Studied at Amity University (2019)

If you are going to take admission for M.Tech in any of these colleges it will be worth the choice. All are quite established and are doing great in curriculum and placements.

But there is always the best among the rest and hence, I would like to suggest you opt for NIT Durgapur. It beats both IIIT Allahabad and IIITM Gwalior. Also, regarding the two IIITs, IIIT Allahabad certainly does better than IIITM Gwalior in competitive programming and placements

  • On the other hand, NIT Durgapur holds strong ties with IIT Kharagpur.
  • The professors and students both are collaborating on various projects from both institutes.
  • The alumni base of NIT Durgapur is also strong. It includes IIT Kharagpur graduates who have completed or are currently pursuing higher degrees at IIT.
  • There is a better opportunity in NIT Durgapur as compared to others, in case you are prepared to utilize these.
  • If you will seek placement after M.Tech, go for Allahabad.
  • In case you are interested in research, I will recommend you to look at the faculty profiles in the respective departments, and make an informed choice.
Categories NIT Durgapur IIIT Allahabad IIITM Gwalior
Course Fee 1.32 lakhs 1.60 lakhs 1.84 lakhs
Highest CTC 24 LPA 25 LPA 19 LPA
Average CTC 8-10 LPA 12 LPA 11 LPA

What are the reasons for the degradation of IIITM Gwalior?

RG
Ruhi Ghosh Posted On : March 24th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior (2019)

This is true that IIITM Gwalior is not the same as before and there are 2 main reasons for it - Academics and Research.

Any college's fate lies in the vision of the director and unfortunately, the dean of IIITM Gwalior doesn't focus much on academics and rather focuses on unnecessary things like exam duties, staff handling, transportation, and all.

This is not all and there is a chain of events that are happening and making the situation worse.

Some of the observation include:

  1. This college is autonomous and hence all its decisions are made here. The problem lies in the fact that all the decisions are made on the go and there is no pre-planning of any task.
  2. The main disgrace is academics. A professor of another field is taking lectures on another subject. What do you think of academics then?
  3. The feedback is just a waste and no action is taken depending on the response of the student.
  4. Faculties are the soul of any educational institute. Faculty here are living in their old vibes and fighting each other, satisfying their ego. They stand nowhere against the faculty of IITs and NITs.
  5. The placement cell is bogus and they try to provide minimum help to the student. Students here are mostly placed off-campus depending on their skillset and coding skills.
  6. The politics that goes around at every level of the institute.

Categories

Which is better for CSE, NIT Goa or IIITM Gwalior?

NY
Nisha Yadav Posted On : August 23rd, 2021
B.Tech, National Institute of Technology, Goa (2020)

Both the institutes are famous. But for the CSE branch, NIT Goa is the better alternative. The reason is placement and recruiters that visit the campus are much better than IIITM. The placement statistics of NIT Goa are below.

Average Package INR 7.35 LPA
Highest Package INR 20 LPA
Top recruiters  R&D, Samsung, HFCL, etc. 

But if you are looking for an excellent hostel and campus life, NITG is not a choice for you. NITG does not have its campus. The current batches adjust in the campus provided by Goa Engineering College (GEC).

Is there a lot of pressure about academics and attendance at IIITM Gwalior?

SP
Smriti Pilani Posted On : July 23rd, 2021
B.Tech + M.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior (2022)

No, your college life would be very balanced. There will be no amount of additional homework or assignment pressure that can burden you.

  • As far as the attendance factor is concerned, yes it is a rule by the MHRD, you ought to clear an attendance limit of 80%.
  • However, at IIITM Gwalior, the on-paper requirement would be 75%, but then it is not something that is taken seriously.
  • My friend, in two of his subjects, had an attendance range of 20-30%. Actually, it all boils down to the faculty and 50-60% of the attendance range is normal.
  • The faculty will absolutely be strict about a whole 75% attendance range but do not worry too much as even if you do not fulfill that sort of requirement, you are good.
  • In case you happen to be an obedient student, you can afford to skip a few classes and save a lot of time from them.

Do not make the mistake of comparing IIITs to IIITM. You would see students in the table tennis court, badminton court, squash court, cricket ground here. Huge fests are conducted at IIITM Gwalior where you would witness a lot of reputed singers like Jonitha Gandhi, Mohit Chauhan, etc. perform. Thus your college life will be exciting at IIITM Gwalior.

Choosing between CSE at NIT Jalandhar and an IT dual degree at IIITM Gwalior can be a tough decision, as both colleges have their unique strengths and weaknesses. Here's a comparison of the infrastructure and placement opportunities at both colleges to help you make an informed decision:

Infrastructure:

  • When it comes to infrastructure, NIT Jalandhar is known for its modern facilities and well-maintained campus. The institute has state-of-the-art labs, modern classrooms, and high-speed internet connectivity. 
  • On the other hand, IIITM Gwalior also has a good infrastructure with well-equipped labs, a well-stocked library, and modern classrooms. However, it may not be at the same level as NIT Jalandhar.

Placement:

  • Both NIT Jalandhar and IIITM Gwalior have a good track record of placing students in top companies. NIT Jalandhar has a dedicated placement cell that organizes placement drives, internships, and training programs for students. Companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, and Tata Motors have hired students from NIT Jalandhar in the past. 
  • IIITM Gwalior also has a good placement record, with companies like Amazon, IBM, and Infosys visiting the campus for recruitment.

The decision of which college to attend should be based on careful consideration of all relevant factors, including academic reputation, placement opportunities, infrastructure, and location. You should also consider your interests, goals, and priorities before making a decision. Weigh the pros and cons of both colleges, talk to current students and alumni, and consult with your mentors and family members before making a final decision.

How did IIIT Lucknow get better placement than IIIT Gwalior (since it has better alumni and brand name)?

MA
Manish Aggarwal Posted On : April 26th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Gwalior (2020)

There is no doubt that you will receive better placement opportunities in IIIT Gwalior than in IIIT Lucknow. The main reason behind this is that irrespective of the count of students in the IIIT Lucknow, around 40 students from 2020 batch got placed with an average of 18 Lacs per annum package. At IIIT Gwalior, the average salary recorded for 2020 batch was 14.5 Lacs per annum.

The following table would give you a brief comparison of the two colleges:

Particulars

IIIT LUCKNOW

IIIT GWALIOR

2020 Rank (NIRF)

4th

76-100 band

Tuition Fees

INR 99000 per sem

INR 50,000

Average Package

Rs 18.42 LPA 

INR 10.5 LPA

Major Recruiters

Amazon Flipkart Nykaa Directi Google Microsoft LinkedIn Vassar Labs Sabre Info Edge Xebia Samsung Goldman Sachs Juspay Goibibo Expedia White Panda Paytm American Express

Aditya Birla Group, Finlatics, IIT Patna, Flamingo, and many more.

The fundamental logic behind total strength in IIIT Gwalior 120 IPG students + 30–40 Mtech (2 yr) students + around 30–40 MBA (2 yr) students. If you would estimate the average of top performers of IPG students of IIIT Gwalior for just say top 40 students then it would be 20 LPA You will find the average package for only 120 IPG students was 16–17 LPA.
