Do CSE students really need not study physics, chemistry, and biology as students of IIIT Lucknow keep saying?

AS
Ayushi Sinha Posted On : September 15th, 2022
B.Tech in Information Technology, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow

To understand the basic of CSE, you need to study science subjects such as Physics, Mathematics, etc. You need basic understanding of these subjects, to handle tough engineering concepts. These subjects also help build logical and conceptual thinking. If you don’t have a basic understanding of these subjects, you will learn to code blindly. This isn’t beneficial in long run. Top technological institutes like IIIT Hyderabad have compulsory science subjects.

Can I do a BTech in computer science from IGNOU?

MS
Munta Shabir Posted On : November 3rd, 2022
B.Tech from APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University

In this era, if you want to engage in computer science, you don't need a degree. Unfortunately, the Indian system values degrees as well as relevant skills. All you need is a good computer, an internet connection, and a desire to learn. If you cannot afford four years or a large tuition fee for engineering, consider taking some related courses such as mathematics, statistics, or commerce.

You can learn skills on your own using free and paid online platforms, complete projects related to your skill set, and you'll be employable, possibly better than an engineering graduate.

Practicals (Lab sessions) are regarded as the backbone of engineering courses in other branches (though our colleges give much more importance to theory). 

Many prestigious institutes outside of India are focusing on "outcome-based education." That is, simply having the certificate and having no idea what you did in college, or simply studying for the sake of passing the exam, isn't a big deal. You must be an authority in your field.

What should be the preference order of IIIT Lucknow, IIIT Jabalpur and IIIT Gwalior for CS?

GK
Gagan Kapoor Posted On : March 12th, 2021
B.Tech ECE, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Jabalpur

Among the above three institutes, IIIT Gwalior is the best choice, considering the fact that it is the oldest IIIT and offers excellent placement and academic facilities. The preference order of choice among the institutes is given below.

IIIT Gwalior > IIIT Jabalpur > IIIT Lucknow

The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the three institutes.

Particulars

IIIT Gwalior

IIIT Jabalpur

IIIT Lucknow

Total Fees (B.Tech)

Rs. 5.4 Lakhs

Rs. 5.29 Lakhs

Rs. 9.81 Lakhs

Highest Package offered

Rs. 42 LPA

Rs. 23 LPA

Rs. 43 LPA

JEE Main cut-off

8781

15395

14268

Key Highlights:

  • The cut-off for admission to IIIT Gwalior is a validation of the fact that it is the best choice. It has its infrastructure spread across a 100-acre campus, being the oldest IIIT and maintaining its standard of placement and academics.
  • Jabalpur has a 260-acre campus. In terms of placement and infrastructure, it comes just after IIIT Gwalior. But in terms of research, IIIT Jabalpur is ahead of the other two.
  • IIIT Lucknow has a 50-acre campus and is mostly under construction, and is just 2 batches old. It is growing with time and needs to gain fame eventually. IIIT Lucknow has good placement, even in the first pass-out batch. It would be an excellent choice in the future if the records in placement are retained.

Therefore, the above order is the choice of preference a candidate will find relevant. No candidate should be misguided just by recent placement records and statistics.

How is Vignan University for computer science?

TM
Tara Mathur Posted On : September 9th, 2021
Studied at Vignan University (2017)

Hearing about Vignan University from one of my friends. I can say that his overall experience there was not that good. Here are some of the reasons why:

  • The students aren’t treated well and caste discrimination is everywhere around the campus. 
  • Many students have witnessed that the chairman of the college himself is into such practices. 
  • There are strict rules that have to be followed by the students. 
  • If the students fail to attend the class during the study hours, their attendance will be cut without any prior notice. 
  • No extracurricular activities take place in the college.
  • Sometimes students get indulged in bad habits such as gamblings. 
  • The college will keep on charging high amounts in the form of fees and they charge different amounts from different students. 
  • The placement opportunities are also not good.

Thus, it is advised that don’t choose this college as it will only waste your valuable time and money. Keep looking at other colleges which are better than Vignan University.

Which is better, IIIT Lucknow for CSE or NIT Patna for ECE?

AS
Anuj Singh Posted On : June 10th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, National Institutes of Technology (2020)

I have friends studying at both IIIT Lucknow and NIT Patna, and according to their first-hand experience, IIIT Lucknow is the better choice here. Here’s what you need to know.

  • Curriculum: IIIT Lucknow has a great curriculumin terms of syllabus, classes, and coding culture. The competitive environment drives you to excel in every field.
  • Facilities: You will get high-tech facilities in IIIT Lucknow designed for engineering and coding. Events like Hackathons and other tech fests are equivalent to IIIT Allahabad.
  • Placements: My friend who completed his B.Tech from IIIT Lucknow experienced that your placement highly depends on how much you use online videos, courses to excel in your respective branch. Overall you need to be active and focus on improving your skills which might help you grab decent job packages. Moreover, the highest CTC recorded to 43 LPA while the average CTC is 18.4 LPA.

Check out some of the reasons why you shouldn’t choose NIT Patna.

  • Poor infrastructure: Unfortunately, the institute is not making much effort to improve facilities, organizing tech events. This is because they are currently focusing on the construction of the new campus of NIT Patna at Bihta near IIT Patna which is bound to be completed by 2024.
  • Poor accommodation: You will have to adjust to double or triple seater rooms because you won’t get a single-seater room in all of your 4 years. Also, the PG options are not good in the surrounding area.
  • Poor mess food: Just like the infrastructure, the Hostel Mess Committee is too reluctant to improve food quality in spite of knowing everything. Also, you won’t get any good quality restaurants nearby or any online food ordered after 10 pm.
  • Outdated curriculum: Institute is still following the old curriculum and has outdated labs. Even the Classrooms are too outdated with broken benches and no Projectors are used to teach.
  • Lack of extracurricular: There is a lack of proper clubs, sports facilities, tech-fests, and coding culture.

Overall, ECE at NIT Patna is not a good option. Go for CSE IIIT Lucknow any day for a great curriculum, great facilities, great location, and great placements. Also, the CSE branch gets you more chances of better placements in most colleges in India.
