Should I prefer Shiv Nadar Univ. over vit chennai/bits/sastra for CSE?
Hey
I can vouch for how much better vit,bits or sastra is as compared to shiv nadar university.Vit chennai is extremely good for cse. It is worth joining CSE branch at VIT Chennai. The teachers in the CSE branch are quite average apart from a few who are exceptionally good. Due to the structure of the curriculum, the teacher in class will only introduce to the topic, it is up to you to the degree you wish to learn it. Most of the exam question can be solved through the material in the PPTs that are distributed during the lectures. The SCSE or CSE department currently has a huge focus on carrying out research in the various disciplines of computer science. You could take to a faculty to work under him/her to join their research. The CSE department labs are well equipped with the necessary hardware and software. If you were to join VIT please buy a laptop with decent specification ( those costing around 50–60k) as you will need them immensely in order to do your lab exercise, projects, and digital assignment. All submission are usually made on the intranet.
The city of Chennai will also open doors for you to a large number of opportunities in order to compete in various competition and attend conferences and developer circle meetings of multiple tech giants. You would also have an easy to commute to other parts of the country in comparison to the other campuses.
The campus also has many sports and clubs that you can be a part. The main advantage of the campus is its smaller batch size as compared to the Vellore campus and thus you get to know a lot of your batch mates.
The placement is jointly and commonly held for all campus. As for Batch 2019 more than 600 companies visited the campus for placement.The average placement for the CSE Chennai campus branch was around 7 lakhs.
