Questions Asked On NIT Uttarakhand, Srinagar Garhwal

Which one is better-NIT Uttarakhand or NIT Meghalaya?

NS
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.

Should I join NIT Uttrakhand, IIIT Ranchi or Thapar University for CSE?

SJ
Santosh Joshi Posted On : March 18th, 2021
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Uttarakhand (2019)

For CSE, NIT Uttarakhand is a decent option. Given below is a brief review of NIT Uttarakhand.

Criticism:

  • NIT Uttarakhand is in a remote place, away from the city. So if you are not used to living an isolated life, it will be difficult for you to adjust. Even traveling to Srinagar Garhwal will be difficult.
  • The infrastructure of the college is not that great to appease you. It will feel dismaying. It is improving gradually.

Brownie Points:

  • NIT is a brand. It has special importance and value to the nation. The CSE branch is always advancing and can add special talents to the industry. In this institute too, there are many talented students.
  • The faculty of the institute is from renowned institutes like IITs/NITs. The professors are highly qualified and teach students proficiently on-line with the GATE syllabus.
  • Students are from diverse backgrounds. They are not just from Uttarakhand, but also all other states.
  • The placements of the CSE branch are elevating every year. Different recruiters give different offers to students. The recent placement statistics of the institute is as follows.

Highest Package

10.5 LPA

Average Package

6.8 LPA

  • Many companies give internship opportunities with PPOs to the students too.

No matter how much the infrastructure lacks, the students get rewarded in the future if they work hard. Currently, IIIT Ranchi and Thapar may have better infrastructure or even placement records, but NIT Uttarakhand is improving with time and will definitely improve a lot in coming years.

Which should I prefer for ECE, NIT Uttarakhand or NIT Patna?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 31st, 2023
lives in New Delhi

NIT Patna is a very old and well-established college. On the other hand, NIT Uttarakhand is very new (est. 2010). As a former ECE student at NIT Uttarakhand, here are my observations on my college-

  1. Though in a much better condition now, NIT Uttarakhand is operating from a temporary campus.
  2. Sports and cultural activities have increased from before.
  3. The number of teachers in various departments has increased and the administration has become more flexible.
  4. The placement scenario has improved and is getting better with time.
  5. Elections are held for different positions in the institution. Thus, students are ultimately in charge.
  6. The ECE faculty is very supportive and learned, especially the HOD.
  7. Lab facilities have improved with more equipment and research facilities. However, the labs have no ACs.
  8. Classes are conducted from 8 to 6. This will allow you to become more disciplined with time management because you’ll have assignments to complete, errands to run, and so on.

NIT Uttarakhand isn’t a bad choice as it will give you great learning opportunities. But NIT Patna is way older and will provide you with better placements and facilities. Thus, I recommend you choose NIT Patna for your ECE.

Which is better, IET Lucknow ME or NIT Uttarakhand ECE?

SP
Shubham Pandey Posted On : August 20th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow (2020)

NIT Uttarakhand is the last choice of the majority of students among all other NITs. It has the lowest ranking, poor placement records, and no awards or academic excellence. It is considered a Tier 4 institute. 

On the other hand, IET Lucknow is a prestigious institution, especially for engineering students. It is one of the best UPSEE institutes in Lucknow. Moreover, it is considered academically strong and has earned good recognition.

Check the following table for a brief insight on relevant statistics of both institutes:

Particulars IET Lucknow NIT Uttarakhand
Total Fees 3.44 Lakhs 5.87 Lakhs
Highest Package 36 LPA 10.5 LPA
Average Package 5 LPA 6.8 LPA
Total Offers 100+ 90

Generally, ECE is better than ME but it applies to the institutes which are nearly on the same level. In this scenario, pursuing ME from IET Lucknow would be the better option in terms of placements, a recognition that would later help you in finding a job through off-campus placement.

Which/why is best for CSE: IIIT Una or NIT Uttarakhand?

AK
Ayan Khandelwal Posted On : April 1st, 2021
Studied CSE from UIET Chandigarh (2019)

One of my friends is currently enrolled for the 2022 batch at IIIT UNA. He has completed two years already with a rank below 30,000 and he got into CSE, if you have a rank between 30-36k then you won't have many other options available. 

He had the option to choose between Thapar Institute of Technology, IIIT UNA, and UIET Chandigarh, and unfortunately, the choice of IIIT UNA was a regrettable decision. Firstly it does not have a good rank; secondly, you may see why as follows-

  • NIT Hamirpur is the mentor institute at which my friend’s batch studies as part of the 2022 batch which is the only batch there without any seniors, labs, or societies.
  • Administration-The institute lacks efficient management, it is headed by a dictatorial administrator who likes to make changes without prior announcement. Recently, a fine of INR 5000/subject was imposed on students for a shortage of attendance.
  • Tuition Fees- For each year of the academic program, you'd have to deposit a high Tuition Fee of INR 2.05 LPA, which is steep because of the lack of facilities.
  • College Environment- If you're seeking a happening campus life at IIIT UNA, then you'd be disappointed. There are hardly 2 or 3 clubs like Aavesh and Force, but joining them will be difficult owing to their eligibility criteria.

Lastly, I'd like to highlight the placement scenario as the placement cell clearly states that they are not responsible for the placement provision. Only CSE and IT departments receive some companies, for ECE there are only coding jobs available.

So, Thapar Institute of Technology and UIET Chandigarh are much better in terms of opportunities provided, college life, and alumni support.

Should I choose NIT Uttrakhand over NIT Srinagar?

PM
Palak Mitra Posted On : January 14th, 2021

Between the given institute NIT Srinagar is definitely better in every term. The table below gives a brief highlight of the two NITs.

Particulars

NIT Srinagar

NIT Uttarakhand

Average CTC

INR 9-10 LPA

INR 3.3-5.5 LPA

UG- JEE, PG/Ph.D.- GATE

Some of the reasons why you should choose NIT Srinagar over NIT Uttarakhand are discussed below.

  • NIT Srinagar is ranked 201 for Engineering by NIRF 2020. Whereas NIT Uttarakhand has no NIRF’20 ranking. Which should answer your question.
  • NIT Uttarakhand does not have a good placement record. The highest salary package offered at the institute hardly goes up to 5-7 LPA.

Even though NIT Uttarakhand has shifted its campus to the MNIT Jaipur Satellite campus, it still lags behind NIT Srinagar in most aspects. If you do not have any personal reason to join NIT Uttarakhand, it will be better to go for NIT Srinagar.

Which is better: NIT Uttarakhand or UIET Chandigarh?

AG
Aakash Gupta Posted On : January 12th, 2021
B.E. in Mechanical Engineering from UIET, Panjab University (2019)

NIT Uttarakhand though sounds promising due to the NIT tag but UIET Chandigarh is definitely better than the former. UIET Chandigarh is affiliated to PU (Panjab University), which has a NIRF ranking of 72 whereas NIT Uttarakhand is yet to make it to the NIRF ranking list.

Here are some of the reasons that made me choose UIET over NIT Uttarakhand:

  1. UIET is affiliated to PU, which is one of the oldest and finest universities in India. Unlike, NIT Uttarakhand which is comparatively a newer institute.
  2. NIT Uttarakhand is located in the northern part of India, Srinagar. It is close to nature but away from the industrial hub. Unlike UIET which is located in the capital city of Punjab, Chandigarh. This provides exposure to industries and opportunities.
  3. UIET Chandigarh encourages students to participate in various activities preparing them for their careers ahead.
  4. The admissions in both of these colleges are through JEE Main.
  5. Both of these colleges also offer scholarships on a need and merit basis.

The facts in the table will give you an idea about their placements and course fees -

Average CTC

7 LPA

Recruiting Companies

Capgemini, IBM, Infosys, HCL.

Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Goldman Sachs.

The only drawback of UIET is the poor campus infrastructure. Whereas, NIT Uttarakhand being a newer institute is well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. The infrastructure of NIT Uttarakhand is far better than UIET Chandigarh.

So, it’s a clear choice for you, to go for UIET. The only reason why someone will prefer NIT Uttarakhand over UIET Chandigarh is either for their love of mountains and a beautiful campus or the NIT tag.

Should I take IT in UIET Chandigarh or ECE in NIT UK?

RB
Rani Bharadwaj Posted On : July 6th, 2021
Studied at NIT Trichy (2019)

Assuming that you opted for IT in UIET Chandigarh, let us move fast forward to three years and look at how your career might shape out:

  • You can easily get placed in companies like Deloitte, ZS, or any other consultancy firm with salary packages of around INR 6 to 7 LPA if your communication skills are good.
  • If your communication skills are not good enough, you can expect to be placed in IT companies or any start-ups based in Chandigarh city itself. You will be offered salary packages of around INR 3 to 4 LPA.
  • However, since big IT companies like Paytm, Amazon, Flipkart, etc., do not visit the campus during the placement drives, there are fewer chances of you getting placed in a good IT company.
  • Now, assuming that you opt for ECE at NIT UK, you will probably have to sit for the same IT companies and accept the offers.
  • This is because there are very few ECE core sector jobs in India and it is pretty difficult to find one.

I will suggest you opt for ECE at NIT UK solely because of the NIT tag that you will be getting. Being a NITian, myself I can say that it will be of benefit to you in finding a job or even if you want to go for higher studies like MBA or MS.

Which is better NIT Uttarakhand ECE or IIIT Bhopal ECE?

SP
Sushmita Pahari Posted On : July 15th, 2021
B.Tech CSE, NIT UK (2018)

NIT Uttarakhand ECE is definitely a better choice than IIIT Bhopal ECE. NIT UK is a well-established institute with good placement records, while IIIT Bhopal was established just a few years back.

NIT Uttarakhand has the following advantages over IIIT Bhopal.

  • NIT Uttarakhand is an old and established institute and has already gained recognition throughout India.
  • The academics are better with experienced faculties.
  • Decent placements record in all branches especially CSE and ECE.
  • Better connection with the industry so can impart more practical knowledge to the student for the real issue in the industry.
  • According to the recent placement drives, the average CTC offered at NIT UK and IIIT Bhopal is 6.8 LPA and 4.5 LPA.
  • IIIT Bhopal does not even have its own campus yet. The upside of choosing IIIT Bhopal is you will get to learn from the faculties of MANIT Bhopal.
  • Bhopal is also a good location with better connectivity to the other parts of India.

If you are okay going to a fairly new institute, then you can go for IIIT Bhopal. But if you want a convenient college life then choosing NIT UK will be better.
