Which department is better in NIT Trichy, Civil Engineering or Chemical Engineering?

Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

It’s difficult to compare these branches or any other branches of engineering until and unless you specify the parameters of comparison. Scope, placements, future opportunities, etc., play an important role in differentiating the branches. Also, you should choose based on your interest and future goal while opting for a branch rather than on such parameters.

Now, if you do not have any interest in any particular branch and like most of the students out there, are doing it for the B.Tech tag, you can opt for any of the branches. Both the branches at NIT Trichy are at par. You will get decent placement opportunities from both the branch, provided you maintain decent CGPA. According to the recent placement highlights, the average CTC offered by NIT Trichy is 6 LPA.

MS
Mahima Singhal Posted On : July 28th, 2021
B.Tech Chemical Engineering, Institute Of Technology, Nirma University (2021)

B.Tech is the flagship course of all the courses offered to undergraduate students. The placements for this course are as good as those of any NIT or IIT. Big names such as Morgan Stanley and another tech, financial, and management companies visit the campus to offer placements to its students.

Looking at the market’s current scenario, most of the students at Nirma University choose to go for pursuing their Masters in Business Studies. They even end up going abroad for pursuing core subjects while some even join their family business. The placements at Nirma University do not manage to generate that sort of hype. This is seen most often during the placements for the students of the department of civil engineering.

Prepare yourself for the future during the time you are pursuing your degree. The college prepares you for facing the world. Hone your skills and you will get huge positive responses from potential recruiters during your placements.

The highest recorded package offered to the students of Nirma University during placement is INR 46.27 LPA. The top recruiters are Infosys, HDFC, Reliance, etc.

Is civil engineering at NIT, Kurukshetra better than CSE (computer science and engineering) at PEC University of Technology?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

It's difficult to choose one between NIT Kurukshetra Civil and OEC Chandigarh CSE because both branches are different with diverse scopes and opportunities. You will have to consider a lot of parameters while choosing one of these

Personally I will suggest you opt for the CS branch unless you have any specific inclination towards civil engineering or any other branch. The excellent placements of this branch are not the only reason I am suggesting you go for it. The courses taught are rather easy and can be covered through self-study which may not be possible for Civil. 

You are aware of the academic situation of most engineering colleges these days. Most professors have no interest in teaching. I believe that if you can get CS in PEC you can also get CS in NIT Kurukshetra. It has a better alumni network so it's a better option than PEC. Civil students will have options like research internships, masters or Ph.D. later, get into IES, etc.

Here is a comparison of a few statistics that might help you further make a well-informed decision.

Parameters

NIT Kurukshetra

PEC

Fees

1.6 Lakhs (BTech first year)

2.07 Lakhs (BTech first year)

In the end, your choice of college won’t matter much but how you spent your 4 years will.

Should I prefer civil engineering in IIT Hyderabad or CSE in RVCE?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : May 9th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

My suggestion would be to opt for IIT Hyderabad Civil Engineering and prepare for a branch change. 

IITs cannot be compared to any private college other than BITS. Even if you are unable to change your branch, don’t feel disheartened as the IIT Brand name is more than enough. 

I know many people who were part of the Chemical, Biotech, and Civil Engineering branches of IIT and are earning more than 12 LPA currently. Irrespective of the branch you belong to, IITs offer an excellent coding culture making you proficient in the same. The quality of peer groups you will be interacting with is also better at IITs than at private colleges like RVCE. 

All in all, IIT as a brand is better than RVCE and other private colleges except BITS.

Should I take cse at ISM Dhanbad or civil at IIT Hyderabad?

I would never recommend you to go for any core branch at new IITs. With the new IIT tag, ISM Dhanbad is a far better option as it was established in 1926 and enjoys global recognition in contrast to IIT Hyderabad, which is still under development. Both the colleges are poles apart in terms of infrastructure, facilities, etc.
