How is the CSE at NIT Delhi compared to NIT Raipur's?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 2nd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

I would recommend you go for CSE from better NITs or other institutes like PEC, IIIT, YMCA, and others. Even IIIT Delhi is a decent option if you are considering staying in Delhi only. The reason I am against NIT Delhi so strongly is because it’s new and its CSE course is yet to develop and reach a certain standard. It does have its own campus and the facilities are also very limited here.

  • There are serious connectivity issues as the hostel buildings are very far from the main campus. The accommodation facilities are poor and not at par with NIT standards. 
  • Being newly established it has a very poor placement scenario not comparable to the old NITs or other institutions like PEC Chandigarh, IIITs, etc.
  • NIT Delhi does not have an active coding culture. The timetable is very rigid and the classes are conducted consequently without many breaks.
  • The faculty is also underqualified and has only a few good professors. 

Ultimately, I will suggest that if you are seriously inclined towards CS, and are ready to explore endless opportunities in the same,  then consider joining some other NIT than Raipur or Delhi. Go for IIIT Delhi instead!

Which one is better for keeping further studies as an option, an IPM at IIM Indore or a B.Stat at ISI?

SM
Sujoy Majumder Posted On : September 3rd, 2021
Studied Finance & Marketing at Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (2018)

Both the above-mentioned options are excellent to be considered. The IIMs prepares you to manage people and processes, whereas the ISI prepares you to be excellent quants.

Many IIM graduates work as quantitative analysts, they get the highest-paying jobs. If the ISI course is more appropriate, you could take the Bachelor of Statistics course. Quantitative analysts, on the other hand, tend to wear out soon, due to heavy workload.

An IIM education provides you with a broad perspective on management as well as access to a large alumni network. So, if you want to work your way up the corporate ladder, an IIM would be a better option. At the end of the day, it's up to you to decide where your priorities lie.

I have friends at both MAIT and DSCE, so I think I can give you some information about the institutes, which may be helpful.

  • Location is the most important parameter that you need to consider while choosing one of these two institutes. As DSCE is in Bangalore and MAIT is in Delhi. Choose the location which is better suited for you.
  • Both institutes are reputed and will offer you good infrastructural facilities and placement opportunities. But if we consider CSE specifically then MAIT has an edge over DSCE. CS/IT is one of the best branches of MAIT and you will get ample opportunities there.

Here are the recent placement statistics for the institutes.

Which one should I choose, IIIT Allahabad (IT), MNIT Allahabad (IT), NIT Bhopal (CSE), or NIT Jalandhar (CSE)?

RR
Rohit Ranjan Posted On : April 9th, 2021
CSE at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2017-present)

IIIT Allahabad is better than MNIT Allahabad if you are interested in coding. Although NITs and IIIT Allahabad both are centrally funded technical institutes. The only difference is the course curriculum as IIIT Allahabad focuses only on IT and ECE. Due to this, minor subjects like Chemistry, Applied Mechanics, Engineering Drawing are dropped in 1st and 2nd semester itself. 

NITs have a long legacy making it more reputable with strong alumni across all domains. On the other hand, IIITA is a young institution and follows innovative academic policies. Its alumni members are even present in Silicon Valley in a short span of time.

You can decide your own priorities in the career. If you are interested in coding culture and look forward to great internships and placements with a small cozy campus, you should prefer IIIT Allahabad. You should opt for MNIT Allahabad if you are interested in meeting new people with diverse backgrounds. It will help you in enhancing your personality. 

If you ask me, my vote goes for IIIT Allahabad on all these below parameters.

  • College Life: IIIT Allahabad is an institute of national importance, and boasts one of the best campuses in the country. Whereas, MNNIT is not even on the edge.
  • Placements: 96% of the students got placed and received job offers from more than 120 companies. All major Computer Science companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Adobe come to IIIT Allahabad's campus and make offers.

The following table shows the placement statistics of IIIT Allahabad:

Particulars

Amount

B.Tech

Highest CTC 

43 LPA

Average CTC

21.05 LPA

Median CTC

19.27 LPA

M.Tech

Highest CTC

35.55 LPA

Median CTC

12 LPA

Average CTC

14.45 LPA

IIIT Allahabad has placements in Google Mountain View/ Europe/ Australia/Japan from almost every Batch from the past 4-5 years. IIIT Allahabad was preferred by these companies because a lot of alumni already worked in these companies and better industry perception has been built up.

The strength in NIT-A is approximately twice as compared to IIIT-A. And every year this strength keeps increasing. As you know that the quality decreases with the increase in strength, I would again suggest you choose IIIT-A.

  • The course of your choice will keep you more focused and keep you more determined.
  • In today’s world CSE has more value than any other subject whether it’s on or off-campus. It’s always in high demand and will stay for a very long time.

  • Companies recruit from some particular branches which are in more demand than others and also the core branches.
  • Your choice of subject will prove more beneficial than your college.

Lives in New Delhi

BIMTECH, being older, possesses a slight edge over MDI Murshidabad. Both have strong brand names associated with them (Birla and MDI). However, joining BIMTECH will provide you with a lot of opportunities and help boost your confidence by providing industry exposure. The faculty is supportive, and the infrastructure and location are good. 

However, you should look at different factors before joining a college, like placement records, location, industry exposure, infrastructure, faculty, etc. Comparing these two colleges on these parameters, BIMTECH comes out on top.
