How is CSE in MANIT Bhopal as I wish to join MANIT this year?

SB
Surendra Bose Posted On : November 8th, 2023
Studied at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal

B.Tech CS offered by MANIT has its own cons. Here is some information about the same-

  1. The topics taught in first year are mostly non related to your branch. Pay attention to Programming and Communication Skills taught during this time. 
  2. A lot of time is wasted in the labs, learning outdated topics. 
  3. Around 20% of the syllabus is outdated, and students solely rely on coding for good job offers. Thus, most of them go into Soft Skills rather than R&D positions.
  4. Internet connectivity is crippled by throttling and capping in the hostels. 
  5. The files and sessionals are copy pasted.
  6. CS students get tier-2 and 3 companies through campus placements. They jump into tier-1 companies after a while. So, even though there is 100% placement, the ground reality is a bit different. 

The CSE offered at MANIT Bhopal is decent, and requires a lot of effort from your side. I would suggest you learn C programming language before joining the college.

Which is the best, PES University Ring Road campus or Electronic City campus? 

SK
Samir Khan Posted On : January 7th, 2026

PES University Ring Road campus vs Electronic City campus — this is a real choice that PES applicants face, and the answer matters for placement and experience.

PES University (Banashankari, Ring Road campus — main campus):

  • The original PES campus. Established brand, stronger alumni network in Bangalore's tech ecosystem.
  • Placement: Slightly stronger — more companies familiar with "PES University" main campus. Average CSE: ~8-11 LPA.
  • Location: South Bangalore (Banashankari/BSK) — good metro connectivity, residential area.
  • Programs: BTech (CSE, ECE, ME, EE), MBA, MCA.

PESIT South Campus (Electronic City — different institution name but PES group):

  • Technically: PESIT (PES Institute of Technology) South Campus. Different from PES University (different autonomous college).
  • Location: Electronic City — great for internships (Infosys, Wipro campuses are literally nearby).
  • Affiliated: VTU (Visvesvaraya Technological University) — degree says "VTU," not PES University.
  • Placement: Good for IT mass recruiting due to location advantage, but brand slightly below PES University main.

Verdict:

  • PES University (Ring Road) > PESIT South Campus for overall placement quality and brand.
  • For internships specifically during your degree: Electronic City location of PESIT is a practical advantage.
  • Make sure you're comparing the right institution — the degree-granting body (PES University vs VTU) is a meaningful difference for career applications.

Do IIIT Allahabad students apply for internships? When?

AA
Aarti Ahuja Posted On : July 4th, 2023
Lives in Allahabad

Several companies visit the IIIT Allahabad campus to recruit summer interns from among third-year students (during their 5th and 6th semesters). Most of these students are offered full-time jobs after the completion of their summer internships.

During the final year, most companies come to hire full-time employees. However, some companies do offer the students a 6-month internship that they can complete during their final (8th) semester. These internships may or may not come with full-time job offers. Usually, though, students are hired as full-time employees after completing these internships.

Those who go for 6-month internships during their final semester use the project that they worked on during their internship as their final major project. The candidates who end up staying on campus during their final semester work on a major project under some faculty.

What is the daily schedule of IISC Bangalore MS students?

SS
Shlok Sharma Posted On : February 8th, 2024
Studied at IISc Bangalore

The schedule is more or less the same for all postgraduate students at IISc.

Some are night owls, while others wake up early each morning. The mess opens between 7:30-9:30 am for breakfast. The classes commence at 8, and run till late the afternoon. So the early risers are the ones who eat their breakfast in the mess. 

The schedule of postgraduates is quite hectic over here. Most of them work in the labs till night, after their classes. The canteen of IISc Bangalore is called Prakruti. It is where you’ll find students and professors enjoying their evening tea. It is also the place where geniuses sit and think upon mathematical problems. 

Those who finish their work early opt for some outdoor activities in the evening. They play Hockey, TT, Lawn Tennis and Basketball in the Gymkhana. You can even find some professors over there. At night, some postgraduates go for night strolls post dinner, while others are busy working in the labs. Unlike the rest of the city that sleeps after 11pm, the IISc campus is awake at all hours. 

This question does not have a single answer, so I tried answering for every kind of postgraduate student on this campus.

There are many highly qualified professors in this discipline with well-equipped laboratories certified by ISO. The department has more than 90 Research and Development projects and more than 250 consultancy.

I am currently pursuing 1st year B.tech (CSE) in NIT Raipur. Can I give JEE Mains next year and take admission in another NIT or IIIT?

AM
Aditya Mishra Posted On : September 9th, 2023
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Raipur

Yes, you can surely attempt your JEE Mains/Advanced/BITS. Many students do the same. There are (and have been) at least 1 or 2 such students in every batch of NIT Raipur.

But I would advise you not to opt for just any other NIT. Choose an NIT which is at least 5-6 ranks above NIT Raipur. Otherwise, switching to another NIT will prove ineffective. The same goes for IIITs, choose only the old ones.

This is because NIT Raipur offers decent placements for CSE, at par with the NITs of the same stature. So wasting a year for NIT Jamshedpur or NIT Durgapur will be fruitless. If you go for JEE counseling, you’ll have to withdraw from your NIT Raipur seat first. To be on the safe side, go for the counseling only with a score high enough to get you CSE in a better ranking NIT. Otherwise, you might get NIT Raipur once again. This has happened with students in the past.

I hope this advice will help you make wise decisions regarding your college switch.
