Some of the companies that visit MAIT are Accenture, ZS Associates, LIBSYS, Wipro, Infosys, Nagarro, Sapient, TCS, Deloitte, Hughes Systique, HSBC, Cognizant, Tata Power DDL, Amazon, etc.
The average CTC offered to the students is 3.5 lakhs.
MSIT:
80-90% of students got placed from ECE at MSIT in the 2020 placement even with the COVID-19 situation.
The average package is 3-4 LPA, the highest is 8 LPA and the lowest is 3 LPA.
The major recruiters are Infosys, TCS, Wingify, Accenture and Comviva Mahindra.

If you want to live a joyful life, it takes a lot of effort to do it here. If you want to research and think college would support you, then that won’t happen. You won’t get any sort of support from the college. But Symbiosis will give you enough industrial exposure.
If you are interested in Computer Science and want to pursue MS/Ph.D. from universities abroad, after graduation, IIITD CSD is the best option for you. IIITD CSD placements are also pretty good. During the 2021 placement drive, the average CTC offered was INR 16.56 LPA.
If you find Electrical Engineering or Instrumentation and Control Engineering interesting and want to go for GATE/PSU/MTech, then choose the respective streams at DTU/NSIT. These branches aren’t usually open for most IT and coding-based jobs. For an MBA or a non-tech, career path, DTU or NSIT will be better as well.
There is very little chance to get your branch upgraded to any department. Even if you manage to score more than 80% then also you will not be able to get a seat in your desired branch as they might show there is no vacancy in that branch.
To get your branch upgraded from EEE you either need to have very good connections in GGSIPU or you need to lend some extra money to the college to upgrade your branch. Without which you won't have any chances to upgrade even if your score is more than 80% marks in the first semester.

MAIT is better than NIT Manipur. MAIT, being situated in Delhi, provides more placements opportunities regularly along with best coaching centres for higher education.
NIT Manipur being a low ranked NIT, will not offer the suitable placements for its students apart from the NIT stamp, which is helpful in future abroad studies. So MAIT is an appropriate choice than NIT Manipur
If you are genuinely interested in ECE then you should opt for MAIT. Although from the viewpoint of future prospects, NIT ICE is far better than MAIT ECE.

No, it isn’t difficult as such to switch branches after the first year, as most of us are unaware of the syllabus and whether it is going to suit our caliber and interest at the same time. Owing to this many opt out of their initially chosen branch.
Make sure where your interests lie and look for scopes in the future. You can easily check about the vacant seats from your college department, consult your principal or administration as well for the best advice and help.
