Which is better, IITD civil or IIT Dhanbad for CS?

AS
Akrit Shaha Posted On : October 11th, 2023
Lives in Dhanbad

Since you haven’t mentioned the branch you are interested in, I will assume you have no particular preference. Now, the primary factor to consider is if you value the brand of the college or the branch of your choice. Consider the following points 

  • You can go for a less preferred branch at the top 5 IITs and then work hard for branch change. But this would be risky as branch change is very difficult.
  • If your target is to get placed with excellent packages, then choose the CSE branch, it has the best job opportunities.
  • You can also choose to work for noncore placements at the top 5 IITs. However, this will be very time-consuming as you have to manage both your noncore branch and CSE. 

The best option would be to choose IIT Dhanbad CSE. It’s true that it won’t offer the opportunities and exposure that the top 5 IITs would but for me branch is more important than the brand name of the college. So, choose according to your preferences.

Which IIT is better for civil, IIT Indore or IIT Patna?

NT
Nivedita Trivedi Posted On : June 17th, 2023
Lives in Indore

IIT Indore is one of the leading new IITs that has made its name because of its multiple achievements. Here is exactly why you should give more preference to IIT Indore than IIT Patna. 

  • The faculties are very approachable and cooperative. They guide you to do projects and even motivate you for research work. Additionally, they teach you tactics to clear GRE and GATE for top universities and PSU respectively. Such kind of guidance isn’t available at every institute.
  • The faculty-to-student ratio is great around 12 - 13 faculties for 40 students. This helps the students to get individual attention from faculty who track the personal and individual growth of every student. 
  • IIT Indore has ties with the University of Stuttgart, Germany enabling students to do internships in the second year. 
  • The students' demands are given due importance and the HODs bring all necessary changes demanded by the students to make things easy. 
  • IIT Indore being new has top-notch labs with all modern equipment and instruments.

In all, IIT Indore is a great choice for Civil Engineering.

Which one is better: IIT Kanpur civil, IIT Guwahati or IIT BHU mechanical?

SG
Sohini Ghose Posted On : February 15th, 2022
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati

If you are certain about your branch choice, then go for Civil at IIT Kanpur. If you aren’t sure about the branch then choosing IIT Kanpur among these three IITs will be better. In 2021, NIRF ranked IIT Kanpur #6 in the country. Although it’s not easy you can change your branch after a year. But you can’t change your college.

Which has the better faculty in civil engineering, IIT Guwahati or IIT BHU?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : May 5th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

Honestly speaking, this internet-controlled era hardly requires good teachers as everything is available on the net. You can get in touch with internationally proclaimed professors with just a click. As far as IIT faculty is concerned, all IITs have similar degree holders that are quality knowledgeable. 

A good teacher is the one that hones your talents to the fullest. They not only help you acquire knowledge but also shape your thinking style. Every institute has a few teachers that influence a student in a unique way. I am sure both IIT Guwahati and IIT BHU will have similar teachers. 

Ultimately, what matters is the environment and the activities that these colleges will provide us to expand our intellect and maximize our talents. Pay little focus on the faculty and look for the right field to enter that will help you shape your career. Personally, I would suggest you go for IIT Guwahati as it has more open-minded and active people in that area which will give you considerable freedom to think and perform.

Is civil engineering in LNCT Bhopal a good choice?

IY
Ishika Yadav Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied B.E. Mechanical Engineering,Lakshmi Narain College of Technology,Bhopal

LNCT is one of the best private colleges in Madhya Pradesh yet, pursuing civil engineering is futile. Following are the reasons for the same: 

  • The placement scenario for core branches is very bad. Hardly, any core company visits for recruitment. Even if they do, only 2-3 students are recruited. 
  • You have to look for a job on your own. Not many opportunities are provided for civil engineering. 
  • The department offers less practical knowledge and more theoretical knowledge.
  • The faculty members are not good at the college and the labs are not fully equipped. 
  • LNCT Bhopal has a rule for 75% attendance which will only waste your time. You won't be able to prepare for competitive exams like GATE till the 3rd year.
  • Preparing for these exams will be very hectic. Less attendance means fewer sessional marks which will degrade your CGPA.

LNCT Bhopal is not a good option if you are looking for a career in engineering. You will have to manage your studies on your own.

How is IET-DAVV, Indore for civil engineering?

SS
Sayantika Sen Posted On : March 17th, 2021
Studied at Institute of Engineering and Technology, DAVV (2019)

To be very honest, Civil Engineering is a new branch relative to any other branch at IET DAVV. This brings the biggest drawback that there are no permanent professors for the Civil branch. The same situation is in the labs as well. The labs are well equipped but there is no experienced guide or lab assistant who can assist or demonstrate things to the students. 

Though, being an engineering student, you must be well prepared for the fact that you have to study by yourself. At the IET DAVV campus, despite having better facilities and faculties, they have the same condition. Although, some of the faculties are very brilliant and try to cover the syllabus in the most refined way. You may get less practical exposure here particularly in the civil engineering branch but if you are determined enough, you will get to learn a lot. 

Categories

Civil Engineering at IET-DAVV, Indore

Course Fee

2.74 lakh

Placement Percentage

93%

Highest CTC

24 LPA

Average CTC

4.21 LPA

Recruiting Companies

Mu Sigma, Trident, Adobe, Accenture, TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Prism Cement etc.

You will also get sufficient time to prepare for competitive exams like GATE, CAT, etc. while you are pursuing B.Tech from IET DAVV because attendance is not a major concern here. 

The placements depend on how actively you participate in them and your academic records are good. If you fulfil the eligibility criteria, you will definitely get a package ranging in between 4-5 LPA which is quite better in such a core field. 

One important thing that you should not miss out on is that IET lets you grow, it is not like any other college which will load you with many assignments. Therefore, If you get a chance to get into IET DAVV, it’s a big yes!

Should I take NIT Goa for Electrical and Electronics Engineering or GEC for Civil Engineering? I am interested in both.

AS
Ashu Sethiya Posted On : August 25th, 2021
B.Tech Electrical and Electronics Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Goa (2024)

Before diving into any conclusion, it is important that you understand the basic difference between B.Tech and B.E degrees. Following which, you have to clarify the doubts you have regarding both NIT Goa and Goa Engineering College.

  • If you weigh the general brand value that arrives with the NIT tag, you will then already be more exposed to the industrial demands and explore better opportunities at NIT.
  • However, there has been a genuine depreciation at Goa Engineering College. 
  • You can possibly go out, looking for particular job offers after the completion of the B.E degree but you will obtain better placements by the college cell itself. 
  • When talking about the faculty, there are several Ph.D graduates from most of the top institutions who have been teaching at NIT Goa. 
  • The highest salary package was 16 LPA at NIT Goa. 
  • On the other hand, at GEC, you might or might not secure placement. 
  • Their highest package sometimes does not reach even up to 7 LPA. 
Categories EEE at NIT Goa Civil at GEC
Course Fee 5.38 lakh 2.90 lakh
Highest CTC 16 LPA 6-7 LPA
Average CTC 6-8 LPA 3.5 LPA
Recruiting Companies TCS, Infosys, Bosch, Schneider Electric, etc. IBM, Wipro, TCS, Tata Steel, etc.

Therefore, it is suggested that you opt for NIT Goa, as it will provide you with better opportunities. They have an active placement cell, which not only helps with placements but also conducts seminars, internships and industrial visits.

How is the placement of civil engineering at MSU Baroda?

PR
Palak Raina Posted On : December 31st, 2022
B.E. in Civil Engineering, The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda (Graduated 2016)

The answer is below average. The placements are not ideal, but this depends on several factors.

The primary thing is you should possess first class (60%) in aggregate (or 60% in each semester for 1-2 companies like tata motors.). As is well known, MSU's results are not as good as those of other universities, with only 50-60% of students receiving first-class honors (60% or higher). In other universities, you can easily get 80-85%.

Everyone says that MSU attracts a large number of MNC companies for recruitment. However, there are only 3-4 nice MNCs that offer nice packages and recruit only 3-5 students. They don't always hire any of the students. The maximum package is approximately 5-5.5 LPA. On average, you can get a package of 3-4 LPA. Then there are some other companies that offer you between 2.5 and 3.5 LPA. There are 2-3 non-core companies that recruit with average packages ranging from 2.5 to 4 LPA. Score high and strive to remain in the top 15-20. Your chances of being placed would improve.
