Questions Asked On LNMIIT, Jaipur

It is known to everyone that there is a prevalent competition between LNMIIT and Thapar University. But as some of my friends studied at Thapar University, I can say that it stands out for many reasons. 

• The faculty of Thapar University is excellent when compared to other colleges in India.
• COE is considered the best department among others.
• They have amazing research facilities in every department, mechanical to electrical. They are at par with IITs and BITS.
• They have clubs and societies both technical and non-technical. The technical societies include Team Fateh, OWASP, CCS, IEEE SC, IIEE, etc.
• Thapar is one of the oldest colleges with very well maintained infrastructure.
• Placements are really good at Thapar.
• The only thing that is a bit much is the course fees.

Thus, we can conclude that Thapar University is not only popular for its infrastructure and other related facilities but at the same time, the university is well-known for the decent placement offers that marks an edge for every student.

IIIT Delhi is clearly the best choice out of the three options especially if we are talking about CSE. Your preference order should be the following.

IIIT Delhi (Indraprastha) > Thapar University > LNMIIT Jaipur

Cutoff: (IIIT D > Thapar University)

The quality of the students also has an effect on how the college performs and also in its rankings. The cutoff for CSE at IIIT Delhi is around 200-225+. Thapar University admits students with JEE Mains marks more than 170 for students’ outside Punjab and 150 marks for students from Punjab. The cutoff indicates IIIT D offers a better peer group. 

Placements: 

• In terms of placements and internships, IIIT Delhi tops the list. The avg. package for the CSE branch in IIIT Delhi is around 15 lakhs per annum. 
• Overall avg package in Thapar University is around 8 lakhs per annum and for CSE Branch is around 10 lakhs per annum with a placement rate of 94 percent.

If you are getting CSE at LNMIIT, go for it. Do not choose a branch just for the sake of the NIT tag. After completing the degree you may only have placement options in MNCs like TCS, Infosys, etc. I know many people from unknown branches of IIIT working in service companies. So, you get the idea. 

• If you are one of the top students at LNMIIT Jaipur, you can easily secure a placement package of around 7-8 LPA. 
• According to the recent industry trends, for securing good placement offers you need to be good at coding. And LNMIIT has a developed coding culture. 

The table below shows a brief overview of the two institutes.

If you have the option, you can join NIT Raipur CSE too. The placement will be slightly better as compared to LNMIIT.
