What would be a better choice in terms of placements: SRM Kattankulathur (IT) or NIT Manipur/Mizoram/Sikkim (CS)?
I completed my BTech CSE from NIT Manipur in 2021. NITs consistently perform well in terms of placements. NITs fees are much lower compared to SRMIST and other private engineering colleges.
For your convenience, I have compiled the 2023 placement figures of all these colleges:
| Parameters | NIT Manipur | *NIT Mizoram | NIT Sikkim | SRMIST Chennai (2024 Placements ongoing) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Highest/Average Package | Highest: INR 47 LPA Average: INR 9.7 LPA (2022 placements) |
- | Average: INR 8.50 LPA | Highest: 57 LPA (2023) Average: 6.88 LPA |
| Total Offers | 147 | - | - | 9,011 (2023) |
| No. of Companies Visited | 37 | 30 | - | 1,311 (2023) |
| Top Recruiters | Amazon, Discovery, EDFORA, INCREFF, Veritas, Trellix, among others. | Virtusa, Optum-UGH, KEC International Ltd, C-DOT, Intellipaat, etc. | Bosch, Capgemini, CGI, TCS, Deloitte, Wipro, Infosys, Aarti Industries Limited, etc. | Cognizant, TCS, Wipro, Infosys, ICICI Bank, IBM, Axis Bank, Berger, etc. |
*The 2023 placement figures might have increased for NIT Mizoram.
NIT Manipur has the best placement figures among the three NITs. As per NIRF 2023 Engineering Ranking, NIT Manipur ranks 95th, while NIT Sikkim ranks in the 151-200 bracket.
NITs are “Institutes of National Importance''. NITs are government colleges. They come next in line to IITs for their high brand value. Though SRM Chennai is a well-known college, it does not carry the same reputation as the IITs and NITs. Due to these factors, I had decided to pursue BTech CSE from NIT Manipur.
