SM

Studied B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, Tezpur University (2020)

NIT Meghalaya’s first batch had great placements not just in CSE but also in other branches. It has an awesome faculty and a great campus. Also, the tag of a NITian has a colossal worth.

If you are looking for great job opportunities, NIT Meghalaya and Nagaland will a good choice. But you should not expect dream placements. Tezpur University may offer a few IT offers but it is nowhere near NITs. You will get greater and better exposure in NITs rather than TU. For CSE, NITs have consistently had an edge over other colleges. 

Presently, going to the NITs recorded here. The best among them for CS is NIT Meghalaya. The MHRD rankings have as of now shown this reality. NIT Meghalaya is 15th among all NITs, and tops in every one of the 11 new NITs. It has even outflanked NIT Silchar.

IIT Delhi or IIT Kanpur for electrical engineering? Also, I really dont know what my interest is in, how do I know if electrical engineering is right for me?

SN
Saugata Nayak Posted On : April 20th, 2023
Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (2020)

As far as the choice of the Institute is concerned, I will recommend you go for IIT Delhi instead of IIT Kanpur. Here are a few reasons that support my recommendation

  • Ranking-wise, IIT Delhi Electrical is better than IIT Kanpur.
  • Location-wise too, IIT Delhi fairs are better than Kanpur considering its central location. Moreover, it has the facilities of coaching institutes nearby, making it possible for students to prepare for higher exams

Coming to the choice of the branch, it might be difficult for some to identify their area of interest as of now. However, I can give you a slight info into both of the most preferred branches viz CS and Electrical.

CS: It comprises abstract math and algorithms. It involves step-wise problem-solving concepts wherein you get an answer after following a clear pattern. If this is your forte, then CS is for you.

Electrical: If you like playing with circuits and have an interest in dealing with graphs and their analysis, EE is for you.

As a side interest, you can always opt for open electives after the 2nd year that allows you to pursue more than one branch at a time. Truth be told, the packages offered to CS students are bigger than those offered to EE students.

Are new IITs (Tirupati and pallakad) good for CSE?

NR
Nishikanth Reddy Posted On : January 11th, 2024
IIT Tirupati

I belong to the first CSE batch of IIT Tirupati. We had it rough because of no senior guidance, and a sense of helplessness. But having said that, CSE is all about self effort and dedication. Whatever college you choose, you’ll feel a bit clueless till about your 3rd semester. But to get through, you need dedication and patience.

Now coming to your answer, IIT Tirupati is a good choice for CSE. You should consider this college if you couldn’t get into CSE at the old IITs. The reasons for this are-

  1. Some of the excellent faculty of IIT Madras still take a few core courses at IIT Tirupati. 
  2. The CSE lab is well-equipped and Air Conditioned.
  3. The college library remains open till 9 pm.
  4. The hostels are quite nice.

Regardless of the IIT, it is your own efforts and the guidance of your mentors that will lead you towards success in any field.

Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

One of my friends at NIT Kurukshetra shared his experience while pursuing a BTech in ECE. The initial month was frustrating owing to the miserable mess of food and the language barrier he faced being a South Indian. In the second year, however, he realized that there was more to college life than just food. He discovered some very interesting subjects that fuelled his interest in the field. The third year again brought in some outdated courses however, he held up by exploring the areas of VLSI and Embedded systems.

Additionally, around 5 fests are held in one academic year comprising 3 cultural and 2 technical. These fests are organized by various clubs and societies of the college. You will experience real college life only after participating in and organizing these clubs. So, set your priorities right and make the most of the college life at NIT Kurukshetra.
