Shiksha All Time Q&A

NITs are the premier engineering institutes in India. NIT Calicut is one these NITs and is pretty well known all over India. According to the National Institute ranking framework it stands at 44th rank among all the engineering colleges in India.
For Chemical Engineering out of 70 students who enrolled for placements only 38 were placed. Minimum salary offered was 4.5 LPA while the average salary offered was 7.4 LPA. Maximum package offered was 12.5 LPA. So the placements for chemical were decent at NIT Calicut.

NITs are the premier engineering institutes in India. NIT Calicut is one these NITs and is pretty well known all over India. According to the National Institute ranking framework it stands at 44th rank among all the engineering colleges in India.
For engineering physics out of 12 students who enrolled for placements only 2 were placed. One got a salary of 4.5 LPA and other got a salary of 4.2 LPA making the average salary 4.35 LPA as such. You should know that Engineering physics is mainly a research based branch so placements are ought to be less as compared to other branches.

Hi,
Both the colleges are well reputed with excellent placement records, however, CSE from BITS, Pilani is the better option.
Here is a comparison between them:
BITS Pilani:
Intake:-120 (CSE)
Placements-
Average package:- 11 LPA
Highest package:- 60 LPA
Recruiters:- Cisco, Flipkart, Facebook, Mu Sigma, Qualcomm, Nvidia, IBM, Texas Instruments, Accenture, Deloitte, Google, L&T, JP Morgan, Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, TVS, Vodafone, ARM, Nestle, Virtusa, Abott, ACS, Philips, Bosch, HCL, etc.

VIT University:
Intake:- 240 (CSE)
Placements-
Average package:- 6 LPA
Highest package:- 24 LPA
Recruiters:- TCS, Wipro, Microsoft, Tally Solutions, HP, HCL, Tech Mahindra and many more.

Both the colleges are doing well in their respective streams and aiming at providing quality packages to the students, so it is difficult to judge a particular college on the basis of only one parameter.
Comparison can be done through:
1. Labs and facilities: Though it is one of the most important parts of mechanical engineering to know about the practical application of machinery taught in the theory part, for that, RC College leads in providing the same.
Also, RV College has many clubs related and working in racing and robotics development hence providing better exposure to all.
Also, talking about past placement scenario, the average placement in RV College is 8 LPA, highest goes up to 16 LPA offered by Mu Sigma in this year's placement session. In BMS College, the placement package offered is around 4 LPA and highest reaches up to 10 LPA.

Alliance College of Engineering and Design has been really unpredictable in terms of the performance in placements every year.
Although the number of companies including the IT companies and core ones that are willing to recruit computer science students from the college remain the same, which are:
Amazon, Flipkart, Infosys, Wipro, Deloitte, HDFC Bank, HSBC, TCS, HCL, Technologies Honeywell, Akamai Technologies, Bharti Airtel, ICICI Bank, AIG Group and Axis Bank.
You can expect a placement of around 3.5 LPA to 6 LPA, the reason for such a large range is because to placement depends on the performance of the college in that year.
Also, the minimum placement package for computer science students for the year 2017 was around 2.5 LPA.
The highest placement package for the branch was around 15 LPA for the year 2016 and is expected to increase in the coming years.
Hence I would recommend one to join the college based on the faculty present in the department at the time of the admission.

Placements were fine, means at least 90% of the seniors got placed. The lowest salary was 4 lakhs and the maximum was 18 lakhs. Companies like IBM, Microsoft, Infosys and Wipro came. This year, 30 to 40% got internships were from the college itself. The stipend was offered from a minimum of 1,000 to maximum of 5,000. The college offers a placement rate of 99%. TCS, Wipro, CTS etc., but around 10 to 12 people got placed in core companies like IBM, Amazon etc. The packages vary from company to company and most students got around 3.5 to 4.5 LPA. If you manage to get placed in core companies, the packages offered are around 12 to 16 LPA.

Other than the mass recruiters, hundreds of companies come to our university for recruitments. There are 100% placements for CSE, IT and ECE.
100+ IT companies are being called by our excellent placement team. The placement is best in its work and will not let down the opportunities for you. If you really are good in your field, you can certainly crack the placements of many giant companies who have their recruitment process in our university.
Summing it all up, you would not at all be disappointed by the kind of opportunities this college provides you for your better future.

Hi,
BITS Pilani is way too better than SRM University in terms of exposure and placements.

It depends upon your interest whether you choose computer science engineering or aeronautical engineering.
Vellore Institute of Technology and Manipal Institute of Technology both of them are the best private engineering colleges of India.
According to me, computer science engineering from Vellore Institute of Technology is much better than aeronautical engineering from Manipal Institute of Technology because of the following reasons
1. Fee structure of Vellore Institute of Technology is about 7.8 Lakh and fee structure of Manipal Institute of Technology and aeronautical engineering is about 12.8 Lakh .
2. Faculty of Vellore Institute of Technology is much better than Faculty of Manipal Institute of Technology.
3. Facilities provided to the students of computer science engineering in Vellore Institute of Technology is much better than facilities provided to the aeronautical engineering students of Manipal Institute of Technology.
4 Placement:
IN VIT:
The average package offered by the companies is about 6.5 Lakh per annum and the highest package is about 24 Lakh per annum.
IN MIT
The average package offered by the companies is about 3 Lakh per annum.
Hope it helps.

When the comparison is between IIITs and IITs, the war is always in favour of IITs whether it be any branch or stream.
The reason being the quality of students, management of IITs, the large-scale organization of events as well as technical and cultural fests from which students learn a lot.
Although, a IIIT may have a better infrastructure due to its late establishment but is overcome by the vibrant lifestyle of IITs.
Now coming to the placement statistics, the average there at IIT Guwahati is around 18 lakh per annum whereas 12 lakh from IIIT Vadodara.
Also, the highest package ever from IIT Guwahati is around 92 lakh in google whereas is 27 lakh from IIITvadodra creating a huge difference between the two.
Now, one may get into IIIT through Mains and through advance in IIT.
Sincerely, there is a lot of hard work needed for getting into CSE for any of the IITs, NITs and IIIT, but the preference should always be given to the IITs than top NITs and then top IIIT. Although some IIITs are working exceptionally well up to the mark of IITs, which are IIIT Hyderabad and IIIT Allahabad.
Thank you. Hope it will help you.
