How is IIIT Vadodara for a Btech in CSE/IT?

PK
Priyansh Kumar Posted On : March 16th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Vadodara (IIITV)

If you have a choice between IIIT Vadodara and any other well-established NIT or IIIT for a Btech in CSE/IT, you should go for the latter as IIIT Vadodara lacks proper infrastructure and resources. However, studying B.tech in CSE at IIIT Vadodara is a rigorous course that offers different course content from other colleges, making students good engineers. The professors put in equal amounts of hard work to deliver their content in a professional manner, and there are ample resources available online for students. 

IIIT Vadodara is a good option as it provides exposure to both theory and industrial practice, and the institute has improved immensely. The placements are also getting better, with tech giants recognizing IIIT Vadodara and aiding in projects through developer student clubs and Mozilla student club

Is MAIT Delhi a good college to study CS? What are the placement stats? How good is the crowd there?

NK
Nimrit Kapoor Posted On : March 16th, 2023
Studied at MAIT Delhi

When it comes to MAIT, it may not have the same coding environment as other colleges like MSIT or BVP. However, it is important to note that things are changing at MAIT, and there are opportunities for students to participate in coding competitions, Hackathons, Competitive Programming, Open Source, and more. 

  • The availability of professors with research backgrounds is limited, and more could be done to expand opportunities for serious project work.
  • The course curriculum at MAIT and IPU is outdated and may include subjects that are not directly relevant to CSE students.
  • Placements at MAIT are strong, with companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Infosys, TCS, Wipro, and Accenture visiting the campus.
  • More than 80% of students get placed, with some students receiving offers as high as 42 LPA from Microsoft.
  • It's important to note that many placements listed by others also include off-campus opportunities obtained through individual skills and efforts.
  • CS and IT students shouldn't have to worry about the crowd, especially if in the first shift, as the current boys-to-girl ratio in IT are approximately 2:1.

Why should someone choose IIT Delhi over IIT Mumbai for CSE? Except his/her AIR.?

RR
Riya Radhera Posted On : April 1st, 2023
Works at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

There are two sides to every coin. Similarly, there are many reasons why one must choose IIT Delhi over IIT Mumbai and vice versa. To make it further understandable, I have listed some common pros and cons of IIT Delhi

Pros

  • You are in proximity to the capital city 
  • It’s easy to prepare for some other exams also apart from Engineering like IAS
  • Hauz Khas village in itself is an absolute treat to the eyes
  • Being in Delhi makes it possible to go for road trips to Jaipur, Chandigarh, Lansdown, Rishikesh, Dehradun, Agra, etc.
  • The Delhi Metro makes commuting quiet easy
  • There are many places to explore and hang out with your friends in the vicinity of the campus.

Cons

  • CS department of IIT Bombay is way better than IIT Delhi offering a plethora of diverse courses.
  • The campus of IIT Bombay has more natural landscape and greenery in comparison to IIT Delhi. This enhances the climate and overall ambiance inside the campus 
  • Unlike IIT Delhi, the hostel facilities are much better at IIT Bombay while Delhi hostels are overly crowded.
  • Delhi faces extreme climatic conditions whereas the weather of IIT Bombay somehow remains the same throughout the year.

I leave it to you to weigh the pros and cons accordingly and make an informed decision.

How is chandigarh university for btech cse?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : March 31st, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

I am here to give you a very honest opinion based on my brother's experience at Chandigarh University. The university does everything but imparts good quality education and is more like a money-making machine. The points below will clarify my point further 

  • The faculty pool comprises ignorant professors who are just Master graduates from CU itself. All their lectures are copy paste material and the classes are extremely monotonous with no dynamic or practical approach at all. These professors have no area of expertise and teach different subjects in different semesters
  • There are illogical restrictions and very tight schedules. You don’t get to roam even after classes are over and if you don’t reach the block by 9 30 am, you will find it closed.
  • The syllabus is exhaustive and chaotic comprising so many irrelevant theoretical subjects making students rote learners with minimal understanding of concepts
  • No additional skills like coding, data analysis, and programming are taught. Everything is taught with a theoretical approach with no hands on experience.
  • A huge number of assignments and projects are assigned meant to be completed within a week leaving no time for additional activities or studies.
  • There are attendance policies requiring you to maintain 75% attendance with strict reprimands like debarring
  • The college is not exactly located in Chandigarh but in the outskirts in a village area with no transport facilities.
  • The hostel and mess facilities are appalling

No doubt, the college has a lot of companies coming for placements but the scenario for that isn’t very different. So, I will recommend you to go for any other engineering college after proper research.

How does CS at IIIT Hyderabad compare to BITS Pilani?

MR
Maulik Raichura Posted On : February 27th, 2023
Studied Post Graduate Diploma in Management at Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management, New Delhi (Graduated 2021)

Comparing IIIT Hyderabad and BITS Pilani cannot be done in terms of with as both are reputed institutes. However, they can be compared on the basis of individual parameters.

For instance 

  • Campus: BITS
  • Placements: IIIT Hyderabad 
  • Coding: IIIT Hyderabad

Now it’s up to you to decide which factor will affect you the most. In my opinion choosing IIIT Hyderabad over BITS Pilani is a no-brainer as IIIT Delhi is the best when it comes to CSE. Its curriculum is designed exceptionally well. Apart from this, it fairs well in terms of modern technology, infrastructure, faculties, placements, and greater opportunities for higher studies and research. The only institutes that give IIIT Hyderabad an edge are IIT Bombay and IISc Bangalore. You are bound to gain a lot of fun experience and knowledge at IIIT Hyderabad and won’t regret joining it ever.

However, this definitely does not mean BITS Pilani is not any good. It’s just that the outcomes offered by both institutes are different. If you want to go for MBA or Government Services in the future, BITS Pilani is a good choice as it offers a wider range of opportunities in contrast to CSE at IIIT Hyderabad which is suitable only if you want to stay in this field till the end.

Should I opt for DTU mechanical or IIIT Delhi CSE?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : September 27th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

The choice depends on what matters the most to you. 

If placements, faculty and research opportunities are your top most priority, choose IIIT Delhi CSE. In this respect, IIITD CSE beats DTU Mechanical by a large margin. But if you want the best of campus, college environment, cultural fests and brand name, DTU Mechanical is a much better choice. 

I would personally recommend IIIT Delhi, as it offers top notch placements. But if you’re truly passionate about Mechanical, choose that branch. Do not take your interest for granted while choosing your branch/degree.
