AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : September 12th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

Irrespective of whichever branch you are getting the preference order for the aforementioned NITs is NIT A > NIT B > NIT R. 

However, your interest plays a big role in determining the right branch for you. Some choose a branch they are genuinely interested in while some go for a branch that provides better opportunities. 

In the first case, their passion leads them in their career while in the second case, the plethora of opportunities will be the guiding light. Students are in general confused about choosing a good college over a good branch or vice versa. I will advise you to always prioritize your interests in that case because you will have to pursue that field not just for 4 years of graduation but throughout life. 

Here is a brief overview of these colleges:

Particulars

NIT Raipur

NIT Bhopal

NIT Allahabad

Fees

INR1.41 Lakhs (BTech 1st Year Fees)

INR 1.54 Lakhs (BTech 1st Year Fees)

Master of Technology Computer Science, Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior (2019)

A 4-year CSE from IIITDM Jabalpur will be better than that of IIIT Gwalior. It is a fairly new branch at the institute and students of this branch compete with 5-year IPG steam students which are the main ruler of the institute. 

A brief comparison of the courses mentioned in the question is given below. 

Particulars 

IIITDM Jabalpur

IIITM Gwalior 

MANIT Bhopal

Average CTC

9.9 LPA

14 LPA

6.23 LPA

27 LPA

Top Recruiters 

Amazon, Microsoft, L&T, American Express, etc. 

Paytm, Myntra, Amazon, Adobe, etc.

Which one should I choose, IIIT Allahabad (IT), MNIT Allahabad (IT), NIT Bhopal (CSE), or NIT Jalandhar (CSE)?

RR
Rohit Ranjan Posted On : April 9th, 2021
CSE at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2017-present)

IIIT Allahabad is better than MNIT Allahabad if you are interested in coding. Although NITs and IIIT Allahabad both are centrally funded technical institutes. The only difference is the course curriculum as IIIT Allahabad focuses only on IT and ECE. Due to this, minor subjects like Chemistry, Applied Mechanics, Engineering Drawing are dropped in 1st and 2nd semester itself. 

NITs have a long legacy making it more reputable with strong alumni across all domains. On the other hand, IIITA is a young institution and follows innovative academic policies. Its alumni members are even present in Silicon Valley in a short span of time.

You can decide your own priorities in the career. If you are interested in coding culture and look forward to great internships and placements with a small cozy campus, you should prefer IIIT Allahabad. You should opt for MNIT Allahabad if you are interested in meeting new people with diverse backgrounds. It will help you in enhancing your personality. 

If you ask me, my vote goes for IIIT Allahabad on all these below parameters.

  • College Life: IIIT Allahabad is an institute of national importance, and boasts one of the best campuses in the country. Whereas, MNNIT is not even on the edge.
  • Placements: 96% of the students got placed and received job offers from more than 120 companies. All major Computer Science companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Adobe come to IIIT Allahabad's campus and make offers.

The following table shows the placement statistics of IIIT Allahabad:

M.Tech

Median CTC

Average CTC

14.45 LPA

IIIT Allahabad has placements in Google Mountain View/ Europe/ Australia/Japan from almost every Batch from the past 4-5 years. IIIT Allahabad was preferred by these companies because a lot of alumni already worked in these companies and better industry perception has been built up.

The strength in NIT-A is approximately twice as compared to IIIT-A. And every year this strength keeps increasing. As you know that the quality decreases with the increase in strength, I would again suggest you choose IIIT-A.

Should I join MANIT (NIT Bhopal) Chemical Engineering while I get CSE at IIIT Sri city? I've no particular inclination towards any branch.

AS
Ankita Sinha Posted On : June 15th, 2021
B.E. from Panjab University, Chandigarh (2020)

Why do you want to opt for engineering? Is it because you enjoy Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics? If that’s the reason, then there are two possibilities for you.

Joining IIIT Sri City for CSE-

  • You can sharpen your coding skills and work better on Computer Science learning more about ethical hacking, cybersecurity, etc. This is how CSE would prove to be fruitful to you.
  • But if we perceive the other side of the situation, if you do not hold any interest here, you might find it hard to cope with and eventually lose interest. Since IIIT Sri City is a new college, it will not be able to impart the essential communication/soft skills to you.

Joining Chemical Engineering at MANIT Bhopal-

  • Apart from developing a great interest in Chemical Engineering, you have the opportunities to either go for higher education via GRE or ensure placement via GATE.
  • But again, comparing the other side of the situation, if Chemical Engineering does not spark your interest, you can go for other domains like Management. MANIT offers all the adequate communication/soft skills that would be essential for that.

If you have no particular inclination, then choosing CSE may be better. As it has two domains, i.e. coding and non-coding. Plus, the internet is full of great ebooks and tutorials to teach you.

What should I choose, mechanical engineering at MANIT Bhopal or CSE at NIT (Manipur, Mizoram, etc.)? People say it would be better if you choose CSE.

AM
Annindita Mukherjee Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Studied at Times School of Journalism Delhi (2019)

Having friends studying in both the institutes, I can say that MANIT Bhopal and NIT both are good in every criterion. When it comes to choosing between colleges and courses, the first preference should be given to the course you want to study.

  • Speaking of courses in between Mechanical and CSE branches, CSE has more advantages in today’s world.
  • It is the most demanded course in the field of engineering and has a lot to offer in the real and corporate world.
  • CSE branch has further specializations and has more scope than any other branch in engineering.
  • MANIT Bhopal and NIT are almost on the same level with NIT leading slightly due to its brand recognition, placement stats, and records.
  • Both the institutes have good faculties and a revised curriculum.
  • CSE branch gets to see more offers for placements and internships from various tech giants and from many MNC’s.
  • NIT also has the brand name attached to it so it will prove useful in the future when you will look for a job.

In the given choices CSE has better growth and demand than Mechanical and NIT is slightly better than MANIT Bhopal. So the clear choice here will be CSE at NIT unless you wish to study mechanical then the other is fine too. Choose a college that is good which includes not just the NIT tag but also about management, faculty, students.
