Remarks:

My admission was through Jee Main CSAB round 2. The cut-off for mechanical brach was close to my percentile of 96.75. So luckily I got in my favorite branch. There's no application as such just follow JOSAA counselling steps, they tell everything from filling choices to getting your letter for admission. It is difficult to make correct choices of colleges and branches so research carefully and thoroughly.

Inside the mind of NITCians

Remarks:

There is no such application form for NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY CALICUT. You have to apply for jee mains and score good marks there and then you have to apply for JOSAA ( The Joint Seat Allocation Authority ) and there you have to fill in the choices of your wish. Application dates are as per the JOSAA, time table. The application fee for JOSAA counseling is 75k for general and OBC candidates and 35k for SC and ST candidates. Which 3k will be taken by them and the remaining will be sent to the college. Reservation is there in NITC as well, as it is a government-funded college where SC gets most then ST then OBC followed by EWS, and ends with general. The only thing I thought is paying the fee not in JOSAA, but to the college directly.

Which is better, CS in NIT Calicut or CS in BITS Goa?

By Debdeep Majumderon 05 Sept 22

Gautam Sinha

05 Sept 22MSc + BTech dual from BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus

CS in BITS Goa is better. It offers better placements compared to NIT Calicut. Companies such as Microsoft, Google, IBM, Amazon, and Uber visit BITS Goa placements. The average CTC offered to CSE students in the campus placement is INR 15-20 LPA. Almost every student of the branch receives recruitment through the campus drive.

BITS offers better learning resources and facilities. The student crowd of the institute is excellent, owing to their no reservation policy.

How is NIT Calicut regarding the placements for an MTech in VLSI design?

By Aaditya Hari Nairon 25 Aug 21

Meghna Roy

25 Aug 21B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2018)

I have a friend who recently graduated with M.Tech in VLSI Design from NIT Calicut. According to him, the placements are great. According to recent placement highlights, the average CTC offered at the institute is 11 LPA.

In order to secure decent placements, all you need is the following.

Knowledge of EDA tools of Mentor or Cadence or Synopsys.
Be skilled in RTL, Verilog coding.
Know basics of verification and design parameters for speed vs power vs area.

You also should have sound knowledge of Place and Route; extract parameters to compare or adjust design parameters with layout changes. The demand in this field is high. Work hard and you will succeed.

How are placements for an MTech at the NIT Calicut?

By Monikaon 26 Mar 21

Isha Harjai

26 Mar 21B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

The placements for M.Tech is pathetic unless you are a CS/IT student. There are a lot of core companies that do not even allow PG students to sit for the placement. Even after this, the students might get sidelined and undergraduate students will be hired.

Students keep on preparing for the interviews and at the end, they are told at the last minute that PGs are not shortlisted. This also includes students with a good academic record and a good CGPA. While the irony is, the students are shortlisted based on their good academic record and good CGPA. A lot of students have experienced this personally multiple times.

Placement Statistics at NIT Calicut

Category	NIT Calicut
Companies Visited	CISCO, Tata Motors, etc.
Average Package	11.58 lakhs
Number of Internships	151
Number of Companies	133
Placement Percentage	73.55%
Highest Package	49.7 lakhs

CSE and ECE might have good placements. Intel usually takes a good number of M.Tech of VLSI for internships as well as grade 5 officers. But all others are not up to the mark according to them. However, if you would like to pursue Ph.D. after MTech and go into the field of teaching/research, rather than industrial jobs, the brand name of NIT Calicut is going to help you a lot.

There are certain solutions to this as well. You might be saved in this scandal if you manage to get an internship towards the end of your first year as it might lead to a permanent job, at the least. If you are planning to make your future in a corporate career, the students shouldn't stay on campus for their thesis, they must opt for an internship opportunity. This will help the students to grab a good offer at the least.

Is NIT Calicut a Tier 1 college?

By Deepika Kunwaron 26 Mar 21

Kunal Sharma

26 Mar 21B.Tech Computer Science, National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2023)

The definition of a Tier 1 college may vary from person to person as it majorly depends on an individual’s opinion. Yet going by the general characteristics defined for a Tier 1 college, it can be successfully concluded that NIT Calicut is a Tier 1 college.

Category	NIT Calicut
Ranking	#23 by NIRF
Courses offered	B. Tech, B. Arch, M. Tech, MBA, M. Plan, M. Sc, PhD.
Entrance Exam Accepted	JEE Main, GATE, CAT, UGC-NET, JRF and NIMCET.
Highest Package	49.7 lakhs

Various reasons can be stated for the same –

If we consider the NIRF as a major deciding factor then it can be seen that the college has seen a huge rise from 2018, and now it has shifted to the 23rd position.
The courses, faculties including the facilities provided by the college are at par as to what you can expect from a top tier college.
We can conclude that in the placement scenario, the college has seen a steady rise in the median and the highest package over the last couple of years. The median salary for last year stood around 8 lakhs per annum.

Hence, we can conclude that it is a tier -1 college and is far better than many IITs and NITs. As per the NIRF ranking, It stands at the 28th position all over India leaving behind IITs, NITs, and other colleges in the Engineering stream. Among the NITs, it stands at the top 5th position.

The college stands at 3 all over India, where only 2 IITs, i.e. IIT Roorkee and IIT Kharagpur are better than it while among the rest of the colleges and the NITs, it is at the first position in Architecture. All of these facts further strengthen the argument that NIT Calicut is a tier -1 college in India.

How is the computer science branch in NIT Calicut?

By Karan Gargon 21 Aug 21

Rishita Gupta

21 Aug 21Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (IITB) (2019)

It is good overall, but nothing beats the computer science department at any of the old IITs. Still, if you are not getting any of the main branches in IITs, you should go for it.

Alternatively, if you are really passionate about CS and you are not getting it in any IIT (which, I believe, is pretty obvious from your question), you should consider taking an NIT.

NIT Calicut is regarded as one of the best NITs, with a strong CS department.
You will have no problems with placements because they are quite good over there.
You can speak with any alumni or a current student over there, they are extremely cooperative.

Some important information regarding CSE at NIT Calicut are :

Total course fee	5.42 lakh
Placement rate	75%
Average salary package	8 lakhs
Highest salary package	36 lakhs

Many of my friends studied at NIT Calicut. According to them it is really good. If you do not get into IITs then NIT Calicut is the best option available for you.

How do I reach NIT Calicut?

By Aaditya Hari Nairon 26 Mar 21

Shailja Khandelwa

26 Mar 21B.Tech. from National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2019)

Kerala is well-connected by road, rail, and air. NIT Calicut campus is located approximately 22 km from Calicut City (Kozhikode City) on the Calicut to Kunnamangalam to Mukkam Road.

Traveling By train:

Reach Calicut station and from there go to Palayam bus stand which is approximately 0.8 km away from the railway station.
From the Palayam bus stand, there you will get private buses every five to ten minutes to Mukkam via Kunnamangalam and NIT Calicut.
Ensure that you are getting a bus that goes via NIT. It will take 40 to 45 minutes to reach.

Traveling By Bus:

If you are going by bus to Calicut, go to the Mofussil Bus stand (Puthiya Bus Stand), at Mavoor road.
You can ask the nearby shopkeepers and go to the west side of the bus stand.
Get a bus that goes to Mukkam through NIT. These buses usually start from the Palayam Bus stand.

Alternatively, you also can take an Auto rickshaw from the west side, reach Palayam stand, and get a bus to NIT. Auto rickshaw price usually will be Rs. 350 to Rs. 400 from Calicut to NIT.

Which is better, NIT Calicut for CSE or IIIT Bangalore for CSE?

By Sudeshna Bharon 26 Mar 21

Somya Gupta Sharma

26 Mar 21Studied Political Science at Ramjas, Delhi University

My brother has visited both institutes. So, I know a little bit about NIT Calicut and IIIT Bangalore. If you're talking about B. Tech in CSE, NITC is undoubtedly the best.

NITC remains ahead in terms of ranking compared to IIITB. But this doesn't necessarily mean that IIITB is not a good college. IIITB is a pretty new college and has only been offering M. Tech in IT for a long time, and this is one of the reasons why it does not have much recognition among students.

IIITB does not have a B. Tech program, but recently it started offering a 5-year Integrated M. Tech program. Right now, the second batch is about to pass. The first batch has passed out with remarkable achievements. IIITB has been more of an M. Tech-focused institute since its start. The faculties are really good here.

Placements: When it comes to placement IIITB gets the upper hand. Being situated in Bangalore, the college also attracts a lot of software companies.

Infrastructure: In terms of infrastructure, NIT Calicut is way better than IIIT Bangalore.

Academics:

IIITB focuses a lot on academics. The level of dedication and the hard work that both students and professors put in is commendable.
It has a coding culture much better than the NITC.
The senior-junior relationship in IIITB is great. Seniors put in a lot of time and effort into mentoring their own juniors, which you can never experience at NITC.
Also, the IIITBians won a lot of coding tournaments that had happened in Bangalore.

So, go through the above-mentioned points and make your decision wisely.
