Questions Asked On NIT Meghalaya, Shillong

Which is better academically (preferably CSE and ECE branch), NIT Manipur. NIT Meghalaya, NIT Sikkim, NIT Nagaland or Tezpur University?

DG
Dona Ghosh, Posted On : November 11th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, Tezpur University (2020)

Before choosing an institute, think about what your requirements are. Here are some points that might help you make a decision.

  • If your aim is a job in a corporate sector then the NITs will definitely be better options. Opt for either NIT Meghalaya or Nagaland. 
  • Do not compare their placements with older NITs as it could prove disappointing.
  • Tezpur University (TU) is also known to provide good placement opportunities but it is more concentrated to only the CSE department. 
  • You may get placements from a few IT companies, but overall placements are concerned NITs are definitely better than TU.
  • Students who are interested in learning and exploring research fields can opt for TU as well. 
  • Tezpur University has very good faculty strength in ECE & CSE. 
  • The two departments are much older too. 
  • The CSE faculty and labs of TU are better than NIT Silchar. 
  • TU has got a good research environment as there are multiple departments of Science and Engineering, which is not the case of the mentioned NITs.

Therefore it is suggested that if you aim for an immediate job opportunity, go for NITs. For students who feel confident that they can get a job off campus or are more inclined towards academics and research can go for TU.

Niti Shukla, Posted On : October 25th, 2021
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Meghalaya (2016)

The choice generally depends on the certain individual and what he prefers. Both of these institutes started in the same year. They are both new NITs so they come with their fair share of pros and cons.

  • One of my friends did his Master’s from NIT Meghalaya. According to him, it still has a lot to work on and improve, be it their infrastructure, research grants, etc. 
  • The permanent campus is under construction.
  • The Electrical Engineering department has better-equipped labs than the other departments.
  • If you are willing to pursue a Master’s program then it is recommended you opt for any other college rather than the two mentioned.
Categories NIT Uttarakhand NIT Meghalaya
Course Fee 5.82 lakh 6.1 lakh
Placement Percentage 80% 80%
Highest CTC 15 LPA 11-12 LPA
Average CTC 6 LPA 6-7 LPA
Recruiting Companies Amazon, TCS, etc. Vedanta, L&T, etc.

NIT Uttarakhand and NIT Meghalaya are both tier 3 institutions, so the outcome of graduating from these will definitely differ. Though NIT Uttarakhand has been known to improve their placements every year. But they have a lot to develop to reach the status of tier 1 or 2 colleges.

I will get NIT Raipur, Puducherry, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Srinagar and Sikkim. Which one should I join?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : September 9th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

The answer to this question depends on your personal preferences and expectations from your college-to-be.

If you prioritize infrastructure, NIT Srinagar has one of the most beautiful campuses among all the NITs. On the other hand, NIT Puducherry has a better faculty than all your other options. 

Placement-wise, NIT Raipur has the best record among these colleges. However, the infrastructure and faculty of NIT Raipur are below average. But it is a good college for its sports facilities and senior-junior connections. There aren't any cases of ragging on its campus. Also, it offers better connectivity than the other NITs you’ve mentioned. 

As for the northeastern NITs that you have mentioned, most people don’t choose them. This is because of lesser connectivity and a lack of overall facilities at them. Their placements aren’t at par with the other NITs. Also, you’ll experience totally different weather and culture over there. So you might face difficulties in adjusting. 

Now the choice will also depend upon the branch you are offered at NIT Raipur, NIT Srinagar, and NIT Puducherry. If say, you are offered Biotech or Biomed at NIT Raipur and Civil at NIT Srinagar, without a doubt, go for the second option. Biotech and Biomed at NIT Raipur aren’t good choices.

Is it better to take ECE in NIT, Nagaland or EEE in NIT, Meghalaya (on the basis of future job prospects)?

RT
Rishi Tiwari Posted On : July 5th, 2021
Studied NIT Trichy (2019)

EEE and ECE are both totally different branches and both of them have their respective job opportunities. After a lot of research, I got to know about NIT Meghalaya and Nagaland. Let me discuss them, which might give you a better idea.

  • In today’s world ECE has more opportunities in the private sectors whereas EEE has got more opportunities in government sectors.
  • They also have different requirements for the jobs.
  • In ECE you just need to maintain a good CGPA, with the basics fully memorized and you are good to go.
  • For EEE and getting a government job like PSU, you need to apply for GATE and get a good rank and score.
  • Placement in the ECE stream is easier than the EEE stream.
  • The placements of NIT Meghalaya are a little above Nagaland.
  • You can change your course in NIT Meghalaya to ECE even after selecting EEE in the first semester.

Which is a good choice, PEC Chandigarh or NIT Meghalaya?

PS
Pavan Sharma Posted On : May 2nd, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2022)

PEC Chandigarh and NIT Meghalaya, neither of them are good colleges as of now due to some major reasons. 

NIT Meghalaya:

  • NIT Meghalaya is situated in the northeastern part of India and it is a newly built NIT. 
  • It now comes at the bottom among all the NITs of our country. This is because of the poor and temporary management faculty and it doesn't even have a campus of its own. 
  • The placements here are currently very poor as this college is newly built. It will take its time to get exposure and recognition which can attract top companies to visit for campus placements. 

PEC Chandigarh:

  • PEC Chandigarh is not a great college as students scoring lower ranks like 40k or more can also get admission at PEC.
  • The placement records are also very poor here. And being at PEC Chandigarh you will also not get the NITian tag which can be very helpful while looking for jobs. 

It is suggested to take a year drop and start preparing for JEE Main properly and aim to score higher marks. Appear for the January exam and not the April exam as almost every student targets for it and it can be very difficult to score higher rankings as competition will get very tough. January exam will have less competition and it will be easy to get higher rankings which can indeed open possibilities to get admission in one of the top IITs or NITs.
