Which is better, CSE at IIIT Kalyani or electronics in IIIT Guwahati?

Lakshit Sharma

IIIT Guwahati is way better than IIIT Kalyani. Many of the students who were formerly enrolled in IIIT Kalyani. They left the college after analyzing the faculty, infrastructure, and hostel facilities.

My brother was in NIT Silchar before being a part of IIIT Guwahati. He went there and found out that many students were from IIIT Kalyani. Everyone has different reasons for leaving Kalyani. However, none of them were praising IIIT Kalyani.

On the other hand, they were pleased to join IIIT Guwahati. Some factors that make IIITG a better institute than IIIT Kalyani:

Faculty to student ratio is very good
Great infrastructure
Good hostel and sports facilities
Better academic syllabus as they follow their mentor institute IITG and IIITH
Location of the institute

Hence, you can definitely go for IIITG as an institute rather than joining IIIT Kalyani. As far as the branches are concerned, CSE and ECE are totally different. But, at the end of the day, you have to decide which college you want to join. If you give more preference to the branch, you should join IIIT Kalyani but if you feel like you can slide or change your branch after the first year, you can join IIITG.

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

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.

Which should I prefer, IIIT Kalyani, IIIT Naya Raipur, IIIT Bhopal, or IIIT Surat for CSE?

If you are considering pursuing higher education at IIIT Naya Raipur, it's important to evaluate the placement opportunities and other factors to ensure it aligns with your career goals. Here are some points to consider:

Placement opportunities: IIIT Naya Raipur has decent placement opportunities, but it's important to note that most of the high-paying placements are outside India. While earning 30 LPA in a developed country may seem attractive, it's important to understand that the cost of living and other factors may offset the high salary. Additionally, these placements may be on a temporary basis, meaning you may have to look for a new job once the project is complete.
Private college vs NIT: IIIT Naya Raipur is a private college, which means it may not have the same level of resources and opportunities as a national institute like NIT. NITs are well-established institutes with a strong reputation and better infrastructure, which can provide you with a better learning experience and more opportunities.
State government focus: Chhattisgarh lacks strong infrastructure and government support for innovation and startups. The government's focus is more on providing basic necessities to the people and votes banks. Therefore, apart from campus placements, it may be challenging to find opportunities in the state.

In conclusion, while IIIT Naya Raipur may offer decent placement opportunities, it's important to evaluate other factors such as infrastructure, government support for innovation, and reputation before making a decision. Considering a national institute like NIT may be a better option for a more comprehensive learning experience and better opportunities.

Which is better, IIIT Kalyani or IIIT Bhopal?

Recently one of my cousins graduated from IIIT Bhopal. If you want to examine the above two options then surely I would say IIIT Bhopal is better because of certain problems IIIT Kalyani encountered in the past few months.

Even after, the major problems which IIIT Bhopal was meeting were Clubs and hostel issues. About two to three clubs of IIIT Bhopal have started playing into the role on their own and in the coming year. You can even expect more, although few clubs of MANIT also have IIIT Bhopal students.

Categories	IIIT Kalyani	IIIT Bhopal
Course Fee	7.91 lakh	6.68 lakh
Placement Percentage	69%	-
Highest CTC	17.0 LPA	12.5-15 LPA
Average CTC	6.2 LPA	6 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Infosys, TCS, Jio, Smartprix, Information Logitech, etc.	Amazon, GEP, Saggezza, Infoedge, DRDO, etc.

As I already mentioned before the distance of the Hostel is an issue with the administration which is supposed to be settled in the coming future. Apparently, the classes for the students of IIIT Bhopal are occurring in NTB-MANIT. The lab facilities for IIIT students have been made available.
