As a student of B.Tech ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar, I can shed some light on my department:

IIT Bhubaneswar holds the 47th position as per NIRF 2023 Engineering Ranking.

The School of Electrical Sciences is a very welcoming department at IIT Bhubaneswar. It is one of the fastest growing departments of our institution.

The department offers a 4-year B.Tech in ECE and a 5-year Dual Degree in ECE.

The Dual Degree program is more research-oriented.

Here’s a comparison between B.Tech ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar and IIT Dhanbad for your reference:

Parameters	IIT Bhubaneswar ECE 2023	IIT Dhanbad ECE 2023
NIRF 2023 Engineering Ranking	#47	#17
Placement %	90.91%	81.31%
Highest Package	INR 44.62 LPA	INR 56 LPA (overall)
Average Package	INR 22.85 LPA	INR 20.49 LPA
Top Recruiters	Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Samsung, Ernst and Young, etc.	Tata Steel, Tata Motors, Samsung, Walmart, Disney Hotstar

Though the choice ultimately depends upon you, out of personal experience, I can assure you that pursuing B.Tech ECE from IIT Bhubaneswar is a good choice. You’ll get a peaceful campus environment and qualified faculty at IIT Bhubaneswar. Otherwise, in terms of placements, both the colleges perform equally well.
