Which is better Nirma university or LD?
It entirely depends on your future plan. If you can afford Nirma and don’t have any plan to pursue further studies after B.Tech then go for Nirma University.
However, if you want to pursue higher education, and you have confidence that you can learn on your own, then LD will definitely be a better choice.
LD gives its students a lot of freedom to work on their interests while maintaining their CGPA which plays a huge amount of role in further studies.
The other factor that is crucial is the alumni of the college. LD College alumni network is huge and a lot of notable alumni are based in both India and abroad. When talking about alumni, Nirma stands no chance as LD was established way before Nirma.
Here is a brief comparison of the institutes.
| Category | Nirma University | LD |
| Companies Visited | L&T, Biocon, Dabur, etc. | Atul, Adani, Tata Chemicals, etc. |
| Highest Package | 46.27 LPA | 10 LPA |
| Average Package | 8 LPA | 4 LPA |
Therefore, you should take your decision thoroughly and wisely whether you must spend approximately eight lakhs for four years or you should spend 6000 for four years with one institution being older than the others along with huge alumni and a great brand name.
Which college is better, LD or MSU Baroda?
It depends on the course you are willing to pursue. As one of my friends is an alumni of MSU and also knows about LD, I can help you with the question.
According to him, if you are willing to study engineering then MSU would be a better choice than LD. The overall academics and curriculum is better at MSU, whereas LD has a somewhat better reputation among industries than MSU. Therefore, placements are better in LD.
But if you think you can secure a job offer by yourself go for MSU as they will provide you with the proper academic guidance.
| Categories | LD Ahmedabad | MSU Baroda |
| Placement Percentage | 80% | 60% |
| Highest CTC | 10 LPA | 8 LPA |
| Average CTC | 4.50 LPA | 4-5 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Accenture, Wipro, IBM, HCL, etc. | L&T, Essar, Infosys, Reliance, etc. |
Also if location is your preference then if you are near to Vadodara go for MSU and if you are close to Ahmedabad go for LD.
Which is better for computer engineering LD or MSU or DDU nadiad? Like environment in class rooms and placement.
After doing some research online about these colleges, I found out that mostly students prefer DDU. It would be better in all the ways from campus to placements.
- The campus of DDU is very good. The infrastructure is well developed.
- All the required facilities are provided and they are fully functional.
- The labs are well maintained.
- The teaching faculty is very good and much better than LD and MSU.
- The academic curriculum at DDU is better than LD and MSU.
- Companies such as Infosys, GSFC, Reliance, Wipro visit for hiring.
You may also want to know that why they do not prefer LD:
- It is a Government institute and it comes under Gujarat Technological University. The exams are conducted at odd timings.
- The schedule is not followed well and vacations are not given at the proper time.
- The students do not get time to learn anything or do internships.
- The labs are poorly maintained and not functional.
- The teaching faculties are not good and supportive. Students have to do self study.
- The only advantage of studying at LD is that it gets a good number of companies as it comes under GTU. Companies such as TCS, Accenture, Cybage, Persistence, HSBC, elite core, Wipro, matrix visits for hiring.
The students passing out from DDU have more skills and knowledge compared to other students. So, overall, DDU would be a better option.
