Ques

Which is the best, NIT Srinagar for chemical or mechanical engineering from Muzaffarpur Institute of Technology (Bihar)?

● Top Answer By Sheetal Gaur on 16 Jul 21

Ans

Having friends who studied Chemical Engineering from NIT Srinagar, I can assure that it is really good. Various PSUs visited the chemical department and offered great packages. All of those who were recruited are currently doing very well in life as they have stable jobs. Out of these candidates, there were certain ones who chose to go for further studies. And as far as I remember, one of my batchmates scored really well in the GATE exam. Some of my batchmates decided to go for an MBA from the National University of Singapore - which is a very prestigious institute. Categories Chemical Engineering at NIT Srinagar Course Fee 5.30 lakh Highest CTC 16-22 LPA Average CTC 9.5 LPA Recruiting Companies Vedanta, Hindustan Unilever, TCS, IBM, etc. Also, in terms of participating in any extracurricular activities to the academics, everything that NIT Srinagar would offer would prove to be extremely fruitful to you. And eventually, the point where you would stop and stabilize yourself would entirely depend upon how wisely you had utilized the four years of your life there.

Ques

Is NIT Srinagar good for ECE? How is the placement scenario?

● Top Answer By Daishi Munshi on 16 Jul 21

Ans

Your question is about the placement scenario for the students of ECE background. One of my friends studied ECE at NIT Srinagar, and here’s what he has to say about it. Students who are from ECE or CSE end up getting placed well as the companies that show up are quite reputed. The students from ECE can get placed at a CSE-oriented company too. The faculty is not up to the mark with only a handful of professors who are well experienced. Other faculty members are temporary. Your performance will depend on how hard-working and attentive you are. Categories ECE at NIT Srinagar Course Fee 5.30 lakh Highest CTC 8-10 LPA Average CTC 6.86 LPA Recruiting Companies Microsoft, ONGC, Samsung, NTPC, Wipro, Zomato, Indian Oil, JCB, etc. You can expect a set of new and better faculty to show up who would be much more experienced than the ones that pre-exist.

Ques

How is the placement for metallurgy engineering in NIT Srinagar?

● Top Answer By Sulagna Palit on 14 Jul 21

Ans

One of my friends studied at NIT Srinagar. According to him it is really good if you are from an IT background. The placements are better also. But metallurgy might not be as popular as the IT branches. The placements are not good in the metallurgy engineering branch as it is the same case for other colleges as well. But, this doesn’t end here, as many toppers who crack the GATE are from metallurgy engineering. As you will get a lot of free time to prepare for other exams like GATE, CAT, UPSC, etc. Moreover, the other reasons for under placements for metallurgy engineering is the inflation in Steel sectors and many others which doesn’t let the companies visit the campus. Categories Metallurgy at NIT Srinagar Course Fee 5.30 lakh Highest CTC 11 LPA Average CTC 6 LPA Lowest CTC 5 LPA Recruiting Companies Vedanta JSW, SAIL, IOCL, etc. The placement for metallurgy engineering in NIT Srinagar is average. So choose according to your personal requirements and preferences. You can opt for it if you are really passionate about metallurgy.

NIT Srinagar is good and if it is discussed in the North East, it is the most excellent. The infrastructure is quite good and the college administration is focused enough to give proper resources to each of its students for their appropriate development.

Ques

Which is best, ECE at NIT Srinagar or CS in HBTI Kanpur?

● Top Answer By Arushi Debnath on 19 Apr 21

Ans

Considering this question, the first criteria are always the student’s preferences. According to that, they should choose the colleges, either NIT Srinagar or HBTI Kanpur. NIT Srinagar is a reputed institute; additionally, HBTU is also an ancient and esteemed institute. The new Vice-Chancellor of the second one is completely dedicated to institutional development, and the institute is developing radically over the past few years. Besides, if you consider the placement facts, then CSE is just edged that ECE regarding the CTC. But, ECE also has several opportunities in both Government and private sectors. It is also quite close considering the placements facts to CSE because IT companies also allow ECE students to sit in the recruitment process. In the following, a brief overview has been given considering the placement facts of these two institutes. Criteria NIT Srinagar HBTU Highest CTC 30 LPA 37 LPA Lowest CTC 5 LPA 7.18 LPA Average CTC 6-8 LPA 10 LPA Placement Statistics 85% 90% Another important thing that you may consider is that location is which institute is nearer to your home. So, it can be concluded that both of these institutes are equally good. One of my friends was a former student of HBTU, so he was quite partial to his institute, as he studied there, so he knew better. From the year 2018, to get admission to HBTU, the student has to qualify 12th standard board exam from UP, or their parents must belong to the UP domicile.

Ques

Which college is better: NIT Srinagar or LPU?

● Top Answer By Priti Roy on 14 Jul 21

Ans

It is advised you opt for NIT Srinagar as it bears you a tag and reputation which will last with you for a lifetime. So, definitely, I would personally suggest you too to opt for NIT even though LPU is an enormously varied University. Besides, NIT Srinagar has a beautiful campus. NIT is a brand, you get a lot to hear about it. But, being a government institute you can get admission on the basis of JEE marks itself. LPU has its own privileges of assisting students with better infrastructure, academic facilities and Diaspora to explore areas like extracurricular activities. Coming to placements, no doubt the placement record of LPU is good. You will easily secure a job in the fields of CSE/IT and ECE. If you are from core Mechanical and Civil then you will get a chance to explore your skills through various international level platforms. Categories NIT Srinagar LPU Course Fee 5.30 lakh 8.16 lah Highest CTC 11-15 LPA 25 LPA Average CTC 6-10 LPA 16 LPA Recruiting Companies TCS, Tech Mahindra, ZS Associates, Wipro, etc. Accenture, Cognizant, IBM, HCL, etc. Though both are good in their respective places. But if you prefer an NIT tag, you can opt for NIT Srinagar. Otherwise choose LPU, if you plan to get placed in a top IT company.

Ques

Which is best for mechanical engineering, Nirma University or NIT Srinagar or North East NITs?

● Top Answer By Gargi Sengupta on 06 Jul 21

Ans

NIT Srinagar is the best option among the ones mentioned in the question. But living in Srinagar is challenging. If you can deal with frequent disruption and non-functionality of the institute then you can choose NIT Srinagar. Nirma University can be a good alternative too. It is one of the best engineering colleges in Gujarat as well as India. As it is located on the Gandhinagar-Ahmedabad highway, many reputed MNCs visit the campus. Nirma has a 120-acre campus. It offers good infrastructure. Their placement record is also quite impressive. Almost 90% of students get placed in reputed companies. The only disadvantage of choosing Nirma is that they don’t offer a hostel. In North-East, you can go with Agartala or Silchar.

Ques

How is the scope (placement and package) for chemical engineering at NIT Srinagar?

● Top Answer By Sushmita Mondal on 16 Jul 21

Ans

A close friend of mine studied at NIT Srinagar. He had completed his B.Tech in Chemical Engineering. Here presenting some information shared by him about placements and packages. The placement stats of NIT Srinagar is not constant as the figures tend to change each year. And this happens essentially because of a lot of external factors like - the circumstances in Kashmir, faculty, and even the infrastructure. There are some bitter things you have to acknowledge when it comes to NIT Srinagar, especially for the placement scenario of its Chemical Engineering department. Core companies: The only company that gives a ray of hope to the students present here is Vedanta. Out of so many students each year, there are only a lucky 3-4 number of students who manage to grab a package of 8 lakhs. Excluding Vedanta, literally, no other company willingly shows up at NIT Srinagar. Non-core companies: As far as these non-core companies are concerned, a huge number of them show up at NIT Srinagar offering placements for students belonging to any branch. The average package that they carry to offer is 3-4 lakhs. Speaking about the Chemical Engineering department, there are around 9-10% of students who manage to grab a job for themselves once they have completed their B.Tech degree. What eventually is left for the rest of the students at Chemical Engineering at NIT Srinagar is to crack the GATE examination.
