

Average CTC

6.09 LPA

12 LPA

Recruiting Companies

Tata, Infosys, L&T, Sapient, etc.

Microsoft, Adobe, Amazon, HCL, etc.

Placement-wise, IIIT Vadodara is the best as you can get a lot more than what you might be looking for in Mechanical. Hope this helps.

Should I pursue IT in NIT Surathkal or CSE in SVNIT Surat??

AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : January 4th, 2024
Lives in Ahmedabad

The CSE faculty of SVNIT might be a little better, but apart from that, NIT Surathkal is superior in every aspect. 

The IT department of NIT Surathkal boasts of top notch lab infrastructure, and up-to-date curriculum for B.Techs. It focuses on project based learning. This means that every course has a practical component. A lot of work is expected from the students, and the time given for these assignments and projects is limited. This allows for quick learning, but it also demands a lot of hardwork from the students’ side. Even in terms of placement, B.Tech IT at NITK is way ahead.

Thus, I would recommend you opt for IT at NITK over CSE at SVNIT.
