It depends on your interests and your financial background. There are many reputed institutes in India where you can do your post-graduation. However, some institutes in the USA and Germany have an international reputation because of their technology and facilities. That is the reason why many graduates choose to do their MS from abroad. The availability of great placement opportunities is another reason. However, before deciding on anything, research the market trends in India as well as abroad to get an idea of the placement opportunities available.

The enrolled candidates are eligible to apply for summer internships in various fields at NIT Trichy, Calicut and Warangal. My cousin was selected for a summer internship last year.

  • If you are not enrolled in one of these courses at these institutions, then you are not eligible to apply for these internship programs. 

The faculty members at these institutions always are on the lookout to collaborate with the students for research activities and this is why the applications for internships are always appreciated.

Is NIT Calicut top 5 nits? Is NIT Calicut prestigious and reputed one? .iam leaving IIT and going to ECE at Calicut?is it a good decision?

SS
Sakshi Sharma Posted On : August 20th, 2021
B.Tech Electrical Engineering, National Institute of Technology Durgapur (2020)

It’s for you to decide whether it is a good decision or not. But only CS or ECE at NIT Trichy, NIT Surathkal, or NIT Warangal or CS in other NITs such as Allahabad, Calicut, and Rourkela can be compared to IIT courses. 

NIT Calicut is prestigious. It does not come in the top 5 NITs, but it is definitely in the top 10. But you are only receiving ECE in NIT Calicut. So, you should think it through before leaving an IIT.

Make an informed decision. Otherwise, you will be sorry in four years. Finally, it is entirely up to you.

Which college has the best chemical engineering department in Kerala: GEC Thrissur, NIT Calicut or TKM College?

UK
Utkarsh Kumar Posted On : August 28th, 2021
B.Tech in Civil Engineer from Government Engineering College, Thrissur (2016)

You should have a clear idea of what you are going to pursue after the four years. This way you can focus on a particular college accordingly for your undergraduate degree. 

  1. If you are aspiring to get placed then go for NIT Calicut. Mostly 3 to 5 core companies often visit for chemical engineering branch with very decent packages.
  2. The campus life is worth living at NIT Calicut. You can enjoy various games at the hostel and special evening clubs are designed basically for holistic development. 
  3. Another factor that makes NIT Calicut stand out is the politically passive environment where you can fully concentrate on your academics and engross yourself in the academics-related clubs along with some co-curricular activities.

The only disadvantage that NIT Calicut has is the weak alumni network due to the newly formed campus as compared to GEC Thrissur.

Along with the placements, the brand name of NIT when added to your resume can help you immensely for your future professional life. So think twice and consider all the factors before taking final admissions.

How is the grading system at NIT Calicut?

MS
Mohina Sharma Posted On : August 26th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2019)

Currently, NIT Calicut follows a hybrid grading system. While some subjects follow absolute grading, some subjects follow relative grading. It depends on the subject and the professor teaching the particular subject. However, a subject can have only one kind of grading system.

The relative grading system followed by NIT Calicut is different from that followed at the IITs. It has nothing to do with the percentiles. The marks obtained by the top 5% - 10% of the students are given the top grade, i.e. S. All other students are given grades lower than them accordingly.

Which is best: NIT Calicut, NIT Bhopal, NIT Jaipur, or NIT Rourkela?

VN
Vikas Shankar Nayak Posted On : August 27th, 2021
B.Tech computer science from National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (2020)

Honestly, it totally depends on your choice. If you want as per placement rankings then NIT Calicut surely beats NIT Rourkela which in turn is better than NIT Jaipur and NIT Bhopal. As some of my friends studied at NIT Rourkela, I can assure you that the overall campus is improving very fast. Also they offer good placements.

  • Many famous companies are hiring a lot of students now. 
  • If you are seeking a good infrastructure, NIT Rourkela is the best of all NITs. 
  • For overall rankings, you can refer to MHRD, National Institute Ranking Framework (NIRF). 
  • Certain departments at NITR leave a lot to be desired, where Calicut has the edge. 
  • All is better than Bhopal and Jaipur in placements though. However, in terms of infrastructure, campus life, hostel life, sports facilities, the overall holistic development of an individual NIT Rourkela is a good option. 
Parameters NIT Calicut NIT Bhopal NIT Jaipur NIT Rourkela
Tuition Fee INR 16,000 INR 70,000 INR 1.6 LPA INR 7,500
Placement Percentage 73.5% 82% 73.22% 95%
Average Package INR 11.57 LPA INR 7.56 LPA INR 8.03 LPA INR 8.75

Placements cannot be the only judging factor. Remember that students from the best departments at all these campuses do land up getting good IT jobs with a decent salary package.

Is architecture really good at NITT and NIT Calicut?

AT
Akashi Thirukonda Posted On : August 27th, 2021
B.Tech Chemical Engineering, National Institute of Technology Calicut (2019)

Architecture students at NIT Trichy are extremely talented and hardworking. The campus has a competitive environment. The whole course is more about learning by doing rather than mugging up theories. 

A career in Architecture requires you to learn from an already established firm or architect and then go ahead to carve your niche. My friends have shared really positive experiences about these kinds of internships, so my guess is that at NIT Trichy you give you the proper exposure. 

Parameters NIT Calicut NIT Trichy
Tuition Fee INR 16,000 INR 72,500
Placement Percentage 73.5% 92%
Average Package INR 11.57 LPA INR 11.58 LPA

You must know that the field of architecture is not weak-hearted and you must possess good control over your body NIT Calicut is also one of the good colleges for architecture. But the ultimate decision lies in your hand.

Which is better for B.Arch- NIT Trichy, NIT Calicut or Jamia Milia Islamia?

KP
Khushi Panday Posted On : August 20th, 2021
Studied Electrical and Electronics Engineering at National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2019)

All three colleges fall on the list of top Architecture institutes in India. NIT Calicut and NIT Trichy are known for Architecture as their best programs. Having to know some people studying in these institutes, I can say that though NITs are the best for architecture, Jamia is also at par with them.

  • It is obvious that NIT is a much more popular brand than Jamia. But it is still really good when it comes to architecture.
  • Jamia has the locational advantage of being situated in the capital city.
  • Jamia has better industrial exposure compared to NIT Trichy or Calicut.
  • The course curriculum of NITs is more inclined towards the technical side, which is an upside.
  • Placements at NITs are definitely better, but Jamia is also not lagging behind.
  • The infrastructure is better in the NITs than Jamia, be it labs, seminar halls, library, etc.
  • The fees at NITs are a bit higher than Jamia.
  • Though students will get better opportunities after graduating from NIT Trichy or Calicut.
Categories Architecture at NIT Trichy Architecture at NIT Calicut Architecture at Jamia Millia Islamia
Course Fee 7.00 lakh 6.78 lakh 55,750
Highest CTC 20 LPA 16 LPA 12-13 LPA
Average CTC 10 LPA 8 LPA 6-7 LPA

Therefore, it is suggested that you opt for NIT Trichy or Calicut for pursuing architecture. If not then you can go for Jamia instead, as it is also a good college.
