Which is better, IIIT Naya Raipur, IIIT Lucknow or NIT Raipur (CS/IT)?

LC

The following answer to this question will enlist some facts to the students. Among the IIITs, as mentioned above, are completely new, so they still not have alumni networks. 

The course offered by these institutes is the best if you want to learn or do research in the future. But if placements are considered, IIIT Lucknow and IIIT Naya Raipur are still lagging far behind than NIT Raipur, a well-established institute among the two IIITs. 

NIT Raipur has an infinite alumni network. Companies like Oracle, Microsoft, Amazon make a regular visit to complete their recruitment process with CTCs of 8+ LPA, specifically for the CS and IT students.

The biggest cons of NIT Raipur is its Hostel, as only 30% of students here take hostel accommodation, and the rest 70% find PGs, rent houses, or flats for their accommodation.

Another disadvantage of this institute is the outdated syllabus of NIT Raipur, along with the grading techniques.

Therefore the choice is obvious. If a student is interested in carrying on higher studies, they can go for IIIT Naya Raipur. It is well-established and has a permanent campus. But, IIIT Lucknow is carrying out its administration as a temporary campus.

Besides, if you want placement immediately after completing your studies, you must choose NIT Raipur.

Is it a risk to join IIIT Lucknow as it will shift to its new campus soon?

AG

The answer is, NO, without a doubt. Here are some reasons as to why it isn’t a risk to join IIIT Lucknow even after the shifting of the institute -

  1. The campus shift that you’re afraid of, has already taken place about three years ago. This is why IIIT Lucknow is operating separately from IIIT Allahabad and now has no dependence on the latter.
  2. IIIT Lucknow has its own separate permanent campus in Lucknow.
  3. It has its own staff, faculty, and management. Therefore, like earlier times, students don’t need to share classes with IIIT Allahabad.
  4. The workshop and coding culture at IIIT Lucknow is as par with IIIT Allahabad which is considered one of the best in India. Students from IIIT Lucknow have been the top performers in all the coding workshops held at IIIT Allahabad. The seniors are now organizing workshops for the new batches at IIT Lucknow so there is no need to worry.

So, there is no risk in joining IIIT Lucknow as it has already shifted its campus. This is rather an 

advantage because now IIIT Lucknow is not dependent on IIIT Allahabad and it can conduct and organize its workshops on its own.

IIIT Lucknow started in 2015, being mentored by IIIT Allahabad as the Lucknow campus was under construction. From the batch of 2019, the campus has shifted to the new campus of IIIT Lucknow. 

  • It is located in a very serene, beautiful, and fancy location of the city which gives very positive and peaceful vibes to all staying.
  • The Lucknow campus is now already up and running with all the basic necessities and facilities on point. 
  • Almost all the building work is finished and it is indeed a very massive campus in making.
  • The recruitment process at the Allahabad campus was carried out quite phenomenally and I am quite sure the hiring and the recruitment process continues at the brand new Lucknow campus too.
  • They are doing exceptionally well in the recruitment processes and the newly designed campus is getting popular with every passing day.

I am aware that the students were quite keen on moving to the Lucknow campus and theirs is quite a well-performing batch.

Which IIIT should I choose for CS/IT, Gwalior, Kota, Vadodara or Lucknow?

SG
Sohini Ghosh Posted On : March 17th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Vadodara (2018)

IIITM-Gwalior is the best choice to opt and if you are getting it, grab the opportunity. It is the oldest IIT of India with its own campus spread over 160+ acres and is totally funded by MHRD. The institute has a decent placement with the average package for M.Tech was around 10.5 LPA. In MBA, the highest was 15 LPA.

If you're not getting IIIT Gwalior, then the order should be as follows: IIIT Lucknow > IIIT Vadodara > IIIT Kota.

IIIT Lucknow was recently established and is making good progress and the placement records are good. If one has to choose between IIIT- Kota or IIIT- Vadodara or IIIT- Lucknow, choose IIIT-Lucknow any day!

IIIT Vadodara doesn’t own a permanent campus but it is known for its coding culture and the placement statistics are far better. Also, final-year students do get an opportunity for an internship to work in Amazon.

IIIT Kota is in the beautiful campus of MNIT, Jaipur spread in an area of 329 acres.

Want to have a fulfilling college life in the sense you want to enjoy being part of a college fest.

The factors which used for ordering the above institutes are:

  • Year of the establishment.
  • Placements records
  • Whether to have permanent campuses or not
  • Funding mode
  • Connectivity with the neighboring cities

Hence, before opting for any college just ask yourself, in which field or stream you want to get into so that you don’t regret it later. As 4 years duration is not too little to give and graduating from a reputed college with good placement and tag plays a vital role in your upcoming future.

Which is better among IIIT Lucknow for CSE, NIT Allahabad and HBTI Kanpur for chemical engineering?

NG
Nikita Gaur Posted On : April 12th, 2021
Studies at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow (2022)

Go for the one which is nearer. Although, IIIT Lucknow is a fair enough option to consider for chemical engineering. All the above-mentioned colleges are national-level recognized colleges.

  • The reason why IIIT Lucknow is slightly preferred over the others is because of its campus which is ever-growing and developing. 
  • The recruiters are always eyeing the campus and offering packages as high as 10 LPA, which makes it quite a welcome option for all the applicants and aspiring candidates.
  • Moreover, the campus will help you to focus on extra-curricular and other curricular activities too apart from academics, thus paying a lot of attention to the overall growth of the personality holistically and not just scoring good grades. 
  • The multiple competitions and championships happening are always intended to prepare the students holistically.

You can go for HBTI Kanpur only when you have no other options of IITs or NITs. It is a state-level college and not as reputable as the others.

How is the friend circle at IIIT Lucknow?

SS
Sayantika Sen Posted On : March 20th, 2021
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow (2023)

College time is the most joyful part of a student’s life and having a good friend circle is the cherry on the cake. It isn’t possible to share all of the wonderful experiences that one had during their campus life in the college years, but here are some of the pleasant memories from IIIT Lucknow:

  1. In 2019, IIIT Lucknow was not fully constructed and did not look impressive at all. To a student who was going to take admission in the college after 1.5 months, the first encounter with IIIT Lucknow building was not good. But it seemed like the campus is going to come out as a beautiful building soon.
  2. As expected, after 1.5 months at the time of admission, the college and the hostels looked top-notch and extremely rejuvenated from the outside and the inside as well.
  3. At IIIT Lucknow, you get to learn new things each day and create some beautiful memories with your batch mates.
  4. It is not difficult to have a nice friend circle because everybody is friendly.
  5. The coding and a bit of gaming culture among the hostel friends keep you engaged. The holidays and late nights are spent in a friend's room playing online games in groups. The room becomes cluttered with laptops, gaming consoles, adapters, chargers, and of course, people. These memories stay with you throughout life.
  6. It’s not like everybody is just a game geek and has nothing to do with studies, almost all of the students there keep honing their skills in AI, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Web designing, Web development, and other skills. Jokes apart, they are top-notch coders.

There is a perfect balance between gaming and studies. You get enough time to have fun and enjoy your life apart from your academics. Your friend’s circle plays a leading role in this.

Which is better, CSE at NIT Delhi or IIIT Lucknow?

SD
Sagar Dikshit Posted On : October 11th, 2023
lives in Lucknow

Without any second thoughts, IIIT Lucknow is a fairly better choice than NIT Delhi in terms of infrastructure, coding culture, and placements. Let us consider these criteria individually.

  • Infrastructure: NIT Delhi is quite far from the hostels so the commute time is high whereas IIIT Lucknow campus and hostels are in close proximity to each other. It hardly takes 5 minutes to reach the campus from your hostel room. Thus saves time. 
  • Coding Culture: IIIT Lucknow has a more extensive coding culture than NIT Delhi. Recently, a team of students from IIIT Lucknow secured 9th position in ACM ICPC regionals. The performance of the recent batches is also testimony to the excellent coding culture.
  • Placements: IIIT Lucknow is definitely better in this aspect too given that last year its higher package stood at INR 59 LPA. 

Overall, IIIT Lucknow is easily the better choice than NIT Delhi considering all major aspects.

IIIT Lucknow is one among the 20 IIITs that was set up by the central government in Public-Private Partnership model. In the year 2015, IIIT Lucknow started its first batch. 

The institute is mentored by IIIT Allahabad. When the campus of IIIT Lucknow was under construction, the classes were temporarily conducted at IIIT Allahabad. Students of IIIT Lucknow were being taught by the faculties of IIIT Allahabad and they got the same facilities of the institute.

Now, the campus of IIIT Lucknow is completely set up and classes are being conducted on their campus itself. Everything including grading is now separate from IIIT Allahabad. The new campus of IIIT Lucknow is set up on 50 acres of land in the heart of the city. All the facilities i.e. hostels, mess, sports clubs, labs, libraries, academic block, everything is there on the new campus.

What should I choose, IIIT Naya Raipur CSE, IIIT Lucknow IT, or IIIT Guwahati CSE?

VK
Vishal Kumar Posted On : April 17th, 2021
Studies at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow (2022)

In the given three colleges, IIIT Naya Raipur is the best. Comparing such an institute on the basis of whether students choose that particular college over the other would be wrong. IIIT NR can be described in three phrases: fast-paced, project-based, and pioneering. Choosing which college over the other can be your choice. But why you should choose IIIT Naya Raipur to have some reasons: IIIT Naya Raipur has its own campus. Among all the new IIITs and NITs, it has the best course structure. The institute is equipped with all the facilities that are required for the successful completion of the graduation. From labs to classroom and auditorium to sports club everything is super cool. IIIT NR has most of the faculties with immense experience in their field. They are so helpful and always guide you at each level of your course. It is the first institute in Central India that has introduced Data Science and AI in B.Tech. The institute is located 25km away from Raipur city. You’ll be close to the railway station though. So, there are no transport issues. The institute gives you better exposure than any other new NITs. You will learn, grow and enjoy your campus life thoroughly. Hopefully, this helps in rectifying your confusion about the college options.
