To draw a comparison between CS at NIT Jalandhar and EE at MNIT Jaipur, let’s discuss the various factors below:

1. Infrastructure: The infrastructure of MNIT is slightly better than that of NIT Jalandhar. MNITs campus has the largest lecture theater complex in the whole of Asia. NIT's campus is away from the main city but it is also beautiful with a soothing ambiance.

2. Placement: Because of its location NIT Jalandhar faces a few drawbacks in the case of placements.

The conclusion is as follows:

• If you prefer a future in the private sector, NIT is better for you. But if you are interested in Electrical MNIT is a good option.

• If you are a coding freak, then CS at NIT Jalandhar is a better option.

• If you want a job in Civil Services, then EE at MNIT is better than CSE at NIT Jalandhar.

• If you want a better college and campus life then MNIT is a better option.

So CS at any college is a good choice but most importantly what matters is what you want to pursue actually.

Both these institutes carry the NIT tag, so they have equal brand value. I don’t know much about the ground reality at MNNIT. However, ranking wise, MNIT is surely ahead of it.

MNIT Jaipur offers one of the best faculties and topnotch placements. Besides that, the college has improved its infrastructure manifold. Here are some highlights on the infrastructural facilities at MNIT-

1. The Materials Research Centre (MRC) contains the best machinery and equipment. 
2. Vivekananda Lecture Theater Complex is Asia’s largest. It has 40 lecture halls packed with modern facilities, and a capacity to house more than 5000 students at a time. 
3. The Technology Business Incubator (TBI) provides incubates and prospective entrepreneurs mentoring support in marketing, finance, business planning, branding, IPR, patenting, product development, and other areas.
4. Its core area includes Product and Process Design, Material and Process Innovation, and ICT Based Companies. 
5. The computer center contains 10 computer labs, open round the clock for students and faculty members. 
6. It also has a data center with Private Cloud using VMWare VCloud Suite 5 and 64 TB of EMC2 Storage. 

It’s modern infrastructure, top-notch faculty, and high placements have resulted in making MNIT a top engineering college. 

It's tough to choose between MNIT Jaipur Civil, NIT Hammirpur ECE, EE, or NIT Kurukshetra EE. The answer depends on your interests alone. However here are a few things you would like to consider

• Interest : This may not be the best criteria to determine the right branch because engineering students are mere class 12 pass-outs having no knowledge outside their PCM syllabus.
• Placements : If you are after hefty packages, then you will have to prioritize branch over college. Here is the preference order you can follow CSE>IT>Mech=ECE>EE>Civil
• Government jobs : If you are willing to work in the government sector or PSU, then NIT Kurukshetra is the right place for you. A lot of PSUs visit the institute every year. But here choice of branch and college both matters. The choice of the branch for this should be Mech>Civil>EE>ECE.
• Civil Services Preparation: If you are planning to prepare for Civil services, then choose NIT Kurukshetra over NIT Hamirpur because the workload is less and you will get a lot of free time to study. You can go for branches like civil, electrical, and mechanical.
• MBA : If you are planning to pursue an MBA then your branch doesn't matter. What matters is the brand of the college you hail from. NIT not only provides the NIT tag but also gives you enough time to prepare for the CAT.
• MS/Mtech/Research : If you want to pursue a career in research, or pursue an MS from a foreign university, then choose ECE. This field has a lot of scope in terms of research. 

Ultimately, the final decision depends on your inclinations and future prospects so choose wisely. 

Both MNIT and NIT Hamirpur are reputed institutes in India. Every coin has two sides, so you need to choose your path wisely at this point; otherwise, you will regret it throughout your life. Priority should be given to your interest in the subject. Now let's talk about the colleges.

MNIT Jaipur

• It is ranked 70th among the other Engineering colleges in India by MHRD
• The location is commendable, and connectivity to different parts of the nation is possible
• You can easily access all the shopping malls and famous shops
• The climate is very bad; it is difficult to tolerate the hot weather

NIT Hamirpur

• Ranked 59th among other Engineering institutions in MHRD
• Well-road connectivity, you can easily access to bus, trains, or planes
• The weather conditions are manageable
• This institute is situated in the foothills of the Himalayas. You can enjoy the beauty of lush, green nature. Here, you will have the best days of your life

 Therefore, NIT Hamirpur is a better choice than MNIT

Although both programs are offered by prestigious institutes, I prefer CSE at MNIT to electrical at IIT Mandi. Considering only the branches it’s not a brainer that CSE offers much better placement opportunities than Electrical. I am not saying IIT Mandi placements are not good, it's just that they cannot be compared to MNNIT CSE placements. 

I would suggest that you go for CSE at MNNIT rather than Electrical at IIT Mandi. Yes, you will miss the much coveted IIT tag but trading it with an NIT tag, better college life, and excellent placement opportunities is not a bad deal right? The moment you sit for placements and start receiving excellent packages in contrast to your counterpart electricals, you will realize how wise your decision to choose CSE was.
