Which is better: IIT-D electrical or IIT Madras electrical?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : April 14th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Both IIT Delhi and IIT Madras are highly reputed institutes, and both have excellent electrical engineering departments. It is challenging to declare one institute as definitively better than the other as both are highly regarded and have their unique strengths. However, here are some points to consider that might help you in making a decision:

In terms of faculty, both IIT Delhi and IIT Madras have highly qualified and experienced professors, who are experts in their fields. However, the research output of IIT Delhi's electrical department is slightly higher than that of IIT Madras.

In terms of infrastructure and facilities, both institutes are well-equipped with state-of-the-art labs and equipment. However, IIT Madras has a larger and more extensive campus, which includes several research centers and facilities, making it a hub for cutting-edge research in the field of electrical engineering.

Both institutes have excellent placement records, with several reputed companies visiting the campus for recruitment. However, IIT Delhi has a slightly higher average placement package compared to IIT Madras.

Choosing between the two ultimately comes down to personal preferences and priorities. If you value research and a wider range of facilities, IIT Madras may be a better choice. However, if you prioritize placement opportunities and slightly higher research output, IIT Delhi may be the better choice.

Which is better, electrical at BITS, Pilani, Goa or NIT, Calicut?

AS
Abhinav Sengupta Posted On : April 15th, 2021
B.E (Hons) Chemical Engineering, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani - Pilani Campus (2017)

If you are financially stable, then you should prefer BTS Goa. NIT C has gotten worse in the following years. 

In NIT C, the students of some branches are getting back and the percentage of those back students are almost 50%. The environment of NIT C is hard to sustain and after being a Govt. Deemed University the faculty and students do whatever they feel like. Like one of the professors was given a warning after he was found guilty because of sexual harassment. 

NIT is known nationwide for the quality of students. It's not the Institute that makes a good student, it's rather the students that make an Institute good. The same is the case with NITs. If you want to join NIT, choose NIT Surathkal.

So, BITS is also a better option as compared to NIT Calicut which is as prestigious as IITs. One of the locations of BITS is Goa, which is indeed a dream destination for engineers. You will enjoy studying there. 

NIT Calicut has the cons mentioned above but not all the faculties are the same. Some of them are highly educated and decent.

B.Tech Information Technology, Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata in 2020

Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata has a very good faculty for Electrical Engineering, probably the best in West Bengal. It has a very friendly environment which will aim to give you very promising college life.

This stream has been somewhat a new introduction to the institute. So in its early years, there was uncertainty in the placements. EE department fell short of the CSE, ECE, IT, AEIE. A lot of the graduates did not get placements by the end of their course.

In the last placement season, the highest package offered to the students was INR 16 LPA and the average package was INR 4 LPA. The top recruiters were TCS, Honda, Infosys, Wipro, etc.
