Which is better, IT at NIT Raipur or ECE at IIITDM Kanchipuram?
One of my friends from high school used to be a student of IIITDM Kanchipuram and in his opinion, ECE at that institute has a far better system of progressing with the course than the NIT system.
IIITDM Kanchipuram also boasts of having a superior faculty. IT has also been derived from the ECE. Both hardware and software are involved in ECE. So, if you are more inclined towards Physics and Maths, go for ECE.
| Categories | IT at NIT Raipur | ECE at IIITDM Kanchipuram |
| Course Fee | 5.40 lakh | 6.55 lakh |
| Highest CTC | 16 LPA | 20 LPA |
| Average CTC | 8 LPA | 12 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Barclays, Adobe, Oracle, HCL, etc. | Wipro, UBM, TCS, Value Service, etc. |
Thus it is suggested that you go for ECE at IIITDM Kanchipuram than IT at NIT Raipur. ECE also has better scope and opportunities than IT. Graduating with ECE you can sit for placements of both core sectors and corporate sectors.

Which is better given I am more interested in programming, a CSE at IIIT Guwahati, an ECE at NIT Agartala, or an ME at NIT Silchar?
The short answer is CSE at IIIT Guwahati. If you are primarily interested in programming and coding culture, CSE at IIIT Guwahati is the best choice. However, if you are strongly passionate about any branch then college must not make a huge difference.
I have friends studying in all of these colleges and honestly, they do differ according to their ranking and branch. But if you are keen on CSE then such factors become secondary.
Nevertheless, here are some things you must know before choosing.
- ME at NIT Silchar is also a great option if mechanical engineering is your passion. It has a better ranking among all these options.
- IIIT Guwahati has a great potential of growing to significant heights in the next few years. That’s why CSE at IIIT Guwahati is the best bet for now if you are keen on programming.
- ECE at NIT Agartala cannot surpass any of the above options because neither the ranking is better nor the branch.

How is the B.Tech biotechnology branch at Manipal University main campus?
Biotechnology is a budding branch that is good enough to get you working in the industry instead of the research field. The curriculum deals with industrial purposes like bioprocess engineering, design of industrial equipment,bio-reaction engineering, etc.
Despite the decent subject and scope, pursuing B.Tech biotechnology from Manipal University's main campus is not a wise thing to do. Here’s why
- My cousin has just completed his B.Tech in Biotechnology from Manipal University's main campus.
- According to his experience, the academics are great, the faculty is helpful, and the facilities are up to the mark.
- But the major downfall is that the placement scenario is not good.
- You have to accept the fact that you won’t get campus placement if you opt for this branch in Manipal University's main campus.
- However, the branch has numerous opportunities once you step out of the campus, and you can grab various outside campus placement opportunities.
All in all, Manipal University's main campus provides good academics and learning experiences for the biotechnology branch. If you are interested in research, you can do a minor specialization in genetic engineering and pharmacy.
