What is So Special About Nit And IIT Especially even the new ones ? WHAT IS THE SPECIALITY OF IIT & NIT .
IIT stands for Indian Institue of Technology. These are autonomous public institution. The top 5 IITs are- IIT Madras, IIT Kanpur, IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay and IIT Kharagpur.
NIT stands for National Institute of Technology. These are also autonomous engineering college. The top 5 NITs are- NIT Trichy, NIT Rourkela, NIT Karnataka, NIT Warangal and NIT Calicut.
Speciality-
IIT- IITs are the top most engineering college in India. Out of 23, eight of them are placed in top 10 rankings of MHRD-NIRF.
- Course- IITs offer different types of courses such as Aerospace engineering, Biological Sciences and engineering, Chemical engineering, Naval Architecture and Ocean engineering, Textile Technology, Agriculture and Food Enginnering and other common courses such as Civil engineering, computer science, Mechanical, Electrical engineering.
- Fees- fees for B.Tech courses ranges between 8 to 10 lakhs.
- Placements- Top domestic and international companies like Microsoft, Samsung, Google, Intel, Amazon, TATA, Accenture, ONGC etc. are the recruter. The average salary (domestic package) is between 8 to 20 lakhs and the highest International package 1 to 1.5 crore per annum.
NIT- There are in total 31 NITs. Most of these offer degree courses at UG and PG in various branches. As per the NIRF rankinh 2020, NIT Trichy is the top NIT of India.
- Course- Some of the popular courses offered by NITs are- Metallurgical engineering, Production enginnering, Chemical enginnering, Instrumentation and Control engineering, Biotechnology and other common courses.
- Fees- Tution fees are approx 62,500 per annum.
- Placements- Top domestic and international companies like TATA, Mahindra & Mahindra, Nokia, IBM, Amazon, Oracle etc visit NIT to recruit engineers. The average domestic salary package is 7.53 lakhs and the highest salary package is 36 to 40 lakhs per annum.
In general, both IIT and NIT are the top engineering instutues of India. But by stats, IIT is slightly better than NIT in cases of faculties, placements, research facility. But comparatively fees of NITs are cheaper than IITs.
Dear aspirant,
- Firstly,IIT and NIT provide a large number of opportunities for each and every person.
- The top companies setup and India and abroad visit the campuses for placements.
- The last is that you get the publicized tag of IITian or NITian.
But according to me it does not matter from which university you belong,ultimately the thing that matters is skills that one has acquired during the course and how you make use of it.
Good luck!
