Answered Questions
Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology - [VNIT]: 18 answered questions
Ques
Is NIT Calicut better than VNIT and COEP?
Ans
Yes, NIT Calicut is better than VNIT and COEP. If you are getting your desired branch at NIT C go for it. It has better brand recognition and offers better placements and opportunities. NIT Calicut placements 2022 ended with an average CTC of INR 13 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 67.6 LPA.
Ques
Which one is better for computer science and engineering and why: VNIT Nagpur, NIT Calicut, or NIT Rourkela?
Ans
Among these, NIT Calicut is the best option for Computer Science and Engineering. On an overall scale, it is better compared to VNIT Nagpur and NIT Rourkela. NIT Calicut placements are around 100% for CSE. Reputed companies such as Amazon, Infosys, Cisco, and Microsoft recruit CSE students through the campus placements. The average CTC for the branch is around INR 17 LPA.
Ques
In terms of placements, should I go for the IIIT in Allahabad or the VNIT for an MTech in CSE?
Ans
When speaking in terms of placement records, IIIT Allahabad is known only for B.Tech. However, M.Tech at the same institution tends to not get great offers. In fact, most companies do not permit M.Tech students from IIITA to sit for specific interviews.
Companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Hashedin, Morgan Stanley didn’t allow M.Tech students to sit for the interviews one particular year. That is one reason behind why IIIT, Allahabad does not make the placement stats clearly open in a branch-specific manner.
You, as a student, should prefer M.Tech at NIT Nagpur. Mentioned below are the statistics of M.Tech placements of VNIT Nagpur.
Students Placed (PG)
64
Average CTC
10-11.5 LPA
Recruiting Companies
Amazon, Directi, DE Shaw, Zomato, Samsung R&D, etc.
It is important to note that MTech IT (i.e., Intelligent Systems) is very well known at IIITA. If you are choosing to do Intelligent Systems at IIITA, then you will not regret that decision. You definitely will have the chance to sit for every company interview. However, if you do not get Intelligent Systems, then opting to go for NIT Nagpur is highly recommended.
In terms of placement, the preference order of branches are as briefed below:
Intelligent systems, IIITA> CSE, VNIT Nagpur> Advanced computing, NIT Bhopal> Information security, NIT Bhopal> Human-computer interaction, IIITA> Cyber Law IIITA> Software Engineering IIITA> Wireless communication IIITA.
Ques
Which is better, VNIT for metallurgy or NIT Raipur for IT?
Ans
One of my acquaintances who has graduated from VNIT has asked me to choose my institute by keeping the following points in mind.
VNIT for metallurgy would be a suitable choice for you if you don’t have a particular liking. Apart from that, the metallurgy of VNIT holds an enviable position in India. The syllabus for metallurgy is vast and involves a lot of memorization.
If you want CS and unfortunately end up not getting it, the next logical step would be to choose IT. The syllabus of IT and CS are almost the same. In the big picture, it will have little importance if you complete your B.Tech from VNIT or NIT Raipur. You will have a degree and you will not regret the decision you made.
IT has a lot of scopes. Later down the road, if you want to continue with your higher studies, you will be capable of switching to almost any department pertaining to computers. IT from NIT Raipur is an excellent choice.
The scope in the metallurgy sector is limited nowadays. It is obviously your call, though. There is vast scope in IT like research, job, etc.
Ques
Which is better: BITS GOA or VNIT?
Ans
BITS Goa is anytime better than all the NITs in India. The following are the reasons.
BITS Goa has a huge brand name. It is a Tier-1 engineering college in India.
The placement of the institute is excellent as compared to VNIT. BITS Goa has an average 90% placement success rate.
Package
VNIT
BITS Goa

The infrastructure of the college is breathtaking. There are various facilities like well-equipped separate hostels and mess for boys and girls, SAC (student activity center) for a wide range of sports, guest accommodation, medical center, central library, computer labs, and different laboratories.
Overall, the fee of BITS Goa is on the higher side. But it is worth paying for its brand name. BITS Goa offers a lot of scope to the students and encourages the holistic development of the individuals. Even the faculty is experienced and helpful.
Ques
Is CSE better at MNNIT Allahabad or VNIT Nagpur?
Ans
To compare two institutes, you need to consider various factors. A few of such parameters are briefed below.
Placements Statistics
Academics
Alumni Strength
Cutoff Required
Also for CSE, coding Culture
If we compare MNNIT Allahabad and VNIT Nagpur based on these parameters, MNNIT comes ahead, although marginally.
Here is a brief overview of the CSE program offered by the two institutes.
Parameters

VNIT Nagpur
Average CTC

Highest CTC

Other than that, you can also choose a college which is closer to your hometown, if necessary. That way you can save valuable travel time and visit home during holidays.
Ques
Which is better, VNIT Nagpur or IIIT Allahabad, for the ECE branch?
Ans
One of my acquaintances has a better opinion on the same. He says that if you opt to take admission at IIIT Allahabad, then you are more likely to have better opportunities in the IT field.
Mostly, the students of ECE are thoroughly engaged in coding and are known to study ECE because of reasons that center around only graduating.
While, on the flip side, in VNIT Nagpur, the students pursue ECE because they are interested in it.
However, the placements of IT field are more likely to surpass the number of placements seen in ECE fields. This is because the core hardware companies relatively do not share the same amount of trust with the freshers.
If you want to obtain a better salary package after graduating from a B.Tech course, then going for IIIT, Allahabad can be a superior option.
While, if you relevantly want to pursue your career in most of the core ECE companies, then it is suggested that you opt for VNIT, Nagpur.
Yet, here is a brief data about the overall placement, course fees and more about both the institutes,
Intitutes
IIIT, Allahabad
VNIT, Nagpur
Course Fees (1st Year Fees)
1.65 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)
1.49 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)
Average CTC

Top Recruiters

ACC Limited, Amazon, Aarti Industries, Capgemini Technology Services Ltd., Goldman Sachs
However, in most cases, 10-15% of students choose ECE companies, but ever since software companies have become high-paying, several students tend to rather opt for an IT job profile.
Ques
Which should be preferred, CS at VNIT or EEE at NIT Surathkal?
Ans
You are comparing two different branches; Computer (CSE) and Electrical (EEE). If you are naturally inclined towards a particular branch, then you should choose it no matter the institute. If you are not sure about the branch then let me share some facts I got to know while researching about the institutes.
NIRF Engineering Ranking 2020 – VNIT Nagpur is ranked 27 while NIT Surathkal is ranked 13.
Academics – In this regard both are equal. Some professors are good and some are really bad.
Extra-Curricular Activities – NIT Surathkal is way better than VNIT Nagpur. You will always find some activity happening on the campus. VNIT Nagpur does not have any such activities being conducted regularly.
Campus location – VNIT Nagpur is actually better than NIT Surathkal. Although the Surathkal beach which is right beside the college looks good in photos, the same cannot be said in person. The VNIT Nagpur campus on the other hand is clean and green.
Workshops – At VNIT Nagpur most of the workshops organized by the clubs are paid while at NIT Surathkal most of them were free and open to all.
The following table shows a brief insight on relevant facts for both institutes:
Categories
CS at VNIT
EEE at NIT Surathkal
Course Fee
5.50 lakh
5.45 lakh
Highest CTC
25 LPA
15 LPA
Average CTC
10-12 LPA
8-9 LPA
Recruiting Companies
Accenture, Deloitte, Wipro, Dell, etc.
TCS, Phillips, Havells, nVidia, etc.
Now that you have seen the comparison you can choose which one you like based on your needs and expectations. If you want then you can also make your decision based on the placement reports.
Ques
If I am interested in mechanical engineering, which is better, COEP, the College of Engineering Pune, or VJTI in Mumbai, and are they both comparable to VNIT in Nagpur?
