What is the course: electronics and computer science engineering at KIIT?

AD
Ananya Dasgupta Posted On : July 25th, 2023
Studied at Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT)

As a reflection of the sheep mentality, the majority of engineering aspirants can be seen running after CS or IT. However, I will suggest you also give preference to your interests first.

Electronics and Computer Science Engineering is a recently launched branch at KIIT and is actually great. Not many batches have passed out yet, but the branch seems promising like any other branch at KIIT.

  • In the first year, the same foundation courses are taught that are common in all the branches. These include Physics, Chemistry, Basic Electronics, Engineering Mechanics, etc. 
  • From the second year, you will be intrigued by the ECE concepts. Out of the overall curriculum, approximately 55% weightage is given to electronics subjects and 45% weightage is given to CS subjects. 
  • From what I have heard, the subjects taught to ECE are easier than the subjects taught to CS and Electronics students individually. 

In all, Electronics and Computer Science Engineering is a decent choice especially if you are interested in the field. However, if you are still aiming for CS, then you can opt for a branch change after one year. The cut-off for branch change is 8.5 CGPA but to get into CS you will need around 9.2+ and 8.9 or more for IT.

BE from Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology

There is a considerable difference between the two branches of Electronics and Computer and Electronics and Communication. You can make an informed decision only after knowing the nature of the branches and seeing if they align with your interests. So, let’s look at these branches individually

Electronics and Communication - This branch covers concepts related to electronic circuits, and their application in electronic devices. It also includes concepts related to communication systems, CORE Electronics, and its application in embedded communication systems.

How is Electronics Engineering at IIT-BHU in terms of course structure, faculty and placements?

OB
Oindrila Bose Posted On : June 15th, 2023
Studied at IIT BHU (2019)

My friend is a recent graduate of Electronics and communication engineering from IIT(BHU) Varanasi. Here are a few highlights pertaining to the course based on his review of the same.

  • Course structure: The curriculum is regularly updated to meet the industry standard and relevancy. The course structure is designed in such a way that most course-related subjects are introduced in the first year itself. Additionally, there are some CSE subjects to expand the job opportunities for the students.
  • Faculty: Sadly, the faculty here is very lacking. Some even lack the most basic knowledge and just teach the students in their bookish language. The pedagogy adopted is old school bringing down the standard of education here. A few teachers recently joined and brought about slight changes in the pedagogy and the citation is expected to get better. 
  • Placements: Based on the data I got from my friend, the BTech ECE average package was INR 27.73 LPA. Usually, IIT BHU ECE average package is in the range of 20-22 LPA. Core companies like Nvidia and Texas Instruments hired many but top companies like Microsoft have no or fewer openings for CSE students. 

IIT BHU is a good college if you are willing to do self-study and not depend on the faculty.

What is better, IIIT Bangalore Integrated MTech or Electronics at NIT Bhopal?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : October 9th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

There is no ‘better’ college as one college might be better for you but not for someone else and vice versa. Moreover, every college has its own strengths and weaknesses and it depends on you what you are planning to overlook. It’s always advisable to do your own piece of research rather than depending on rumors and online stuff. Jot down the probable pros and cons of the institute

  • Cons:
    The iMTech course offered by IIIT Bangalore is relatively new so might not be a good option. 
  • IIIT Bangalore operates from a very small campus with limited facilities.
  • Being a new institute, its Club culture is also in its infancy. You might find no immediate seniors to discuss projects.

Pros

  • The exceptionally good faculty is one of the major reasons students prefer this college over other engineering colleges. Some professors are from prestigious foreign universities like MIT, University of California Berkeley, Cornell University, and Purdue University and also have strong industry links 
  • The college boasts of well-placed alumni and companies like Yahoo, Amazon, Intuit, Flipkart, Morgan Stanley, Cisco, Siemens, etc. The MTech seniors play a big role in helping with projects.
  • The iMtech course is one of a kind and quite well-structured. It has suitable timings, courses accompanied by labs and projects, a flexible curriculum, and an internship at the end of the third year.
  • IIIT Bangalore has a rich coding culture and iMtech students can be seen participating in various hackathons and coding competitions 

Ultimately, college matters but not to a great extent. What matters is how much effort you are willing to invest while studying.

How good electronics engineering in VIT, pune is?

PC
Pradeep Chowdhuri Posted On : October 13th, 2023
B.Tech from , Vishwakarma Institute of Technology (2021)

VIT Pune has two separate departments namely ENTC(Electronics and Telecommunications) and the other is Elex (Electronics). Here are the highlights of these branches 

  • Academics: The branch has some very well-versed professors who help you with projects, paper writing, and non-academic stuff. 
  • Examinations: VIT has a very easy exam system. There are both mid sems and end sems which lowers the burden and gives you more time to learn in depth about the topics.
  • Labs: The lab facilities here are great 
  • Internships: Sadly, internships in core electronics companies are very rare. CS or IT students get internships very easily.
  • Placements: Only a handful of core electronics companies offer placements at VIT. In comparison to CS and IT, the packages are not very high.
  • Syllabus: The VIT syllabus is well-structured and updated at par with industry needs. 
  • Exchange Programs: Students can also opt for exchange programs in renowned universities in Singapore, Germany, Canada, USA. 

Overall VIT is a great choice. However, you need to consider the fact that this college has no branch change faculty so you will have to choose the right branch at once.

Which is better, IIT BHU electronic or IIT Guwahati mechanical?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 5th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

For most students, the end goal of getting admission to a college is to secure a job in a good company. So most of the time placements become the basis for evaluating the worth and credibility of an institute. Here are some points pertaining to the placements in IIT BHU and IIT Guwahati

  • Very few core jobs are offered with only 20–25% of people from a branch securing a job in their core companies. This is because very few core companies visit and the package offered by them is less than non-core companies. Thus students flock to non-core companies. IITG is much better than IIT BHU in core placements as at IIT BHU, some faculties and labs are not up to the mark.
  • There are multiple non-core companies that offer jobs to the IITians in various profiles such as software development, business analysis, operations executive, and Finance management. IT-BHU offers the best non-core opportunities as the workload is less and placements are great. 
  • You can easily change your branch at IIT BHU with very less effort. All you need to do is maintain a good SPI and then change your branch after the first semester.
  • Located in the prime area, IIT BHU will give you a feel of Varanasi, BHU Vishwanath temple.

However, for students whose priority is not to get a job but to pursue higher studies and pursue a career in research, IIT Guwahati is the best option. A few aspects and the preferred colleges are

  • Placements - IIT-BHU>IITG
  • Academics- IIT-BHU<IITG
  • Faculties- IITG>IIT-BHU
  • Branch change- IIT-BHU>IITG
  • Campus infrastructure- IIT-BHU<IITG
  • Campus life, culture- IIT-BHU>>IITG

The choice of the institute is a matter of preferences and your career prospects so make sure you set your priorities right.
