Accepted Answer

If you are an academically interested person, both NIT Kurukshetra and PEC Chandigarh will cherish you, and you will get very good opportunities in both colleges. Here are some key points to consider when deciding between the two: Commonalities between the two colleges: Both are constituent colleges of Anna University, so they share certain components, including course offerings, examination schedules, and university calendar events. Faculty transfers between the colleges occasionally, and collaboration in research is not uncommon. Both colleges have bright and interesting peers and professors to inspire you. Where PEC Chandigarh is better: Scale: PEC is a bigger college with more people. Exposure: PEC is in the center of the city and is a well-known institution in the area. Faculty: PEC's faculty in the CS department has more doctorates, and the department has been around for a few decades. Seniors: PEC has been teaching computer science for longer than NIT Kurukshetra, so there are more alumni out there creating and contributing to organizations. Sponsors: Due to the above reasons, PEC has very good sponsorship for college events. Campus: PEC's campus is beautiful, with easy access to AU events like counseling, placements, and festivals that happen in AU grounds. Where NIT Kurukshetra is better: Seniors Link: The link with seniors is much stronger at NIT Kurukshetra, with a strong emotional dimension to the senior-junior relationship. Entrepreneurship: NIT Kurukshetra has an incubation center on campus, which is great for students interested in starting up early on.

The campus also has a rich history, serving as a hanger for wartime planes, and the aeronautics department hosts a couple of legacy planes for people to admire. Ultimately, the decision between NIT Kurukshetra and PEC Chandigarh depends on your personal preferences and priorities. Consider factors such as location, campus facilities, faculty, and alumni network when making your choice.

Question 7

Is studying ECE at NIT Trichy better than studying ECE at CEG?

Accepted Answer

I have a few friends from both NIT Trichy and CEG and here is what I gathered from my conversations with them. In terms of ranking, NIT Trichy is placed higher than CEG. This is because NIT admits students based on JEE Mains ranking and CEG admits students based on board marks. In terms of placements, NIT Trichy would be way ahead of CEG. The college enjoys a better reputation and big firms come for placements. For ECE, then recruiting companies visiting the on-campus placements at NIT Trichy are Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, SanDisk, Nvidia, etc. The average CTC offered is 6 LPA. You can also go for higher education if you have a good GPA and great projects. The faculty team is overall good. A few of them are extremely knowledgeable and conduct high-quality research. In terms of facilities, NIT Trichy has an edge over CEG. Since CEG is in Chennai, there are other sources of enjoyment but NIT Trichy is 20 km away from Trichy. Overall, NIT Trichy will be a better choice than CEG.

Question 8

Which college is best among PEC University of Technology, Chandigarh; Thapar University, Patiala; and College of Engineering Guindy, Anna University?

Accepted Answer

Among the above institutes, PEC Chandigarh is the best choice, considering the factors of availability in streams, fee structure, etc. If you have a specific branch in mind to pursue, then you can definitely choose PEC Chandigarh. But if you are considering a non-IIIT or non-NIT tag then you can opt for DTU. The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the institutes. Particulars PEC Chandigarh Thapar University, Patiala College of Engineering Guindy, Anna University NIRF &rsquo;20 Rankings 68 29 14 Total Fees (B.Tech) Rs. 4.6 Lakhs Rs. 13.23 Lakhs Rs. 2 Lakhs Average Salary Offered Rs. 6-7 LPA Rs. 7 LPA Rs. 6 LPA Admission Tests JEE Main, DASA UG JEE Main TNEA Key Highlights: PEC Chandigarh is a government institute and so has a much lesser fee as compared to Thapar University, which is an autonomous university having a much higher fee structure. There are some subjects in PEC Chandigarh which are not available in other institutes like Thapar University or CEG, for example, Aeronautical Engineering. Therefore, PEC Chandigarh is a better choice considering the factors stated above. Other than these, all the three institutes are incomparable to each other as they offer similar quality placement.

Question 9

Which should I choose, College of Engineering (Guindy) or NIT Puducherry?

Accepted Answer

NIT Puducherry is very new compared to College of Engineering Guindy (CEG). Let me share some points which might help you decide. CEG is very old and experienced as an educational institution. It has well-established CSE and ECE departments with exceptional and updated lab facilities. The syllabus is more or less similar in both colleges. CEG has a more competitive student crowd which eventually helps students to boost their morale. Due to its years of educational experience, CEG definitely has a better placement record than NIT Puducherry. Categories CEG NIT Puducherry Course Fee 2 lakh 5.49 lakh Placement Percentage 80% 65% Highest CTC 22 LPA 15 LPA Average CTC 7.5 LPA 4 LPA Recruiting Companies TCS, HP, Cognizant, Dell, etc. L&T, EY, JP Morgan, TCS, etc. It is recommended that you go for CEG if you have to choose between these two. But if your choice only is NIT Puducherry then you can opt for it. It is a good college but as it started functioning recently, it is better to go for an experienced one.

Question 10

Which should I go with: College of Engineering, Guindy or NIT Puducherry?

Accepted Answer

One of my friends studied at College of Engineering Guindy (CEG). According to him, it is a good institution, CSE being the highlighted department. Let me share the details I got to know from him. CSE students are very much dedicated to their projects and assignments. The faculty members are also very cooperative and highly experienced in their respective fields. CSE always had and maintained a good placement record. The campus itself is very huge, providing an appropriate place for students to study. There are active clubs and international techno-management Fest Kurukshetra and cultural fest Techofes. They also have a club for quizzes, Industrial quality maintenance, social activities, photography, college magazine, all of which are active throughout the year. Categories College of Engineering Guindy Course Fee 2 lakhs Placement Percentage 80% Highest CTC 22 LPA Average CTC 7.5 LPA Lowest CTC 3 LPA Recruiting Companies Amazon, Wipro, TCS, Dell, etc. Therefore, after considering everything I think it will be better to join CEG, as it will develop you to achieve success in anything.

Question 11

Which is better, College of Engineering, Guindy or Madras Institute of Technology?

Accepted Answer

Well, It totally depends on the course that you take in the respective Universities. As far as MBA goes, Operations, Marketing, Systems, or any other stream of management that is related to Engineering are better off in College of Engineering, Guindy and HR, Marketing, and streams related to arts are at their best in the University of Madras. Talking in terms of placements both colleges are equal. In terms of tuition fees, the College of Engineering, Guindy is quite cheap. Whereas you will get better exposure at Madras Institute of Technology. Here is a brief outline of both colleges. Parameters College of Engineering, Guindy Madras Institute of Technology, Chrompet Tuition fees INR 50,000 INR 60,000 Placement Average 80% 71.4% Average CTC INR 6 LPA INR 7 LPA So, choose according to your convenience.

Question 12

Which is better: the Anna University College of Engineering or NIT Trichy?

Accepted Answer

I don&rsquo;t think comparing both the colleges i.eAnna University College of Engineering and NIT Trichy is justified. This is because both are equally good in almost all the parameters. Both ranked among the top Engineering colleges in India. I have made a slight comparison based on the following factors to make a better choice: Placements: NIT Trichy has an upper hand in placements. More core companies visit NITs in general than CEGs. This is because NIT is an established brand name. Higher studies:CEG is slightly privileged in this aspect as it considers the TN state boards marks whereas NIT considers JEE performance. So the former is easier than the latter. College life:College life at CEG is better because of its location. You can eat outside the hostel as many restaurants are available near the college. But NIT Trichy is far from the city so options for exploring are fewer. Lastly, keep in mind that if you are choosing NIT then go for Trichy or Kurukshetra only. Don&rsquo;t go for any other NIT leaving CEG.
