KP
Kritika Kumari Pathak Posted On : June 29th, 2021
CSE at IIIT Vadodara (2017)

Here is a brief overview of each one of them that might help you choose the best.

IIIT Bhubaneswar: It has been recognized as an International Institute of Information Technology, where the first 50% of the seats are primarily reserved for the Odisha category, while the other 50% is decided upon the JEE Mains. The placement is comparably the same as IIIT Vadodara and in terms of infrastructure, it is largely adequate too.

IIIT Vadodara: The campus is as of now temporarily functioning at GEC Gandhinagar, Gujarat. However, it still has a very reputed technical culture surrounding students, as well as the placements, are continually hiking each year. It is proof of how it is rapidly growing. The hostels of the institute are extremely good, as opposed to most of the other IIITs.

IIIT Una: It was established after IIIT Vadodara. It is at present functioning from NIT. It, unfortunately, has poor transportation facilities.

Nonetheless, for a better idea, here is a brief highlight of each institute’s placement stats for the year 2020.

What if I have to choose one university for the BBA program in terms of crowd, culture, and exposure, between MSU Baroda and AURO University Surat?

GK
Gauri Kapoor Posted On : December 31st, 2022
Studied at The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda

Both universities have been differentiated in terms of crowd, culture, and exposure. 

  • Crowd and Culture: Surat, India's diamond city and textile hub, has a significant population dedicated to these two industries. It has a larger population of migrant workers. The crowd and culture of the college will be influenced by where the students of the course come from. Baroda, on the other hand, has a diverse population. As MSU has a large number of students from Baroda, the college crowd would reflect this culture as well. 

Another reason for the difference in crowd size could be the type of college (University). MSU evolved from the former Baroda College, which was founded in 1881 by Maharaja of Baroda. It is one of Western India's oldest educational institutions. Because AURO University was founded in 2011, the attraction for admission would naturally be towards the former, thus the quality.

  • Exposure: Baroda has a large industrial belt in and around it, so exposure is excellent if you choose MSU. Surat, in comparison, has the distinction of being the largest Diamond Polishing industry, along with the Textile industry, and should have very good industrial exposure opportunities, depending on the new University's efforts to attract experts from the existing Surat industry into the college for student exposure, which AURO University will not lack in.

However, MSU Baroda is a better choice than AURO University Surat for BBA Program because, since it is a well-known, established institution if you need to pursue higher studies after BBA, then studying there would give you better opportunities abroad. Universities and Colleges outside India always check the antecedents of the alma matter, from where the student has done the basic degree, and give a better chance to the old existing University, provided everything else is the same.

  • NIT Trichy has a very big campus and you will have some of the best 4 years of your life here.
  • If you are looking to join some extracurricular activities along with academics, NIT Trichy hosts some of the best Cultural and Technical Festivals in the country known as Festember and Pragyan. You can also participate in various competitions including inter NIT ones.
  • There are some interdepartmental and inter-hostel competitions you can participate in as well.

Categories

One of my cousins studying at IIIT Vadodara said that it is much better than IIIT Surat. Following are some of the facts on why IIIT Vadodara would be a better option than IIIT Surat:

  • IIIT Vadodara is an institute of national importance that will give brand value to a degree.
  • IIIT Vadodara is running BTech in two specializations – Computer Science and Information Technology. They do not offer ECE, whereas IIIT Surat offers B.Tech in CSE and ECE.
  • The coding culture at IIIT Vadodara is growing at a fast pace. If you are into coding, then you will get your desired environment in learning coding skills.

Other things that make IIIT Vadodara stand out are the excellent faculty and the sheer passion and enthusiasm of students for coding. They encourage students from every department to take part in the coding clubs or learn coding from scratch. This is something that other colleges do not provide. If the branch is not your concern, you can go for IIIT Vadodara otherwise opt for ECE at IIIT Surat.

Which is the best college LD College of Engineering Birla Vishvakarma Mahavidyalaya SFI or Sardar Patel University at V V Nagar in Gujarat?

RK
Raj Kumar Posted On : October 6th, 2021
B.E. Instrumentation and Control, Lalbhai Dalpatbhai College of Engineering (2016)

If you can afford it, go for it. Because it is a bustling green campus with 40 odd colleges, you will have an unforgettable experience. Placements used to be nice, but they’ve taken a hit recently; however, they’re still good if you’re good at studies (scoring 6.5 CGPA).

LD is also a good college, but it’s not better than BVM, aside from the affordable fees and the fact that it’s in Ahmedabad.

You should also know that LD College and BVM are Engineering colleges. Whereas, Sardar Patel University V.V. Nagar provides B.Sc., M.Sc., and other non-engineering courses.

Now, here’s a comparison of BVM and LD that will give you get a better picture.

  • In terms of education, BVM is superior to LD. The faculty at BVM is the most experienced and knowledgeable. LD, on the other hand, is not well-known for its educational offerings. Lectures are not given on time, and attendance is never an issue in LD.
  • In terms of placement, more companies visit LD than BVM, but if you are good enough and have good grades and aptitude, you will be placed at either college. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at LD College of Engineering is 4 LPA. 
  • The LD campus is much larger than the BVM campus, but both colleges’ infrastructure is very old, whereas the BVM campus has all necessary student facilities.
  • If you want to live in a city and experience city life, choose LD; if you want to live in a peaceful environment with all necessary infrastructure, choose BVM.

Overall, I would recommend BVM.

Should I join Nirma University, Ahmedabad, or RVCE Bangalore (engineering)?

MS
Meet Sharma Posted On : October 5th, 2020
Studied at Nirma University (2018)

Both Nirma University and RVCE Bangalore are one of the prestigious colleges in India for Engineering. NIRF 2020 has ranked Nirma University at 131 for engineering. Whereas, RVCE Bangalore is ranked 70 for engineering by NIRF 2020. One thing which also needs to be taken into consideration is that Nirma University is a private University situated in Ahmedabad while RVCE is a semi-autonomous University.

Admission

Nirma University offers BTech courses in various specializations at the UG level for engineering whereas RVCE offers BE degrees.

  • RVCE considers the marks of KCET or CET and the 12th marks for creating the merit list, while Nirma University takes the JEE score into account.

  • The minimum requirement is 60% in class 12th with a good score in respective exams, to get admission to both of these colleges.

  • The course fee for BTech at Nirma University is 7.24 Lakhs. Whereas, RVCE Bangalore charges around 12 lakhs for BE courses.

So, Nirma University has a more affordable course fee for engineering courses.

Placements:

It can be said that both of these colleges have a similar reputation and are visited by the same companies every year, but RVCE University is located in Bangalore which is a hub of Engineering. So the Internship Opportunities and the exposure provided there are a bit better than the Nirma University.

Nirma University:

  • The highest CTC offered was of INR 16 LPA, while the average package was 8.2 LPA.

  • Many Companies visited the campus with Alembic Pharmaceuticals, Infosys, Tata Motors, Philips, Tata, Amul, Ashok Leyland Daiken, Reliance Industries Limited.

  • The highest package offered was 52 lacs per annum while the average package offered was 8.63 lacs per annum.

So after seeing all the statistics and comparison between both of these colleges, it can be concluded that RVCE Bangalore would be a bit better over Nirma University as it is having better placement records, more experienced faculty. However, Nirma University has a more affordable course fee. So, choose according to your convenience.
