How did the IIT Indore CSE department become so strong?
IIT Indore CSE department is becoming stronger in terms of placements only and its curriculum is still very lacking. The placements too can be much better especially for Graduate Schools in the US.
Many students have this preconceived notion that it’s much easier to get into a Masters program than Bachelor’s. Also students come for consultation quite late sometimes even in their final semester. Students should approach the faculty in their 3rd year so that the professors can help them during placements.
It’s true that the IIT Indore CSE department is improving every year and the credit goes to the hardworking students of the department.
What should I choose between IIT Patna, IIT Indore, and IIT Bhubaneswar for CSE branch?

What should I take, Metallurgy and Material Science Engineering at IIT Indore or Electrical Engineering at IIT Bhilai?
In general, it is better to choose the branch of your choice. Given below are a few trade-offs of the two choices given on the question which may help you in making the decision.
MEMS - IIT Indore:
- Administration: IIT Indore belongs to the 2008-09 batch of IITs. Although it can’t be compared with older IITs but it has made remarkable progress in this short span of time. The administration and departments are well-settled. Extra-curricular at the institute are also developing with time. In 4-5 years, the institute is expected to have a great future.
- Course: BTech MEMS at IIT Indore is fairly new and the duration of the existence of the course is the same as the B Tech Electrical course at IIT Bhilai. However, the MEMS department has been functioning for a while at IIT Indore. As a department it has experience. The faculties are great.
- Placements: MEMS has a lower placement rate as compared to other core branches of engineering. Metallurgy and Material Science is a niche field of study and the degree outcome is more research-oriented.
- Change of Branch: However, you can change your branch to Electrical or Mechanical from MEMES at IIT I, if you work hard in your 1st year. Changing to CS is always difficult because of the competition.
Electrical at IIT Bhilai:
- Facilities: IIT Bhilai was established back in 2016. It is only 4 years old. Electrical is a core Engineering discipline with better career prospects. But the disadvantage of this choice is the institute. You will have a few seniors in your branch and temporary faculties.
- Extracurricular: You will have good opportunities to start events, clubs, in the institute. On the other hand, the future at this institute is a bit uncertain.
- Campus Life: The institute also does not have a proper campus. You will not have a proper campus life for the next 4 years.
The table below shows a brief overview of the two institutes.

One of my friends had an option between Mechanical at IIT Indore and CS at a new IIT. He chose Mechanical at IIT Indore. Judging by his experience it is safe to say that he made the right decision at least for 2-3 more years.
The choice is up to you if you would rather trade off on the branch or on the institution. If you are confident you can secure a good future from the limited opportunities a new IIT can offer, you should go for it.
Which is better, civil at IIT Bhubaneswar or metallurgy at IIT Indore?
Both the branches are totally different from each other so first decide what you want to study for the next 4 years. Both the IITs are new and there is not much difference in them. Metallurgy is a sub-branch of mechanical and civil is a core branch. Civil engineering has better job opportunities if you compare it to metallurgy engineering.
The average package at IIT Indore for the year 2019 was 16.05 LPA and at IIT Bhubaneswar it was 11.44 LPA. If you want to get a job in the core-sector then it would be a bit difficult because both the branches have very low placements in the core sector. Students usually go for higher studies and others for non core placements. Civil engineering will give you a better opportunity if you want to go for higher studies.
The suggestion will be that you should focus on what branch you are more passionate about and choose that. Don’t go compare colleges, both are IITs therefore are equally good and offer similar facilities.
Which is better EE in IIT Bhubaneshwar or in IIT Indore?
Because Bhubaneswar is the capital of Orrisa and Indore is the most important and industrial capital of Madhya Pradesh, when it comes to geographical location, Indore has the upper hand with a slight advantage due to its weather.
Various ranking agencies have ranked IIT Bhubaneswar over the years. The NIRF 2022 ranked it 65th in the Overall Category and 36th in the Engineering Category in 2022 for its overall academic performance.
IIT Indore has been placed 16th in the NIRF Engineering Rankings 2022. IIT Indore has been ranked 31st in the overall category by the NIRF Rankings 2022, with an overall score of 55.13. THE World University Rankings 2022 place IIT Indore in the 401-500th range, and THE Young University Rankings 2022 place it in the 76th range.
Thus, IIT Indore is better in EE.
Which is better for metallurgical engineering, IIT Indore or IIT Bhubaneswar?
According to me, Metallurgical Engineering from IIT Indore is a better choice than opting for IIT Bhubaneswar. I am a student of IIT Indore and I can vouch for it.
