Shiksha All Time Q&A

IIT, Kanpur in no way is a better choice than IIT, Kharagpur due to various reasons.
IIT, Kanpur students enjoy lots of freedom and can feel independent as the college administration makes you feel mature enough to take rational judgements whereas norms are strict at IIT, Kharagpur.
IIT, Kanpur has an average placement of 12 LPA and highest reaching up to 23 LPA whereas in IIT, Kharagpur it is 10.5 LPA, highest reaching up to 19 lakh.
Although, the labs and all other equipment related facilities are remarkable in both the institutes but still, Kanpur campus is more vibrant than Kharagpur consisting a pool of talented minds in it.
Now, in terms of sports facilities, both the institutes provide sufficient equipment and sports related accessories but, the court at IIT-Kanpur is better and much modern than IIT, Kharagpur which is reflected in the inter IIT sports meet.

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.

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.

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.

Anna University is one of the best semi-private colleges in the Southern India and ranks 11th on the list of the best engineering colleges in India in the public sector.
The college happens to offer the best of the placement in Southern India because of the fact that the acceptance rate of students in the college is really low because of which the college has only good quality students which are able to get through big package offers given by the companies.
The only drawback for the colleges is that the total placement percentage is really low which is why there is a risk of an individual not being placed in the college. Although the colleges are sure to provide you with the best undergraduate computer science programme which is having the best faculty to guide you well.
There are some very big placements happening in the college while there are some disappointments at the same time. So it is all on you and your hard work to get the best out of your college.
I hope you do well.
