Can a branch be upgraded in NIT Kurukshetra?

SR
Sumit Roy Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra

Yes, NIT Kurukshetra allows branch upgradation if you are unsatisfied with your current branch subject to certain conditions

  • Vacant Seats: The chances of changing your branch depend upon the vacancy of seats since the seat intake is fixed. Each branch has a specific number of seats allocated to it by the institute and that cannot be changed. So there has to be at least one seat vacant in the branch you want to get transferred to. A few students drop out of college or go to better colleges thereby vacating seats.
  • Demand for the branch: The next factor that will be considered is the demand for that branch. The more in-demand the branch is the lesser the chances of getting transferred. For example, IT and CS are highly demanded branches while ECE is least demanded. 
  • CGPA: One of the most important factors, often underestimated, is your CGPA. Your CGPA for the first year decides your eligibility to get a good upgrade. The higher your CGPA is, the higher your chances of branch upgradation.

The factor that is in your control is your CGPA so start working on it!

It is difficult to give an accurate answer as you do not mention your prioritization. Both NIT Delhi and NIT Kurukshetra are the reputed institutes in India. NITs only have qualified faculties and have good infrastructure. Apart from this, you will get greater exposure and abundant opportunities at NIT Delhi than at NIT Kurukshetra

 So the final decision should be made based on the core subject and your preferences.

Which among IIIT Jabalpur CSE, NIT Jamshedpur ECE, Kurukshetra ECE, NIT Raipur CSE, NIT Hamirpur ECE, NIT Jalandhar CSE colleges is best?

PK
Parneet Kaur Posted On : January 4th, 2023
Studied at IIIT Jabalpur

There are two options available to you. Choose between IIIT Jabalpur and NIT Raipur for CSE.

Why choose NIT Raipur?

  • As of now, the placement scenario is favorable.
  • Seniors would provide you with sound advice.
  • There is a greater emphasis on practical hands-on experience among peers.
  • The highest salary package offered to three students was 32.5 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 6 LPA.
  • You'd almost certainly get a job.

NIT Raipur, why not?

  • If you want to pursue higher education, NIT Raipur is a no-go.
  • There are few opportunities for research.
  • The brand name NIT does not help with the GRE.
  • Higher education is entirely theoretical. Peers get together and must put in extra effort to gain hands-on experience.
  • The syllabus is not focused on the current business world.


Why choose IIIT Jabalpur?

  • It would teach you CSE from the first year, unlike other NITs, which require you to study common subjects like chemical, civil, and mechanical engineering.
  • The placement scenario is nearly identical to that of NIT Raipur. However, it will improve as IIIT Jabalpur improves.
  • There will be far more research opportunities than at NIT Raipur.
  • The brand name may be beneficial for the GRE.
  • The IIIT experience is more enriching than the NIT experience.
  • IIIT Jabalpur has a competitive coding culture.

Why not IIIT Jamshedpur?

  • The students have stern words for IIIT Jabalpur.
  • The situation is similar at NIT Raipur but much more serious.
  • Jabalpur is not a pleasant city to visit.
  • It is in the lower echelons of IIITs that Extra-curricular activities are not spectacular.

Which among IIIT jabalpur CSE, NIT Jamshedpur ECE, Kurukshetra ECE, NIT Raipur CSE, NIT Hamirpur ECE, NIT Jalandhar CSE colleges is best ?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 4th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

The choice of the branch is more important than choosing the institute because it determines and shapes your career. If you are interested in working in a PSU or have an interest in Electronics, choose ECE but if you have no such inclinations choose CS, the most diverse field. There are two main differences between IIITs and NITs

  • IIITs are relatively new and may not have a very extensive alumni network while NITs are aged old and have an elaborate network.
  • NITs provide diverse specialization in various fields while IIITs only focus on Computer Science education. 

Based on the placement scenario and the academics, here is the preference order I would suggest you follow while making your choice

NIT Jalandhar CSE>IIIT Jabalpur CSE>NIT Raipur CSE>NIT Kurukshetra ECE>NIT Hamirpur ECE> NIT Jamshedpur ECE

It's important to note that this preference order is not based on any official data and is based on my own opinion only.

Should I go for electrical engineering at NIT Kurukshetra?

NT
Nivedita Trivedi Posted On : September 1st, 2023
NIT Kurukshetra

NIT Kurukshetra is a good college which gives you the freedom to explore and develop your personality.

If you are interested in the electrical branch, NIT Kurukshetra is a good option. But I must warn you that you’ll find yourself busier than the students of other branches. This is because electrical students have to make a lot of practical files. 

The faculty for EE is helpful and supportive. The placements are also decent. The package range was INR 4.00 LPA - INR 1.25 CPA, the median package was INR 7.90 LPA, and the average package was INR 12.37 LPA for the electrical branch, during 2022 placements.

NIT Kurukshetra is a nurturing place but ultimately the hard work and effort is all expected from you. No one will push you to get out of your comfort zone, that’ll be your task.
