Which one should I choose: IIT Jodhpur, IIT Ropar CSE or IIT BHU Electrical?

SS
Samita Saha Posted On : April 21st, 2021
Btech Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (2022)

All of these are very good IITs and all of them will give the IIT tag and the exposure you need, but I would recommend you to go for IIT BHU electrical over IIT Jodhpur or Ropar CSE.

  • Electrical engineering is one of the best courses and you will also get to learn some aspects of coding from computer science courses. This is very important in today's world and can be useful if you wish to get into a computer or technology-related job in the future. 
  • Electrical and Electronics students are allowed to sit at all the campus interviews of every company including noncore companies too. This is a major advantage for electrical and electronics students to appear for more interviews and get their desired job. Moreover, in the present situation of India, most of the engineers prefer noncore jobs over core companies because they receive higher salaries and more recognition from them. 
  • In your fourth year, you will also have core job opportunities in the campus placement drive. According to recent placement highlights of IIT BHU, many students got placed with decent CTC at core companies. Students also performed quite well in competitive examinations like GATE. 
  • Among the given choices, IIT BHU is the oldest and have all the facilities required. 

IIT BHU Electrical is definitely the better choice because of the above reasons.

Which IIT should I choose: IIT Mumbai or IIT Ropar considering IIT Ropar has beaten IIT Mumbai in the top universities list but IIT Mumbai is much more famous than IIT Ropar?

GS
Gargi Sinha Posted On : April 20th, 2022
B.Tech, Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Ropar

Given a chance between IIT Bombay and IIT Ropar, you should definitely go for the former. It is currently ranked higher than IIT Ropar. NIRF 2021 has ranked it 3 for B.Tech. 

IIT Bombay is constantly ranked among the top engineering colleges in the nation. It is the favorite destination for almost all the JEE aspirants. IIT Bombay cutoff trends also indicate the same. You will need to score under 100 in JEE Advanced to get a seat at IIT Bombay.

As some of my friends studied at IIT Ropar, and also after reading some reviews online, I can say that the best professor is Dr. Dhiraj K. Mahajan. 

He values knowledge above marks and he takes his own open time exam for students to understand their potential.

He has guided 5-6 students personally for a year and with his efforts. He helped students in securing a job opportunity in Germany for international exposure. 

Apart from him, here are some of the other good professors - Dr. Narayanan C. Krishnan, Dr. Nitin Auluck, Dr. Balwinder Sodhi, Dr. Deepti Bathula, Dr. Apoorva Mudgal, Dr. Yashveer Singh, and Dr. M. Prabhakar.

BM
Bhushan Mishra Posted On : September 8th, 2021
IIT Ropar (2020)

If there is one IIT that has the best student-teacher ratio among the other IITs then it is IIT Ropar. 

Your placement is determined by the skills you have and the hard work you have done in your course. Students who have completed B.Tech in CSE have been offered packages of INR 18 LPA which is the highest for the students of the department and those who have completed their M.Tech in the same have been offered a package of INR 12 LPA, their highest. The percentage of placement was 84.96% in their last placement drive. The chief recruiters were Amazon, Google, Texas Instruments, Ericsson, etc.

You will find LAN and wifi available 24x7. It is like any other IIT. There will be professors you will like and some you will not. The coding culture is very developed in IIT Ropar. It may not have the benefit of location like some of its counterparts in other states do but it is close to Chandigarh.

What is the food like in IIT Ropar?

GR
Geetali Rao Posted On : September 10th, 2021
Studied B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Technology Ropar (2021)

The food served at IIT Ropar is just edible, nothing extraordinary. You might not like the food at the hostel of IIT Ropar except for several occasions. 

Every student in hostels tends to get bored of the mess food after a while. The menu of the mess is prepared to keep in mind the presence of people from different regions of India. You will be served both South Indian as well North Indian cuisines. The mess at IIT Ropar has an advantage, unlike the other IITs, it serves snacks to the students and the breakfast is also pretty great. 

Food will not be an actual issue most of the time as you would be indulged in your studies. You will be busy and would not even notice the taste of the food after some time.

How's the IIT Mandi and IIT Ropar for doing an MS in research in electrical engineering?

SG
Soutrik Gupta Posted On : March 16th, 2021
IIT Mandi

You will definitely get exposure in both colleges if you are looking forward to pursuing MS in Research in Electrical Engineering. But to be very honest, to pursue the program from these colleges, you must be well prepared to handle things on your own. Because here, you have to do almost everything by yourself. From setting advanced labs along with the professors to studying everything.

Here, you will get a limited number of peers. The faculties or professors themselves are new and in the phase of learning. Many of the researchers are satisfied with the culture at these institutes. The reason for this may be easy access to the mentors. At both these colleges, you will get both types of mentors. Some of them are very helpful and some can make your life hell.

Which one is better, IIT Ropar or Thapar University?

SS
Shivangi Sharma Posted On : August 11th, 2021
Studied at IIT Kharagpur (2019)

Both the institutes hold their own importance and cannot be compared as both are reputed colleges and the only thing that sets them apart is the term ‘IIT’. Having known some people studying in both these institutes, I can say that IIT Ropar is much better than Thapar.

  • IIT Ropar has been ranked in the top 3 among new IITs for the past 2 years.
  • IIT Ropar would give you a greater opportunity and a better peer group since the students studying here have secured a rank under 5000 in JEE Advanced.
  • The placement status of IIT Ropar is amazing. The percentage in the CSE department has been more than 90% with an average of around 16 LPA. 
  • Mechanical and electrical remain around 80-85% with an average of around 8-9 LPA in mechanical and 12 LPA in electrical.
  • Also, IIT Ropar has enormous research labs compared to any other new IIT. And also, it has deep collaboration with foreign universities.
  • The students going for internships, jobs, and studies in foreign universities are relatively high at IIT Ropar as compared to any other new IIT.
  • The faculty in IIT Ropar is qualified well enough. Most of them are done with their Ph.D. from top Universities across the world. 
Categories IIT Ropar
Course Fee 8.58 lakh
Highest CTC 22-25 LPA
Average CTC 12-16 LPA
Recruiting Companies Microsoft, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, etc.

IIT Ropar beats even the other IITs in terms of infrastructure, faculty, and placements. And hence, Private Universities are no parallel to IIT Ropar.

  • The new curriculum at IIT Ropar stands out as it has been designed by experts as per the International Standards. 
  • It provides you with a lot of freedom when it comes to choosing your specialization in different branches. 
  • For example, at IIT Ropar you can graduate in Mechanical engineering with a specialization in Manufacturing, or, you can have your BTech in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science.
