A friend of mine completed BTech in Electronics and Telecom from IGIT. Here are some of the things that he shared about the institute.
From what I heard, there is not too much pressure from Teachers. You are free to do anything. So, make the most of your time at the institute.
Since one of my sisters is a part of LNCT Bhopal, it is best to limit the answer to discussing it. As per what she mentions, LNCT Bhopal is a promising institute when it comes down to departments like CSE, IT, or ECE.
Here is a brief insight about the placement session conducted at LNCT Bhopal, as per the latest records:
Institute | LNCT, Bhopal |
Placement Percentage | 83% |
Highest Salary Package | INR 27 LPA (2020) |
Average Salary Package | INR 5.3 LPA |
Top Recruiting Companies | VMware, Microsoft, Amazon, Cognizant, Wipro, Infosys, TCS, Capgemini |
It provides very disciplined conduct of college life. However, it is best that you compare the prospects of both institutes and make an informed decision afterward.
Based on the reviews that I got from my friends at BITS Goa, I will suggest you take ECE, given the chance.
Well, it is true that ECE is new but the department for all the Electrical streams especially the ECE, ENI, and EEE is the same and so are the faculties. In fact, half of the EEE/EnI faculty at the institute have specializations in communication. So, there won’t be a lack of good faculty.
So ultimately what will finally matter is the course and looking at the present scenario even many dual degree students are choosing for ECE over EEE. Overall, it is a great branch to study.
One of my friends is a student of NIT Calicut and according to him, the CS department is the best in the institute. It is also among the top 3 CS branches in NITs.
Parameters | NIT Calicut |
Highest CTC | 49 LPA |
Average CTC | 11 LPA |
Major recruiters | AutoNinja, Bosch, Nokia |
Overall, NIT Calicut offers a great CS program.
IIT Madras does not offer B.Tech ECE. Instead, it offers B.Tech in Electrical Engineering. The Electrical Engineering department is one of the oldest at IITM.
Both these institutions are highly reputed in the field of engineering, and they offer equally good academics and placements. But I would recommend you opt for Electrical Engineering at IIT Madras since it has a bigger brand name and a richer legacy. Moreover, Electrical students at IITM receive even better packages as compared to ECE students at IIIT Hyderabad.
Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering is a decent choice to pursue in IET DAVV if you are looking forward to cracking GATE. This branch has a decent placement record too. The faculty of the department is quite good and will guide you with your GATE preparation.
However, if you expect core electronics recruiters, you will be disappointed. In campus placement drive, students of ETC branch mostly get recruited in IT companies or mass recruiters. Here are the recent placement highlights of the ETC branch.
Average CTC |
3.36 LPA |
Highest CTC |
20.5 LPA |
Placement Average |
90% |
Major Recruiters |
Nuclei, decode, Wipro, TCS, Infosys, etc. |
Hope this gives you an idea about the placements for the ETC branch.
I have a few friends from both Thapar University and LNM-IIT Jaipur and based on the reviews I got from them, I will say LNMIIT Jaipur will be a better option. Here are the reasons why.
Hence, LNMIIT is a very good place to pursue CSE, but a college is just a medium and it completely depends on how you can utilize your 4 years in the college. Your success will depend on your hard work and efforts.
I am yet to understand the blind passion people possess for the CSE branch including those who have no interest in the field whatsoever. Even if you have a passion for CSE, the NIT Rourkela is certainly not the right place to bring out your abilities in this field. The placements, undoubtedly, are excellent at par with some new IITs. bit NIT Rourkela lacks in other major aspects such as
Irrespective of the branch you go for between CSE and ECE, you will witness similar job opportunities and success rates. Most students get placed in huge firms like Amazon, Microsoft, and Samsung. So, choosing the right branch in your case depends on your personal preference and interests.
The better choice is undoubtedly EEE at BITS Goa than ECE at NIT Jalandhar.
NIT Jalandhar is still a developing institute whereas BITS Goa is a well-established institute that has got reputation all over the world. Most of the students have cracked competitive exams like GMAT, GRE, and UPSC, etc with a good rank.
You will interact with people who have appreciable knowledge and you will have healthy competition as BITS Goa don't have caste reservations.
Finally, if you can afford to join BITS then do it if not take a loan and don't worry about returns. You will get them in a year or maybe 2 years. Ultimately the choice is yours.
The ECE branch at IIIT Ranchi is not that good. IIIT Ranchi is also being shifted to a temporary campus in Ranchi very soon. In the new temporary campus, the distance between the hostel and the academic block will be 10-15 km.
It is very unlikely that IIIT Ranchi will have a permanent campus any time soon. So, it will be better if you don’t go for IIIT Ranchi.
