Is YMCA UST better than PEC Chandigarh?

VG
Vaibhav Goyal Posted On : September 19th, 2022
B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering & Automobile Engineering, YMCA University of Science and Technology

No, PEC Chandigarh is way ahead of YMCA UST. PEC has a higher cutoff, hence a better student crowd. It also has a smaller batch size, so every student gets the required attention. PEC Chandigarh placements are better. The average and highest CTC for the institute are INR 10.83 LPA and INR 42 LPA, respectively. 

Situated in Chandigarh, PEC also has a locational advantage. You will receive better exposure.

Should I join IIIT Guwahati for ECE, or should I join NIT Silchar's EEE?

DB
Devdutta Bose Posted On : June 22nd, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology Silchar (2019)

Having a few friends studying in both of these institutes, I can provide you with some details based on my interaction with them. IIIT Guwahati and NIT Silchar are both institutes of national importance. The NIRF Ranking for Engineering 2020 is 66 and 46 respectively.

  • If you want to join the Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) branch, IIIT Guwahati is the only choice because NIT Silchar does not offer this branch.
  • But for others, like Electronics and Communications Engineering (ECE), NITS will be the best selection.
  • Even the alumni of NITS are biased towards their institute.
  • The campus of IIIT Guwahati is new. The institute is well-equipped but yet far behind NITS.
  • IIT Guwahati has a weaker base of alumni. The reason is that it came into existence after NITS.

Criteria

NITS

IIIT Guwahati

Fee

INR 5.54 Lakhs

INR 9 Lakhs

Average CTC

INR 7.70 LPA

INR 10.20 LPA

Median CTC

INR 6.5 LPA

INR 5.5 LPA

Highest CTC

INR 35 LPA

INR 17 LPA

The faculty of NITS has a rich experience. Out of 209 faculty members, 195 are Ph.D. holders. Overall, NITS is a better choice for ECE.

Which should one choose, VIT University, Vellore CSE or ITM University, Gwalior CSE?

AK
Anusha Karmakar Posted On : March 31st, 2021
B.Tech Engineering & Mechanical Engineering Design, ITM University Gwalior, Turari Campus (2019)

ITM University is one of the emerging top private universities in the country. You might think that this is answer biased but personally I have no associations with any of these universities.

ITM University has grown tremendously in the last 6 years. The guests that the University invites in the convocation ceremony are no ordinary people but an alumnus at the university and you will be surprised to see the names. Here are a few names of the alumni:

  • Mrs. Aruna Roy (ex IAS Officer, recipient of Magsaysay Award)
  • Rajat Sharma
  • Yuvraj Singh
  • Shri Ashok Vajpeyi
  • Padmashri Govind Nihalani
  • Padma Vibhushan Dr. Raghunath Anant Mashelkar

Now, let us look at the comparison between the VIT University, Vellore CSE, and ITM University, Gwalior CSE.

  • VIT is much older than ITM and thus, VIT outshines in case of reputation and facilities. The intake for CSE at VIT Vellore is 1200 but at ITM Gwalior, it is just 120.
  • The infrastructure at VIT Vellore is much better than the infrastructure at ITM Gwalior. In fact, the infrastructure of VIT Vellore is one of the finest among all the colleges in the country.
  • The fee at VIT Vellore is approximately 15 lakhs (hostel fee included) if you get selected through VITEEE (the entrance exam conducted by VIT). But if you go through the management quota or category system, you will have to pay a hefty amount of Rs. 30 lakhs, approximately. The fee at ITM Gwalior is Rs. 9 lakhs for 4 years (hostel fee included).
  • Faculties are good at both institutions. There are faculties for M.tech and Ph.D. in both institutions.

Do not join VIT Vellore through management quota paying such a large amount, join only if you make it via entrance exam because it will not be beneficial.

ITM Gwalior provides you with good opportunities at a much lesser fee.

Why are IIM Ranchi and Raipur underrated compared to IIM Udaipur even after better placement records?

SK
Swathi Kiran Kumar Posted On : January 21st, 2023
Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Management Raipur (2020)

I think the single most important reason why IIM Raipur and Ranchi are considered below IIM Udaipur is the lack of proper marketing. IIM Udaipur has managed to make its mark through enough marketing and promoting research culture. The IIMRs is also flawed in the sense that they are located in extremely poor economic states. This flaw overshadows all their features and the fact that they have better placement scenarios than IIM Udaipur.

Every IIM has set a certain goal and is gradually climbing the ladder to reach its level of excellence. The same is the case with IIMRs. In just a few years these two will be among the best IIMs in India.

Which is better, IIM Sirmaur tourism and hospitality or FMS BHU?

KA
Kumar Abhijit Posted On : January 19th, 2023
Former Student at Indian Institute of Management Sirmaur (2019–2021)

FMS BHU gives an edge to IIM Sirmaur in almost every aspect. The fact that it is a baby IIM yet to establish its position in the industry is the main drawback of IIM Sirmaur. Even its IIM tag lacks credibility and worth because of its weak alumni base and below average placements. However, if you are specifically choosing IIM for the course and not the tag, then you might go for it.

FMS BHU is one of the leading B Schools technically due to its early establishment. It has an upper hand in the following aspects when compared to IIM Sirmaur

  • Better placements than IIM Sirmaur
  • Strong alumni base
  • Better infrastructure and faculty

Should I go to Banasthali University or Bharati Vidyapeeth in Delhi for a B.Tech?

SM
Swarupa Mukharjee Posted On : July 21st, 2022
studied Bachelor of Technology Degrees at Banasthali University

Banasthali University is a better option for pursuing a B.Tech. It is especially good for branches related to Computer Science. Most of the faculty members are well-experienced. The curriculum is such that you will mostly get surface-level knowledge. If you want to learn a subject in detail, then you will need to self-study. 

The placements are good. The recent highlights of Banasthali University placement show the average and highest CTC to be INR 3.60 LPA, and INR 5.20 LPA, respectively.

Which is better, HBTU Kanpur or IIIT Pune?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : December 26th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

IIIT Pune is comparatively a very new college, and its first batch passed out in 2020. On the other hand, HBTU Kanpur has a rich legacy. It has completed more than 100 years, and is one of the oldest engineering colleges in India.

As a result HBTU has a strong alumni network, and its graduates are working in different brands all across the world. Reputed MNCs look up to HBTU Kanpur for placements. Location-wise though, IIIT Pune has an upper hand, as Pune is a tech hub. Moreover, IIIT Pune has COEP as its mentor institution. 

I would personally recommend HBTU Kanpur over IIIT Pune, given the former’s rich legacy over all these years. Placement-wise, even IIIT Pune is a good enough choice.
