Which is better, IIT Delhi (chemical) or BITS Pilani (CSE)?

A
Admin Posted On : July 9th, 2024

I am a B.Tech Chemical Engineering student at IIT Delhi. According to me, these are the main factors you should consider while making up your mind:

  • Demand: CSE is more in-demand than chemical engineering.
  • Brand: The “IIT” tag holds more brand value than the “BITS” tag. The “IIT” tag will be more advantageous if you want to apply to foreign universities for higher education later on.
  • Fees: IIT Delhi is an affordable choice, whereas, BITS Pilani has high fees for its engineering programs. Additionally, IIT Delhi has better placements, which places it at a better position in terms of ROI.

Here is a comparison between IIT Delhi Chemical and BITS Pilani CSE:

Parameters

IIT Delhi Chemical

BITS Pilani CSE

Course Fee

INR 99,650 (for sem-1)*

INR 3.32 lakh (for sem-1)

Highest Package (2023: Overall)

INR 2.5 CPA 

INR 60. 75 LPA

Average Package (2023: Overall)

INR 17.60 LPA

INR 30.37 LPA

CTC Range (for 2023)

-

(IT branches) INR 11 - 38 LPA

Campus Recruiters

Microsoft, CISCO, Accenture, Brain & company, Jaguar Land Rover India Limited

EY, HSBC,KPMC, HCL,IBM, TCS

*This is the fee-structure for General/OBC students with family income>5 LPA. 

 

Even though CSE is a highly sought after branch in the current market, I would suggest you opt for Chemical Engineering at IIT Delhi. IIT Delhi will offer a better ROI, and its brand name will be of immense benefit if you wish to pursue higher studies in India and abroad after graduation.

 

You can do some research on the career and research opportunities after Chemical Engineering, and see if this branch aligns with your future goals.

How is chemical engineering at Amrita?

IR
Indrani Raha Posted On : June 22nd, 2021
B.Tech Chemical Engineering & Materials Science and Engineering, Amrita University (2019)

One of my cousins studied at Amrita. According to him, chemical engineering at Amrita is superior and advanced in comparison with other colleges.

  • The faculty is highly knowledgeable with a doctorate degree. Classes are conducted in the most interesting and pleasant way that’ll work on enhancing the skills of students.
  • Although the resources are made available to the students based on their field of interest, it is on them to drill into all of it.
  • The better they have an understanding of the provided resources the more developed their skills are.
  • Moreover, the department encourages the students to take part in various projects that help them in obtaining a spot in internship and training programs.

However, the students do not get placements in core companies on their completion of UG course. Acquiring a job after higher studies would be less of a hassle. UG here would be a great choice.

What is it like to do chemical science and technology at IIT-Guwahati?

RD
Rithi Dasgupta Posted On : May 4th, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Guwahati (IIITG)

Chemical Science and Technology is a great choice for those who have a genuine interest in the subject of Chemistry. 

  • It comprises inorganic, organic, and other aspects.
  • It covers aspects of drug design, medicinal chemistry, material science, environmental science, and even molecular biology. 
  • It is a research-oriented discipline
  • It's a contemporary of Engineering Physics
  • Its syllabus covers topics like nano-chemistry and nano-technology which is the next big thing in the engineering sector 

Prospects

  • The prospects of CST are not at or with that of Chemical Engineering unless you are going to opt for non-core jobs.

Chemical Engineering, on the other hand, is a blend of a profusion of physical chemistry along with a mess of physics, math, and many other things. It entails the processes that help maximize efficiency, increase profit, and focus on the best possible way for the production of any product in any industry.

Prospects

  • The prospects of Chemical Engineering are better than CST and its students receive better packages.

Ultimately, it’s all about if you are going for core or non-core jobs. Either way, Chemical Engineering is a better option than CST unless you have a serious inclination toward Chemistry.

Which is better, chemical at IIT Kharagpur or CS at IIT Mandi?

A
Admin Posted On : June 18th, 2024

Choosing Chemical Engineering at IIT Kharagpur is a better option as compared to CS at IIT Mandi. IIT KGP is a much older institution with a rich legacy and a stronger alumni network. Other than that, Chemical Engineering at IIT Kharagpur has an active research culture. 

On the other hand, IIT Mandi may not be the best option because of its recent establishment. Although the IIT Mandi placements seem promising, they are nowhere near IIT KGP placements.

Here is a general comparison of the 2 institutes based on several factors-

Particulars IIT Mandi IIT KGP
B.Tech Fees 2.85 Lakhs (1st Year Fees) 2.24 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)
NIRF Ranking 2023 (Engineering) 73 6
Highest CTC (2023) INR 60 LPA INR 2.68 CPA
Average CTC (2023) INR 21.50 LPA INR 50 LPA
Top Recruiters Flipkart, 1mg, Microsoft, Uber, Amazon Microsoft, Google, EXL Services

Based on these factors, I would suggest you choose Chemical Engineering at IIT KGP over CS at IIT Mandi.

What should I choose, VJTI for Computer Science or BITS Goa for Chemical?

A
Admin Posted On : May 13th, 2024

My friend also faced the dilemma of choosing between VJTI and BITS Goa. He ended up choosing VJTI because of the following reasons. 

  • VJTI offers a renowned CS curriculum with a strong focus on practical learning. 
  • BITS Goa may have a higher average salary during placement, but placements for CS at VJTI are also pretty solid. A total of 401 BTech students have been placed till now in 2024. The highest package was secured by a BTech Computer Science student which stood at INR 57 LPA with the average package being INR 20 LPA. 
  • VJTI has strong industry connections and easily offers students research and internship opportunities in top firms. 
  • BITS Goa also offer most of such programs in dual degree format which may be uncomfortable for some students. 
  • Mumbai being a tech hub can also be beneficial as VJTI CS students are to an ecosystem of networking opportunities and jobs.
