Is IIT Guwahati becoming the next IIT Kanpur?

SN

Saugata Nayak

30 Mar 23

Both IIT Guwahati and IIT Kanpur are well-respected institutions, known for their high-quality education and research. Comparing the two is already justified and saying that one institution is becoming the next of the other is more so. Both institutions have their strengths and areas of expertise. Yet, if I was to choose one I would have always gone for IIT Kanpur. 

Some points that favor my preference are as follows:

  • The quality of coursework at IIT Kanpur is extremely challenging and will keep you on your toes always. It offers the best quality of education and you will learn much more than other IITs if you are regular to classes and take your academics seriously,
  • The usual schedule of a student at IIT Kanpur is not always jammed, unlike the general opinion. The timings of the clubs align with the classes and you can take out time for both if you are good at managing your time well.
  • Another challenging aspect of IIT Kanpur is its tough grading system, (10,8,6,4..) under which anything below 10 is 8. Thus you are under tremendous pressure to maintain your CGPA and is enough of a motivating factor.

Overall, even if Guwahati was to be compared to IIT Kanpur, it still has a long way to go until it becomes the next IIT Kanpur.

Should I take IIT Gandhinagar CSE or IIT Guwahati ECE?

AS

Akash Sinha

22 Jun 22

You should take IIT Gandhinagar CSE. It is one of the fastest-growing IIT, and offers good opportunities for placements and internships. According to the placement highlights of IIT Gandhinagar, each year around 80% of students get placed from CSE. The average CTC offered is around INR 18 LPA. While the highest CTC goes up to INR 40 LPA. Adani, Goldman Sachs, Infosys, Tata are some of the major recruiters for the CSE branch.

Which is the best option, Mathematics, and Computing at IIT Guwahati, CSE at IIIT Hyderabad, or CSE at BITS Pilani?

SD

Shubhangi Dutt

04 May 21

CSE at IIIT Hyderabad is so far the best possible program one can aspire for in India in the software industry. It’s better than IIT-B CSE and hence, far better than BITS Pilani or IITG CSE. 

IIIT Hyderabad

  • IIIT Hyderabad has initiated a dedicated software inclined course structure right from the first year. It is a course highly inclined towards academics. 
  • The institute completely focuses on preparing software experts called CODERS. 
  • It has highly active coding clubs, excellent coding culture, and the highest average package among the above-mentioned colleges.
  • However, it lacks a lot in the overall development due to the poor campus life. You have to leave your campus life behind if you are willing to be extremely academic.

BITS Pilani

  • It has a great course structure along with great campus life. You will be very happy with the coding culture over there. 
  • The institute enjoys years of alumni outreach. 
  • 0% attendance can sometimes put forward a very lenient attitude of your and might even affect the coming phases of your life.

IITG MnC

  • This branch offers a BTech degree and has a course with 45-50% Maths, 45% CS and some finance courses. 
  • The campus life in IITG is definitely amazing and the weather is pleasant. However, the coding culture is lacking as compared to the other two. 
  • The location and young alumni network is a major factor you should consider.

Considering all pointers mentioned above, it is clear that CSE at IIIT Hyderabad will be a best suited option for you.

Which one is better for MTech programmes in ECE, NIT Surathkal or IIT Guwahati?

PS

Pratik Sharma

20 Mar 23

IIT Guwahati is one of the top engineering institutions in India and has a well-established ECE program with a strong focus on research. The institution has state-of-the-art facilities and offers many opportunities for collaboration and networking with other leading institutions in India and around the world.

Both NIT Surathkal and IIT Guwahati are excellent choices for pursuing an MTech program in ECE. You should consider your personal preferences, career goals, and research interests when making a decision between the two. It's also recommended to visit the campuses, speak to current students and alumni, and explore the curriculum and research opportunities to make an informed decision. 

However, when considering the choice between IIT Guwahati and NIT Surathkal for MTech programs in ECE, it is important to note that while both institutions offer excellent programs, the brand and reputation of IITs are highly valued by companies. Therefore, the tag of IIT may carry more weight in the eyes of potential employers.

How is the placement of IIT Roorkee VLSI compared to IITG VLSI?

RS

Radhika Srivastava

12 Apr 23

It’s difficult to compare IIT Roorkee and IIT Guwahati as both are institutes with excellent infrastructure and educational opportunities. As far as VLSI placements are concerned, both have almost the same companies visiting for placements with similar packages. The only advantage Guwahati has over Roorkee is airport connectivity. However, Roorkee too has a winning element which is its larger alumni base in comparison to Guwahati.

Most semiconductor companies like Qualcomm, INTEL, Samsung, TI, NVDIA, NXP, and ON Semiconductor visit both institutes with similar job profiles. However, Micron Semiconductor visits only IIT Madras, IISc, and IIT Bombay.

Some more top companies that visit IIT Roorkee and IIT Guwahati for VLSI placements are

  • Cisco systems
  • AMD
  • Cypress
  • Redpine Signal
  • Microchip technology
  • Broadcom 

So we can say that the VLSI placement scenario at both institutes is equally good.

Which is a better option: IIT Guwahati CSE, IIT BHU CSE, IIT Bombay mech or IIT Kharagpur electrical and electronics communication?

AB

Aditi Banerjee

27 Mar 23

I assume that you haven’t decided on a specific branch and hence you have multiple options open from different institutes and branches. Before I give you my suggestion it’s important to know that most non-CS students at IIT Bombay and IIT Kharagpur try to get a job in CS only. For this, they learn programming and sit for non-core placements. 

For the same reason, I am recommending you join either BHU or Guwahati (CSE).

  • BHU is known for its elaborate and old alumni base leading to better placements whereas Guwahati speaks highly of its infrastructure.
  • BHU has much better connectivity owing to its city locations whereas Guwahati is situated outside the city.
  • Guwahati has a larger faculty pool than BHU

In the end unless you are a North-Eastern, BHU is the best option for you. Either way you are good to go and thus can make a decision that suits your location.

What should I take among IIT Delhi textile, IIT Kharagpur biotechnology, and IIT Guwahati engineering physics?

AB

Akriti Banerjee

10 Apr 23

The choice of college and branch totally depends on your inclination and career prospects. Yet, a few pointers you might consider 

For MBA/ non-core jobs/Startups: IIT Delhi Textile is the best choice if you are looking for any 3 of these options. Its excellent location provides enough exposure to give you access to unimaginable opportunities. Many events hosted by industry experts, CEOs of big companies, and successful entrepreneurs will give a better insight into the startup culture. Moreover, students preparing for competing exams can easily access coaching centers nearby.

Research in Biotechnology: If you are interested in research in general or Biotechnology specifically, then the Biotechnology at KGP is an excellent choice. It is one of the most demanding fields in terms of research and general growth. With a good CGPA, you can find a research internship or you can apply for MS or Ph.D. Even job opportunities are plentiful. 

Campus: IIT Delhi is better because of its small size and location

Lastly, Engineering Physics from IIT Guwahati should be considered only if you are genuinely passionate about Physics and want to pursue a research career in the same. The curriculum comprises high-tech mathematical concepts and is a good option to pursue a career in economics and computer science.

Which is better 5 year CSE at IIT Kharagpur or 4 year CSE at IIT Guwahati, IIT Roorkee or IIT BHU?

HK

Harish Kumar

28 Mar 23

It is difficult to say which program is better as it is more of a matter of personal interest than program worth. However, it is a well-established fact that IITs are highly respected and provide an excellent education in the field of computer science and engineering (CSE). Both the CSE programs; the 5-year program at IIT Kharagpur and the 4-year program at IIT Guwahati, IIT Roorkee, and IIT BHU are equally good academically.

If it’s placements you are concerned about, IIT BHU will satisfy all your expectations as it has the best companies, amazing coding culture, and an elaborate alumni network. The highest package for 2022-2023 placements was reported to be INR 1.2 CPA with top companies like Microsoft Google, and Facebook visiting the campus to hire for their Seattle/California office. Most reputed companies in India pay a visit to IIT BHU and sometimes offer more than one offer to each student. Some students even have PPOs way before the placement season begins. If placements are your concern you can rest assured as the CSE branch at IIT BHU offers the best packages in top companies. Some top recruiters include

  • Rakuten
  • Uber
  • Zeta
  • Microsoft SWE
  • Oracle

Additionally, it would be important to consider your personal interests, career goals, and other factors when making this decision.

Which institute is better for CSE, BITS Pilani, IIT Guwahati or IIT BHU?

NT

Nived Tripathi

20 Mar 23

When it comes to Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) programs, IIIT Hyderabad is undoubtedly one of the best options available. The study environment and coding culture at IIIT Hyderabad are unmatched, making it a great choice for students interested in CSE.

However, if you are looking for a more well-rounded college experience that includes a relaxed and enjoyable campus life, an older IIT may be a better choice for you. While IIIT Hyderabad excels in academics, it may not provide the same level of student life experience as an IIT.

When deciding between colleges, it is important to consider all aspects of the institution, not just academics. For example, BITS Pilani is an excellent college in all aspects, but if you have the option of getting into an older IIT such as IIT Guwahati, it may be a better choice for you.

Similarly, when choosing between BHU and IIT Guwahati, it is advisable to choose IIT Guwahati. While BHU has recently been given the IIT tag, IIT Guwahati is now being compared to older IITs and is even beating some of them in various rankings.

Finally, if you do not get admission into CSE with a rank of 803, Mathematics and Computing (MnC) is always an option. In fact, MnC is a safer option with better placement opportunities at IIT Guwahati. So, you can always consider MnC if you don't get CSE.
