Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because my rank allowed me to take this branch. Our faculty is overqualified they are super talented. Our girls ratio is like 1:6. And if you want a good cg you must study daily for at least 2 hours.

I chose chemical engineering because it is a chill branch and I will get more time to study non-core. The faculty-student ratio is about 1:50. All faculty are phd. Exams are held 2 times per semester and there are 2 semesters in a year.

REVIEW BY A KGPIAN

4.8Helpful

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because I'm deeply interested in Chemical Engineering. Our faculty staff is so good and helpful. You can get help anytime from them for any of your personal projects. The student ratio is approximately 1:4. All faculty staff is overqualified and their teaching method is unique. After approx. every 1.5 months- 2 months. You have to deal with mid-sem and end-sem.

IIT Kharagpur: 1 Answered Question

Which is better, chemical at IIT Kharagpur or CS at IIT Mandi?

Aman SharmaB.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (2022)

Many students go through this dilemma after clearing their JEE Advance whether to choose Computer Science in a new IIT or to choose any lower branch in the old IITs. Following information can help you in taking the decision better:

In case if Computer Science is your passion and you feel joy by solving logical problems patiently, then without any second thought, you should go for CS at IIT Mandi. You can easily get a good placement there or even pursue your research work there.

If you are not well acquainted with coding then it is highly advisable to get exposed to it and then decide whether you genuinely enjoy it or not.

IIT Kharagpur is a good choice if you go for Chemical Engineering as it is one of the most reputed institutes of India. CE is in great demand and will also be in the coming years. The course of CE at IIT Kharagpur is vivid, meeting the industry standards. The curriculum of CE is easier as compared to other branches like Mechanical or Electrical Engineering.
You will have enough time and freedom to enjoy the college life and sharpen your other skills side by side which will eventually help you in getting jobs in the companies. Most companies call CE students for interviews and internships.
IIT Kharagpur has a better ranking than IIT Mandi, because of which, if you plan to pursue MBA abroad after your B.Tech, you will definitely be getting an edge.

The best part is that IIT Kharagpur allows you to change your branch at the end of one year. You can go for this option if you have scored a good CGPA in your first year but your change in choice should not be the sole purpose to join the college or the branch.

In short, I have discussed both the colleges (here IIT Kharagpur wins) and both the branches (here Computer Science wins). So, it solely depends upon the interests and priorities of the student whether to choose Chemical Engineering at IIT Kharagpur or CS at IIT Mandi. If you do not enjoy working with codes, then IIT Kharagpur will be the best option for you.
