Studied economics at Hansraj college of Delhi University (2018)

Since my brother studied M.Tech from IIIT Allahabad, I will be able to answer your question about the placement possibilities of MTech in Intelligent Systems. 

First of all there are two big advantages of enrolling in this branch :

  1. You will get the opportunity to learn great stuff from some of the finest professors.
  2. You will get a Chance to sit in almost every company you have ever heard of Google (off campus via APAC), such as Microsoft etc.

Intelligence system of college: The Intelligent system is all about how you develop the intelligence of a machine. It includes machine learning that ultimately teaches the ability to learn about a machine, say object recognition, human pose recognition, etc.

Placements:

Categories

IIIT Allahabad

Course Fee

3.24 lakh

Average CTC

10.4 LPA

Recruiting Companies

Adobe, Accenture, HCL, IBM, etc.

Basic placement requirements you need to focus upon are as follows:

  1. In almost every company that visits the campus, you will be given a chance to sit and try your luck.
  2. To sit for the placements, you'll have to compete with the B.tech crowd. And everyone here is very studious and competitive, so it won’t be easy for you at all.
  3. Companies do not come to a particular branch (rarely happens, like 1 out of 80 companies)
  4. Recruiters don't care about your branch, they just want to know how qualified you are in the field of interest and coding.

For all the big firms, the skills you'll learn by following your stream will be applicable and act as an important factor in your selection process. So know your skills and capabilities in respective fields and then go for interviews.

How is IIITM Gwalior for an M.Tech in information security?

RT
Rima Tandon Posted On : July 23rd, 2021
Masters in Technology Information Security, Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management, Gwalior

It goes without saying, the idea of pursuing a degree in M.Tech in Information Security, that too, from an institute like IIITM Gwalior is a big deal. As it is very decent and you will not regret this decision. All the domains that concern the securityaspect would be covered under their curriculum. Some of my friends are from IIITM Gwalior, and here are some facts about the institution.

  • The faculty and the professors are well experienced and supportive.
  • As an M.Tech student, you would be prohibited from pick-up an internship in your second year due to an academic thesis that would be carried throughout a year.
  • The placement package will depend on your coding skills. The better your skills, the best the package you'll receive.
  • In order to implement all knowledge you have acquired theoretically, you must practice it thoroughly in the computer labs. They will be open 24×7.
  • You could use this accessibility to your advantage if your coding skills are not that great by putting most of your efforts and time into it.
  • Practice programming and sharpen your problem-solving skills so that you get a good package and get into an MNC as well.

Once you reach there the kind of environment you would be exposed to would be wholesome. As far as academics are concerned there will be no complaints about it.

Should I choose 5 years (I.T. + robotics) at IIIT Allahabad or 5 years CSE at IIEST Shibpur?

RR
Radhika Roy Posted On : March 24th, 2021
Studied B.Tech at IIEST Shibpur (2019)

There’s no doubts about the fact that 5 years at IIITA is a smarter option compared to anything else. This is because of the simple calculation that you are going to study the same curriculum for 4 years BTech for 3 years. That is all about the core of CS and IT. One core and two electives are a part of the fourth year in a 4-year BTech program, which hardly makes any difference. 

According to the experts, Robotics is the future of the IT industry and hence, finding yourself in the midst of such an academically enriching atmosphere which ensures a full time access to a premium robotics laboratory and esteemed faculty will certainly do good to you in more ways than you can ever imagine. That’s the kind of right exposure you are looking at.

Moreover, this department at IIIT Allahabad is being funded by MHRD, thus having a lot of helpful and positive influence from the big academic and administrative circles from all over the country. A number of international conferences sponsored by IEEE are held here regularly. A DST funded summer school of robotics is also a part of this institute. IIIT Allahabad is known to have multiple MOUs with various popular foreign universities and has extensive student exchange programs to give the best exposure of the industry and experts to its students.

Which is the better option for me? Mtech IT from IIIT Allahabad or Mtech CSE from IIT(ISM) Dhanbad?

AM
Ahana Majumdar Posted On : June 19th, 2021
M.Tech CSE - IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, 2020

The first thing you should consider is whether you want to pursue a Ph.D. or want a job after the completion of the course. I have a few friends at IIT ISM and I can tell you there are very few good faculties for CSE if you want guidance regarding Ph.D.

For any information regarding the faculty and research projects of IIIT Allahabad, you can visit both their faculty profile page and set a legitimate comparison with IIT (ISM).

Here are some other parameters of IIT (ISM), which you may find useful.

Placements:

The job prospects are increasing every year and the change is noticeable since its conversion to IIT. The institute also had a new director from IIT Kanpur. There also was a significant change in the placement cell, and the M.Tech placement stats have been kept under consideration, alongside B.Tech only after that.

The latest stats are as follows,

No. of Students Placed

31 out of 58

Average CTC

INR. 14 LPA

Highest CTC

INR 43.31 LPA

Top Recruiters

Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Ernst & Young

Moreover, the summer and 6-month internships have also been good over the past few years. For instance, the 2021 passing out batch has received several summer intern offers from companies like Goldman Sachs, Amazon, and Microsoft.

If you prepare for the coding session interviews from the beginning of the 1st year, then you are more likely to obtain internship opportunities. You can convert it to PPO before the placement season begins.

Other Parameters:

There is another thing you should consider. It is the number of students from either CSE or IT in B.Tech + M.Tech taking part in the placement season,

A total of 372 students participated in the placement drive from IIIT Allahabad while 203 participated from ISM Dhanbad.

However, there might not be a significant difference between companies that visit both institutes. Fewer participants in placements mean less competition.

So, I will suggest that you take all these factors into consideration and also do your own research. Consider other options too, if you have any.

I am planning to join IIIT-Allahabad for an MS in cyber laws and security. What are the pros and cons of that decision?

MK
Mohan Kumar Posted On : February 26th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad

There are several factors both supporting and opposing while joining IIIT Allahabad for MS in Cyberlaw and Security. There is no provision of admission in the Cyber Law and Security course, but you will be admitted as a master’s student. You will be given a chance to choose among several courses, for example, Robotics, Human-Computer Interaction, Software, etc. 

The points below discuss some of the important factors regarding the course and its outcomes.

  • Priority is given to students with higher CGPA in the 1st semester.
  • It is advised that you should choose IIIT if placements are your only preference. Research facilities and faculty are lacking for this course at IIIT-A.
  • There are famous professors like S.Venkat who are one of the most involved faculty but without a Ph.D. Another faculty, Dr. Maity is capable enough of guidance in research but there are rumors that he might leave the institute.
  • If you are dedicated enough then you can publish your own research paper in journals, even before completion of the degree. 
  • Most of the students are just up for placements and you will find a less number of interested students in research.
  • The placement is excellent for MS students in these subjects, even better than expected. There are students with very little programming knowledge but having a 15+ LPA job in hand. Even 20+ LPA offers are in good numbers.

Therefore, the main aspect that matters is the effort the candidate can devote. Overall, placements are amazing for MS students, but genuine research-interested candidates have a little scope in IIIT-A.

Is Concordia University good for Masters in Software Engineering?? If not what are the other recommendations????

AB
Almeda Brook Posted On : February 27th, 2023
M.S in Computer Science & Software Engineering, Concordia University, Montreal (Graduated 2019)

Yes, Concordia University is indeed good for Masters in Software Engineering and is ranked among the top 500 in many ranking sites. The curriculum comprises theoretical knowledge of software development through coding intensive courses. To land a good job, you should be skilled in programming language and also have proof of projects that you have worked on in the past.

An additional Work-Study Program enables students to work on-campus either part-time in the academic year or full-time in the summer season.

Curriculum: The curriculum touches on basic topics related to software engineerings like Advanced Software Architecture, Software Systems Requirements Specification, Software Project Management, and Software Comprehension and Maintenance.

Placements: Placements are a bit tough in this field as the employment rate is very low around 55%. Only skilled graduates are given preference while screening for job offers. As an international student, you can have an upper hand by taking advantage of online resources, learning Canadian culture, and being prepared for Canadian winter.
