Is IIIT Lucknow better than NIT Patna?

Sambhav Singh

19 Mar 21

Between IIIT Lucknow and NIT Patna, the former is a better choice, especially for IT. I have a few friends in the IT department of IIIT Lucknow, so I can vouch for it. Here are a few highlights of IIIT Lucknow.

Placements:

IIIT Lucknow has already released its placement report for the year 2020, and It is seen that the highest CTC stood at INR 43 LPA whereas the average CTC stood at INR 18.4 LPA. During the placement drive of 2020, 100% of students were placed in some of the top recruiters like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Linkedin, etc.

IIIT Lucknow doesn’t have Chemistry and Physics in the curriculum for IT.

IT Culture:

IIIT Lucknow has an All India Rank of 9th and the institution will be heading for the Asia Finals with some of the few IITs and no other IIIT ahead. The institute witnessed 3 GSOCers in the first year itself and the number will be increasing exponentially in the coming future. IIIT Lucknow is among the few campuses in India to have GitHub campus expert, Google DSc as well as Microsoft student partner.

Cultural and Sports Life:

In terms of Cultural and sports life, NIT Patna has great diversity.
On the other hand, if we look upon the speed at which IIITL is being built and establishing itself, it will surpass bigger institutions in no time.
The institution had its own MUN conference. It is organizing various fests and also the sports team are competing at the national level.

The table below gives a brief overview of the two institutes.

It is difficult to say which institute is better since there are many factors to consider. Some of which are discussed below.

If you want to pursue MCA then go with NIT Raipur as NIT Patna does not offer MCA yet.
NIT Raipur has a good placement record in Metallurgy, Mining, B.Arch which is better than most of the NIT’s in India. NIT Patna lags in these departments.
Placement: NIT Patna has a better placement record for core branches as compared to NIT Raipur.

The table below gives a brief overview of the two institutes.

Particulars	NIT Raipur	NIT Patna
Average CTC	INR 9.5 LPA	INR 7.7 LPA
Highest CTC	INR 33 LPA	INR 39.12 LPA
Major Recruiters	TATA, Barclays, Adobe, Reliance, Amazon, Samsung	Oneplus, Amazon, KPIT, TCS, Infosys

NIT Patna is better for core branch degree programs while for certain other branches like MCA, NIT Raipur is good.

Which is better: NIT Patna mechanical or NIT Raipur civil?

Saurabh Das

22 Mar 21

Considering this question following particulars are be listed that will be beneficial for the student to choose their career options.

If a student considers the On-Campus Recruitment process, studying Mechanical in NIT Patna will be beneficial for them.
If the student wants to prepare for Government Exams like UPSC exams, including IAS or IPS, they can go for NIT Raipur.
However, both of these subjects are quite interesting.

The following table gives a brief overview of the placements in Mechanical Engineering of these two institutes:

Criteria	NIT Patna	NIT Raipur
Placement Statistics	89%	65%
Highest CTC	12 LPA	10LPA
Lowest CTC	3 LPA	2.5 LPA
Average CTC	7 LPA	5LPA

NIT Raipur has better NIRF Rankings as compared to NIT Patna. The mechanical department has shown great development in terms of placements. Top companies have visited the campus for the recruitment process.

Which one is better for CSE, NIT PATNA, IIIT Kalyani & IIIT Lucknow considering the last year placements of 40 lpa at Patna?

Amrita Mehra

20 Mar 21

Someone else's package doesn't guarantee that you'll also bag the same package. Out of mentioned options, NIT Patna is a better option not because of the 40 lakh package. The placement package had been offered by Adobe which is said to recruit 2 ladies each offering 20 lakh packages to each. But in 2018, Adobe hired a female student offering her 40 LPA package, which can be true or even wrong information. However, you should not take admission in NIT Patna just because someone bagged a 40 Lakh package. The package will depend on your dedication during the course. It will help you easily earning a 6-8 LPA package.

Categories	NIT Patna	IIIT Kalyani	IIIT Lucknow
Average Package (LPA)	8.8	6.2	11.37
Highest Package in 2020 (LPA)	43.17	17.0	28
Placement Percent	70%	70%	96.80%

While there is no doubt that NIT Patna is an old institution, yet it lacks some of the basic facilities such as hostels and open spaces. The campus is quite small as compared to other engineering colleges. So, it does not feel like a proper campus to some students as they have to spend 4 years there.
In the present time, a mega hostel is being constructed but it is outside the campus. The locality surrounding the campus is very unpleasant.The good thing is that the campus is located beside Ganga, having some modern and beautiful ghats. The management and staff are strict and less creative.

What should be the preference order of NIT Jamshedpur CSE, NIT Jalandhar CSE, and NIT Patna CSE?

Kokila Singh

17 Dec 22

NIT JALANDHAR CSE should be prioritized over NIT JAMSHEDPUR CSE and NIT PATNA CSE. If you look at their placement, you'll see that there isn't much of a difference between these colleges when it comes to this branch. All you need is good infrastructure and a welcoming atmosphere; otherwise, sooner or later you will find yourself regretting your choice somewhere on campus. When discussing the infrastructure of these colleges, you must consider their NIRF ranking.

To be honest, NIT Patna's campus and facilities are fairly mediocre and unsatisfactory. Then there's NIT Jamshedpur, which is right next door. It, too, needs to improve significantly. However, because it is located in an industrial area, it attracts a large number of students who study Electrical, Mechanical, and other related fields.

What should be my preference between CSE at IIIT Guwahati and EEE at NIT Patna/Puducherry?

Dishant Verma

18 Jun 21

According to my friends at IIIT Guwahati, CSE at IIIT Guwahati is definitely a better choice. Let me provide some points which will give you a better insight into the colleges.

The campus of NIT Puducherry is almost 130 km away from the city, located in a remote place known as Karaikal. This hampers placements.
In NIT Puducherry, 90-95% of students are from South India. So, students from other parts of the country face a serious linguistic problem.
For most North Indian Students, it is somewhat hard to sustain in the South Indian culture.
IIIT Guwahati has experienced rapid growth over the last few years, which makes it a much better choice than NIT Patna/ Puducherry.
There is no home state quota in IIIT Guwahati, so there is no such problem of linguistics as in NITs.
In addition, there are 18 students in IIIT Guwahati who are from abroad, selected through the DASA UG scheme of 18 seats.
From 2019, the B.Tech seats were increased by 33% for Girl Supernumerary Quota, because the previous batch had only 3.5% girls. The total number of seats from then is 233.

Categories	CSE at IIIT Guwahati
Course Fee	9.05 lakh
Highest CTC	21 LPA
Average CTC	10-12 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Capgemini, Wipro, Accenture, IBM, etc.

Therefore, IIIT Guwahati has a lot of advantages over NIT Patna/ Puducherry, which makes it a better choice for students in engineering.

Which is better for IT and CS, NIT Patna or IIIT Allahabad?

Tanushree Debnath

05 Jul 21

As one of my close friends studied in the computer science department at NIT Patna, I can say that it is not at the same level as that of IIIT Allahabad. IIIT Allahabad is much more effective compared to NIT. Having studied at IIIT Allahabad, let me give you some facts as to why it stands out.

IIIT Allahabad focuses on programming languages extremely well for those who are planning to master this field.
Many MNCs also hire students from IIIT Allahabad. Many top global companies like Facebook and Google hire young students for their talent. You will probably not find these opportunities at NIT Patna.
Moreover, IIIT Allahabad also has a really big 100-acre campus with 24/7 lab facilities. Compared to this, Patna is quite small.
If you are staying in the hostel, the facilities there are good too.
Lastly, if you are into sports, these facilities are not available at NIT Patna as compared to IIIT Allahabad.

Categories	NIT Patna	IIIT Allahabad
Course Fee	5.70 lakh	5.41 lakh
Highest CTC	30 LPA	45 LPA
Average CTC	17 LPA	20 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Infosys, Wipro, TCS, IBM, etc.	Microsoft, Google, Morgan Stanley, HCL, etc.

IIIT Allahabad has been very well known for its active coding culture and many competitive coding opportunities, hackathons and tech events. So, if you are planning to go for Computer Science and IT, you should go with IIIT Allahabad as compared to NIT Patna.
