I have a few friends from both NIT Trichy and CEG and here is what I gathered from my conversations with them.
Overall, NIT Trichy will be a better choice than CEG.
If you look beyond the IIT tag lens, you will realize NIT Trichy is actually a great institute with excellent opportunities. The institute does well in providing both placement and higher education opportunities. Some other things that make it a good choice are
NIT Trichy might not have the IIT tag but it certainly has something that even the new IITs do not, a well organized and student-friendly management!
The packages offered to the students of NIT Trichy who are pursuing M.Tech ME according to what branches they are in are as follows:
Finally, most of the students in the civil branch are not seen in high regard for me. The placement percentage is from 50 to 70, unfortunately.
Top NITs like Surathkal, Trichy, and Warangal are considered close to if not at par with old IITs and definitely better than some new IITs.
Unless you are from the top IITs, admission to foreign universities for an MS does not depend on the college you are from. Many students from top IITs go to foreign universities every year. For non-IITians what matters is the project, internships, UG research quality, and extracurriculars. In fact, the sole reason IITians make it to top foreign universities is their strong determination and grasp of these aspects. Yes, the IIT alumni network does help you in the research internship but ultimately it’s your efforts that matter.
So even if you are not an IITian, keep working hard and you are likely to get admission to top foreign universities.
Studying architecture at NIT Trichy can be an enriching experience. NIT Trichy offers a five-year undergraduate program in Architecture, which is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the field.
Here are some key highlights of studying architecture at NIT Trichy:
Studying architecture at NIT Trichy can be a fulfilling and rewarding experience. The combination of a strong curriculum, experienced faculty, and excellent facilities can prepare students for a successful career in architecture.
The required cutoff partially depends upon the difficulty level of the NIMCET paper since it varies from one year to another.
However, for the previous two years, NITK was the conductor of the NIMCET exam and was actually announcing the ranks based on the scores predetermined by the authorities. For further securing admission at NIT Trichy, you are required to score around 800 or above if only the paper is comparatively easy and you belong from the general category.
In case the paper is somewhat moderate in its difficulty level, then achieving 700 and above can help you secure admission to NIT Trichy. But, if it is undeniably difficult, then 500+ is supposed to be quite enough for securing a seat at NIT Trichy.
I am assuming that you are asking about core civil job profiles. According to my friend at NIT Trichy the placement record for the Civil Engineering branch is quite good. Here is the placement trend for the branch.
Year | Civil Engineering |
2019-20 | 81.7% |
2018-19 | 92.1% |
2017-18 | 83.6% |
According to the placement highlights of the past few years for Civil Engineering the highest CTC offered by the recruiting companies is around 17 LPA. During the placement drive 2020, the average package offered was INR 6 LPA.
More job offers are made to the civil engineers from companies such as Oil and other related companies. The salary package offered by a few conglomerates like L&T varies from INR 6.2 LPA for IITians, INR 5.11 LPA for NITians, to INR 3.6 for Local/Private Colleges. This is the general trend. It varies depending on the academic year.
While leaving for the NIT Trichy hostel, there are a few things that you should pack as a fresher. These include:
If you carry these things when you arrive at the NIT Trichy hostel, you will have a good time without worrying about unnecessary stuff.
Yes, NIT Trichy, Warangal, and Surathkal are better options for MTech than IIT Patna because of their superior location. The placement scenario at any institute is directly proportional to its location and proximity to tech hubs.
A location imparts better industry exposure that forms the foundation for any tech college. Consider the location as the primary factor while choosing your college. The reason I said NITs are better than IIT Patna today is because of their location and the quality of recruiters they attract as a result.
IIT Patna is a great institute but lacks the recognition yet and thus most recruiters don't visit it. So, look beyond the IIT tag a make a wise decision.
NIT Trichy is a really good college when it comes to most NITs. But, you will only get admission through JEE Main. You will definitely have to score well if you plan to secure admission here.
The cut-offs for NIT Trichy in CSE are as follows:
Categories | Male | Female | ||
Home State | Other state | Home State | Other state | |
General | 5235 | 1373 | 4075 | 2371 |
SC | 1300 | 138 | 1435 | 420 |
OBC | 2165 | 357 | 4085 | 1060 |
EWS | 2068 | 165 | 2489 | 305 |
You will have to do your best and strive a little hard in order to secure your seat. Getting into core branches is quite tough especially for branches like ECE and mechanical. As long as you meet the above cut-offs, you should be good to go. Analyze your paper well, set a dedicated schedule and at the end, you will surely be able to crack the JEE.
