GCET organizes a number of conferences affiliated by IEEE apart from bootcamps to provide live training experience and boost the skillset of the students. Key highlights of the placement statistics for the information technology stream (IT) are:
AIIE is a relatively new college yet to make a mark in the industry but has made a lot of efforts to secure a bright future for the aspiring engineers. Students pursuing Information and Communication Technology (ICT) get access to industry training, experiential learning with interactive sessions by industry experts due to the reach of Adani group in the corporate. Few salient features about the placement statistics are:
Both Metallurgy at NIT Jamshedpur and IT at Jadavpur University seem to be good options so the choice really depends on your preferences. I hope you aren't someone who is obsessed with tags because, in the long run, the tag of your college does not even matter. Moreover, both NIT Jamshedpur and Jadavpur University have a considerably good reputation in the industry. However, it's true that Nit Jamshedpur metallurgy placements are slightly better than JU metallurgy placements because of their favorable location. JU IT placements are decent too with many 20_ LPA offers. Here is why I will suggest you go for JU IT instead of NIT Jamshedpur Metallurgy
Additionally, consider the following table before making the final choice.

Admission Criteria:
The admission criteria for both Electronics and Communication Engineering as well as Information Technology is the same. A student needs to have a 75% score in 10+2 with science as the mainstream and should have Mathematics and Physics as compulsory subjects.
Along with this students are required to take the JEE Main exam which serves as the entrance exam for this college. The usual cut off for MNNIT Allahabad in JEE Main ranges from 22,796 to 21,752.
In 2019, the cut off for JEE Main round of Electronics and Communication Engineering was between the range of 4615-6752 (for other states) and 3600-7128 (for home states). Whereas the cut off for Information Technology was 3133-4986 (for other states) and 4057-5697( for home states).

Whereas Information Technology had a placement percentage of 95.56% and the Maximum CTC of INR 36 LPA.
Both ECE and IT courses at MNNIT Allahabad do have pro factors like a good placement percentage, high expected salary post-graduation, on-campus housing facilities, etc. But in the end, while selecting between these courses a student needs to primarily consider their own interest and feasibility.
NIT Surathkal and NIT Warangal are both top NITs.
IT and CSE are both related to tech and computers. Both these branches offer equal opportunities. Also, the curriculum is the same for both. NITW is placed 21st in the 2023 NIRF engineering rankings. On the other hand, NITK is placed 12th.
The placements offered at both these colleges are pretty good. During 2023 placements at NITW, B.Tech CSE students recorded 99.4% placement. The average package stood at INR 30.5 LPA, and the highest package stood at INR 88 LPA for B.Tech CSE. As for NITK, last year the IT department achieved the highest package of INR 45 LPA.
Thus, both options are equally good. So you can go for either IT at NITK or CSE at NITW.
Pursuing CSE from any Tier-1 college will be very beneficial for your career as it’s one of the most coveted branches today.
NIT Jalandhar all three branches CSE, IT, and ECE are the top ones with excellent placements. These branches offer excellent job opportunities irrespective of the fact that you know how to code or not. Students of these branches are placed in companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Samsung, Flipkart, Paytm, and even Google. Additionally, a 6-month internship program in the 8th semester is offered wherein you can intern in any company (off-campus or on-campus) and earn while being a student.
So, you can put your worries to rest if you are only concerned about placements.
IIT Delhi is the best option because it is the fastest-growing institute and is efficient at offering quality education to students. They are implausible on the tech side, so if you are passionate about becoming a techie, opt for IIT Delhi. They also ensure good campus life, well-qualified faculties, and infrastructure facilities for the students
So, IIT Delhi would be a better pick, especially for the CSE or ECE branch.
Both IIT Mandi and IIIT Allahabad are reputable institutions with strong programs in their respective fields. IIT Mandi offers an Electrical Engineering program, while IT Allahabad offers an Information Technology program. If you are interested in pursuing a career in electrical engineering, then IT Mandi would be the better choice. On the other hand, if you are more interested in information technology and computer science, then IT Allahabad would be the better choice. It is important to note that both programs are challenging and will require a significant amount of hard work and dedication. I recommend researching both institutions and their programs thoroughly before making a decision and considering your own interests and career goals.
I am the right person to answer your question because my brother is a student of IIIT Allahabad and is pursuing an IT dual degree while my elder setter is pursuing an EE at IIT Mandi. I can give you a better insight into the combined scenario as I have knowledge of both sides.
IIT Mandi Electrical
IIIT Allahabad IT
Location-wise, both give an edge to each other with IIITAhmadabad at a slight advantage. Overall, if you prefer a more dynamic campus life, IIT Mandi is for you but if you are just fixated on placements and academics, IIIT Allahabad is a better choice.
Both IIT Guwahati for Biotech and MNNIT Allahabad for IT are extremely different courses in terms of the scope they offer.
Go for Biotechnology only if you are genuinely interested in it because core placements are miserable and there is a dearth of job opportunities. Most students get placed in Analytics and other non-core sectors and only a few manage to secure a core job. So go for this only if you want to pursue higher studies.
MNNIT Allahabad’s IT program offers excellent job opportunities but lacks in terms of research and exposure. The coding culture is very good here but the academics is poor. The placement scenario is great second only to CS placements. If you aren’t sure enough consider the following points before making the final choice
Concludingly, if you have a specific preference for research and higher education, go for IIT Guwahati else MNNIT Allahabad is the best option for you.
