Sunil Trivedi Posted On : July 5th, 2021
Bachelor of Technology Engineering, Cochin University Of Science and Technology (2020

In Cochin University of Science and Technology (CUSAT) engineering is offered by SOE (Kochi) whereas in CUCEK engineering is offered by (Alappuzha). Having friends studying in both the colleges, I can say that they are equally good.

  • When it comes to the IT sector CUSAT introduced IT in India and is considered a pioneer for the IT sector.
  • The IT branch is well facilitated in both CUCEK and SOE and is considered a good course to opt for here.
  • Both the institutes are well established and have created a name for them.
  • Faculties in both are well trained with a lot of experience.
  • Both of them have world-class labs with the latest equipment and technologies to equip students with the latest inventions.
  • Placements are also good for IT. Mostly they get placed in the southern region of the country like in Bangalore, Hyderabad and etc with good packages.

Is it better to take ECE in NIT, Nagaland or EEE in NIT, Meghalaya (on the basis of future job prospects)?

RT
Rishi Tiwari Posted On : July 5th, 2021
Studied NIT Trichy (2019)

EEE and ECE are both totally different branches and both of them have their respective job opportunities. After a lot of research, I got to know about NIT Meghalaya and Nagaland. Let me discuss them, which might give you a better idea.

  • In today’s world ECE has more opportunities in the private sectors whereas EEE has got more opportunities in government sectors.
  • They also have different requirements for the jobs.
  • In ECE you just need to maintain a good CGPA, with the basics fully memorized and you are good to go.
  • For EEE and getting a government job like PSU, you need to apply for GATE and get a good rank and score.
  • Placement in the ECE stream is easier than the EEE stream.
  • The placements of NIT Meghalaya are a little above Nagaland.
  • You can change your course in NIT Meghalaya to ECE even after selecting EEE in the first semester.

Categories

The most important thing is to make a choice based on your preference of course rather than the institute name since both of them are on equal terms in all aspects.

What should be preferred, CS at Thapar Patiala or Electrical Engineering at PEC Chandigarh?

SC
Sakshi Chaudhary Posted On : July 19th, 2021
Studied at PEC Chandigarh (2019)

As these are two distinct branches of engineering, you should pursue a topic that piques your interest.

  • CS is primarily concerned with software, whereas EE is more concerned with hardware.
  • Fees may be high, but consider it an investment because if you learn and perform well, your first year's salary will pay for four years of education and beyond.
  • However, listen to your heart and natural instincts.
  • A CS graduate has more demand than an Electrical graduate. This is due to the rapid and constant growth of the corporate world.
  • Electrical Engineering students can also sit for placements of both core and IT firms.
Categories CS at Thapar Patiala Electrical at PEC Chandigarh
Course Fee 13.23 lakh 6.39 lakh
Highest CTC 20 LPA 8-10 LPA
Average CTC 11 LPA 6 LPA
Recruiting Companies Wipro, Infosys, TCS, IBM, etc. Phillips, L&T, JP Morgan, TCS, etc.

It all depends on what you're interested in. If you are interested in CS, then choose Thapar (if fees are not an issue) or electrical in PEC Chandigarh.
