Which is better, IIT Hyderabad CSE or IIT Madras EE?

MB
Mansi Bhatnagar Posted On : February 29th, 2024

This question can only have a subjective answer. I have myself done my B.Tech EE from IIT Madras, but I would recommend you consider several factors before arriving at a decision-

Your subject of interest matters a lot, even more than your college. Make sure to select the branch that interests you. Take a good look at the curriculum and course offerings of both these options, and find out which of them aligns with your career/academic goals. Also consider the specialization opportunities offered by each option. 

Look at the research interests and projects undertaken by faculty members of each program. Realize whose interests align with you the most. Getting into research work at UG level will only be beneficial for you. Take a visit to both the institutes or consult some seniors to find out which one offers better infrastructure, campus life and other facilities. 

Personally speaking, I’ve had an excellent experience at the Electrical department of IIT Madras. So, if you don’t have a particular interest in CS, you may very well consider EE at IITM.

Which is better for electrical engineering: MNIT Jaipur or MNNIT Allahabad?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : October 19th, 2023

I researched on both the colleges, and here is my answer to your query-

MNNIT Allahabad is far better then MNIT Jaipur for Electrical Engineering. MNNIT has better placements and academics for Electrical branch. 

MNIT is situated in the middle of the city, so you can easily join coaching classes for GATE, ESE, and other competitive exams. But then, many students from MNNIT clear GATE, IES, Civil Services, etc. because of its academic friendly environment.

Both the colleges perform equally well in rankings. 

I would recommend you join MNNIT Allahabad for your Electrical degree.

How is IIT Bhubaneswar Electrical as compared to other new IITs like Mandi, Indore, Hyderabad, Ropar, Gandhinagar, Dhanbad etc.?

AR
Aikantika Roy Posted On : July 9th, 2021
Studied at IIEST Shibpur (2019)

Since my cousin used to be a student of IIT Dhanbad, I might be able to give you some facts about the college which might give you a proper insight.

  • IIT ISM was formerly known as ISM Dhanbad. It boasted of a rich legacy and an equally rich infrastructure which is not true for the newly established IITs.
  • IIT ISM is technically a new IIT but practically it is not.
  • Because of the IIT tag, IIT Bhubaneswar and a number of other IITs had a very low opening and closing ranks.
  • IIT ISM initially had a high opening and closing rank. Many candidates did not want to join IIT ISM even after cracking JEE.
  • Many major companies visited the campus of IIT ISM during placements.
  • The salary package has been going up and the number of companies visiting the campus has also been increasing.
  • Some of the big names are PSUs namely OIL, MECL, CIL, IOCL, BPCL, ONGC, etc.

Categories

IIT ISM

Course Fee

8.75 lakh

Highest CTC

12 LPA

Average CTC

6-7 LPA

You can get a good job if you go for IIT ISM, as good as a job you can get from its Bhubaneswar counterpart.

Which is better, EE at DTU or ICE at NSIT?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 4th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

There is no better branch between EE at DTU and ICE at NSIT. It's all about preferences and inclinations. To help you make an informed decision let's talk about both the branches individually

EE at DTU

  • EE at DTU is core electrical engineering wherein you are taught concepts related to power, grids, electrical machines, etc.
  •  For placements, core companies like BHEL and companies in the energy field visit the campus. 

ICE at NSIT

  • This branch has Control Engineering concepts along with electrical, electronics, and computer engineering.ICE has very light coursework and it's easy to maintain a good CGPA. 
  • You also get enough time for your passions and extracurriculars.
  • IT giants like Facebook, Google, etc. Don't allow ICE students to sit for placements. 
  • Core companies that recruit students of this branch include Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and others. 
  • Non-tech companies like BCG, Bain, and JPMC allow all students to sit for placements.
  • NSIT has a larger batch size and thus the competition here is less than DTU for placements but it still it cannot match the brand value of DTU.

In all, both DTU and NSIT have similar opportunities and placements so with the right mindset you can do well at both colleges.

Is it better to take metallurgy in NIT Rourkela or electrical in NIT Silchar?

RH
Rituparna Hazra Posted On : July 5th, 2021
B.Tech in E.C.E from National Institute of Technology Silchar (2020)

You need to compare the two universities to make a decision between the two. Having friends studying in both the institutes, I might be able to help you with the question.

Metallurgy at NIT Rourkela:

  • Campus-wise, the college has a very large campus.
  • But, if you are planning to pursue metallurgy, let me tell you that you will have lesser job opportunities in both the public and private sectors in India.
  • You might have to shift to another country to get a well-paying job and earn decently in your field of study.

Electrical at NIT Silchar:

  • There are also some really good facilities here including the largest digital library in South Asia.
  • The campus is really good too.
  • The placement records are amazing. Moreover, electrical is an evergreen branch with decent scope in the public sector. This would surely make a good alternative.

Which is better, data science engineering or electrical engineering at IIT Mandi?

SG
Sonam Gupta Posted On : May 26th, 2023
Studied B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi (2021)

Both Data Science Engineering and Electrical Engineering at IIT Mandi are excellent programs with their own strengths and unique opportunities. The nature and job opportunities of both programs are poles apart.

Data Science Engineering focuses on the application of statistical and computational methods to extract insights from data. It covers topics like probability, visualization, numbers, algorithms, and such.

Electrical Engineering on the other hand is related to the design and development of electrical systems, such as power generation and distribution, control systems, and communications. 

It’s better to research the curriculum and course offerings of both programs, as well as speak with current students or faculty to gain a better understanding of which program aligns best with your interests and goals.
