Which is better, a BTech in mechanical engineering from GEC Thrissur or BTech in safety & fire engineering from CUSAT?
There is no better course as the choice of a course depends a lot on one’s preferences and future prospects. You need enough passion to like a course because every course has its good and bad parts.
BTech in Mechanical Engineering should be considered only if you are interested in it genuinely because it’s quite challenging. BTech in Safety and Engineering is mistakenly considered to be the easiest BTech program but the reality is far from this. This course covers topics from Mechanical, Civil, and even Chemical. As a result, this branch ends up being the Jack of all trades but the Master of none. The students of this branch are capable of handling HSE in almost any type of industry.
The placements of the Safety and Fire Engineering program are decent despite the limited opportunities. Companies like Reliance, BPCL, IOCL, ONGC, and VEDANTHA make good offers here.
So my verdict is to go for Mechanical if you are sure about your interest in it else Safety and Fire Engineering is a good choice.
Which is better for a B.Tech/B.E. in mechanical engineering: Aligarh Muslim University or Jamia Millia Islamia?
Mechanical engineering is the broadest discipline itself and it is good at both Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) and Jamia Milia Islamia (JMI). For the research perspectives in any specialized subjects of mechanical engineering, AMU is quite good and for exposure or entrepreneurship, JMI is the better option having 10th NIRF rank among Indian colleges.

Should I take admission in mechanical at KIIT University, HBTI Kanpur or IET Lucknow?
KIIT will take all of your parents' hard-earned money. They will allow your entire batch to sit in some 2 to 4 average companies through campus placement, but if you want to work for any services-based IT company, you can get admission to KIIT. If GATE/IES/PSU is your goal, it is best to study in a college that is close to your home and has lower fees.
HBTI is the best not only in UP but across the country, with an excellent alumni base dating back to 1921. Each year, the best students from UP attend this prestigious institute.
IET is not bad, but when compared to HBTI, it falls short in terms of placements, alumni base, academics, and so on.

Which college should I take for mechanical engineering? I am confused among PEC Chandigarh, NIT Kurukshetra, and NIT Jalandhar.
NIT Kurukshetra or PEC Chandigarh are the best options for you. You can certainly cross NIT Jalandhar off your list.
The practical labs at NITJ are not well-equipped, and the majority of the equipment is broken. The faculty, on the other hand, is excellent. You should not make NITJ your top priority.
Which is better, FISAT or CUSAT SOE (mechanical)?
CUSAT SOE Mechanical is better than FISAT. It is among the most reputed technological institutes in the region. CUSAT offers excellent facilities and opportunities. The Mechanical department has a brilliant faculty base.
According to CUSAT placements of recent years, the average CTC for Mechanical branch is around INR 5 LPA. Godrej, L&T, Vedanta, etc. are among the core companies that recruit through the campus drive. PSU and IT companies also recruit Mechanical Students.
Which one is better for mechanical, IIT Bhubaneswar or IIT Jodhpur?
Mechanical at IIT Bhubaneswar and Mechanical at IIT Jodhpur both are well-recognized in India. However, the choice between the two majorly depends on your personal preference and career goals. If you will ask me I will say IIT Bhubaneswar is a better choice as it is known for its high standards in academics and research works.
- Opting for Mechanical from IIT Bhubaneswar is a better choice.
- IIT Bhubaneswar offers a BTech in Mechanical, a four-year full-time course.
- The total course fee for four years of BTech in mechanical from IIT Bhubaneswar is INR 1763520 Lakhs. With 82% being placed in the placement for 2023 and the media package being INR 12 LPA.
- Some of the top recruiters hiring from IIT Bhubaneswar are Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Amazon, and more.
Is it a fruitful decision to leave NIT Jamshedpur CSE for MNNIT Allahabad mechanical?
Well, it depends upon several factors. A few of them are as mentioned below.
- Where you possibly imagine yourself in the next 10 years and more?
- What has been the real motivation behind your aim for pursuing engineering?
- What is the time period you are willing to assign for reaching your goal?
There are other factors, or possible scenarios, such as,
- Cushy CTC: In this case, CSE will be better than Mechanical Engineering.
- Higher studies abroad: CSE and Mech both will offer similar opportunities.
- Competitive examination: In case you would want to take the UPSC examination, IES, PSU, or several others, choosing Mechanical will be better as compared to CSE.
- MBA from IIM: With regard to that, being a student from the mechanical department can give you an edge. As it will offer you diversity points. If however, your scores are low, then you will lose the edge.
- Work destination: If you want to work in Gulf in the future, then choosing Mech is better. If you dream of working in the US, CSE offers better options.
- If you have a natural affinity towards automobiles then go for Mechanical Engineering.
The above scenarios can give you possible average outcomes, but there can be vague contradictions as well. You also need to consider which subject interests you.
According to various student reviews, the preference order for CSE and Mechanical is MNNIT > NITJ. You should always give preference to the branch rather than the institute. Hope this clarifies most of your doubts.
