AB

lives in New Delhi

BIT Mesra is a well-renowned institution and holds a great reputation for its CSE program. Here are the pros and cons of studying CSE at BIT Mesra-

Pros-

  1. BIT Mesra has good labs and other facilities. The Technology Block is dedicated mainly to CSE students.
  2. The CSE curriculum is interdisciplinary in nature. The syllabus of IITs is closely followed. 
  3. Some hostels are newly constructed while some are a bit old. However, the hostel facility is fine. The mess food is average and the hostel fee is quite affordable.
  4. The faculty is good but you will have to put in extra effort from your side. 
  5. You can approach your seniors for guidance and preparation tips. Almost all the CSE students are involved in online competitions and the competitiveness is quite high.
  6. During 2022, the average package for the CSE branch at BIT Mesra stood at INR 19.27 LPA, and the highest package stood at INR 58.33 LPA. Amdocs, BYJU’s, Cognizant, Wipro, Infosys, Daffodil Software, etc. visited the campus for placements.
  7. BIT Mesra has a reputation of its own which will aid you in getting a job at a well-known brand.

Cons-

  1. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the curriculum, studies become overwhelming at times. You may also end up giving less time to your CSE majors and coding. 
  2. You might not be able to choose certain electives during the 7th and 8th semesters due to the lack of faculty available for the same.
  3. Semester exams are planned without any gaps in between and this can be immensely pressurizing.

BIT Mesra is a well-renowned institution and a CSE from there will definitely add value to your profile. However, if you get a CSE at DCE, BITS Pilani, Jadavpur University, or the top three NITs, go for these institutions.

What if I am unable to clear my backlog after my 4th year of btech in aktu, what will be the procedure then?

AS
Aman Sharma Posted On : November 17th, 2022
Studied at Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University

If you fail to clear your backlog after the 4th year of B.Tech. In AKTU, you will have to reappear for the backlog exams.

The major drawback is that the additional time you take to clear backlog exams will be mentioned in your Degree. For instance you took a year more to clear your backlog, your degree will show 5 years instead of 4.

This will affect you mr job prospects and career in the future so try your best to clear your backlog before the 4th year itself.

What is your review about IIT Hyderabad, electrical engineering branch?

NS
Narayan Shaymal Posted On : May 9th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad (2020)

Although every department of IIT Hyderabad offers top-notch education, it’s the EE department that steals the show. There are many unique aspects of this department that make it one of the most coveted branches of IIT Hyderabad.

  • The fractal academic system is a unique feature of IIT Hyderabad that sets it apart from other IITs. You have no choice but to work hard and excel in all subjects. There aren’t mids and ends in every sem instead you have monthly quizzes to evaluate you regularly. 
  • There are many other strategies adopted to make the students work hard. For example, surprise quizzes in almost every subject are taken. These quizzes require the students to prepare before and after every class and also be regular to classes. 
  • The EE department helps convert theory to practice through a number of projects.

Is CSAM at IIIT Delhi worth it?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : October 7th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

No, CSAM at IIIT Delhi is definitely not worth it. Here is a detailed review of the program as shared by a friend 

  • Branch Structure: In the first year, students are taught subjects the same as CSE, The course structure becomes challenging after the first year, There are 2 math courses added every semester. In the 4th semester complex subjects like Algorithm design, Abstract Algebra, Differential Equations, and an elective from Physics, Maths, Bio, etc. are included in the syllabus. No core CSE courses like DBMS, CO, or OS are even offered to CSAM students. Overall, there are 7 compulsory Math courses and 5 CS courses. So, out of 15 courses to be done in the last 2 years, 12 are compulsory. 2 are compulsory for everyone and CSAM students have only 1 slot.
  • Professors: Most professors are highly educated, and offer extremely challenging courses. Students aren’t asked basic questions or theorems taught in class. The grading scheme is also quite tough for these courses.
  • Placements: CSAM placements at IIIT Delhi depend more on individual profiles and skills than the college. Usually, companies dont prefer CSAM students over CSE because they are taught core courses like DBMS, OS, CO, etc. CSAM BTech placement percentage this year stood at 98.44%. 

All in all, the CSAM branch of IIIT Delhi isn't a good choice if you are primarily interested in placements. It is futile to study such high-level Math if only your knowledge of Data Structures, OS, DBMS, etc. will be considered during placements. CSAM should be considered only if you are interested in research in applied math.

Is ECE better than CSE in NIT Rourkela?

SM
Subhankar Mitra Posted On : August 14th, 2023
studied at National Institute of Technology, Rourkela

I am yet to understand the blind passion people possess for the CSE branch including those who have no interest in the field whatsoever. Even if you have a passion for CSE, the NIT Rourkela is certainly not the right place to bring out your abilities in this field. The placements, undoubtedly, are excellent at par with some new IITs. bit NIT Rourkela lacks in other major aspects such as

  • Highly underqualified professors. In fact, the majority of the CSE classes are conducted by teaching assistants of professors who have degrees from average engineering colleges. 
  • Professors have no fixed marking criteria and students face serious issues when marks are deducted unnecessarily.
  • The curriculum is obsolete and does not meet industry standards. Students who are serious about academics have to take up MOOCs to learn additional things.

Irrespective of the branch you go for between CSE and ECE, you will witness similar job opportunities and success rates. Most students get placed in huge firms like Amazon, Microsoft, and Samsung. So, choosing the right branch in your case depends on your personal preference and interests.

Which is better, ECE at NIT Jalandhar or EEE at BITS Goa?

SS
Sanchay Shah Posted On : August 23rd, 2021
B.E. Computer Science and Engineering, Vasavi College of Engineering (2022)

The better choice is undoubtedly EEE at BITS Goa than ECE at NIT Jalandhar.

NIT Jalandhar is still a developing institute whereas BITS Goa is a well-established institute that has got reputation all over the world. Most of the students have cracked competitive exams like GMAT, GRE, and UPSC, etc with a good rank.

You will interact with people who have appreciable knowledge and you will have healthy competition as BITS Goa don't have caste reservations.

Finally, if you can afford to join BITS then do it if not take a loan and don't worry about returns. You will get them in a year or maybe 2 years. Ultimately the choice is yours.
