Is IT at IIIT Allahabad better than CS at all NITs?

AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : October 16th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

IT at IIITA has several advantages over CS at the NITs. I will be explaining these advantages in detail for you-

At IITs/NITs, the first 2 semesters have a common curriculum for all branches. For the rest of the semesters, the core courses are accompanied with some useless courses. 

Take NITK for example. From the 3rd sem, B.Tech CS students at NITK are taught additional courses like Chemistry, Engineering Science, Manufacturing Process, Humanities, etc.

IT at IIITA has the same core courses in its curriculum, without any additional ones. You’ll get many electives in 6th and 7th sem, and more projects to work on. 

Some courses from the curriculum are- Electronic Devices & Circuits, Circuit Analysis and Synthesis, Data Structures, Digital Electronics, Computer Organization and Architecture, Theory of Computation, Object Oriented Methodologies, etc. B.Tech IT at IIITA has more hardware-related topics than B.Tech CS at IITs/NITs. 

Due to these reasons, IT at IIIT Allahabad is much better than CS at all NITs.

JIS College of Engineering offers BCA at the UG level. Admission to BCA is solely based on merit so there is no direct admission policy here. Candidates need to participate in the counseling process conducted by MAKAUT. The merit list is based on marks scored by candidates in Class 12.

Eligibility Criteria: To be eligible for this program, candidates must have completed Class 12 with English and Computer Application/ Mathematics/ Informatics Practices/ Computer Science/ Statistics from a recognized board.

Hostel Fees: JIS College Of Engineering charges hostel fees of 5500/- per month which are payable Quarterly. Additionally, the one-time admission fee is INR. 5000. So, the total amount payable at the time of joining the hostel is INR 38000. The hostel fees for one semester are therefore 5500 X 6 months = INR. 33000 + Admission fee INR 5000. 

Hope my answer clears your doubts.

Which is better for CSE, NIT Jalandhar or NIT Delhi?

YM
Yash Mehra Posted On : April 15th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Delhi

Definitely, you should go for NIT Jalandhar. There are various reasons and differences due to which NIT Jalandhar is the better option for CSE. 

  • The first and foremost reason is the establishment. NIT Jalandhar is a well-established institute whereas NITD is still juggling to fit in the stream. 
  • With the better ranking and almost all the courses available NIT Jalandhar has a huge campus which will give you a better campus life. Whereas, NITD is a small campus with a few numbers of available courses. 
  • When it comes to CSE, there has been a decent placement from the past few years. Few top companies that one could count on recruitment are Amazon, Sapient, IBM, Infosys, etc. 
  • Although NITD, being in the central position gives you good internship choices to CSE students in the Delhi NCR region. So, if you want to opt for a particular CSE branch then you can take a chance but for any other stream, NITD is a big no. 
  • NITJ has a good CSE alumni base who are working in top companies. Therefore, placement is never a big problem here. 

The table below shows a brief insight on both NITs:

What exactly happens in the institutional quota in KJ Somaiya College of Engineering and DJ Sanghvi?

SG
Sudipta Ghose Posted On : September 4th, 2021
B.Tech from K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering (2020)

A few years back, one of my friends took admission at KJ Somaiya via the ILS quota in the department of Mechanical Engineering. There were around 12 seats available. The fee was the same for everyone, irrespective of the quota. 

He filled up a form on the college’s website and a merit list came out based on their CET marks. My friend’s merit number was in the 70s. If you want admission, you will have to be physically present on the day of counseling along with the fee. They were called for admission based on their merit number. The number of seats available was displayed on an LCD for all the branches. As people took admission, it got updated. When your number is called, you will have to go to the table and select your branch. 

This was the process followed a few years back. However, I do not think that there has been any change in the process.

How is SIOM (Symbiosis Institute of Operations Management) Nashik? Is it worth it to do an MBA from there?

DM
Damini Mehra Posted On : July 5th, 2021
Studied at Symbiosis Institute of Operations Management, Nashik (2019)

As far as SIOM is concerned, it is one of the best institutions in the country for operation management. It is known to provide 100% placement but it is definitely lacking in basic amenities like infrastructure, decent faculty, good academic management as well as flexibility, and campus facilities. But, SIOM also has some really unique infrastructure like the SAP lab and supply chain software which you might not find in top universities either.

However, if you are okay with adjusting to these parameters and your only focus is on studying and you would like to build your career as an operation manager, SIOM is a really good option as you will come under the Symbiosis banner.

Moreover, you should go for SIOM only if you do not get a call from other universities like IIMs, NITIE, SP Jain, XLRI, NMIMS or JBIMS. You will notice that the packages are a little on the lesser side as compared to the mentioned colleges but it is quite acceptable if you are fresher. SIOM will give your career the boost it needs.

How is LLM in Azim Premji University?

PG
Pravin Gaurav Posted On : February 1st, 2021
LL.M from Azim Premji University, Bengaluru (2017)

Azim Premji university is a private, non-profit institution with affiliation from UGC. It offers BA, MA, L.L.M, B.Sc. courses. A relative of mine who has been studying there has recommended the Institute based on its eligibility criteria, good placements and campus life. 

Admission and eligibility criteria -

To be eligible for admission, students are expected to have passed LLB courses of 3 year or 5 year duration followed by a written test and interview.

  • The L.L.M course at Azim Premji university is lucrative for its course structure, which sets it apart from others. 
  • A very significant part of the curriculum is the fieldwork component, which is a unique feature of APU. The fieldwork element plays a crucial role in providing a different perspective of the law, which students would have studied in theory.
  • The typical structure of exams is also absent from the LLM course at APU. Instead, response papers are given to students with a deadline of 24 hours for submission of the paper.

This new approach to the exam system at APU, helps the student to be more attentive towards the course curriculum, ensuring long term retention of the knowledge gained.The faculty of APU has been vouched for as one of the best, by many former students of the university, even considered better than other law schools of repute.

Overall, APU is a very good university to do your LLM from. Everything at the university starting from campus life to placements will surely meet up to your expectations. This distinctive aspect of APU, makes it a different and a much better alternative to other universities following the traditional approach and also the National Law University(NLU).

Do engineering design students at IIT madras get a good package?

SG
Swati Gupta Posted On : March 29th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IITM)

 Yes, engineering design students at IIT Madras can get good packages. The placement package offered to the students depends on various factors such as their academic performance, skills, and the demand for their skills in the job market.

However, IIT Madras is known to be one of the top engineering colleges in India, and the students from this institute are highly sought after by various companies in India and abroad. The average placement package for engineering design students at IIT Madras ranges from 10-15 lakhs per annum, with some students receiving even higher packages depending on their skills and performance.

It's important to note that while a good placement package is certainly a valuable outcome, it should not be the only factor that students consider when choosing their career path. It's also important to consider factors such as personal interests, job satisfaction, and opportunities for growth and development in the field.
