What should I choose, DTU engineering physics or Thapar University CS?

SP
Samira Puri Posted On : August 10th, 2021
Studied at Calcutta University (2019)

Having known some people studying in both these institutions, I can say that if you plan to get a job offer, go for CS at Thapar University. If not and are interested in doing research opt for Engineering Physics at DTU.

  • Engineering Physics is a field which does not anymore provide a promising opportunity to its aspirants. 
  • If you go with this choice of branch you might get research opportunities after higher studies. 
  • Moreover, if you have prioritized DTU, keep in mind that the quality of education and academic career is reducing with every passing year. 
  • Few of the many branches at DTU are striving to keep their esteemed position with engineering physics not being one of them.
  • Instead, CS at Thapar University would be an excellent option for building a path for your career. 
  • This branch is known for its exceptional academics and for the opportunities held out to the students. 
  • Although it is a batch of almost 570 students in CS you can certainly end up with a 5LPA and above package by the end of your 4th year.
Categories CS at Thapar University
Course Fee 13.23 lakh
Highest CTC 22 LPA
Average CTC 8 LPA

There are many reputed companies that take part in their placement program and recruit CS graduates. These include Infosys, Wipro, Accenture, Capgemini, Oracle, IBM, ZS Associates, Morgan Stanley and many more.

What are the chances of getting into coding after joining ICE in NIT Jalandhar? Do companies visiting NITJ allow ICE students to sit in on-campus placement?

SJ
Shreyansh Jain Posted On : December 7th, 2022
B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Agartala (Graduated 2019)

The first thing you need to understand is that your chances of getting into coding do not depend on your branch.

NIT Jalandhar has an extensive coding environment and almost every student irrespective of their branch wants to learn to code. It also has some amazing clubs like DSC-NIT to help you recognize your interests in coding and other fields like Cloud Computing, Web Development, Android Development & Machine learning.

At NITJ, you will learn coding in your first year only as a part of your 1st-year course curriculum as CP (Computer Programming).

As far as the ICE branch is concerned, it’s the most coveted branch. So if you have joined it you are very lucky. The best part about this branch is its Data Structures & Algorithms course. It is a completely technical course that teaches the most important aspects of coding.

Placements

You don’t need to worry about the on-campus placements. Everyone with 

  • a good CGPA (7.5+)

  • good skills like coding,

will easily secure a good package. Placements are not restricted to just a few branches. Students from every branch can sit for placements. So don’t worry about that and just study hard.

Is biotechnology in UIET Chandigarh any good?

TS
Tanisha Sinha Posted On : May 31st, 2021
ECE from UIET, Chandigarh

Your willingness to pursue this particular stream should be the sole reason you opt for it. It should not be based on anyone’s opinion. Every stream is unique in its own way.

Biotechnology is a tough choice as there are not many opportunities available to its students in India. If you are expecting good placement opportunities after finishing this course from UIET, then you will be disappointed. 

But, if you want to go for research work after this then it is no doubt the perfect choice for you. Since not many go for this subject, you would have an upper hand. You will find students opting for this stream just because they didn’t their desired branch. 

Here’s a brief overview of the Biotechnology course offered at the institute.

Average CTC

7 LPA

Course Fee

3.26 lakhs

Biotechnology in UIET would be a good option only if you’re willing to go for a master’s or any other research work as the placements here are not even satisfactory.

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : April 14th, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

If you are looking for a college that provides engineering education at an affordable price with all the necessary infrastructure, CGC Landran can be a suitable option for you.

On the other hand, if you have a higher budget and can afford to pay the fees of more expensive colleges, Thapar and Amity can be good choices. In particular, Thapar is highly regarded for its engineering program and is consistently ranked among the top engineering colleges in India.

Here are some factors to consider when deciding which college to choose:

  • Budget: If you have a limited budget, it may be wise to consider colleges that offer quality education at a more affordable price, such as CGC Landran. However, if you can afford higher fees, Thapar and Amity may be worth considering.
  • Infrastructure: When it comes to engineering education, infrastructure plays a crucial role. Make sure to check if the college has the necessary equipment and facilities, such as well-equipped laboratories, workshops, and libraries.
  • Faculty: The quality of faculty members is also important when selecting an engineering college. Look for colleges that have experienced and qualified faculty members who can provide comprehensive education and guidance.
  • Placements: Another important factor to consider is the placement record of the college. Check if the college has a good track record of placing its students in reputable companies and if they offer assistance with job placements after graduation.

Overall, it is important to carefully consider your budget and requirements before deciding on an engineering college. If you can afford the higher fees, Thapar and Amity can be great choices.

Which is better, IIITM Gwalior (Dual IT) vs BITS Pilani (M.Sc Bio)?

Shahid Baig Posted On : September 15th, 2020

The integrated degree program at IIITM Gwalior offers two formats; B.Tech + MBA and B.Tech + M.Tech. While most students might not go for the dual degree, it does offer an advantage over other degrees in the following terms:

  • Students can save one year of master’s degree as integrated programs are of 5 years.
  • Students also get the opportunity to opt for other courses that might not be available in mainstream B.Tech programs.
  • Students can decide on their masters after the third year; about if they want to pursue an MBA or M.Tech. In this choice, IIITM Gwalior is more famous for its M.tech degree rather than an MBA.
  • It also gives students an extra year to prepare for further exams like GSoC, ICPC, and TGMC.
  • Students are also allowed to participate in intense and advanced research projects which add value to their portfolio.
  • One potential drawback could be that an integrated program does not grant you a specific specialization. Students are only awarded an M.Tech degree. However, this factor does not affect placements and dual degree alumni get the same placement offers as mainstream master’s degree students do.
  • The student-faculty ratio in the dual degree program is also high which allows students to get personalized attention by the best research faculty on the campus.

BITSPilani also offers integrated dual degree courses, but the specialization is dependent on the overall performance of the students.

  • Students are given CS or M.Sc Bio depending on their performance in the first year of the integrated program. While M.Sc. Bio has a completely different course structure than CS, it does open several different opportunities for a career in foreign countries.
  • The Biology department at BITS Pilani is relatively reputed for its famous slogan ‘Biology at BITS is taught in a way where you’ll not have to memorize.’
  • For students who wish to pursue only CS for their integrated degree, it is important to know that getting CS in master’s has a ratio of 1:5 as compared to all other courses.
  • While purely CS students might not be looking at Bio for their Master’s, an M.Sc. in Bio from BITS is highly reputed and prompts students to go for unconventional career options.

In the end, it completely depends on the student, if they wish to pursue an integrated degree at IIITM Gwalior or BITS Pilani. However, students need to do their ground research on the modalities and course structure of these courses that are offered.
