I am opting for the core branches at IIT Bhubaneswar rather than engineering design at IIT Madras.
IIT Bhubaneswar's core engineering branches saw a placement average of 80.6% for BTech students and around 60% for MTech students, out of which, the Electrical Engineering branch saw a 100% placement record in 2020. Similarly, IIT Madras's Engineering Design branch saw an 83% placement rate in 2019.
The table below highlights the essential differences between all these programs:
