NIT Warangal: 50 answered questions

Ques

Which has better hostel conditions, NIT Trichy, or NIT Warangal?

● Top Answer By Sejal Gupta on 07 Mar 23

Ans
NIT Warangal provides very good hostel facilities to first-year students among most of the Engineering students in India. The approximate cost for a hostel ranges from 1.8-2k. Second-year students are required to stay in the Old Blocks which is not as good as the hostels of First-year students. For Third Year students, an average hostel costing 1k is provided with pretty decent facilities. At a glance, we can say that the hostel facilities of NIT Warangal are better than that of NIT Trichy.

Ques

What is the placement scenario in nit warangal, nit trichy and nit surathkal for mtech in electrical branch?

● Top Answer By Anik Dhar on 04 Sept 21

Ans
My brother did his M.Tech from NITC. Here is his insight into the general placement scenario for MTech at NITs.  Over the years it has been seen that the placements for M.Tech students are comparatively less as most of the companies demand B.Tech graduates as the freshers or even experienced candidates. However, in some cases, M.Tech students are considered, like in research and development-oriented jobs. However, most industries prefer B.Tech over M.Tech.  After pursuing M.Tech your area gets narrower due to which the situation becomes very tricky for both the employers and the candidates applying for. As far as all the colleges are concerned the placement statistics are not so good for M.Tech students. In the recent placement drives, the average CTC offered at NIT Warangal, NIT Trichy and NIT Surathkal were respectively 21 LPA, 6 LPA, and 11 LPA.

Ques

Which is better, thermal in NIT Trichy or design in NIT Warangal as per placements and package?

● Top Answer By Shivani Singh on 30 Aug 21

Ans
Having known some people who graduated from NIT Trichy and NIT Warangal I can say that there is no demand for either of these two subjects in the industry. Both the colleges are of similar reputation in the industry, hence choose the one that suits your location. This will ease your transportation.  The students of these institutes opt for CSE, learn programming languages from scratch, willing to be computer engineers in the future. They are offered salary packages ranging from 12-24 LPA, depending on their skills. Sometimes it rises up to 50 LPA. These companies not only check academic credentials but also their TopCoder and GitHub profiles. Some even opt to be managers, their jobs demand and value academic credentials. They receive salary packages ranging from 15-18 LPA. The placements at both colleges are good. Make a calculative decision considering the field you are interested in.

Ques

What made NIT Trichy, NIT Warangal and NIT Surathkal stand out best among all NITs?

● Top Answer By Tamalika Dutta on 12 Apr 21

Ans
Honesty, discipline, and the values of the South Indian people and the states make them stand out. This might not be making sense to you, but will definitely try to elucidate the same here. Also, opinions vary among people. One of my friends studied at NIT Trichy and he has lived in Hyderabad as well.  According to him, 4 qualities that make any institution the best are - Hard work, discipline, humbleness, and the eagerness to learn. The people in the southern state's priorities have these factors more than the people in the northern states. The second point to note here is that, unless and until you get to the nerves, the people in the southern states are very calm and polite to you.  Most of the people in the northern states, on the other hand, are of a rowdy attitude. Verbal abuses are common here. The students in these institutions are dedicated to learning and so are the teachers towards teaching. Moreover, the rules and regulations are followed strictly in these institutions.

Ques

While applying to the US for an MS, are NITs (Surathkal, Trichy, Warangal) considered the same level as the new IITs?

● Top Answer By Aaliyah Parveen on 12 Apr 21

Ans
No, NITs are definitely not considered of the same level as the new IITs while applying to the US for an MS. But, the fact that IITs are the best brand in India and the second-best brand are NITs, is well known to the admission committees of most of the institutions. Every year, students from the top three NITs make it to top universities in the US.  With the increase in this trend, NIT Trichy, Surathkal and Warangal are known to many institutions in the US.  Besides, the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the top NITs and many international institutions also are of great help to the students. Top universities like Stanford, MIT, CMU, etc., commonly witness students from NIT Surathkal.  Therefore, making it to top-notch universities is certainly possible; all that you need is good grades, a good GRE score, good SOP, and a few publications.

Ques

What is better, NIT Warangal or NIT Calicut?

● Top Answer By Chitra Roy on 22 Mar 21

Ans
Among the above two institutes, NIT Warangal is the definite choice, considering the factors of alumni record, placements, etc. The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the institutes. Particulars NIT Warangal NIT Calicut Total Fees (B.Tech) Rs. 5 Lakhs Rs. 5.42 Lakhs Median Salary Offered Rs. 9 LPA Rs. 8 LPA Some of the key highlights of NIT Warangal are discussed below.  NIT Warangal is in close proximity to Hyderabad city, which gives a location advantage to commute. Also, you will have better placement opportunities since Hyderabad is an IT hub.  NIT Warangal has a strong alumni record, which in turn increases placement opportunities for students in various industrial sectors. In between NIT Warangal, NIT Trichy, and NIT Surathkal, you should choose the institute in which you are getting your favorite branch. But, all of these NITs are far ahead of NIT Calicut. So, choose wisely.

Ques

What is the reason behind the low rank of NIT Warangal and NIT Calicut in MHRD, NIRF ranking?

● Top Answer By Tiyasa Pal on 20 Aug 21

Ans
As some of my friends are from NIT Calicut, I might be able to share some information about the college I gathered from them. The major reason for the diminishing NIRF ranking is its lack of proper administrative procedures during MHRD document verification. The details about the alumni network are really poor. Another reason is the college is trying to maintain its age-old legacy by keeping the infrastructure as it is. They are rarely repaired, There is no construction of new buildings. Even the facilities are old and are not replaced by modern technologies. If you think that the drop in the rankings is because of the quality of education, faculty, or placements, let me assure you that it is not. Because NIT Calicut is still considered among the top 4 NITs.

Ques

Which is better, NIT Warangal or IIT Dhanbad?

● Top Answer By Suriya Dasgupta on 08 Jun 21

Ans
It depends on whether you want the IIT tag or not. Even if we don’t consider the IIT tag, IIT Dhanbad will definitely be a better option. I say this based on the reviews I git from my friends at both the institutes. Here are some of the reasons why you should choose Dhanbad. Placements: Here are the recent placement statistics of IIT Dhanbad. Highest CTC 48.36 LPA Average CTC 14 LPA Major recruiters Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, Sprinkler, etc. The figures given above do not contain recruitment through GATE, UPSE, IES, etc. So, the portrayed figures are lower than actual numbers. Other than the impressive placements, IIT Dhanbad also offers a great academic environment. You will have helpful seniors and professors. It also puts a lot of emphasis on sports and extracurricular activities. Many events are organized on campus around the academic year such as Basant, Lohri, Holi, etc. Overall, you will have a great experience at IIT Dhanbad.

Ques

My GATE(CSE) score is 686 (AIR-820). Can I get NIT Warangal or NIT Trichy?

● Top Answer By Nalini Verma on 02 Sept 21

Ans
Before beginning with the answer, you should know that the score you have got is quite good and there are chances of you to get a seat in NIT Trichy.  Here’s the process of NIT Trichy: Firstly, it is close to impossible to get a seat in CSE during the primary counseling of CCMT.  Moreover, the spot round can provide you with a seat for CSE Information Security in NIT Warangal.  Furthermore, after enrolling you have an option for internal sliding rounds in which there is a probability of getting a seat in the CSE branch.  If not that, then the college itself will release the number of seats on the website for the students who are still interested in enrolling. Category NIT Trichy CSE (GATE Rank) NIT Warangal CSE (GATE Rank) General 807 - 643 838 - 655 EWS 772 - 616 774 - 639 SC 678 - 402 663 - 453 ST 558 - 271 504 - 313 OBC 756 - 643 744 - 600 On the other hand, there is a high possibility that NIT Warangal also has the same procedure but my brother wasn’t sure about it.

Ques

How does the computer science branch of BITS, Goa compare to NIT Warangal?

● Top Answer By Rajdeep Singh on 21 Mar 23

Ans
 If you are considering pursuing a computer science engineering program, it would be suggested that you consider both BITS Pilani Goa Campus and NIT Warangal. Both colleges offer excellent CSE departments and have a great coding culture at BPGC. NIT Warangal would be the better choice for you. This is because BITS has only three campuses in India (four if you count Dubai), while there is an NIT in every state, and admission to these colleges is governed by state quotas. As a result, BPGC has the potential to overtake every NIT, except for the top 5-7 colleges. Nonetheless, both BITS Goa and NIT Warangal are currently excellent options for pursuing CSE. If cost is an important factor for you, NIT Warangal might be the more suitable option, as it provides relatively low-cost education. However, the decision of which college to choose ultimately depends on you, and you should take all relevant factors into account before making a decision.
