Which is a better choice, CSE at CGC LANDRAN or CCET Chandigarh?

JS

Studied at Chandigarh Engineering College (2019)

There are a plethora of parameters based on which one can decide which college is better than the other. But at the same time, your choices and your priorities also matter to decide which college you will opt for. You might not get all the fulfillments in the college checklist but you can set your priorities. Coming onto the question, if you are willing to decide among CGC Landran and CCET Chandigarh, you are comparing two very different colleges. 

Let’s decide based on different criteria: 

Placement: If you are one among the students to whom the ultimate goal is to get into a reputed company after Engineering, CGC Landran will be the right choice. You know why? Go through the placement records given below: 

Placement Stats

CGC Landran

CCET Chandigarh

Highest Package

35 Lakhs

12 Lakhs

Average Package

7 Lakhs

4.07 Lakhs

The placement stats of CGC Landran is way better than CCET Chandigarh. 

If you want the stamp of Panjab University on your degree, then you can opt for CCET Chandigarh. Although, CCET will not provide you with any extra benefits/royalties like Panjab University. Instead of CCET, UIET is a better choice. 

From the study point of view, there is not much difference between these two colleges.

Should I take production engineering at MNNIT Allahabad and try for a branch change or should I take CS in NIT Raipur?

VM
Vanas Mishra Posted On : April 29th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, Allahabad (2020)

There will be a handful of seats available for branch change and branch modifications do not only occur when you fill in a form. You will have other brilliant and ambitious students to compete with. 

Choosing the right branch:

If you are facing trouble choosing the right branch, you should remember the following things.

  • Don’t opt for a branch just because of the higher CTC, or college brand name, etc. Because the degree you will get is for life. So, make sure you are interested to work in the field that you are choosing. 
  • Also, go through the syllabus given on the official website and see if you can do the coursework for the branch of your choosing. 

The table below gives a brief overview of the two courses.

Parameters

MNIT Allahabad 

NIT Raipur

Highest CTC

49 LPA

Average CTC

10.28 LPA

My brother was a student of MNNIT Allahabad and for his 1st year, the highest CGPA was 9.67, while many scored 9. So, the chances of branch upgradation are quite slim.

In terms of placement, faculty and infrastructure which one is better for CSE: Kalyani Government Engineering College or Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College?

JG
Joyita Ghosh Posted On : May 5th, 2021
B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Kalyani Government Engineering College, graduated, 2020

A friend of mine has told me that CSE in Kalyani Government Engineering College is better than that in Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College. It can be owed to the location of both places. Kalyani is an IT hub and it is not far from Kolkata. On the other hand, it will take you twelve hours to reach Jalpaiguri from Kolkata by train. It goes without saying that CSE of Kalyani Government Engineering College is better and obviously more preferred to that of Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College.

The placements in both colleges are pretty much the same. The average package of both colleges is around 3.5 LPA in IT companies. It has to be said that more students get placed from KGEC.

KGEC is the more sought after institute because it attracts the better-ranked students. Most of the students whose ranks are under 3000 are from Kolkata, Hooghly, North 24 and South 24 Parganas regions. The faculty and infrastructure of both institutions are also pretty much similar.

Aarti Ahuja Posted On : August 16th, 2023

There are many reasons for suggesting you go for MNNIT Allahabad CSE over NIT Rourkela CSE.

  • MNNIT Allahabad has one of the oldest CSE branches so it boasts of a rich coding culture.
  • The institute enjoys good connectivity via airways and railways, and thus the quality and number of recruiters are better than Rourkela which doesn’t-even have an airport. 
  • MNNIT Allahabad is the best NIT in North India considering both home state and open state cutoffs.
  • MNNIT Allahabad CSE placements are much better with the average standing at INR 27.57 LPA while NIT Rourkela CSE average package was recorded at INR 21.87 LPA. 
  • MNNIT Allahabad is the 4th best NIT after Trichy, Warangal, and Surathkal.

These were some plausible reasons to choose MNNIT Allahabad over NIT Rourkela for CSE.

Why is CGC Landran not giving admissions in CSE to students with less than 75% in 12?

KS
Kamala Sharma Posted On : April 20th, 2021
B.Tech CSE from Chandigarh Group of Colleges (2018)

This is basically the admission criteria for management quota which is relaxed after some time. They could even ask for donations later. You can secure admission to CGC Landran in the following two methods: 

  • You can appear for the JEE after which most students apply for the PTU Counseling system. This method mainly ensures that you get admission to the college without donations. This is only if PTU allows a seat to you in the college of your choice. 
  • One of my friends went for admission in CSE in CGC with 67.4% in 10+2 through PTU counseling. My sister was admitted to CSE via PTU too. His profile was 58% in 10+2 with a good JEE Score that was close to 50-60 marks.
  • On the other hand, if you have not appeared for the JEE, you might have to wait for a little while longer. Usually, the college will provide you with admission to CSE themselves and you might not have to donate any money. You can try visiting the college for 2 to 4 weeks after classes have commenced for the first semester.

They are generally on the lookout for admissions and at the start, claim that they have limited seats. They might push you in the direction of mechanical, electronics and IT but in my opinion, you should stick to the field of your choice. The ‘limited seats’ notion is mainly a business gimmick and out to fool people. You will definitely get the branch of your choice. You might have to persevere a little more for it, but it will be in your hands.

Which is better for a B.Tech (computer science), Galgotias University or Amity University and why?

MK
Mohit Kumar Posted On : May 10th, 2021
B.Tech Civil Engineering, Galgotias University (2018)

Galgotias University is definitely a better choice for a BTech degree in CSE. I have friends at both Galgotias and Amity. Based on what I heard about the CSE department at these campuses, it is suggested to choose Galgotias. 

  • Amity is quite costly and the quality of education is not on the same level as Galgotias. If you want a good college life and you can afford the hefty fee, go for Amity. 
  • Galgotias on the other hand stresses a lot on academics. There are many extra-curricular activities on campus that will help you in improving your overall personality. It also offers an exciting campus life. 
  • For CSE, Galgotias has maintained a good placement record over the years. It has tie-ups with many reputed IT companies that work in favor at the time of placements. 

The table below gives a brief insight into the CSE program offered by these institutes. 

Parameters 

Galgotias University 

Amity University 

Average CTC 

8.75 LPA

4.5 LPA

Highest CTC

30 LPA

Top Recruiters

HCL Group, Adobe Systems, Capgemini 

So, quality of education, placement statistics all these factors tips the balance in the favor of Galgotias University.

There are few differences between the CSE and the IT branch in MNNIT in Allahabad. One of my friends studies at MNNIT, so I can give you the basic difference between these two branches.

  1. Academically: 5th and 8th Semester subjects of CSE and IT branch are different. 
  2. Learning: There is not much difference on the learning basis. Core subjects are the same in both departments. In both departments, you will learn through self-study. 
  3. Placements: There is no difference in placement of CSE and IT branches. Several companies come for placement for both departments, giving you several opportunities.
