Ques

Which is better, VIT Chennai or IET Lucknow?

● Top Answer By Anushua Banerjee on 18 Aug 22

Ans

IET Lucknow is better. Being a Govt. institute it charges a lower course fee. If you are planning on preparing for competitive examinations like CAT, GATE, GRE, etc. IET will be the right choice. The college schedule is flexible and leaves a lot of room for exploring other interests. Lucknow has good coaching institutes for competitive examinations. At IET, you will meet seniors who have qualified GATE, CAT, GRE, etc. They will be able to guide you regarding preparations.

Ques

Which is better VIT Chennai or PEC Chandigarh?

● Top Answer By Krishna Mathur on 04 May 21

Ans

VIT is better as it has more than 200 companies coming for CSE students. If the student wants to go into a college with better placements or better exposure. The table shows a brief overview of the institution: Particulars PEC Chandigarh VIT Chennai Average Salary Rs. 8-10 lakhs Rs. 7.25 lakhs Highest Salary Rs. 45 lakhs Rs. 41.6 lakhs Entrance Criteria JEE Main VITEEE Fees Rs. 6.39 lakhs Rs. 4.84-7.8 lakhs The intake of students in VIT is not great as students above the rank of 2000 in VITEEE join some other colleges. VIT has seats for merit up to only 6000 rank holders in CSE. Concluding only one thing that 80% of those 1300 VIT CSE students get through management quota. So, if the student is worthy then they will find themselves humiliated with children who come there through management quota. That's why even if the student gets a lower branch in PEC, take it as PEC is the legacy of notable alumni and will continue to remain. Unless you have a certain inclination towards some branch then do opt for PEC the student will never regret it. It is not possible to decide your inclination just after completing 12th as there is plenty of knowledge awaiting. When you take a branch that you probably didn’t realize in school also the placements in PEC are nice now it is on par with VIT. Overall, PEC is the potential choice.

Ques

Which is better VIT or NIT Raipur for CSE?

● Top Answer By Mukund Agarwal on 08 Apr 21

Ans

According to a senior of mine who has graduated from NIT Raipur, the institute is better than most top colleges in Bangalore including VIT institutes. Despite having a soft spot for NIT Raipur, she does not discourage candidates from trying their luck at any other university, including VITs. She, however, suggests that they should get acquainted for measuring progress after completion of the undergraduate degree. Campus: VIT campus is definitely better than the NIT Raipur campus. Although the NIT Raipur has been considerably renovated. The VIT campus will cost around 2 lakhs per year which includes hostel fees as well. Education at NIT Raipur will cost around 0.5 lakhs. Course: The course of VIT will not have any effect on your CSE placement. On the other hand, your coding skills and DS+Algo will have a part to play in your placement. Either way, the effort is required regardless of how much you pay. Placements: By the time you graduate, if you choose NIT Raipur, that is, the institute will pretty much be holding its own among other giants. My senior said two of her batchmates landed a 75 LPA package without paying hefty college fees. VIT, being a private college, is known to boost their placement records. In addition to that, they have a management quota as well which goes on to say that not all the best minds will be found there. A friend of my seniors had a good rank and went to VIT. He got chosen in three companies. VIT attracts employers in large numbers but they offer packages of only around 3-3.5 LPA. In the case of NIT Raipur, almost every candidate will get at least one job, in recent years many also bagged two jobs. The ones who have, get a package of 4-8 LPA for the first job, and a package of as much as 16-17 LPA for the second job. Candidates who do not get a second job also land a job with a package of 4-8 LPA. Overall, it is safe to say that CSE from NIT Raipur will be a good option.

Ques

Which is better - NIT Raipur or VIT Chennai?

● Top Answer By Pooja Sharma on 20 Apr 21

Ans

If you compare NIT Raipur and VIT Chennai, then NIT Raipur is much better than VIT. In the given table you will get the basic information of NIT Raipur and VIT Chennai. Here are few reasons why NIT Raipur is a better option. Government College: NIT Raipur is a government college, and VIT Chennai is a private college. Hence the fees will be less. Fees: NIT Raipur hostel and tuition fees are lower than VIT. Placement: I have one of my relatives studying in VIT Chennai. The placement cell of VIT is not better than NIT. The placement of the NIT Raipur core branch is good. Salary Packages: Students at NIT Raipur have been offered the highest salary of 11.30 LPA while for VIT Chennai, 39 LPA was the highest. Infrastructure: The infrastructure of NIT is not as good as VIT. But the college is located in the city center and is rapidly developing. However, NIT does not have a good laboratory facility, if you are choosing Biotechnology or Biomedical Engineering. VIT has a better laboratory facility. Attendance: NIT Raipur is off on weekends. Also, NIT does not have a struct 75% attendee rule, which gives students time to relax and enjoy their college life. Hostel: Boys do not have a strict time restriction. Girls do face some restrictions while being on time. However, the management is working towards improving it. Therefore, if you are choosing between NIT Raipur and VIT Chennai, then choose the former. The placement of NIT Raipur is also good. Branches like Electronics and Telecommunications, CSE, Electrical, Mechanical have good placement records. However, Metallurgy, CE, Mining branch placement is not very promising. So make your decision based on these things.

Ques

Which would be better, VIT CSE or NIT Puducherry electrical engineering?

● Top Answer By Aniket Chatterjee on 01 Oct 21

Ans

VIT CSE is better in terms of placements, industry exposure, opportunities, and many other things as compared to NIT Puducherry Electrical. According to the recent placement highlights of VIT, the average CTC offered was 6 LPA and the highest CTC offered was 75 LPA. On the other hand, NIT Puducherry is a Govt. college. It changes less course fee. For a B.E degree, NIT Puducherry charges around 2.17 lakhs, while a B.Tech from VIT will cost around 8 lakhs. The peer group at the institute is great. You will also have the NIT tag with your degree. That is certainly a perk of pursuing a degree at NIT Puducherry. However, you should choose the institute based on your interest. If you like coding go for VIT CSE, or if you like basic sciences more than NIT Puducherry Electrical Engineering will be a better option for you.

Ques

Which is better VIT or Tezpur University?

● Top Answer By Anupam Chatterjee on 20 Oct 21

Ans

One of my cousins was in the same situation. He had very few options, mainly VIT, Tezpur University, and few NITs. He did some research and found that Tezpur University is considered the best central government institute. After talking to some students of the institute he also learned that the institute is great although the placement rate is not that good. It is a decent option if you want to pursue research. His focus was placements. So, he chose VIT, Chennai and now he is a proud alumnus of the institute. Here is a brief comparison of Tezpur University and VIT. Parameters Tezpur University VIT Course fee 2.11 lakhs 7.83 lakhs Average CTC 3.5 LPA 6.39 LPA Highest CTC 14 LPA 44 LPA Major recruiters HDFC, ICICI, Axis Bank HP, Infosys, Microsoft So, choose an institute based on what you want out of your degree.

Ques

What should be my decision to join if I have 2 opportunities, VIT Chennai ECE or Amrita Bangalore CSE groups?

● Top Answer By Aparna Madhusudan on 19 Jul 21

Ans

ECE and CSE are two different departments, providing separate career opportunities. VIT Chennai and Amrita University Bangalore offer decent placement to students in these departments. The points below give a brief overview of both the choices: In CSE, there are excellent package offers in institutes like Amrita and VIT, thus increasing your chance of getting a good salary at the beginning of your career. ECE is a stream of a kind, which has its own charm. In ECE, students grow slowly with time and earn decent salaries, provided they are passionate about the field of work. ECE in VIT Chennai is a great department, having a world-class infrastructure. The curriculum is at par with the industry needs. The professors at VIT Chennai are connected to the industry and other academic institutes to aid in research. All major electronics companies visit the campus of VIT Chennai for placement. Almost 20% of the students in the department get a package above 10 LPA in general from companies like Samsung, TI, Nutanix, etc. A major percentage of about 70-80% of students in ECE at VIT Chennai get a package between 5-8 LPA. Companies like Cisco, Intel, Wipro VLSI, Arista Networks offer salaries in this range. There are also some non-tech companies like Deloitte, E&Y, Bank of America, PWC, Wells Fargo, etc that recruit students from ECE. In VIT Chennai, there are very few students who opt for job offers in service-based companies like TCS, Accenture, Infosys, CTS, etc. Therefore, both ECE at VIT Chennai and CSE at Amrita Bangalore are good options. It is the choice of the student as to what excites him/her the most and opts for a degree in the same.
