LBSIM Delhi and SIBM Bangalore, both are good management colleges in India. If you want to pursue a career in finance then LBSIM would be a better choice as the PGDM (Finance) course offered by the institute is considered best in the country.

Given below is a brief comparison between the two institutes.

Both the institute offers equally good facilities, infrastructure, and similar industry exposure. Being located in Delhi, LBSIM has connections to companies across various business domains. Whereas, in Bangalore, there are more IT companies.

Both IIT BHU and IIT Hyderabad are new IITs. However, IIT BHU is an old institute and later on converted to IIT while IITH is newly constructed. Though newly constructed, the growth of IITH has been pretty impressively. According to NIRF ranking, IITH (rank - 7) is far ahead of IIT BHU (rank - 14) which proves that IITH has better infrastructure, faculties, research facilities, outreach, and location. 

As of 2019, the opening and closing rank of IITH for Electrical is 808-1868 while in IIT BHU the closing rank was 2054. The IITH has the combined electrical and electronics engineering course which provides students with the knowledge of both the areas as the industry demands and provides opportunities in various areas. In contrast, IIT BHU has a separate electrical engineering course that is dedicated to specific electrical subjects.

Both the IITs hold good placement records. In 2019 a total of 88 students were placed from EE in IIT BHU. The offers were ranged between 10 LPA to 58.21 LPA. Whereas, the placement statistics for the EE department in IITH suggest there was 73.17% placement with a median salary of 15.23 LPA.

IITH has signed MoUs with renowned Japanese colleges, so there is a huge trend of going to further studies in Japan. Unlike IITH, IIT BHU, being an old college, has a strong alumni network, and there are many alumni at high positions in the organization. Both these institutions have their perks for a EE degree, so choose according to your convenience.
 

Without a doubt, BIET goes far beyond Dr. AITH Kanpur. The teaching staff as well as the hardworking students at any government college push and inspire us a great deal, keeping us motivated. The one thing positive about AITH Kanpur is its location, you will get nearby GATE coaching classes, which are very accessible.

Moreover, a point here to be noted is the group of students who enter BIET. It is a large dedicated and passionate group who believe only in studying and working hard, making it a very enriching and a motivating experience overall.

Some of the reasons why choosing BIET Jhansi is a good idea is because of its hostel and accommodation facilities. For the last two years students are eligible for a single room without sharing; mess food is also quite famous at BIET. There is a lot of scope to develop, nurture and improve your interpersonal and communication skills. The seniors here are super helpful and are forever looking to offer any support possible and at any time.

The population of Jhansi is far less and therefore it implies that there is lesser pollution. The faculty here is outstanding and very helpful to all the students. You may take help from any faculty member or seniors whenever you are stuck, be it in academics or cultural events, and they would be more than glad to offer you the much needed and appropriate guidance.

Before looking into civil engineering in specific within these colleges, Amity is definitely much more renowned than Acharya Institute of Technology (AIT), Bangalore. Considering the NIRF ranking of Amity over past years, which always managed to stay around 30, it is one of the top private institutes in India. On the other hand, Acharya is known to be a good college in Bangalore city.

Fee Structure:

How good the college might be one will always take the fee amount into consideration before selecting the college.

The average annual fee in Amity is around INR 3.11 Lakhs and that of Acharya is also around INR 3 Lakhs. But the first year fee in Acharya is around 6 lakhs while for the rest of the years being around INR 1.8 Lakhs. The overall amount remains nearly the same, it’s about affordability here.

Placements:

Getting placed in a core company from campus is rare sight unless you’re in the premier institutes. It’s not the case with Amity. There are around 11 companies specifically recruiting civil engineering graduates.

• While there are some civil department-specific placements in AIT, students mostly get placed in IT and Software companies.

• The Average package at AIT is around 7 LPA, it’s around 4.5 LPA at Amity, considering 1700 placed students and 525 recruiters for that year, and those are some good placement stats.

• Few core companies that recruit from Amity are Eleation, ZTE, Gemalto, etc.

Amity also has a Departmental Research cell concentrating on various aspects of civil engineering and its recent advances.

So, if one is choosing between AIT and Amity, it’s a clear choice that going with Amity would result in better opportunities and Core company placements. The presence of a research cell facility is always a welcome addition for students looking for higher studies after B. Tech.
