When choosing between a computer science or statistics perspective for ML, it's important to consider your goals. Statisticians have high standards for theoretical guarantees and usually publish in journals. It may take 5-6 years after initial conception for a method to be accepted and used. On the other hand, computer science and ML move quickly with conferences as the primary venues. Methods and code quickly spread, and people start using them.
In general, computer science is considered a better choice for ML than statistics departments. If you're considering the ISI Machine Intelligence Unit, note that it's mostly made up of statisticians who research fuzzy logic and publish in stats or application-specific journals. Their papers don't usually appear in flagship ML venues like NIPS, ICML, or KDD.
When deciding between a CS or statistics Ph.D., also consider your employment options after graduation. The majority of people in top Indian labs like MSR, Google, and XRCI are CS PhDs, if not 100%. Statistics PhDs, on the other hand, typically work in actuarial firms or investment banks, which have different work objectives.
It's a much sought-after degree at Vignan University. My brother pursued the same and did his MS later. There are two ways to get an internship in the IISC Bangalore.
My brother chose the second option to get his preferred spot.
ISI Kolkata is the best option for MSc in Maths, followed by IISc. IIT KGP is reputed in the technology domain, but for core science subjects, it’s not a good option. If you are interested to pursue pure Mathematics, choosing ISI is the best option among these. It specializes in the field. You will get better career opportunities and exposure in the field.
The benefits of studying an M.Tech at IISc Bangalore are:
Having to know some people from both these institutes, I can say that both have the sand management course but still, there's a lot of difference between the mindset of the two.
Categories | PGDIE at NITIE Mumbai | MMS at IISc Bangalore |
Course Fee | 14.63 lakh | 3.18 lakh |
Highest CTC | 28 LPA | 26 LPA |
Average CTC | 15 LPA | 12-18 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | Wipro, ZS Associates, IBM, HP, etc. | Infosys, Cognizant, Dell, TCS, etc. |
So ultimately it is your decision to choose between these two colleges. Assess every criteria before finalizing one. As this will shape your career further.
It depends upon you whether you want to pursue your dream of getting a government job or pursue higher studies further. Either you pursue M.Tech from IITs or go for PSU jobs. It totally depends upon you what your interest level and what do you want to achieve as both are very different career options.
It finally depends on you and how you want your career to be shaped further. Because both have entirely different outcomes. Both can be equally good for your career if you are dedicated enough.
IISc Bangalore is more than 110 years old and it is the first choice of most students for Science, Engineering, and Technology-related courses. Seven IISER were established recently with the goal of providing quality education in pure science. IISERs were established with the expectations that they would reach global standards in the field of basic sciences and offer intensive research like IISc.
IISERs offer courses such as BS-MS, integrated Ph.D., and Ph.D. to students. Although IISERs were established recently, they have good faculties and research facilities. Getting admission at IISc is more challenging compared to IISERs.
In my opinion, IISc Bangalore is a way better option than IIT Bombay mainly because it offers core engineering in computer science e.g. Linux Kernel Programming. It is true computer engineering. It helps you understand the science of Computer Engineering and develop a strong grasp of it.
Any science be it Computer Science or any other is solely based on concepts and implementation of these concepts is quite difficult. An extensive knowledge of Computer Science doesn’t necessarily ensure great Computer engineering skills. But it’s true vice versa. So by going for IISC, one is surely choosing the path of excellence through the very foundation of Computer Science.
IIT Bombay is a brand that is known nationwide whereas IISc is known globally mainly because of its focus on core and complex concepts in Computer Science. Moreover the quality and quality of papers submitted by IISc is much more than IIT Bombay and this already reflects how successful it is going to become in the future.
If you're trying to choose between IISc and IIT Bombay for an MTech CSE, here are some features of each that you may find helpful:

IIT Bombay:
Ultimately, both IISc and IIT Bombay are top institutes in the country, and the decision on which one is better for you depends on your personal preferences and requirements.
When it comes to pursuing MTech in civil engineering, choosing between IISc Bangalore and IIT Madras can be a challenging decision. Both institutions are renowned for their academic excellence and have a long-standing reputation for producing some of the finest graduates in the field. To help you make an informed decision, let's explore the differences between the two institutions based on your future plans.
If you're planning to pursue a career in academia, then IISc Bangalore might be the better option for you.
Here are some reasons why:
On the other hand, if you're planning to pursue a career in the corporate world, then IIT Madras might be the better option for you. Here are some reasons why:
Whether IISc Bangalore or IIT Madras is better for M.Tech in civil engineering depends on your plans.
