MSc in Chemistry at IIT Bhubaneswar is better, keeping in mind the quality of education that you’ll receive, and the reputation of the institute:

•  You can opt for a joint MSc+PhD in Chemistry if you want to pursue a more research-focused program. 

• We have regular workshops and conferences at our department, wherein MSc. and PhD scholars can actively collaborate.

• The Chemistry department of IIT Bhubaneswar is active in research in various areas like-

• Coordination Chemistry

• Molecular Recognition for the synthesis of Exotic Organic and Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Materials

• Magnetic Materials and Magnetostructural Correlation

• Catalysis for Fine Chemicals

• Design and Development of Metal Complexes towards Catalysis and Anti-Cancer Drugs

As you can see, all of this is high-impact and extremely significant.

Thus, I would recommend you opt for IIT Bhubaneswar over Hyderabad School of Chemistry, for an MSc. in Chemistry. 

I am a second year B.Tech Mechanical student at IIT Bhubaneswar. NIT Surathkal is a top ranked NIT, but joining Mechanical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar has its own advantages:

• One of the best things about BTech in Mechanical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar is that it welcomes interdisciplinary studies and extracurricular pursuits like athletics, music, dancing, fine arts, entrepreneurship, social work, projects, and internships. 

• The faculty and academic atmosphere of the Mechanical Department at IIT Bhubaneswar is very student-friendly. The department has excellent faculty members with expertise in core concepts as well as high-impact research in various specialisations.

Here is a comparison between NIT Surathkal IT and IIT Bhubaneswar Mechanical for your reference:

Out of personal experience, I can assure you that B.Tech Mechanical at IIT Bhubaneswar is a good choice in terms of academics and placements. Rest, the choice depends on your personal preference.
