Will the branch matter that we join if the college that we joined was NIT Trichy for having a safe future?

The majority of engineering aspirants are confused between prioritizing branches and institutes. They get confused about whether to go for an average branch in well-established institutes like old IITs and NITs or a top branch in average institutes like new IITs or lower NITs. 

I will suggest you go through the syllabus of the average branches once before choosing them. If you think the syllabus is intriguing and you can tolerate it for 4 years, go for it. Else go for the top branches. The first priority should be to choose CSE, IT, M&C, and ECE in the top 10 IITs or NITs. Next, you can opt for lower branches in the top 5 IITs and top 3 NITs.

Here are a few points to consider before making the final decision 

• The hefty packages offered by top IITs and NITs are usually from tech companies and the number of core jobs is few.
• If you go for electrical, or mechanical in lower IITs or NITs, you still have to learn coding skills to secure good packages. So it’s better to make use of the exposure and the college environment of top IITs, NITs.
• The top Top IITs and NITs have a much more elaborate alumni pool attracting the best companies.

So, I would suggest you go for top IITs and NITs because even if you belong to an average branch, inculcating excellent coding skills will fetch you good packages. Ultimately for me, it is Institute over branch!
