B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering,Heritage Institute of Technology,Kolkata (2020)

HIT is among the top engineering colleges in West Bengal, affiliated with MAUKAT. The institute is awarded as the Most Preferred Engineering Institute of 2020.

One of my friends, an alumnus of the college, reviewed that the faculty is excellent. They are highly qualified and carry ample industry experience. Most of them are doctorates and well-known in their field of study.

At his time, the discussions about the facility happened in Macha, the cafeteria of the college. The best professor that he was under was Mr. Nirmaan Ganguly (NG sir). He was the best among all the other professors. Apart from him, the others include Mr. Amitava Hatilal of the electrical department and Mr. Parth sir in the computer science department.

These were the few teachers from the past whom he could recall even after five years of graduating.

What would be a comparison between CSE at IIIT Delhi and IIIT Bangalore?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : October 19th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Based on my research, I will present some points to support the opinion that I will put by the end of my answer-

  • Faculty- The faculty of IIIT Delhi is considered to be one of the best in India. The college offers top-quality classroom teaching. But even IIITB has good professors. 
  • Curriculum- IIITD offers the most relevant and flexible curriculum for B.Tech CSE. They will teach you core CS from the first year itself. Even IIITB teaches core CS from the first year, but it started with iM.Tech quite recently, in 2017. IIITB doesn’t offer B.Tech courses. 
  • Funding and perks- As IIIT Delhi is a state government-run institute, it gets funding and other perks.
  • Infrastructure and Internet facilities- Being a new institute, IIIT Delhi has better infrastructure and Internet facilities. 

IIIT Bangalore is a better choice for an M.Tech CS, based on curriculum, placements, etc. But as far as UG studies are concerned, B.Tech CS at IIIT Delhi is better than iM.Tech CS at IIIT Bangalore.

Akriti Jain Posted On : October 14th, 2021
B.Com from Stella Maris College, Chennai (2019)

I have a friend from Stella Maris College Chennai. Here is what she told me about the admission process at the institute. 

Shortlisted candidates from round-1 are called for an interview. In the interview round, you need to bring all the original certificates. The following are the questions that they generally ask. 

  • Tell me about yourself?
  • What is your passion?
  • Why did you choose Stella?

The interviewer is usually a faculty member from a particular department in the college. An interview doesn’t guarantee that you will get admission. But most of the interviewed students get selected until and unless there is a valid rejection point.

What are the pros and cons of not having a hostel at FMS Delhi?

HB
Harnoor Bagga Posted On : January 10th, 2023
MBA Full-time in Finance, Faculty of Management Studies, University of Delhi (Graduated 2020)

The following are the benefits and drawbacks of not having a hostel at FMS, Delhi:

Pros:

  • When Freshers set out to arrange their own housing for the next two years, it was a completely new experience for them.
  • Helps to act as a bonding activity for the students of the new batch even before the start of the session.
  • Allows students to live according to their preferences for the next two years.
  • As a result, the two years are more relaxed than at other top B-Schools in the country because no unexpected classes can be scheduled after a certain time of day, unlike at other fully residential B-Schools.

Cons:

  • Students are put under additional pressure before the start of the session to arrange for their own lodging.
  • It raises the overall cost of the course for the next two years. Despite the fact that it is a two-year course for the rest of the world. Other than tuition, there are numerous other expenses, and the lack of a college hostel significantly increases them.
  • Less rigor than other fully residential B-SCHOOLS. Few IIMs even hold classes at 11 p.m. And it is viewed positively by corporations as rigor. However, this is not possible at FMS.

Thus, despite its pros and cons, it is a completely different experience that students should endure during their two wonderful years at FMS.

Which is better, the NIT Calicut or the NSIT\DTU?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 19th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

My friend also got to choose among NIT Calicut, NSIT (NSUT) and DTU last year. He decided to go for NSUT. NSUT has the best placement record out of the three, lagging behind only the top IITs (IIT Delhi, Bombay, Kanpur, Madras, Kharagpur) and BITS Pilani. NSUT is located in the national capital which adds to its list of advantages.

Here is a detailed 2022 placement record for B.Tech at NSUT-

Particulars

B.Tech 2022 Placements

Number of graduating students

896

Number of students placed

826

Median package

INR 16 LPA

However, do consider the branch that you will be getting at each. CSE is the most preferred branch among Engineering students and recruiters at present. 

Thus, based on your personal preferences and the branch offered at each, choose between NIT Calicut, NSUT and DTU. However, personally, I would recommend NSUT if you get a good branch in it.
